And post-America is rendered even less relevant on the world stage

Charles Krauthammer says that the fall of Qusair on Wednesday to Assad's forces on Wednesday signifies a shift within the broad scope of world affairs.  Iran and Hezbollah have a strengthened hand.  Russia's Mediterranean port is assured for the time being.  A loser is Turkey, which had been siding with the rebels (and is now reeling from its own riots).

And the US?   Not even a player.
