Without stronger sanctions there is little that could sway Syria to alter the course of what is now becoming a civil war. Quite the ironic term, since there is nothing civil about it. Russia brings in around $700million in arms sales each year from Syria, and also use one of their port cities on the Mediterranean Sea. On an investment or market affecting basis, troubles in Syria might affect oil prices or shipping, but only if the conflict looks to spread. More importantly Syria is strongly aligned and supported by Iran, but if the situation changes more in Syria we may see more trouble from Iran; that would definitely impact oil prices globally.

Obama got his play book out on this call. So what is he up to now? Just think , if his idea doesnt work out he could always leave this mess for the next president to mop up. this administration keeps throwing shit against the wall to see what sticks.

Agree with warrenrial.

I also wish Obama would step down. Too bad that small countries can see 5% of the population hit the streets an cause the world to call for removing the leaders and the US has 110 million people demanding Obama step down,but, he will surely be there for 5 more years and no force on earth can stop it......

Note: Starting in 2012 an going forward those smart enough to use there feet and want out will see great hardships trying to get your funds out of the country.. Should have taken notice to my posts and our groups comments............ Aloha, pok

PS> Follow Buffet an Gates......... Talk of paying more Tax ,but, get yourself a Foundation ! There cheep an work !
