    i believe it was an offshoot from the "arab spring". it started a few years ago and for some reason that is the first thing that popped into my head. but i think it was inspired by the arab spring and the assad regime being so unpopular.

    What's crazy is that I've been to syria 3 times from 09-12 and I never thought of him as being unpopular. I know it was a regime that controls everything but I never got that from the people there. And trust me, I tried. I'm as confrontational as anyone and live to know. So I asked and I went around and saw. The old damas city is beautiful. Full of cobblestones and old villas and mansions turned into restaurants. Saw Jews, Christians and Muslims all hangen out. Who would've ever thought that right?

    There are other threads about Syria that you could have bumped in your attempt to deflect attention from the massacre in Gaza.
    But in the mean time....why don't we ask the US and Israeli's behind the insurgents how long they plan to keep funding the massacre?

    Have to admit, this was my first thought as well.

    Yeah, but if 'every thing is so great' there, why so much opponents to Asaads regime?
    What was asaad did or didnt that started all this?
    What that means that 'he controls every thing there'?
