#1 Nice heads-up, Fred. It is easy to dismiss pencil neck as a sideshow pawn, but without Syria, Iran's proxies have lost their main base of Opns - and Fudlullah Da Mullah becomes their pointman (do you agree?), there is no sanctuary for Ba'athists outside the Sunni Triangle, the support and distraction assets for the Paleos are severely reduced - putting them in the spotlight 24x7, and the overall terr equation does, indeed, become much simpler - at least regards primary funding... :-)

#2 Who, indeed, will take Mehlis's place? I nominate John Bolton.
