#1 To me, this seems to be a potential powderkeg. If the rebels decapitate his kinfolk that means war. And a stated religious sect war at that.

With what the UN commissioner said, Assad has nothing to lose. Neither does Nasrallah. Pencil Neck and Hassan can make a pact to first clear the rebels and then turn around and clear out Lebanon. The Turks won't go against their best interests.

#2 "Solve your problem with us but to take the innocent people hostages for this problem is a big injustice that you must put a stop to."

How about killing innocent Israelis? Does that count, too?
