#2 Not soon enuff in any case, but my guess is the end of the Holocene.

#4 IIRC, the Taif Accord only requires partial withdrawal/redeployment by Syria of its many armed instruments of occupation. It also doesn't affect Hizb'allah. UN 1559, on the other hand, orders them all out.

So Baby Assad's only promising part of what's, and won't follow through on even that much. Surprised?
