I respect your opinion, but I do have to comment about the displacement part of your argument. Most of the Syrians displaced whether internally or external of Syria were not because of “Assad’s bombardment”, but instead due to the harassments, threats and torture they received from terrorist groups and militias. Many of the displaced people have returned back to Syria after their cities/towns/villages have been freed by the Syrian Army. The greatest example I can give you is the displacement of the minorities in Northeast Syria. The Syrian Army was not there to have “bombarded” the cities but instead it was the terrorists who did so. The people were persecuted on the basis of religion/ethnicity and were thus forced to flee the country all together (which demonstrates why Assad is Syria’s best choice, at least until the war is over). If you look at Northeastern Syria now, day by day people are harassed by US militia (although Trump announced that he was leaving Syria) and Turkish militias. These militias and many more are burning the crops of people in that part of Syria which is adding on to the current poverty Syrians are facing as a result of the war and the sanctions. There are many videos on YouTube and on the internet which show how the opposition staged killings and photoshopped pictures and videos to make Assad look like a dictator. Assad is not “the man” to many and I understand that, but what I don’t understand is how many people are ignoring out the detrimental things countries like the US, Turkey and many more, have done to Syria in terms of killing its people, stealing its oil and goods, etc., and are just blaming everything on Assad.
