DECADES of oppression & finally the torture of children caught spray painting anti-Assad slogans on government buildings in which the Assad regime shipped the beaten & tortured bodies of the children back to their parents as a warning to all not to mess with the Assad regime...That was literally the straw that broke the back of Syria!!

To act as if the opposition started this mess is ABSURD!! YES, there are atrocities taking place on both sides but EVERYONE KNOWS WHO STARTED THIS MESS!

I find it quite telling that so many here on DU support tyrannical regimes if it fits into their preconceived geopolitical narrative. SAD!!!
