It is interesting how people here are somehow defending Al-Asad... Or are you guys just saying that Radical Islamists are worse, but Al Asad was equally bad? Or are you conveniently ignoring that when people when to search for political prisoners they found just the piles of corpses that Al Asad had been producing along the years?
Again, there is no solution to this region anytime soon. There is no interest in peace from Israel, Iran, the Kurds, the US nor Turkiya anytime soon. They have other priorities it seems.
