The Syrian crisis - Gulf States will pay the price
Dr. Ghada warned that Gulf countries in support of a military strike against Syria will soon pay the price of their aggression.
 
Speaking on Russia's proposal to put all of Syria's chemical weapons under the control and patronage of the international community, Dr Ghadar noted, "while this proposal is acceptable there would need to be guarantees put in place which ensure that no military strike will be therefore carried out against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Moreover the West would have to stop supporting terror groups and militias in Syria."
 
Agreeing with experts, Dr Ghadar confirmed that indeed Russia had given the US a lifeline and an honorable exit from its rhetoric of war. 
US President Obama has been seen back-peddling on Syria as the magnitude of the task ahead daunted on him. 
 
Dr Ghadar explained that US officials are very aware of the fact that a war in Syria would not only lead to heavy casualties on both side but could very easily degenerate into a regional conflict if not worse.
 
Dr. Ghadar called for a political solution to the Syrian crisis, in keeping with international laws. He warned that a strike against Syria would ignite the whole Levant -- Lebanon, Jordan and even Iraq -- He warned that Gulf countries would not escape the fallouts. "There will be a price to pay," he emphasized.
 
Dr Ghadar foretold that should the US intervened directly in Syria, "Gulf States would break out in flames and Western economy would collapse under its own dead weight. Russia would have to intervene as Syria represents too much of geostrategic advantage ... Russia would defend Syria as it would its own territories ... Just as Iran would. Iran is a staunch allies of the Syrian regime and its understands that through Syria, Washington is looking to weaken its power in the region. The Hezbollah too would stand by Syria, the whole region would go up in flames over Syria."
