Zehra ELJ First what does it tell you that all people who fled war are against him ? It tells you that he is the cause of their suffering About the show ... Every one can make up stories and fake evidences I have been following the syrian war since the very beginning so could all the news, turtoment videos by saa , all the dead children all the people saying they hate assad , all the civilian building destroyed by regime are all just actors and photoshop ... I can't believe they actually convinced you that the dictator is the good side and the sunnis population that are against him are all terrorists. Media may lie and so do the journalists ... But can mellions of people decide make a lie and tell it to the world ? I doubt that

@@redone4637 i live in Syria LMAOOOO I know that Assad is good. People who fled support the FSA and say he is bad but only because his army is killing the FSA. And btw the FSA means free syrian army but they kill alawites so they aren't even there for "freedom" they are fake. Look at how beautiful Aleppo is turning after the liberation. And if Assad was that bad no one would vote for him. (He won the election in 2013 with above 80%)

SAMREZ-55 I'm syrian and this mostly accurate. The FSA in the first war was made up of defected syrian soliders who refused to shoot protestors. Even priminister riyad hijab of syria defected. But now the FSA is mostly crushed after 7 years of assad using weapons of mass destruction. Now the most powerful rebels are alquada rebels. So assad is responsible for the war and he is also responsible for crushing the syrian revolutionist rebels. And he is responsible for most of the casualties killed in the war because he dops missile bombs and barrel bombs on civilians populated areas and on your homes. My home was destroyed by a rocket from the regime.

It's too early to make documentaries or 5min summaries on it. We don't know who has what agenda. We can't afford to pick sides just yet by default because it could backfire horribly. The rebel groups have shown they can't be trusted and that they can't work with each other because they hate each other out of religious reasons too. Assad represents an old dictatorial cast of society but without him the country would fall into complete chaos. This 5min explanation is too shallow and it just draws a very naive line of dictator bad, civilians victims. History shows that this is very often catastrophically deceptive. So intervention in this situation could be the worst thing anyone could possibly do. IMO, at the end of this, we'll see 3 new small countries emerge just like in the balkans because you can't force ethnically diverse people to live under one roof.when the main force of oppression is gone.

+teako north I am confused by the bullshit that "the guardian" comes up with. Actually, the colonialist powers divided the middle east after WW2. France controlled Syria. Which is probably why it belongs to the nations that are the more fucked up ones. And no. Al Assad isn't even close to the most brutal force in Syria. Among the demonstrators, were also an offshoot from the Muslim Brotherhood - Al Nusra, a faction that has since pledged allegiance to Al Qaeda. So no, the demonstrations weren't that peaceful. It is unclear who fired the first shots. There are many sources that state the government forces did, others point the finger to Al Nusra. Either way, Al Assad's government chose to generalize among the rebels and saw no difference between them. Al Nusra masked its identity openly, as a democratic rebel group and was financed by the lovely and democracy loving CIA, together with other factions. The escalation of violence last year, in neighboring Iraq led to ISIS seizing large parts of Syria and the Syrian civil war became more complicated. There was division amongst the rebels so they joined forces under one flag: the FSA (Free Syrian Army), but where each faction have their own motives, objectives and alliances. Al Nusra, as a typical Islamist terrorist organization declared war on YPG (the Kurdistan based rebel faction that fights for a secular democracy) and ISIS (too similar to Al Nusra for both to coexist). They are also at war with the Syrian government, Hezbollah, Iran and Russia since a few months ISIS is a terrorist organization based on national socialistic and Islamist ideals adopted for guerrilla tactics. They are at war with everyone. They were primarily funded from Saudi Arabia before they received the PR they have today. FSA (except Al Nusra) are at war with Al Assad, ISIS, Hezbollah, Iran and Russia. You will find everything from secular rebels, fighting for freedom and democracy, to hardcore Islamist terrorists. YPG are at war with ISIS and Al Nusra. Not a rebel faction, they are a self protection militia, killing Islamist terrorists. The regime, Hezbollah, Iran and Russia are at war with the FSA and ISIS. Syria would have collapsed without Russia's intervention. Barrel bombs are dropped on enemy positions. Killing civilians in large amounts. CIA - fucking shit up, everywhere they go. The closest we get of the horsemen of the apocalypse in reality. Funded Al Nusra and other factions of the FSA in the beginning of the conflict. The anti- ISIS coalition - a coalition with different agendas. USA bombs ISIS and Al Nusra (which they used to fund). Saudi Arabia funded ISIS and are now supporting their defeat, still funding Al Nusra. Turkey are bombing the YPG. Out of over 70 coalition members, only 11 are bombing something. Out of these, the targets can vary a lot. It's a mess. And as always, we, the west are on the wrong side. Instead of funding the only group that have a similar ideology to us (YPG), we funded the FSA, which includes allies of Al Qaeda. As of now, the best for Syria would probably be to let Al Assad seize power again.

I think it’s disingenuous to say that this crisis started out as a “pro-reform protests”. It was never a “protest” movement. From the very start it was a violent insurgency. There was never a period when “pro-reform protestors” conducted peaceful protests against the government. The crisis began when pre-positioned militants began attacking the government, under the cover of a few isolated “protests”, which were strictly for show, and photo opportunities. There never was a widespread set of popular protests: i.e., large groups of people walking in the streets, sit ins, or peaceful demonstrations. There were mob rallies, and “flash rallies” which were highly coordinated, utilizing a core of “protestors” who were moved around in buses from protest to protest, just for the photo opportunities. The media implies that the average Syrian took up protest signs and began marching in the streets spontaneously. This is one of the big lies that underpins this entire crisis. It’s a form of creating a history that never happened.

Exactly... the US starts conflict like this, pitting groups against each other, they basically supported the militants, just like they support the neonazis in Ukraine. The maidan coup was US supported
