Okay, I am quite confused on this situation. The facts are, all I hear of on the news is the Syrian security force killed this, the Syrian Security Force did this, the Syrian Security Force did that. I never ever hear of any ill deeds that the rebels are probably doing on news. This makes the view of Syria quite distorted, because the fact is, the West seems completely one-sided. I would like some answers that can help me on my views in this because all I ever see is Anti-Syrian government reports.
Is the Syrian Rebels backed by majority of Syrians?
Is the Syrian Government purposely killing civilians on a mass scale?
This is really important: Who or what organization make up the Syrian Rebels?
If we do help the rebels take charge what good will it do? Why can they just not wait out Assad's term, which if they are majority, just not vote him again? (I may be mistaking how their voting system works)
Have Assad overstepped his authority to legitimize a stepdown or overthrow?
As we already know, Al Qaeda did/do have plans to launch a ME region revolution to install Muslim backed governments. This is something that I will not be happy backing, as we all know well since the Medieval Ages, that theocratic states are usually not great ideas. Just because a leader is bad doesn't always mean it would be a good idea to topple it. To this extent, I am glad Russia and China is slowing down U.N aims a bit.
Also, why is everyone resistant to calling this conflict what it seems to be turning into: a Civil war. Is it because of U.N laws? Do U.N really have the authority to butt into civil wars when the leader of the country is not purposely killing civilians? Kind of destroys a nation's soverignty, no?
I noticed after the change in regime of Lybia, they fell off the map from reports in news. Makes me wonder what the heck is going on there? Did things get better or worse?
