Arab states should be doing more to hasten the end of the Syrian regime, former Jordanian Foreign Minister Marwan Muasher said at the Washington Ideas Forum today. "I think that everybody understands in the Arab region that this is over" for the Syrian regime, he said. "I will give it between 6 months and a year, but in the end no one in the region will be able to tolerate 30 deaths a day." Still, he predicted more violence. "The protesters are dead men walking right now," he said. "It is going to be bloody."
