Dan Snow - The History of Syria
This is already being condemned as 'anti-Syrian' by people who are determined to believe that the only thing which matters is Iran. If you're one of them, please watch this to the end. He's condemning of Bashar's regime, but who wouldn't be if they actually cared about what happens to the people of Syria, rather than directly ignoring them in favour of a long-term apocalyptic vision that affects Iran.
I'm prepared to say now that there won't be a NATO war against Iran within the next 20 years. If I'm wrong, I'll be the first to (sadly) admit it, but the idea that the Neo-cons would need to get rid of 'the threat of Syria' before they could attack Iran is just nonsense.
