Wouldn't it be more fruitful if the President called ASSAD?
After all Assad is an intelligent man, highly educated - a doctor. Negotiation is the best way forward. A deal could be that Assad moves to London with a handsome salary. An apartment in Knightsbridge perhaps? Then take care of his henchmen. You would then see progress.

Sure, he'll trade a palace for an apartment. That should do it.

3. He's also a psychotic despot

Mengele was also a doctor and pretty damned bright.

I don't think Assad would take the deal to leave in any case, it would make him look weak kind of like the deals that were apparently offered to Saddam Hussein and Mohamar Gadaffhi at several points in their "careers".

6. Actually

I think he may take the option of a nice life incognito. Even 'rent a dictators' retire.

Dot forget to throw in a pony...

5. Too civilized. Not enough brown people die. Not enough profit replacing the bombs, bullets and such.

11. Yes, because Barack Obama hates brown people and wants to kill as many as possible.

Jesus, do you people ever listen yourselves and realize how stupid and deranged you sound?

12. Assad wants to be President for life. There's nothing to negotiate. nt

14. How could you possibly know that?

Rosa must be an drug addicted/dain bramaged Occupier, No one else could be that pathetically naive/stoopid.

You don't realize it, but they are essentially correct.  Baraka Milhous Amin doesn't give two craps about anyone not in a position to further his quest for the American Fuhrership.

Them?  No.

We here, laugh constantly.  You are all (D)eranged.

I noticed that in 2001. Once again way ahead of the DUmmies.

And in a year and a couple of months they will be (D)reigned.

Hopefully.
