Why the neocons have such an allegiance to al Qaeda I do not know, but the fact is that they are for the most part very emotionally invested in seeing al Qaeda come to power in Syria. The fact that al Qaeda supply lines have been disrupted, and its hold on some important areas has been loosened recently is causing panic among the war maniacs.

It is a highly ironic situation in which a pro-capitalist, secular leader (Assad) is pitted against ultra-radical terrorists supported by Western conservatives.
