Syria's Assad Warns against Military Intervention, Says Regime Is Not in Danger
(AP/Washington Post) Syrian President Bashar Assad said Sunday his regime was in no danger of collapse and warned against any foreign military intervention in his country as the regime tries to crush a 5-month-old popular uprising. In his fourth public appearance since the revolt against his family's 40-year rule erupted in mid-March, Assad insisted that security forces were making inroads against the uprising. Assad brushed off President Barack Obama's condemnation, saying it has "no value." "I am not worried about the security situation right now, we can say the security situation is better," he said.
