Iran’s Leader Orders Murder of Protesters in Syria
Ever since the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Syria has proven a staunch ally to the radicals ruling Iran. It has also provided a passageway for the Revolutionary Guards into Lebanon and the Palestinian territories, arming Hezbollah and Hamas.
The Revolutionary Guards also have several bases in Syria, where they train and arm militias in the expansion of their terrorist activities in the region and beyond.
The Obama administration has substantiated charges of Iranian complicity in Syrian repression. On April 26, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice announced that the United States had evidence of active Iranian support for the Syrian government’s suppression of the peaceful demonstrators.
For its part, the Syrian opposition has also claimed that members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards have participated in the shooting and killing of the Syrian protesters. (See exclusive video of Syria’s uprising here.)
But the leaders of Iran know full well that they have the power to prevent the opposition from succeeding. The fall of Bashar al-Assad’s government in Syria could be a devastating blow to the policies of the radicals in Iran and its proxies in the region, and the mullahs are determined not to let that happen.
Stop incriminating Iranians by saying “Iran’s Leader …”. Say Shiite Leader in Iran. Give him the correct respect. To each his own.
OMG!!!….what respect??? the kind they show to each other??? let them kill each other off.. Good riddance to bad bad rubbish.
What are the chances that the head of the Islamic snake-Iran’s leaders-can’t be decapitated by US forces?
Slim to none.The real relevant question is -why are they still breathing?
Nothing is new in the Arab countries. The only way they know to resolve their disputes is by force. That is going on for hundreds of years. All the nice western slogans about democracy, free election miss the target. The Arabic tradition is much stronger than all the new waves in the region.
It not just Arab countries. Venezuela is apparently getting in on the action.

He shall be awild man. His hand shall be against every man.
Too few have commented on the courage of the Syrian protesters. These are people who know what their chances of survival are, and know they are alone in the world, since the US is no longer in the freedom business. I feel sorry for them. People who are willing to die for liberty deserve more.
BTW, I doubt if that story about training camps for middle east terrorists in Venezuela is true. The story says the prospective terrorist flies into Caracus or Bogota. Flying into Columbia to train in Venezuela is nuts, nor does flying middle eastern terrorists to South America make much sense.
you actually expect rationality?
please take a look another look at the people you are talking about..
The arab youthe ,specially in Syria, are teaching everybody the real meaning of freedom. They certainly do not resolve to force, but only receive bullettes. you will not be able to see their noble and brave nature if you are a slave to your hate against the arabs.
