Tribal Leaders Band Together To Oppose... Damascus Dictatorship?
55 tribes form "Party of the Nation," supposedly, to oppose the drooling submoron Basher Assad.
I certainly hope there is no covert US assistance for this dastardly attack on Assad's personal sovereignty.
Because that would be wrong.
More... I think this falls under the category of "informed speculation," but it's still speculation. DaveP says he'll be adding this to his post: the likely culprits here opposing Assad (assuming this is real) are tribal cousins of the Iraqi Anbar tribes, and this may (repeat, may) be a welcome ripple from the Lost War in Iraq.
