You give people too much credit

As a Syrian from (most likely) the opposite side on Syria, I can tell you we like Assad and believe he's at least the best of the 3 options by far. We would like to emerge from this conflict under Assad's power and move forward

In terms of foreign policy, I can't help but agree.. But domestically Assad did rule Syria effectively and he did improve the education and health conditions in the country.

PS: الحمد الله على السلامة

It's not the issue of allowing, its that our levels in these things were good. We lived in a country in a constant state of war, one with many enemies and few (hated) allies, even the other arab governments don't support us.. Yet Syria was still one of the most free, most well educated, and most well balanced countries in the middle east and Asia. There's something to be said for a person who rules like that, especially when the options are him, Al Qaeda and ISIS

As another Syrian who believes out of the 3 large parties, Assad is the safest, do you agree, or still want to see Nusra/Daesh take over power?
