    Take a look at a map and see where Syria is located and then it will make sense.
    If the BBC propaganda machine was working you'd think it was Thatchers fault

    Not looking good. Israel has bombed Damascus overnight (2nd bombing raid in recent days).
    Could well kick off big-time - will that be welcome news to those caught in a civil war? Or will it make matters a lot worse?

    BBC News - Damascus military facilities 'hit by Israel rockets'

    Right so it's a turf war between east and west to get their mitts on the oil.

    So why do the yanks want to topple Assad? Putting in a Muslim brothers super power gives the east the upper hand no? Or is it some puppet regime like they did in Iraq?

    Obama administration toppled Gadafi to liberate his weapons for use in Syria by the Muslim Brotherhood to in turn topple Assad.

    Question 1) Is this around about what happened, or some conspiracy theory?

    Question 2) Why do the yanks want Assad out?

    Question 3) Why do the Ruskies want Assad in?

    Question 4) Should I bleed the radiators?

    I have been far to wrapped up in work and messing with my Raspberry Pi to pay any attention so need help here.

    Thanks in advance. <inserts head back in rectum>
