Which is all fine and dandy when you identify with the dominant ethnicity. It's the Syrian Arab Republic, not the Syrian Republic.

Edit: Just so you know what you're downvoting, the current regime is based in the Baath-doctrine which is heavily pan-arabic and ethno-nationalistic. Like I said, its the Syrian ARAB republic, not the Syrian republic for all. The Greek orthodox of the Levant and Syria mostly identify as Arabs (indeed, the founder of baathism was Greek orthodox) which is why they are ok in a country that is based on Arab nationalism. It was the same in Iraq, you could be Christian but not Assyrian (Tariq aziz original name was Mikhail Youkhanna for example).

A little late, but my dream look is a clean shaved head with a big ass beard. But I'm 32 and my beard shines with it's absence. I still have a full head of hair though, which is nice.
