I’ve seen info that Assad is Alawite, an ultra-Shiite religion, which is about 10% of Syria’s population of Sunnis.So this rebellion is partly due to fighting amongst Islamics.and like north Africa and Egypt, very convenient to make a way for the Muslim Brotherhood to gain entry and add to the Jihad to re-establish the Ottoman Caliphate. -any government that practices human atrocities and abuse is headed for history’s ash-heaps…..given time…but to replace one violent regime with a new, stronger and more violent regime is IMO satanic insanity.-plus, with Assad controlling WMD of biological and chemical weapons, why can’t the UN or NATO figure out a way to bribe or threaten Syria’s supporters…Iran, Russia, et al……and stop both sides?
