The Russians are determined to stand behind their man. Neither they nor he
seem to have any Plan B other than further resistance to the rebellion. They
should do. For a while last year – even when they bombarded Baba Amr to
smithereens – it was possible to believe that brute force would succeed.
By all accounts, the commanders who would have to give such orders to their
men in the future are heading for the hills and the Turkish border. If the
president’s brother-in-law is not safe, which general is not looking over
his shoulder?
