He seems like a relatively cool guy. I mean, Ghaddafi and Saddam were wackos, but this dude used to be a doctor before he was unexpectedly given the throne. I guess he's tortured and imposed people, but so have we. Is it simply because he generally sides with our enemies (Russia, Iran)?
>>57289971
he is not a willing puppet.
>>57289971
How was Ghaddafi a wacko? He was no boyscout by any stretch, but he turned that shithole around.
He's killed and look at his country now.
>>57289971
jews want the ME to either be in constant turmoil or be subservient dogs. a secular government in the ME is a threat to israel.
now go back to reddit.
>>57289971
Because Assad is in the way of a pipeline from Qatar to Turkey.
>>57289971
Wasn't he also against the pipeline from Saudia Arabia to Europe?
>>57290335
This.
Also, bonus is Assad provides Putin a warm water port.

military dictatorships tend to fall. assad and ISIS will fall too. supporting light-sunni government seem to be only logical option in long term.
supporting assad is no different than peeing against the wind.

Underrated post.

It's because he ordered his men to fire at will at his own people

minority dictatorships***
>>57289971
He IS a cool guy and you're right about him. He is aligned against us and we have yet to puppet him, so he's an enemy, unfortunately. We attempted to create a civilian uprising with internet propaganda and unlike Gaddafi he didn't just shut off the internet, which is what eventually made everyone side with the rebels in Libya.

>military dictatorships tend to fall
They fall in the middle east due to agitation and military force from the west. Brutal dictatorships are the only thing that can keep you animals in line, Achmed
>>57289971
I can't speak for the US who probably wants him gone for BS reasons
But I think Assad clearly isn't working when over half of his country doesn't belong to his government and is in a civil war
>>57289971
Morality isn't exactly the biggest factor in determining if a country gets American support, or most support, for that matter. It's mostly a matter of economics.
>>57290682
>his own people
He is an Alawite. They were not "his people". I dont think you know how government works in the middle east or africa, its tribal, and there are at least 5 or 6 major groups in Syria who are trying to oppress eachother, and 20-off factions across those groups.
The only solution is to balkanise into 5 states (or more) and force them to co=operate/tolerate eachother by not letting any single one of them be too powerful. Give one the dam, give the other the oil, give a 3rd the port, and the 4th the industry and so on.
>>57290627
Lol turkey, shouldn't you be out helping ISIS steal oil?
>>57289971
Assad is not even destined for Syrian presidency; have to take over his father's business because his brother was killed.
What's worse than being a wacko? Probably having to run his wacko family business.
>>57290284
Dressed like a lunar pimp and wanted to force African nations to sell their oil for gold, let his sons run amoke and rape and murder a la Uday Hussein.

>>57289971
he is against Saudi Arabia, Israel, and Turkey so he is against America... it's that simple
>>57289971
here everyone wants him gone because he used barrel bombs against his people
Cuz he's a cukk
>>57291722
Yeah but none of this was until after the civil war started going not his own way... and atrocities happen on both sides of every war.
Why was the west against him from the beginning?

Has to do with oil. The US is big friends with Saudi-Arabia and both of them want to build pipelines from Saudi-Arabia to Europe. The problem is, they have to go through Syria. (Jordan is already friends with US/SA)
A) So that Europe won't be dependent on Russian oil / Gas. The pipelines would be disastrous for the Russian economy, since Europe buys a lot of Russian gas.
Since Assad (Who is friends with Putin to prevent the above ) Doesn't want to allow the pipelines, America wants him gone so they can install a pro-US/EU government, build the pipelines, DESTROY the Russian economy.

nigga Assad is the shittiest tier of shit for arab dictators. Comparing him to based Saddam or Qaddafi is fucking akin to blasphemy you little shit eating american faggot bitch

This makes a hell of a lot of sense, if true. Thank you.

It's more because Israel and Saudi Arabia hate him and demand us oppose him.

Incomplete explanation. The interests are different depending of the country.
* Saudi Arabia: prevent a pipeline opened to Iran oil, so they can keep their market share in EU.
* Qatar: prevent a pipeline opened to Iran natural Gaz, so they can keep their EU market shares and continue to steal Iran gaz.
* Turkey: Get rid of the Kurds, using ISIL against them. Their goal is a clear genocide. Bonus: Personnal enrichment of Erdogan's family
* Israel: Make the Assad Gov. explode to partition Syria, so they can obtain international recognition of their annexion of the Golan height
* Jordan: Because they wanted some Syrian immigrants which were better skilled than their average population. However now they have clearly backed down, because they have had too much immigrants which end up destabilizing the country.
* USA: To remove a Russian base
They all

Literally nothing that US presidents have not done.

Dont forget about the golan heights israel keeps creeping on more and more
