In Syria, unity proves elusive to oppositionforces:
...
The U.S. plans to step up its efforts to work with key backers of the opposition -- such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and France -- to build a stronger command structure. U.S. officials specifically applaud the efforts of several military council commanders who have tried to foster unity, such as Col. Abdul-Jabbar Akidi in Aleppo, Col. Afif Suleiman in Idlib and Gen. Ziad al-Fahd and Col. Khalid Alhoubos in Damascus.
...
Unfortunately, the rebel military council leadership was not included in the Doha effort. Military leaders such as Akidi thought they would be invited, but the invitations never came. This has added to demoralization. ( I underlined).

This is a huge mistake and will be
problems, because military is instinctively institution
of " command and order". knowing most majority of
FSA revolutionary are defectors, or if not some kind of military
style of compliance background, even FSA et al
not a normal military in this context but they are
still follow their commanders, their loyalty is not “hotel leadership” but to their commanders
and their comrade on the ground sharing
for hardship of unspeakable war. They are not only fighting but also they managing liberate
areas as well and they know the people and the ground( I saw them barking breads and collecting rubbish too for the towns). I am not sure why they have not been invited by the
Doha meeting. They are the key players on the ground and they are paying their
blood for the revolution. Without sincerer inclusive leadership, the new opposition leadership will
be difficult to control the ground revolutionaries, that is why they called prior or new opposition leaderships as "
hotel revolutionary" "who does do
you think you are!" that kind of attitude. The new leadership's top down old mentality, can not command people's hearts. They should going for
"people's hearts" not their heads. I personally have seen so many organizations were ruined because of old archive pieces mentality, they don’t know what is wrong with their thinking because they don’t know any
other way. But effective successful leadership must earned people's love. People are not stupid, in this revolution, if leadership more of power mongering-hungry( which old SNC failed) instead of, their sincerity, ready to sacrifice for their revolution as the FSA revolutionary et al are doing under ground
they will be faces a road block.
I don’t consider,
in my view, I don’t think extremists is not a big problems, yes if continues
world not intervene and left it as its own course yes it will be naturally, but
it is small minority and they are having very good relationship with FSA revolutionary,
after all they are very humanistic in Syria, they care Syrian people and very
skilled fighters and they love martyrdom which is
not FSA pieces of cake. Circumspective
the world discrimination but in Syria, while the world dumb deaf blinded, they
offers their hearts and expertise specialist skills to Syrian people. If FSA revolutionary (leadership)
is the part of new opposition leadership and restore their truly respective
military position and dignity( now they are more than just military but heroes of all trade!) as they deserve,
with money and weapons, that is not only
the revolutionary wining strategy but also
solving the world extreme-extremist phobia too!
