Syrian regime enters the babes war

In a sign of progress, pro-regime Syrian demonstrators are putting women front and center. And, this time they're smiling (before and after pics). And even look happy. Perhaps a transfer of values is taking place. Perhaps the Syrian regime has learned a lesson from Saddam's manipulation of religion and is trying a different tactic.

Lebanon should take heart; imitation (pic) is the sincerest form of flattery.
