In ruins, Syria marks 50 years of Assad family rule

SSG Robert Mark Odom I've Already Thanked Dr Assad for Fixing Granny Sandy's Eye. The US Government and I Have Paid Him for His Services! Other than That, Now I think Sending Him Straight to Hell Would be a Blessing.

Reminds me of Detroit.

Maybe is CIA hadn't armed, funded and trained the FSA / ISIS the place wouldn't have been in Ruins. I have long questions whether Blow-back is a desired result of these operations, or the end goal.
