EMERGENCE OF NEW ISLAMIC RESISTANCE

Vladimir Ahmedov put my feelings for the last year in words...
One side of me is saying the west and other powers opened the box of Pandora by leaving Syrian people into the hands of butcher Syrian regime opening the way to the ultimate Islamic Resistance in the world.
Other side of me is asking are they so fool to give way something they would not like to face, meaning that they intentionally did this.
Neither side gives a perfect reply to make me understand what is/was in their minds?

The Syrian war gives birth to a New Islamic Resistance?
Since the last three months the developing events in Syria have proved the considerable growth of popularity of the so called Islamic Brigades (ISIS, JAN, HASI, Sukur as-Sham, Liw’a al-Islam, Liw’a at-Tauhid, SIF, SILF, etc) in their different specters from hardliner extremist to light moderates among many locals at the expense of “secular” rebels from FSA loyal to SMC and SNC due to their “soft power” tactic of socializing local population in liberated zones to force them accept their political programs and ideological doctrines, as well as because of their military advantages in fighting Assad’s army.
Thus we witness the birth of a New Islamic Resistance with its genuine political culture, political goals, ideologies, social base, military tactic and regional strategies that have began since the early summer 2012 and differ from the “Old” Islamic Resistance represented mainly by HAMAS and Hezbollah sponsored by IRG.
That is why may be one of the reasons pushing Hezbollah to fight so fiercely in Syria is that they understand that they fight not only for Assad, but for their future survival as organization of Islamic Resistance given the fact that the very idea of an “Old” Islamic Resistance was ruined with the first shot made by Hezbollah fighter in its Syrian brother and then buried in AL-Qusair.
On the other hand the latest diplomatic maneuvers of a new Iranian leadership over possible ways to dissolve Syrian crisis may show their latent aspiration to win this New Resistance (at least some parts) over its side by intercepting an initiative from Turkey and the Gulf States, first of all Saudi Arabia.
But, if Hezbollah, Iran, Israel, other regional players seems, see the emergence of this new reality, it’s still a big question does 5 “Big Bosses”, sitting in UN SC arguing about a next Syrian resolution understand what their countries will face with in the near future? Hope they do.
