So a capitalist and a communist and a feminist and an Imam walk into a bar in Doha...
And two days later France has recognized them as Syria's "government in waiting"!
Things sure do move quickly when the big dogs decide to get 'r done, don't they? It was barely two weeks ago that Hillary called for a shake-up of the Syrian opposition, and here we are; not only is the opposition "shaken-up", it has been totally remade to Washington's liking. Every one of the four leadership figures is a person comfortable taking orders from Washington, and not a one of them commands a single armed fighter in the country.
Yet they are the government in waiting, and were recognized as such yesterday by the GCC and the Arab League, and today by France. Hollande and France's master humanitarian BHL have been eager to get the humanitarian bombs dropping as in Libya. It won't be long now.
And while in the immediate post-election blush of goodwill it was almost thinkable that America might sit this invasion/occupation out, a higher profile for the butcher Assad and the noble efforts of the Nations of Virtue to save the people of Syria might just be what's needed to get America's horny Generals off the evening news.
