SouthAmerica: It is time for Brazil to take side on this new crisis regarding Syria.
Brazil should back up Russia and China in an effort to stop the UN from using its rogue army (NATO) from destroying the entire infrastructure of Syria as they have done in Libya.
Brazil has a dog in this fight, since over 10 million people who live in Brazil are descendents from Syrian/Lebanese people.
There's a strong human connection between Brazil and Syria.

US and Russia clash in UN Security Council over Syria – January 31, 2012

SouthAmerica: Quoting from my article published at Brazzil magazine:
“...The Summit has many objectives. The most important is a reciprocal re-discovery of two regions with historical affinities and a vast but yet unfulfilled potential in the field of bilateral relations.
Looking to the past, the contact points between the two worlds date back to the Arab presence in the Iberian Peninsula. Human ties between both regions have grown more intense over the past century through migration flows toward South America, which have made a valuable contribution to the social and cultural development of an important number of countries in the region. Today there are over 10 million people of Arab descent who live only in Brazil, not to mention the many South American migrants, particularly Brazilians, that have recently gone the opposite way in search of a new life in the Middle East.
Looking to the future, what we aim at is a partnership between two regions that face similar challenges in the struggle for development. The obvious diversity of their national situations, identities and levels of development does not prevent them from sharing common goals and interests. Countries from both regions share a common vision of peace and economic development with social justice, they base their actions on the respect for international law and multilateralism, they fight for an inclusive, tolerant, multipolar world more conducive to development.”
Yes that's right - it's imperative for Brazil to help prop up unelected mass-murdering totalitarian dictators! I'm sure the Syrian-descendended Brazilian population will be supportive of further massacres and repression of their brothers and sisters back in the homeland!

I just received an email from a reader saying that my posting about “Brazil and Syrian/Lebanese connection” had been published at the Russian newspaper “Pravda”.

Exporting Revolution: The Dangerous Game of Regime Change – February 1, 2012
So has revolution become a product? A commodity? Something that can be branded, packaged and exported all across the globe? And if so, what are the consequences for the US? The business of exporting revolutions and fermenting regime change is a dangerous one... so buyer and seller might want to beware.
SouthAmerica: The United States is becoming like a joke to the rest of the world regarding the hysterical public reaction of Susan Rice and Hillary Clinton after China and Russia vetoed over the weekend a UN Security Council resolution that would have backed another regime change in the Middle East in this case calling for Syria's President to step down.
Here is the reality that the rest of the world is watching and realizing the declining power of the United States and its allies:
Pepe Escobar: US will continue to arm anti-government rebels in Syria after veto – February 6, 2012
Note: Based on their reaction after the vote about the UN Security Council resolution regarding Syria - I would recommend that Susan Rice and Hillary Clinton ask their doctor for a prescription of Valium and Prozac to calm them down, since these women went ballistic.
