Gulf states pulling ambassadors from Syria

KUWAIT CITY -- The six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council says it is pulling its ambassadors from Syria because of President Bashar Assad's refusal to accept Arab attempts to end the country's bloodshed.

Tuesday's statement from the GCC says the withdrawal of the envoys will begin immediately. It comes as many European nations also withdraw their ambassadors.

On Monday, the U.S. pulled its embassy staff from Damascus.

The GCC statement was carried by the official news agency in Kuwait, one of the GCC states. The others are Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and the United Arab Emirates. It also says the countries are asking Syria to recall its ambassadors.

I don’t think it’s a matter of “is it coming.” I think that it’s already here, it’s just a matter of perspective. From one perspective, our frog friends are telling us that we should be grateful that the “spa” is hot and luxurious. From the cook’s perspective… another 10 minutes and we’ll be dinner.
