Plan A – Washington has placed a „highly classified“ request for the House of Saud to arm the rebels, as The Independent‘s Robert Fisk has advanced, without details (none available in Arab media, either). So essentially this would be – what else is new – history repeating itself as farce; a remix of the Ronald Reagan-era Iran-Contra scandal..

Then there‘s Plan B – the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) takes over to fight „crimes against humanity“ and „genocide“. Essentially this would be Kosovo all over again (make it history repeating itself for the fourth time).
