I fail to understand your logic. Syria could theoretically speaking have 200 million people living inside its borders. What's the point of your arguments?
In those two Syrian provinces (Latakia, Tartus) about 2 million people or so live.
Where do you get those 20 million from?
I really hope from my heart that one day Saudi Arabia gives Palestinian some arms even if light arms.

do you think Saudi "Arabia" will give weapons to the enemy of their master ??!!
People need water. Syria itself cannot support that many people, because the interior lacks water and therefore cannot support many people. The coast should be able to support 20 million people. Crimea is 27,000 square kilometers and can support well over 20 million people. Taiwan has over 23 million people already. This is why Crimea is so important to Russia.
Eh? Yes. Every living organism needs water, more or less. I fail to see the relevance of this? I mean in connection to what we were discussing before.
Now Crimea and Taiwan is included? Don't care about those.
Syria does not lack water. Nobody lives in the Syrian Desert aside from a few settlements alongside the Euphrates and its upland which is fertile land.
Southern Syria is relatively fertile as well. Damascus lies in Southern Syria. I don't recall them having any lack of water. Well, whenever the hideous regime is not trying to poison the water.
Lastly you mention Gaza as some kind of comparison. You do realize that this is one of the most densely populated areas in the world and that many people suffer there and live in very bad conditions because of that very same reason?
And you want 20 million people to live in two small provinces?
Who are those 20 million people going to be? The 10% Nusayri's that constitute 2-3 million people as of March 2014? How are they going to grow 10 times their current size in a matter of months for this to be relevant for this conflict?
Do you understand what I am saying now about some of your statements?
Alawites are now mostly concentrated in Damascus, Aleppo, Homs, Hama. They have been moving out of the mountains since 1971 when Assad took power. The coast is mostly populated by Sunnis. Coastal Sunnis are well educated and because of the ocean they are staunchly pro regime.

Therefore, Sunni Arabs make up some 60% of Syria's population, and some 55% of SAA / NDF are Sunni.
Just as although 24% of Crimeans are ethnically Ukrainian, only 10% of Crimeans speak Ukrainian as first language. Even though Sunnis are majority in Syria, a lot of them are married to Shia or have family members who are Shia. After decades of living together, I suspect only 10% of Sunnis don't have family members who are Shia.
