Al-Assad is really not that bad, relatively speaking. But not a question about Lebanon, or Israel. <br/><br/>Interesting he answered "Moses, Jesus, Mohammed". Damascus used to be roughly 1/3 Jewish, 1/3 Christian, 1/3 Muslim. Thanks to declining birth rates among Christians and mass exodus of Jews to Israel/NYC, it is mostly Muslim now. Many of the Christians are immigrating to Europe as well. The media often make Syria or Lebanon look worse off than they are, but it is sad to see this formerly metropolitan state become another Islamic one. Al-Assad can only stall the eventual outcome.

I will be sure to visit again. <br/><br/>Good post on the Assad interview, by the way. I agree that reporters need to ask foreign leaders tough questions...I'm not quite sure why Sawyer chose not to.
