" ......President Bashar Assad still enjoys from the population, including many in the majority Sunni Muslim community.

Syria's conflict is often portrayed through one of its many prisms — that of a sectarian struggle, in which overwhelmingly Sunni Muslim rebels seek to topple Assad, who belongs to the minority Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam. The country's rich tapestry of Christian and Muslim minorities, meanwhile, help keep Assad in power, fearing their fate if he were to fall.

Without Sunni support, however, Assad's rule would have collapsed long ago amid a civil war that activists say has killed more than 160,000, displaced at least a third of Syria's prewar population of 23 million, and destroyed wide swaths of the country.........
If only minorities were loyal to Assad, they (rebels) would have taken the country," said Wida Saleh, a 35-year-old lawyer and Assad supporter who reluctantly identified herself as a Sunni Muslim.

"But because the majority (Sunnis) are standing behind him, they have kept Syria standing," she said at a voting booth set up in Damascus' ornate, century-old Hijaz train station."

Syrian election shows depth of popular support for Assad, even among Sunni majority

Not surprisingly, you were forced to scour the web for an article that is 1-1/2 years old. Something like 4 million people have been forced to leave Syria in addition to 250,000 dead as a result of the war.

Nice try but cutting and pasting of dated material doesn't make your case.

How about 3 months ago?

You see, just making things up as you do doesn't make them true. You may have fooled other posters in the past, but you aren't fooling anyone here. Try providing some backup to your assertions.

"So, apparently, the more that the war has continued, the more opposed to the U.S. the Syrian people have become, and the more that they are supporting Bashar al-Assad, whom the Syrian people know that the U.S. is trying to bring down."

How about you actually read whet you cut and paste?

21% agree “Prefer life now than under Assad.”

Your rabid hatreds cause you to feverishly scour the web in search of ways to satiate your hatreds but it causes you to stumble over your cutting and pasting.

Are you trying to make a point? Do you know what the converse of "21% prefer life now than under Assad" means. LOL

there is no "converse" Most likely it means that life is horrible both now and then and-----but even MORE IMPORTANT it is a good idea not to put a HEX on good luck (a middle eastern thing). Of course Syrians "blame the US"-----they also blame "DA JOOOS" -----they are brought up that way if not from the cradle at least
from kindergarten. See? I have known Syrians over the years-------
