On Syria's New President, Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa (Another Hussein, Just What We Needed), Having a Dubious Track Record at Best (a Former Member of al-Qaeda, it Appears) but Because the Western Media Has Put Such a Strong Emphasis On Assad Being the Very Personification of Evil They're Kind of Soft-Peddling the Miscreant's Prior Exploits
