A conference called by Special Envoy Kofi Annan to end the Syria crisis
appeared "on the brink of failure," with the U.S. and Russia still divided over a
role for Bashar Assad in a transition government, AP reported
today. Russia has refused to back a provision in Annan’s plan that would call
for Assad to step down to make way for a unity government, a stance that could
derail the entire plan.
Annan’s proposal would have created a transitional national unity
government comprising of pro-government as well as pro-opposition members to implement an
ambitious timeline ending the fighting and preparing the country for a peaceful
transition to a post conflict period of national reconciliation. Presence of
Assad in a transition government, presumably as its head, would be
unacceptable to the opposition.

The end days are closing in on Assads regime.
And Rostam Qasemi the hillbilly is calling OPEC for a emergency meeting.
The regimes foreign policy is falling to pieces with Assad hanging on to dear life and the Hezbollah in Lebanon soon to be disarmed because of no Assad regime to threaten Lebanon.
The cozy little world of the mullahs is soon coming to an end.
LOL!
