So even though we've gotten bored with their uprisings after Libya made it not fun, the people in the Middle East will just keep doing it? Syria will not fall, but it will destabilize. This is good news and bad news for Israel. The good news is that the conduit of weapons and support may dry up if Syria begins to crack down on what it perceives as threats from within, like militants. The bad news is that destabilization will embolden and perhaps make it easier for militants to move weapons and cash about.
