Terrifying, indeed...
Syrian Prime Minister, al-Otri, quoting a recent speech of the Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs, about the fact that a Kurdish state would be a "red line" for Turkey, stated that it would be a red line for Syria, too... Well, we shoud be seriously afraid if we remember the numerous battles that Syria had won since its foundation... Especially during the glorious war of Kippur, when Syria should let a part of Golan, but proclaimed in all its official media that it was a victory, and decreed a national holyday for it... We should add that a very few number of Syrian batalions don't use to bolt at the first Israeli shot ... and even Arabian batalions sent against Kurds by Saddam had shown more often their back than the white of their eye to peshmergas...
