Syrian support for Terrorism
Since Syria is in the news a lot lately, I thought it would be handy to post these links which profess to describe the Syrian run terrorist infrastructure that supports almost every terror group in the region. Assuming this information is correct, Syria seems to me to be a lot like Pakistan, with anonymous intelligence agents and military men pulling the strings behind a multitude of terrorist groups that claim to act independately, but at best are kept on a tight leash by Damascus, and at worst are simply tools of that countries foreign policy interests.These articles are too long to post here, but if you are interested, you can find information on Syrian support for Hamas here. The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command and Islamic Jihad and finally Hezbollah They also sponsor an alphabet soup of less important groups like the PKK, PFLP, DFLP and Asbat ul-Ansar; but the aformentioned groups are the most important.
