It doesn't look like Assad is doing himself any favours :nope:

Syria accused over attacks on Saudi and Qatari embassy


Saudi Arabia has condemned an attack on its embassy in Damascus by supporters of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
The Saudi and Qatari embassies were stormed by crowds after both countries voted to suspend Syria from meetings of the Arab League.
Saudi Arabia accused Syria's government of failing to take sufficient measures to stop the attack on its building.
The Arab League vote came after Syria failed to end a violent crackdown on opposition protesters.
Syrian authorities said the vote violated the league's charter, and accused it of serving a "Western and American agenda".

Is this a pretext to take concrete action against Syria? Words only mean so much.

I honestly can't see any of Syrias neighbours taking any military action, nor the west atm for that matter....so what happens next if anything is anyones guess.

In many ways I reckon the Arab League is actually hoping Syria will be able to quell the dissent, as there are couple of other countries which could erupt into more vocal and violent protest if this goes on much longer.

Could possibly be right but the whole area is a bomb waiting to go off.

Which country will be the fuse?
