Not all of the rebel groups are Jihadists. I'd prefer that the regime falls and the Jihadists don't gain control. But I have little faith that a moderate group would survive long in power.

Interesting developments. Syria has delivered its list of chemical weapons. Then Asaad went on T.V. and said that the disposal will take a year and cost a billion dollars. Then basically said if the American's want it so bad they should pay for it and bring the Weapons to America to dispose of it.

Meanwhile the UN defended its report blaming Syria for the Sarin attacks to which Putin yelled out "You lying lyers", then he did a happy dance and extended two middle fingers to Obama.

(Ok the last part is an exaggeration, he didn't do a happy dance)

Also interesting is that it is quickly becoming a three-part war. ISIS (Al-Queda linked) is fighting with the FSA (Moderates) in the north.

Also interesting is that Turkey shot down a Syrian Helicopter that was on the Syrian side of the border. There was a retaliation of a car bomb in Turkey near the border.

The UN blamed who for the attacks? I thought I read the UN team couldn't find who used the chemical Sarin just that they confirmed it had been used which was a pretty useless confirmation.
