Whatcha gonna do about it?
Hillary Clinton shook her finger at Bashar al-Assad from Lithuanian on Friday. "They must begin a genuine transition to democracy and allowing one meeting of the opposition in Damascus is not sufficient action toward achieving that goal," Clinton, standing beside Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite, told reporters.I guess she means 'organized resistance' by brave Syrians and not by the US or its NATO allies. And that makes her statement meaningless - there's nothing backing it up. How does she know what the 'organized resistance' is planning?
"So I am disheartened by the recent reports of continued violence on the borders and in Aleppo, where demonstrators have been beaten, attacked with knives by government-organized groups and security forces," she said.
"It is absolutely clear that the Syrian government is running out of time. They are either going to allow a serious political process that will include peaceful protests to take place throughout Syria and engage in a productive dialogue with members of the opposition and civil society, or they're going to continue to see increasingly organized resistance."
She talks the talk but she doesn't walk the walk.

Can't look to NATO to do this, because Obama is breaking NATO. How can this happen so fast, in just 2.5 years?
