And so the point is that the rebels are more likely to kill the Christians than the Assad loyal forces?
Assad is B’aath are they not? I suppose they are more likely to live in some form of acceptance of the Christians than the radical islamist rebel faction.
As stated before, there is no winning is there? No right or wrong possible just losing less than another option.
Absolutely. I have twice ridden a transport bus through what is left of the town of Hama where there was a Muslim Brotherhood uprising against the government in the late 70's. The only part of town that was left intact by the Syrian army shelling and disposal of its population was the Christian quarter. The rest was open ground and neat piles of rubble as far as the eye could see.
The ruling clique is itself a religious, albeit Muslim, minority. They have left the other minorities (Syrian and Armenian Christians, Druze, Kurds, etc.) largely unharmed to quietly run their lives (no politics allowed, however!) and focused their boot heel on the major threat, the majority Sunni Muslims and the leading radical element of that group the Muslim Brotherhood.
The Christians in Syria are the business class of the country so they have money and some influence and are envied and hated by the majority Sunni. If the Muslim Brotherhood comes to power you will have a majority tyranny in place of a minority one and all those minorities, especially the Christians, will pay a deep price in blood.
