The shitstorm in the middle east won’t go away, now in Syria the “brutal” Asaad regime has been toppled. We are told that this is a good thing because the Syrian leadership was in cahoots with the filthy Russians and the dodgy Iranians and because Asaad himself was a bit of a bastard. But honestly, was he any worse than the oil gangsters in Saudi? And who are the rebels that have ousted the old guard? Searching my memory, wasn’t it Islamic State (so called) when this blew up before? Have people forgotten the last time the west celebrated a middle eastern dictator being removed things soon got a whole lot worse.
