Hi swrain,
Try not to blame us completely though, for it's not just us causing the conflict.
I believe, there is no sane person in the world, not only in Syria, blaming people in America... also in Canada, Europe, Australia and Japan... etc.
This is true for the simple reason; they, as we since March 2011, are all victims under the mercy of the same powerful group (we may call them the World Elite who were able controlling the international media and isolating peoples from each other and dividing them in a way or another).
Sadly, I live now a serious doubt that Microsoft may attack my PC anytime (by its new updates for example). This helps me understand the reason for which the US System has insisted lately that my PC should be no more protected by a very good anti-virus software like AVAST.
Anyway, there was no revolution in Syria and no civil war now for the simple reason, ALL Syrians, Christians, Muslims and Jews of all sects, stand with their secular/liberal System and President since the launch of the international terror war in March 2011 against them. ALL agree that Syria will not follow the fate of Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. In other words, all Syrians refuse being ruled by the new Sharia that blesses the killing of civilians (as preached since 2001 by some terrorists, first in America then in all over the world).
I am very sorry for talking about this, but it seems that soon Syria will be attacked from outside. The terrorists who were hired from all over the world and exported to Syria while they were being supported by a huge international TV propaganda focused against us couldn't defeat yet the unified Syrian people for 16 long months so far.
Since March 2011, our national brave troops and guards are protecting us (in my city Aleppo, there are more than 5 million citizens) but if the external attacks will happen, I am sure you will miss me... Thank you in advance
Kerim
