The imaginary "Syrian revolution" in the mind of Liz Sly

There is an imaginary "Syrian revolution" in the mind of Liz Sly, and no developments on the ground can disabuse her of fantasy.  Her "revolution" is secular, feminist, democratic, and moderate and all information about it is exclusively released to her through the propagandists of the Free Syrian Army.  If there is one Western correspondent who was more wrong on Syria than any other, it is this correspondent. Just go and track her writings on Jamal Ma`ruf or about Free Syrian Army role or about Salim Idriss or about the various gangs that sprung up in Syria.
