Would you rather have it x10 worse? People are just gonna have to deal with civilian deaths if they ever want to get rid of ISIS. A new government in a massive civil war would completely ruin the entire Middle-East.
Does that make him a "great guy?" He's a cruel dictator who's using the most inhumane methods to keep the syrian population from overthrowing him. There are worse factions than the syrian government in the middle-east but i'm sure it would've been less complicated without him.
i dont get the connection but you are sort of right. I mean, they had X3 more troops then israel yet they somehow lost in war against a bunch of untrained holocaust survivers.
Quote: "Assad's a great guy" Sure, civilians die in wars but in this case it´s by gas and napalm attacks by their own political leader. He´s no better than Ghadaffi or any of the arabic spring dictators.
