I defected because I refuse to kill the population of Syria. I refuse to be a tool in the box of a murderous regime and I refuse to become the slave of a sectarian institution that uses me to commit crimes against the same people I swore to protect.

Orders from command and squadron leader to bomb civilian targets and the ruthlessness of the Alawite pilots who would drop their load on cities or villages and joke about it as if it was nothing.

I'm not familiar with the western media. But from what I could gather is that the media is giving way too much attention to ISIS while the regime, which by the way is the root cause of the problem, is left to do as it wishes without accountability.

Yes. There is a lot of that. We were not allowed to take initiative and push the limits of the aircraft, practice attack tactics, come up with new strategies. We requested many times to do some low deck exercises because our aircraft were so old they were no match to the Israeli F series jet fighters on high altitude. So our plan was to go low where we thought we'd have an advantage and they would not approve it.
