While regional Arab leaders continue to call on Syrian leader Bashar el-Assad to step down, he is not signaling any indication of complying with such a request any time soon. Jordan�s King Abdullah II and Turkish President Abdullah Gul have repeatedly called upon Assad to step down; but Assad prefers to continue gunning down protestors while ignoring the international community�s voice, also calling for him to relinquish power.
In a latest turn of events, al-Arabia reported on Tuesday, November 22, 2011, that Hizbullah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah is preparing for the day after, simply stated the terrorist organization is making plans for a coup, to take over Syria if and when opportunity presents itself, basically if Assad falls, which many believe will occur sooner rather than later.� Reports from Syria on Tuesday state four more people were killed during the morning hours, including two children.
