An insurgent army which claims to be up to 15,000 strong is being coordinated from Turkey to take on President Bashar al-Assad of Syria, which risks plunging the region into open warfare.
The national "Syrian Free Army" aims to be the "military wing of the Syrian people's opposition to the regime", its leader told The Daily Telegraph from a heavily guarded camp in eastern Turkey.
Activists inside Syria and in exile say the state's backing of an Arab League plan to stop seven months of violence will be tested over the weekend with demonstrators attending rallies across the country. The European Union also called on Damascus to honour the terms of the Arab League deal, which president Bashar al-Assad's government said it would implement in full.

They now have access to a Rothschild controlled central bank as well as cutting edge wepaons. Id say Iraq is "IN". If they arent, then where is their support for their Iranian brethren? Trust me, they didnt forget what happened 30 years ago either.

You know.. that's really not fair the more that I think about it.
They say that we live in fear because of terrorists, but we don't. Imagine your fear if you lived in a country that had two nuclear armed countries constantly threatening to preemptively strike! That kinda sucks for the innocent population of Iran.

45,000 Soldiers are to be retained in Iraq? What blog did you pull that number from? It's total BS.
Obamas plan is to have all military, with the exception of Embassy personnel, pulled out by years end.
There will be however a large number of troops in Kuwait and off shore.
