And, Just In Case You Thought We Were At War With The Muslim World ...

... we find out it was Barzini all along:

Russia, China warn West against Arab interference

Russia and China oppose outside interference in the unrest in the Arab world, the two presidents said on Thursday in a declaration, as the West seeks their support for increasing pressure on Syria.
 
"The sides believe that the search for settling the situation in the countries of the Middle East and North Africa should take place in the legal field and through political means," said the declaration signed by Presidents Dmitry Medvedev and Hu Jintao.
 
"Outside forces should not interfere in internal processes in the countries of the region."

Rather, the conflicts should be solved by "launching broad national dialogue about rebuilding stability and social order and the promotion of democratic and economic reforms," the statement said.

The two presidents also expressed concern over the situation in Libya, calling for an end to hostilities between the forces of Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi and the rebels.


 Russia has said it opposes the UN Security Council adopting any resolution on Syria, risking a major dispute with the West over the response to the crackdown on Syrian protestors.

They are worried as hell, that if Syria goes, the result will be worse for them than us (Egypt in reverse), and that means a tougher road for Iran..the real piece they want to save.
However, we should all remember that in 1982 when daddy Assad killed 20-30k people in HAMA, who were revolting, they were MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD. They will be the only beneficiary. This is being totally misread as some power thing among great powers by Rus and China. IT IS NOT

Allow me to restate this in a way that I believe is close to absolutely accurate.

China and Russia are using the ME nations as a weapon against the US in order to decrease American hegemony.

It is a easy weapon for them to use, because we stand willingly right in the line of fire.

Would you agree with that?
