Don't usually get involved in stuff like this but...

Syria is in chaos, and war is brutal, but it's no good wringing
our hands saying how terrible it is, since the West is itself
responsible for it. Collective guilt, or what ?. I sometimes
wonder if permanent instability is the long term aim, divide
and rule, to make it easier for the West to manipulate them. If
there were civil war in the US, do you reaslly think the response
from government would be any different if push came to shove ?.
Afaics, Syria is a sovereign state trying to repel a terrorist
uprising to restore order. External meddling from Western countries
with agendas only makes the problem worse. In the end, for the
ordinary citizens, order and stability are everything, Western
style democracy or not.

Syria before IS was one of the more enlightened arab states, stable,
freedom of religious expression and safe to have coffee in the
sidewalk cafes. Keep your head down, and you left alone. Certainly
more freedom than authoritarian regimes like Saudi Arabia, who we
support and sell arms to. The hypocricy of the West is staggering,
but Syria were allies of Iran, so of course the west were against
them.

As usual, one must ask, who has the most to gain from the chaos in
Syria and in particular, what is the state of Israel's interest
in all this ?. You can't necessarily believe what you read in the
local media either, as they are often little more than shills for
their own position or external interest groups. You need to source
your info as widely as possible, weighting for bias, to get at the
truth...
