The US and Russia just hammered out an agreement that, when agreed to by Syria, could eliminate its chemical weapons stockpile by this time next year. Carrying that plan through to a satisfactory conclusion will be a challenge, though.
Who are the biggest winners and who are the biggest losers?
Weird. I don't see the Syrian people on the list. Seems like those not getting gassed would be the biggest winners.

I guess the loan elderly guy on campus mumbling "No war in Syria" all day is the biggest winner. Got what he wanted.
The Syrian people are the biggest loser, especially the 100,000 dead and their loved ones left to mourn their loss of life. Those who now suffer disabilities. There are other losers too but not what I would call the biggest. I don't think there are any winners.
I totally agree.
When the Syrian civil/religious war comes to an end there will be no winners.
the old days are always good, no matter how bad they were.They'll long for the days of being bombed, gassed and otherwise slaughtered. They'll remember with fondness the roar of the rifles taking dozens at a time. They'll languish in fledgling democracy, human rights and development projects. And they'll say, "ah, children, we lived in the good ole days!"
I really didn't like the idea of the US supporting the opposition, since so far as I understand, the opposition is....AQ.
Then again, I suppose it could be a nice branch of AQ....possibly...kinda weird though.
Yet, if they are moderate extremists...:mrgreen:30-75% of the rebels are moderates.
