  1. Sorry but this is why I never condemned Assad. He was quite literally Syria's best option. If you preface everything by saying "he's bad" you give his opposition space to claim they have good reasons to overthrow him. We all know what happens post-Assad...Libya 2.0

  2.  @KernowDamo  I suppose so, but I see no point in pointing that out when the intended goal is to bolster support for him to stay in power (to avoid another Libya situation). It seems similar to denouncing Hamas, done for optics and credibility in the neoliberal lens— but, notably, not for achieving any practical political solution. If we're going to purity test everyone, then I expect everyone to precede any statement about Egypt, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, or Eritrea with a full-throated endorsement of collapsing their governments, too. Instability and the resulting suffering be damned, they're bad guys who've gotta go! That's all that matters! It's a ridiculous, tunnel-vision view of politics and I don't understand why it gets trotted out against anti-Western states only.
