'Intervention will make Syria 10 times worse than extremist-ravaged Libya' (VIDEO)

Assad troops have made a strong push in recent weeks, and rebel leaders say they are in dire need of support.

They've already got al-Qaeda-linked militants and foreign mercenaries fighting on their side, and are now set to start getting weapons from the West.

Meanwhile, government forces have the backing of Lebanon's Hezbollah, and may soon get a four-thousand-strong troop reinforcement from Iran.

The British National Party's Nick Griffin was part of a European fact-finding delegation that's just returned from Damascus.

He told RT that any third-party involvement only aggravates the conflict.
