I was in the Student Union building at college and we all had a jam session of all the tunes.

Damn it’s going to be my 45th high school reunion this year. And I haven’t gone to one yet. {#Lol}

And in 3 hours I got to go to a wake for my buddies dad.

What about the Syrian people? How many tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands or millions of Syrians are you willing to 'waste' in order to get Al-Assad out?

Must register for the Independent article. This one is gate-free:

Robert Fisk, veteran Middle East correspondent, dies aged 74 - Al Jazeera

âââââââââââââââ-

Big fan of Fisk.

Did not follow his writings on Syria closely but if he refused to demonize the Assad regime, then I agree. Demonizing Assad and pro-longing the civil war has resulted in all kinds of suffering. Not American or Turkish suffering. Syrian suffering.

Bashar Al-Assad didn't need demonizing by anyone. He's a stone-cold monster.
