Well none of that actually happened.
None of what happened, shit for brains? FYI - I am FROM the mideast, have tons of family there across the region, and know more about it than you could in 100 ******* lifetimes.
First most Syrians support Assad.
Uh, no they don't asshole. They simply prefer him over ISIS, but that does not mean that the 85% of the country who are sunnis would not remove him in a ******* nanosecond if they could.
Whose ******* payroll are you on, idiot?
We started the war to drive the Russians out of the Mediterranean.
Syria's Civil War Explained
"That March, peaceful protests erupted in Syria as well, after 15 boys were
detained and tortured for having written graffiti in support of the Arab Spring. One of the boys, 13-year-old
Hamza al-Khateeb , was killed after having been brutally tortured. The Syrian government, led by President Bashar al-Assad, responded to the protests by killing hundreds of demonstrators and imprisoning many more. In July 2011,
defectors from the military announced the formation of the Free Syrian Army, a rebel group aiming to overthrow the government, and Syria began to slide into civil war."
Syria: The story of the conflict - BBC News
"Pro-democracy protests erupted in March 2011 in the southern city of Deraa after the arrest and torture of some teenagers who painted revolutionary slogans on a school wall. After security forces
opened fire on demonstrators, killing several, more took to the streets. The unrest triggered nationwide protests demanding President Assad's resignation. The government's use of force to crush the dissent merely hardened the protesters' resolve. By July 2011,
hundreds of thousands were taking to the streets across the country. Opposition supporters eventually began to take up arms, first to defend themselves and later to expel security forces from their local areas."
Syria has a stable society with many ethnicities all living peacefully.
You have ABSOLUTELY NO ******* CLUE WHAT THE **** you are talking about.
The Structure of Syria's Repression
"For years, Bashar al-Assad’s regime subjected Syrians to a routine of good cop, bad cop. Maher al-Assad, President Bashar al-Assad’s brother and the head of the brutal Republican Guard, has played the bad cop. Although Maher was not seen much in public, he established a reputation for brutal repression. The good cop, ironically, was Bashar al-Assad himself. Educated in the West and an ophthalmologist by trade, he projected an image of benevolence, wearing blue jeans in public and, in a
Vogue profile of his wife this past February, boasted of driving through Damascus without any security.
That same
Vogue article referenced the well-manicured fingernails of Assad’s wife, “lacquered a dark blue-green.” In mid-March, the focus shifted to the hands of 15 children in the southern Syrian city of Deraa whose nails were removed by torture. Their crime was scribbling the famous words of the Arab Spring -- “The people want to bring down the regime” -- on their school’s wall, an act that began the ongoing Syrian revolt against Assad.
Syrian officials have echoed other Arab regimes under duress in claiming that Syria’s protesters are overwhelmingly Islamist. Although the majority of the protests did start in mosques, this is solely because mosques are the only places where people can gather without arousing suspicion. In the city of Deraa, both Christians and Muslims have participated in demonstrations. On March 23, the main church there was opened to receive the injured after security forces stormed the main mosque and surrounded the hospital.
Minority groups have also joined in the protests en masse. The city of Salmiya, populated by a large percentage of people who follow the Ismaili faith, has witnessed broad-based demonstrations. Many Druze in the city of As-Suwayda have staged mass protests, and even secular Alawite figures are aligning themselves with the protesters, including Aref Dalila, a professor and former dean of the economics faculty at Damascus University."

It would be best if you just STFU and left this thread. If I suspect you are a paid troll/putin/assad boot licker, this will get ugly VERY quickly.
