Assad protected the Christians for one thing. Assad fought against these Islamists and Islamic Terrorist who want to create an Islamic Caliphate, for another thing. Assad won’t let them use Syria for a launching pad for an Islamic Caliphate state! And that’s as long as he’s getting support to fight them!
Just to let you know ... who did the Christians run to for protection when the Islamists were taking over territory? They ran to Assad for protection.
That’s why we should be supporting Assad and not the Islamists ... and ... we certainly should not let the Islamists win under any situation! Just look at the MESS that we have now from ISIS.
Israel can work with Assad, but not with the Islamists and ISIS!!
Assad is no more trustworthy than any other Muslim in the region. It’s just that simple. Maybe Christians had no where else to turn but that doesn’t mean he’s trustworthy ... it just shows how screwed Christians are in the region. They need their own defensible homeland like the Jews have ... not some untrustworthy mother duckling to run to when in trouble. Assad would turn his own mother over to ISIS if it were in his best interest. Christians had better toughen up and realize the situation they are in ... and fast.
Obama is the biggest friend of Islamist in Egypt, Libya and Syria. ISIS wouldn’t have existed if he didn’t destroy governments in Syria and Libya and backing Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt
