Anna Glypta Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-20406562 Foreign Secretary William Hague has said the UK has decided to recognise the Syrian opposition coalition. He told MPs the National Coalition of the Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces was the "sole legitimate representative" of the Syrian people. He said they were now a "credible" alternative to the Assad government. Will this increase the pressure on Assad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Who cares? It's got nothing whatsoever to do with us. Clearly Hague has too much time on his hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L00b Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Will this increase the pressure on Assad?Maybe not, since the two largest Syrian fundamentalist groups (Liwaa al-Tawhid, Front al-Nosra, both salafo-dijhadists) challenged the SORF mandate yesterday, revealing a distinct, and non-trivial, political split within anti-Assad forces. For all the right and wrong reasons, it's a mess-in-the-making we're best steering well clear of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Are you aware of what the word foreign means? Indeed I am but is Syria about to threaten to attack the UK? If not why does the UK need to get involved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
