Does the conflict remain mainly a popular revolution against the government, or is it now more of a civil war between Alawites, Kurds, Sunnis etc?

Does a breakthrough from either side seem possible in Aleppo? And what state are the city and its residents in after so many months of fighting?

  1. What is the allegiance of the rebels in Aleppo; are they mainly FSA, or Al Nusra, or some other group?

  2. To what extent do these groups have a command structure?

  3. Finally, how much influence do groups like Al Nusra now have nationally in Syria, compared to the FSA? Does the FSA still comprise the majority of the rebels?
