Not So Surprising For Real in Syria !!

Assef Shawqat is out of the military intelligence in Syria.
This news has been just posted this morning in All4Syria.info . Of course it is not a surprise to me or to anyone who is familiar with Syria and its politics whether in the past or the present. Last year there were reports published regionally and internationally that Al Assad had arrested his powerful brother in law who was once The inlaws thought to be the real ruler of Damascus. 
If this news published this morning is true then I suppose may be there is something true concerning the rumor last , may be Assef tried to play his game but he failed and Al Assads had save their throne but feared to announce it to the world , you can imagine the reactions from inside and outside. They decided to keep it quiet and play by their own way. If they got rid from Assef right away ,this would confirm the rumors , they would wait several months to dismiss him from his powerful position for good in a very calm quiet way.
This very early retirement for sure does not have many meanings in the Arab world.
Upates #1 : 
  • Here are the changes in the Syrian military intelligence  
  • Today the old building the ministry of tourism in Damascus was totally burned , today is a holiday in Syria of course. The building goes back to the 18th century ,it is old just like our Shura building still it is interesting timing for sure , to be on fire in the capital on the same day these changes are leaked , may be someone wanted to divert the attention of the Syrians.
Update #2
Here is an image from All 4 Syria for the fire of the ministry of tourism , it was a huge , of course the minister of tourism in Syria blamed on electricity as usual
