#4 ION TOPIX > RUSSIA: ANNAN IS ASSAD'S LAST CHANCE.

Looks like even pro-Assad Mama Russia has a limit???

* SAME > HEZBULLAH WANTS TO REMOVE FAR-REACHING SCUDS [SCUD-D's + AAMS/ADMS] FROM SYRIA, to Lebanon.

* SAME > US SAYS MILITARY INTERVENTION IN SYRIA "WILL LEAD TO GREATER CARNAGE" [ +
"greater chaos"].

* SAME > US REMAINS COMMITTED TO NON-INTERVENTION IN SYRIA.

versus

* SAME > HILLARY: RUSSIA'S STANCE [anti-Foreign, UN intervention] ON SYRIA COULD LEAD TO CIVIL WAR.

* SAME > IRAN: WESTERN INTERVENTION IN SYRIA "UNACCEPTABLE".

Iran sezzes it will resist any outside intervention in Syria agz its BFF Assad by any + all means necessary.

* WAFF > WSJ: NOTE TO SYRIA INTERVENTIONISTS - BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR [youse just might get it]. Baby Assad's + Regime's "doomsday option(s)".

Aka "Mutually Assured Destruction/Annihilation", sub-aka "iff I do down, I'm taking Everybody + Everything in ME wid me", e.g. Turkey, Cyprus, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, + Hezbollah = Lebanon, etc. as Syria possesses a very large arsenal of SSMS + also the ME's largest stock of ChemWar, + possibly also BioWar, Weapons.
