Syria instablilty

Not only have the eruptions in Egypt been a concern for African and Middle Eastern stability, but also the events in Syria. In Syria the regiem consists of a elite minority whose policies have created much disent among the population. Their relationship with Hezbollah and Iran creates much concern over the the power balance in the middle east. Their relationship to funneling recruits into Iraq, and being used as an ideal recruiting ground for other terroirst groups in the region is what makes the result of the turmoil in Syria so substantial.
