I was asked to comment in English about the situation in Syria ....and I thought it will be a good idea to share with my English speaking FB friends ....
By far .... Assad held areas are intact ... Rebel held areas have been almost reduced to rubble ....
Homs ... The third largest city in Syria .... has been completely destroyed and ethnically cleansed of its Sunni majority with the exception of the two 'Alawites neighborhood .... A Russian drone recently documented Homs' destruction ..... Since WWII ... Nothing like this ever happended .... So far two million killed and injured .... Plus eleven million people are refugees now ... I provided the video in the first comment ....
The Sunni majority are all gone now from Homs and that was couple of years ago ... The same thing is underway in and around Aleppo, Hama, and Damascus
The Syrian Rebels have mostly small arms and some mediam arms.... And they were the first to fight ISIS by the way .... early 2013
It should be noted the rebels only ask to lift the arms embargo ... They will finish Assad ... Those guys didn't threaten their neighbors whatsoever although all have dogged them .... Mostly from Lebanon, Iraq, and Iran
The USA has been helping Assad passively and indirectly coordinating with Russia and Assad
The success of the revolution threatens almost everyone ... No exceptions ... It will be the most destabilizing thing the ME have ever seen .... And I believe it will impact Russia, gulf states and Iran .... The idea of successful revolution is a threat to all
