Ethnicity has nothing to do with secularism or religion. I am talking about the majority population of Syria (almost 80%) which cannot be ignored. They will eventually shape and regain power (political) in Syria once again. It is just a question of time.
Only a troll believes that one of the most despotic, incompetent and violent/criminal regimes that helped destroy Syria and made millions of Syrians leave Syria (mostly Syrian Sunni Arabs), 1 million left for Germany alone, is some kind of well-liked ruler.
Next you should tell people how much North Koreans love their rulers.
Also Syria is a dictatorship with no real elections (every election under the Al-Assad regime has been a complete and utter sham) and if helping utterly destroy Syria (Al-Assad regime) did not make him/them step down, some useless rule in 2027 (supposedly) will not make him step down.
Sounds like the apologists for Putin who also claimed that he would soon step down but he is now ruling for 23 years and even having changed the Russian constitution numerous times just to be able to rule longer.
as i asked why when election under international observer offered they refuse to participate in it if Asad participate , and rule is rule, why you think its useless , in the next election he simply is nor eligible to participate and he himself actually signed that rule
Wait are you trying to tell us that Hezbollah has been fighting Israel like a conventional army/military? Like seriously dude? Lool
in 2006 there was not a single place south of litany that Israel soldier went and Hezbollah fighter didn't stood against them in villages or outside them, no where Israel could go without having to fight Hezbollah fighters , you think how they only managed to advance 10km while Israeli had 15 time more force advantage, if they were fought like Taliban for example how USA advance in Afghanistan was so fast and Israel in Lebanon so slow.
Militias groups like them have an advantage in that they can afford not to follow the rules of war unlike a country's military forces, since they are not oblidged to , due to the fact that they are not a regular army and are under no obligations to do so. Same with Taliban, ISIS, TTP against Pakistan, Kurdish rebels fighting Turkey for decades now etc etc.
what rule of law they exactly didn't follow .
let see for three day after start of the war when Israeli bombing Lebanon infrastructure they didn't retaliate against Israeli infrastructure and before retaliating they warned that they are gonna attack Haifa refinery and gave Israel enough time to shut it down instead of attacking it out right and burn half of Haifa.. was it the rule of war they didn't follow.
they didn't killed 3-4 time more civilian than military?
they didn't bomb schools? or power-planet ?
what rule they followed exactly ?
Moroever, don't you think its actually silly that a soveriegn country has to be infected by a militia group (hezbollah) that owes its loyalty to a foreign power (Iran) has taken Lebanon hostage and relegated the country's military and national fabric as a mere symbolic role?
who said Hezbollah owes its loyalty to Iran .
second you must answer why Hezbollah shaped ?
and third , answer me which Lebanese group never ever raised gun against Lebanon army ?
and forth which Lebanese group whenever Lebanon army asked for help provided all of it had to them ?
and another question what hezbollah will do with the lebanese people they arrest for example it was 2013-2014 that some sunni militia raised arm in lebanon and wanted to turn Lebanon into another syria , in half a day Hezbollah disarmed them , what they did with the people they arrested ? was it normal behavior of a militia that owe its allegiance to foreigners.
Lmao, are you kidding me? An election that Assad didn't win?
Of couree he and his father won all elections with an absolute majority of allost 100%.
You are talking of a one Party state country whose president has been getting "elected " just like his father before him with a more than 90% majority? Even Kim jung Un will be proud..
I know hes been a useful ally and now puppet for your country Iran, but come on dude, you can be that oblivious on here just becasue of that. Lol
you may laugh , you have probably forgotten
this is from NATO in 2013
May 31, 2013 LONDON — After two years of civil war, support for the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad was said to have sharply increased. NATO has been studying data that told of a sharp rise…

if you don't want to read all the article
The data, relayed to NATO over the last month, asserted that 70 percent of Syrians support the Assad regime. Another 20 percent were deemed neutral and the remaining 10 percent expressed support for the rebels.
now you tell me for those 10% he must have abandoned the will and trust of those 70% and left them on the mercy of cannibals and ISIS and their supporters ?
Yes i heard Hezbollah relies alot on illicit activities/contraband etc to financem their large militias group/activities. Well, I guess they need they need money to function and pay their members, so i can'tblame them that much on this one. The end justifies the means i guess, even for a so called religious group. Lol
Hezbollah involved in the drug trade. American law enforcement discovered Hezbollah’s drug activity by chance in 2006, when Colombian wiretaps
