The EU is now allowing member states to provide arms to the Syrian opposition.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-22684948

This will undoubtedly end up supporting Al Nusra the Al Queda affiliated group.

Whilst some may argue that this will help them get rid of one dictator the reality is that it will lead to a mssive sectarian war between Sunnis and Shia's with the net result the civil war will spread into Lebanon and Iraq.

In Iraq it has just had it's worse month for sectarian attacks ( nearly 1000 killed in a month).

Syria is the main area for anti western jihadis to travel too. It is bizarre that the west is now going to arm people who are on terrorist tours to Syria.

Ultimately it is all about destabalising and marginalising Iran ( and will also affect Hizbollah in Lebanon).

Israel will be rubbing it's hands in glee and the poor people in Syria and Iraq will be sacrificed for the sake of western interests in it's geo- political game.

Tony wouldn't have been pussyfooting around like the present incumbent.
His God would have sent him into 'Christian battle' and Syria would have been sorted now just like Iraq innit?

To be fair, I think the intent is to use this as a diplomatic ploy to try to get Assad to negotiate.

Not that I don't believe everything relayed to us by our mainstream media. :D

A recent rare Assad interview for proportionalitys sake...

So the Syrian government says it's happy to negotiate, unconditionally.

The opposition forces aren't interested. So they're the ones we're backing. Sounds about right.

Presumably they'll have to sit an ATOS appraisal to determine whether they deserve to be given free guns?

Maybe the EU judge that it is in the people's of the EU's best interests if Islamic sects get wrapped up fighting each other than attacking Europe? Personally, I think that would be a very valid stance. After all, no one is forcing them to attack each other. If they choose to act in such a self-destructive fashion that's up to them.

Doesn't Hezbollah support the Assad regime? If its a proxy war, its not just the EU that are using it as such.
