He's ok.

He's a secular dictator who uses violence to keep more violent fundamentalists in line in a small region of the world that happens to sit near strategic interests. He's no saint but he's probably the mildest out of Gaddafi and Hussein.

He's alright.

The rebels are ISIS. Assad is fighting ISIS. He's like Stannis Baratheon in that he's willing to do bad shit for good reasons.

Chaotic Neutral

if you watch his interviews he's not so bad

i can see why he overwhelmingly won the popular support of syrians when the alternative is basically isis

He's demonized by our government just like gaddafi, he's really not that bad. He's just doing what's best for his country

>dictator
>mass murderer
>russian puppet

>SENDS US REFUGEES

actual bad guy

>He's ok.

you got three out four wrong. kys.

fuck off Mahmoud, you're not fooling anyone

He is /ourguy/ in Syria

I guess he's a necessary evil. Same reason why Saddam should have never been taken out.

He's done some bad things, but he pretty much needs to do bad things given the position he's in. The people he's fighting against and the people who've been trying to depict him to the general public as an evil dictator who needs to be removed are way worse than he is.

You fucking idiots. To this day there has not been any conclusive evidence that Assad killed his own people in the numbers and ways the US media claims.

Remember Ghadaffi? Hussein? This is the same shit going in circles and you fucking idiots keep eating it up. Why are American people so fucking stupid.

Sure, he is probably not the greatest most democratic leader. But the thing is that you NEED a dick to be in charge of these Arabic countries because without them the terrorists take over.

IT KEEPS FUCKING HAPPENING AND YOU KEEP BELIEVING THE SAME REGURGITATED SHIT OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

It really does take a strong dictator to keep these animals under control. We see it happen time and again.

Hes a stooge for the Iranians. Everything else is just MSM agitprop and /sg/ shilling.

Make a meme
And by the way :
" Assad’s ‘extraordinary betrayal’ led to Qaddafi’s death: report"
" President Bashar al-Assad had sold out his fellow tyrant in an act of self-preservation"

>You fucking idiots.

Who are you even disagreeing with in this thread? You're saying the same thing everyone else said.

He's bad, but the others are worse.

Remember that the whole Syrian Civil War started during the Arab Spring when the police tortured/killed a bunch of high school kids in Daraa for writing anti-government graffiti. Plus Assad is only president because his father was president and inherited his titles like a medieval king.

But the alternative is ISIS, so we take what we can get.

What a clusterfuck that whole part of the world is.

He is barely even a dictator, he inherited his position through bad luck, he is more of a reformist monarch. He never expected or wanted to be the leader of Syria, and under his leadership Syria was inevitably heading towards a more secular and democratic system of government. Which is why the west and its pet jihadist ecclesiocracies decided to topple one of the only remaining threats to a stable, modern state in the middle east.

Nothing he has done even compares to things US and other western leaders have done in the past decade.

He's the exemple of a good Kebab, and the end of the (((arab revolution))).

He has been known to fund Hezbollah. Your synopsis is a fantasy.
