The one in the grey shirt, with long hair, was sure it was a lad, the french chick who asked a question was alright, but then she is french, its the law.

Thought it was going to kick off with those two blokes in the audience, its great when people have a pop at each other rather than just the panel.

Here we go theo's bootstrap stories

Quite why Oborne decided to try and win the argument with a point about the Roman Empire when he's taking to an expert on it, I've no idea. That doesn't strike me as a particularly sensible idea.

Victoria Coren saying its 'not complicated' and that there should be intervention in Syria was ludicrous. It IS complicated.

Syria firstly is closely aligned with Iran, Russia and China. It has ties with Hezbollah and some Palestinian militant groups. There are still outstanding issues with Israel. It has an army of 220,000, one of the largest in the Arab world and a strong air defence system.

There are two groups in Syria - the Alawi Shia community, which is the minority sect - and the sect of Bashir al-Assad.

And the majority Sunni population, Sunnis make up the majority of the opposition.

Most Alawis support Assad, and Sunni middle-class, businessmen support the regime as they have been doing well and have profited under the regime. If a Sunni government come to power - then the Alawis fear massive reprisals against their community and could be wiped out.

It is a tinderbox situation, and there is no stomach in Washington or London for a fourth battlefront - after Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. And due to the geopolitical and geographical position of Syria, there is potential for a massive Middle East war. Syria is no Libya - so Victoria Coren was totally wrong on that point.

Syria was on the PNAC list over a decade ago, was it not? Therefore I wouldn't underestimate any such appetite for action.

Thanks for the links.

I don't think there will be overt military action, certainly not in Presidential Election year, but covert action such as supplying the rebels with weapons, giving them diplomatic assistance. Saudi Arabia and Qatar are two countries, with the approval of the US who are doing so.

The Gulf is anti Syrian because Syria is allied with Iran and also houses Hezbollah. By getting in a new pro American, anti Iranian leadership is obviously advantageous.

The US has played a role in funding opposition groups according to Reuters and Wikileaks.

Quote

(Reuters) - The State Department has secretly funded Syrian opposition groups, according to diplomatic cables released by WikiLeaks, The Washington Post reported on Monday.

The cables show that the State Department has funneled as much as $6 million since 2006 to a group of Syrian exiles to operate a London-based satellite channel, Barada TV, and finance activities inside Syria, the Post said.

Barada TV began broadcasting in April 2009 but has ramped up operations to cover the mass protests in Syria that began last month as part of a long-standing campaign to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad the Post said.

The U.S. money for Syrian opposition figures began flowing under President George W. Bush after political ties with Damascus were frozen in 2005, the newspaper said.

The financial backing has continued under President Barack Obama, even as his administration sought to rebuild relations with Assad, the Post said. In January, the White House posted an ambassador to Damascus for the first time in six years.

The article said it is unclear whether the United States was still funding Syrian opposition groups, but the cables indicate money was set aside at least through September 2010.

An uprising against Assad's authoritarian rule have spread across large parts of the country. Rights groups put the death toll at more than 200 people.

Unmarked NATO warplanes are arriving at Turkish military bases close to Iskenderum on the Syrian border, delivering weapons from the late Muammar Gaddafi’s arsenals as well as volunteers from the Libyan Transitional National Council who are experienced in pitting local volunteers against trained soldiers, a skill they acquired confronting Gaddafi’s army. Iskenderum is also the seat of the Free Syrian Army, the armed wing of the Syrian National Council. French and British special forces trainers are on the ground, assisting the Syrian rebels while the CIA and U.S. Spec Ops are providing communications equipment and intelligence to assist the rebel cause, enabling the fighters to avoid concentrations of Syrian soldiers.
