A young Syrian with whom I'm friendly and who keeps close tabs on events tells me that Assad is using his closest people - and even some foreign mercenaries - trying to control his security apparatus, which, in turn, controls the military. Assad is in pretty serious trouble. Which doesn't mean that he necessarily will be ousted.
