Obama s regime change policy in Syria

The Nation
by Robert Dreyfuss

08/13/12

The Pentagon, the State Department and the CIA are making war plans for Syria. And they?re pretty much announcing them. Over the weekend, on a visit to Turkey, a NATO member, to meet with Syrian opposition leaders and Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, the Turkish foreign minister, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton explicitly declared that Washington s policy toward Syria is now in what she called the 'operational' phase. ... Make no mistake: this is regime change by force. It s not exactly like Iraq, and it s not exactly like Libya (yet), but it s regime change by force anyway.
