A Look At Democratic Destabilization in Syria

Joshua Landis at Syria Comment.com points to two articles in LeMonde Diplomatiqueabout Syria that offer interesting perspectives on the political and diplomatic status in Lebanon and Syria and the U.S' destabilizing policy toward Syria.

Economist Samir Aita's article is headlined "Syria: a Monopoly on Democracy." Walid Charara is headlined "Constructive instability," which suggests that "The United States seems stubbornly determined to extend its current high-risk strategy of democratic destabilization to the entire Middle East."

See Mr. Landis' analysis of these articles.
