The Left on Syria

Let me say this: OK, he is right.  It is easy to argue that the Syrian regime is not Left and should not be supported by anyone on the Left.  But he conveniently left out the other side of the equation: that the Syrian National Council is NOT Left either, and should not be supported by anyone on the Left.

PS For the life of me, I don't understand (given what we know now), why anyone on the Left would be reluctant to criticize the Syrian National Council or any vehicle of the Ikhwan in Syria.
