A glimpse at Manaf Tlass--the possible new leader in Syria

Bashar and Tlass together during better days
A Word in the Tlass Departure
This blogger thinks Russia and the West made a deal to get Tlass in power.
"Something stinks to high heaven. First there is the defection of Manaf Tlass, a Republican Guard General, son of Mustafa, the former Syrian defence minister under Hafez Assad, and friend of the latter's son, Bashar.
In one news story I heard Tlass referred to as a member of the Damascene "aristocracy", and then we hear reports that Michel Kilo gives a radio interview to a Russian station saying that Tlass is an acceptable head for a transition government. "

Others say it signifies the beginning of the end. Many opposition activists detest everything he stands for. I have tried to collect a cross-section of views on him"
