COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT
"Bows to
Assad"?
Totally stupid piece of propaganda.
Assad is the elected president of Syria.
His government is the legitimate government of Syria.
In international affairs, you either comply with the norms
or you do not, in which case you become a pariah state.
The norms include complying with legitimate government
requests such as this. Passports, indeed, are the property of the issuing
governments.
God, it is difficult to believe I am not looking at The News
of the World here.
