Based on what you saw, would you say that there is a united, coherent Free Syrian Army, or instead a collection of dispersed, disorganized factions all fighting against the same enemy?
From what I've been reading, everything tends toward the latter. No one has effectively consolidated power amongst the rebel groups, and no two organizations can give you the same picture of what they hope to accomplish once Assad has fallen -- if they even have a plan. Old leaders are consistently replaced with new ones, and Islamist movements are becoming increasingly more prevalent.
