Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Iran is keeping a tight rein on Nasrallah and Hezbollah
2010-07-09
With aid from Iran, Syria has a factory producing M-600 missiles for Hezbollah. So is Assad really looking for a swift kick in the ass peace?

#2  Iran hasn't finished (although its well underway) paying for rebuilding Hezbollah assets destroyed in the 2nd Lebanon war. There are other civilian buildings that Hezbollah has promised to rebuild but no one really expects them to do so. Hezbollah has lots of other O&M costs for which Iran is paying.

All this while the Mullocracy has its own financial problems.

#1  Why doesn't Assad change the name of the country from Syria to East Persia? It would be more reflective of the reality on the ground. Maybe the national seal should be an image of Assad kneeling, kissing the hand of the Iranian President.
