Countries kicking out Syria's diplomats over massacre....
« on: May 29, 2012, 08:17:36 AM »
    Australia today ordered two diplomats, including the most senior Syrian diplomat in the country, to leave within 72 hours, reports the AP.

    Francois Hollande announced that Syria's ambassador in Paris was also being booted from his country, and noted that the decision followed discussions with David Cameron and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, reports the AP.

    So it's no surprise that Britain is expelling three Syrian diplomats; Germany, Spain, and Canada have revealed they will do the same.

    A few hours later, the US joined in. Though Syria hasn't had an ambassador in the US since 2011, the State Department announced that the charge d'affaires at the Syrian Embassy has been given 72 hours to leave, reports the AP.

Anytime you're an embasador of a country, and the country your in hands you your passport and tells you to leave, it's going to be bad.

No big point. Just thought it was a significant development.
