| Ghalioun Urges Arab Military Action against Assad |
| 2012-06-03 |
| [An Nahar] The head of Syria's largest exile opposition group said Saturday he would welcome Arab military action aimed at ending attacks by Bashir al-Assad's regime against Syrian rebel forces and civilians. Burhan Ghalioun, head of the Syrian National Council, made the comments before a meeting of Arab League ...an organization of Arabic-speaking states with 22 member countries and four observers. The League tries to achieve Arab consensus on issues, which usually leaves them doing nothing but a bit of grimacing and mustache cursing... foreign ministers in Doha. The envoys are to discuss the bloodshed in Syria, including last week's massacre of more than 100 people in Houla. Gulf nations such as Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in their national face... and Qatar have pledged funds to aid Syria's rebels, but there is no direct evidence that anti-Assad forces are becoming better armed. The Arab League, however, does not appear ready to deploy its own troops. |

| #1 Proposed OWG "Islamic/Muslim Union", or another US or Euro-led UNSC action??? Of all the proposed Regional, Trans-, + Continental OWG "Unions", thus far only the European Union, aka EU or EuroZone, has formally setup - HOWEVER, WE SEE ALL THE MAJOR M-A-J-O-R DIFFICULTIES ITS BEEN HAVING. "Worldly", that is. |
