Just days ago, Assadists thought they were approaching the end-game in Syria & began expressing concern about US partition plans. Partition is the quid pro quo for US involvement in the counter-revolution. Of course it should be opposed–not to protect Assad’s national sovereignty but to protect the revolution against Assad.

Khan Sheikhoun changes things. Assad stands exposed because they can’t even get their damn story straight. Syria says it didn’t gas civilians. Russia said Syria did bomb but gassed accidentally. The hired propagandists are all over the place. They aren’t looking at end-game anymore. They’re looking at a crisis for Assadism.
