The Middle East is on the brink of all out Civil War, said Syrian President Bashar Assad. In Lebanon Hizbullah is gearing up to fight the democratic government, in the Palestinian territories if scheduled peace talks fail Hamas and Fatah are ready to go to war. Someone will gain from these conflict the Saudi's fear that Iran may act on these conflicts to grasp hold of power in the region.
"With the prospect of three civil wars looming over the Middle East — and Iran poised to gain from them all — Saudi Arabia has abandoned its behind-the-scenes checkbook diplomacy and taken on a central, aggressive role in reshaping the region’s conflicts," said the New York Times. If the Saudis are unable to take control of the region, Syrian President Bashar Assad is ready to do so.
The Syrian leader told ABC News that he is ready to sit and talk with the United States although he lacks confidence in such talks. He does not think that Washington will consider meeting although it could be the "last chance" to avoid civil war. Assad feels that the Presidents administration does not have the will or "vision" for peace in Iraq and the region. He pointed out, that the President father had the "will to achieve the peace in the region."
Assad said Syria could play an important role in "supporting the dialogue between the different parties inside Iraq with the support from the other parties like the Americans and the other neighboring countries..."

The region is a powder keg ready to explode at a moments notice. The countries heading towards civil war really need to resolve their conflicts before the race for power grows to--imperialism, which is what will happen. As these countries begin to engage in Civil War, we will begin to see the Iranians, the Saudis, and the Syrians taking an active role in these areas and one force will over take the rest. We could experience another power like the U.S.S.R. The one I am describing, a superpower controlled by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is far more dangerous than U.S.S.R. ever was.
What do you think?

Ahmadinejad is all smoke and no action...he is only the President; he does not run Iran, the Prime Minister does. I believe Ahmadinejad will not be re-eleted in 2009, and Iran will prove to be an illegitimate threat at most
