How do you know he's an evil dictator? Before the Arab spring, people of both Suni and Shia faithsas well as Christians were all living in together peacefully. Also, you can't rely on Western media to get your information cause it is all biased. |
Because I have Syrian friends who left the country years ago because it was run by a selfish dictator (former Assad's father) who also killed tens of thousands of Syrians to maintain his control. Regardless of how 'peaceful' the country was, the fact is simply, he would rather killed thousands of innocents than step aside, (he bombed whole city neighbours killing women and children) which caused the peaceful protest to evolve into the civil war that we have now. And why do you think there were peaceful protest demanding he step down in the first place? Because he was doing such a great job running the country?
What if instead of having an election Obama decided to bomb red states instead? That is the equivelant of what has happened here. I can't imagine anyone would be saying irate 'redneck' Americans trying to overthrow him would be worse than he is. But that what's happening here too.
