Free Syria Official: Hezbollah, Iran and Tater Helping Assad
2012-05-29
"... Assad is receiving increased assistance from Iran, Hezbollah in Lebanon and from Iraqi fighters loyal to Shia leader Muqtada al-Sadr. In addition to the advisors the Iranian Quds Force has sent, they also sent technological assistance, says the opposition leader."

The anonymous official also reports that many Syrian Pro Assad troops have been killed by other Syrian Pro Assad Troops.

#5  Hmmm, if the money is coming from Iraq, it is turn about fair play, after all of the grief Syria caused Iraq during the CPA days....

I suppose somewhere Maliki is cackling over the turn of events.

#4  It is surprising, Bill, with regard to Iran since they're struggling for cash.

But with Sadr involved I suppose the bulk of the money is actually coming from Iraq.
