I'm Predicting:

Several months ago I predicted that Syria would convict Mohammad Haydar Zammer, a dual citizen of Germany and Syria.

Haydar Zammer knew and associated with Mohammad Atta while in Germany. The Germans arrested him, but did not have enough evidence to try him.
After 9-11 while traveling in Morocco he was picked up and sent to Syria to stand trial. The arrest was probably done at the urging of the United States.

Haydar Zammer received a lenient sentence, he got 12 years.
He admitted to being a member of The Muslim Brotherhood, a crime which is punishable by execution in Syria, because The Brotherhood wants to oust Assad.

Syria has a strong hatred for the US and Israel.
Despite that they must protect the regime especially from Sunni religious extremists and terrorists like Al Qaeda and The Muslim Brotherhood.

As Machiavelli said: "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
If only for a split second.
