according to Christians living in Syria.

The rebel side consists of various terrorists groups from
Saudi and 0Pakistan. Assad has been around for decades
During this period, his regime has been benign although
there were human rights violation, they were not severe.

The main reason for US to want to intervene isAssad is
a valuable ally of Russia in the middle east. This is exactly
the same situation as Afghanistan in which the US supported
Muslim rebels against a secular govt because the govt was an ally
of Russia. These rebels later took over and became the Taleban
and linked to 911 attacks.

Quote:
Up until about a year ago, advocates of intervention in Syria’s civil war hoped that a relatively liberal government could replace the Assad regime. They pointed to the ideological moderates in the Free Syrian Army as a source for potential leaders. But since that time, the FSA has become sidelined by radical and violent Islamists from around the region. In Foreign Policy, Thomas Pierret, a lecturer in contemporary Islam at the University of Edinburgh and author of Religion and State in Syria: The Sunni Ulama from Coup to Revolution, explains what happened.


To me it is disappointing to see Obama who received the Nobel Peace
prize starting another war or trying to tilt the delicate balance in middle east
