Imperatives don't work with Syria

UN: Syria Escalates Repression After Security Council Statement | Human Rights Watch: "(New York) – The United Nations Security Council should press Syria to comply with the council’s demand to end attacks against peaceful protesters, Human Rights Watch said today. Syria should comply with the Security Council’s August 3, 2011 statement, which also called on Syria to cooperate fully with the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), which has been investigating the abuses in Syria."

Syria is proving intractable and immune to every mechanism of international persuasion. This bumps up against the reality of the democratic revolution in progress. In such a test of wills, the only way to help is to spread word of Syria's acts which are criminal and deserve punishment at the Hague. When the word becomes impossible to ignore, the tide will turn and the defeat of Assad and his minions will be merely a matter of time.
