#1 What incentive does Assad have to follow the Arab roadmap? Did they offer him anything in exchange??

I suspect that the Saudis have offered Assad asylum in Bahrain or possibly free passage to Iran if Assad goes with dialogue and is then overthrown.

However, Assad may think he can get to Iran even without this deal or he may think that the Persians won't be able and willing to protect him.
