The new leader of the Syrian National Coalition

This new leader, Anas Al-`Abdah, is prefect for the Qatari and Saudi regimes. He is an expert in anti-Shi`ite Islamist agitation and is the author of the famous report on the Shi`itization of the Syrian Sunni population.  Media of Saudi princes was quite happy with his elevation.  Having said that, please continue to follow the lead of Liz Sly and refer to Syrian National Coalition as "secular".
