What
would happen to Syria and the region if the Assad government were to be put
down by international force is evidently a current events topic.
Some
on thinking along the lines of chemical and explosives weapons proliferation.
Others wonder if the Alawite might retire to Iran and become a new minority in
greater numbers. Yet it is reasonable to consider that the Alawite might seek
to upgrade their living status with waterfront property and the Lebanese
highlands perhaps with hegemony over adjoining areas of Syria.
I
believe one possibility is that Syrian government personnel might flee to
Lebanon and expand the Hezballah presence perhaps converting that state into a
new, armed and radicalized synthetic Shia-Alawwite state while Syria would be
taken over by the Muslim Brotherhood and those farther to the right. Prince
Bandar bin Sultan-former ambassador to the U.S. and a member of the global plutocracy
has ideas about it. As a Sunni state affiliate under the influence of the
Wahhabi and Saudi royals it is uncertain that it would be more stable that it
was before the civil war started.

Global
fracking may have altered the timing of the Hilbert Curve on world peak oil
production and combined with a transition to ecospherically less harmful
electro-magnetic transport Saudi oil wealth power may stabilize rather than
increase proportionally. Some of course wondered if U.S. interest in Persian
Gulf oil in the era before fracking led to mid-east policy that favored regime
change in Iraq.
