Fenris Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I've been to Syria a few times in the past 10 years. It's a very interesting place. Since the last Asad died they've started to clean the place up and it's alot more pleasant now than 10 years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tag I fail to see how Mexico can be considered a dictatorship using any reasonable definition of the word dictatorship. This is particularly true given the fact that the opposition party won the last presidential election. But even under the pre-Vicente Fox PRI government, calling it a dictatorship is really stretching the definition of the word. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
