Elliot Abrams wants the US to side with the Syrian rebels
and adroitly ensure the revolution goes to acceptable, Israel and America-friendly,
democratic secularists instead of the Muslim fanatics, enemies of both Israel
and America, who actually seem to comprise or dominate nearly all of the
opposition.
Westerners seem never to give up this fantasy of somehow
handing Muslim revolutions against relatively anti-Islamist governments over to
sweet liberals who want and love what we want and love.
The press was full of this stupidity in the days of the
Revolution of the Ayatollahs.
People this stupid should not be allowed their own
checkbooks, let alone to meddle in politics and wars half way around the world.
How did the relatively secularist, modernist faction defeat the Islamist democratic revolution in Algeria?
By revoking it.
By scuttling democracy and imposing dictatorship at the cost of an incredibly bloody and long civil war.
