No agreement? Yeah, that's real shocking. Spain's bond yields are still falling, but I'd expect them to start spiking again in a few weeks once investors realize the trouble hasn't gone away.

You've mentioned that you believe that Assad well eventually be forced to step down, but he still has a chance of staying in power. How can you be sure the awakening climax won't end in a mass slaughter, similar to Burma or China?
