Actually, people like you were howling "Qaddafi is scum" when Libya was under attack as you are howling now "Assad is a ....." while the imperialists are ready to jump on Syria. People like you are actually pseudo supporters of imperialism and its attacks.
Now, kindly tell me whether you support the intervention in Syria by "international community" or not. If no, then first say "imperialism, hands off from Syria" and later shout your anti-Assad rhetoric.
hahaha, you know me, selling arms to the NTC and the Syrian opposition like the counter-revolutionary I am
I don't.
Why, when both are threats to the working class? Why can't I "decry" (over the internet, lol) both sides of the same bourgeois coin?
You can. Opposing imperialism is a part of that, since imperialism allows al-Assad and others to posture as "anti-imperialists," since it allows bourgeois nationalists and other opportunistic forces to be seen as heroes by the populace at large, and since it further strengthens the influence of, in this case, US imperialism and plays a contributing part in any coming inter-imperialist war.
During WWI people were imprisoned not just for opposing imperialist war in principle, but actively advocating revolutionary defeatism and working towards that end within their own countries regardless of how "barbarous" or anti-communist the other countries were, and that was an inter-imperialist war, not a case when one imperialism seeks to exert control and influence over another country against the interests of another (Russian) imperialism which seeks the same. In these cases proletarian internationalism entails opposing the imperialist interests of both states and for founding a Syrian communist party (or movement in your case, I suppose) for raising the consciousness of the Syrian proletariat.
As the Bolsheviks used to say: it is up to the working-class to overthrow their own bourgeoisie on their own initiative.

Beg to differ a little with you on this point. Workers don't have any country at all, therefore own initiative means initiative of world proletariat i.e. those who are willing to assist the workers of Syria can take part.
Imperialists at present are much more united and so we have to be too.
are you 12, an idiot, or a troll? i can't really wrap my mind around what makes you tick. you post some hilarious lysenkoist bs, downplay homosexuality, and now this. where do they make people like u

I have some of my own thoughts in this regard. If that doesn't fit your box size brain, I am helpless. When Islamist fundamentalists are working cross border in close connection with each other, then you are finding my posts "hilarious". Actually, the basic difference between you and me is that I want to do something in real and want to change while posting threads in websites is enough for you.
(Don't ask me what I have done so far, I am not obliged to report that to you anyway and I don't want to share that on net).
Seems like this is going to be a long drawn out war with the rebel forces having just enough support to sustain their resistance
Can the rebels actually win against the government without outside support?
The will to win is worthless if you do not have the will to prepare.
Both parties are subservient to the Syrian government and in the 1950's-80's followed the Soviet line. They split in 1986 because one faction was enthusiastic about Gorbachev and the other was more critical of his policies. I doubt either holds any particularly revolutionary inclinations.

[Saudi Arabia], together with the regime in Qatar, is creating a $100 million fund to place Syria’s “rebels” on their payroll. This formalizes the status of the armed groups known collectively as the Free Syrian Army as a mercenary force in the pay of the right-wing Gulf sheikdoms allied with US imperialism.
