Ongoing clashes between rival groups within the armed opposition intensified in Syria’s Aleppo province this past week following protests against the heavy-handed tactics of the al-Qaeda-affiliated Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). Infighting among rebels could spell trouble for an opposition movement seemingly on the wane, but it could also present an opportunity. If the moderate-leaning rebel groups can sever their symbiotic relationship with their al-Qaeda affiliates for good, they stand to get significantly more support from Western backers wary of inadvertently assisting old enemies. But it won’t be easy — even as the rivals battle for turf in Aleppo province, they have united to inflict a resounding defeat on government forces elsewhere in the country.- It's easy really: a shitload of people in one country don't get along, so they're having an armed free-for-all.Continuity

heres the thing.... if other arab countries wont help their fellow muslims, why the fuck should we?
all these guys talk about doing shit in the name of their god and for islam, yet they refuse to help their fellow brothers and sisters?
if they wont, why the fuck should we?
THEY should be doing something, not us.

the more i read about all this the less i understand what the hell is happening. who's the good guy? who's the bad guy? is there a good guy? is there a bad guy? what happens if the west intervenes? what happens if the west doesn't intervene?
everyday there's a different answer to these questions.

If we were supposed to intervene, we should've two and a half years ago when they started killing musicians. We didn't, so all this shit spilling out of governments is hypocrisy.

What a mess
- hotroddy-1
1. We invade Iraq and turned it over to Iran, Shiites so they install sharia law.
2. We support Military coup in Egypt.
3. Now we invade Syria to give to Al Qaeda, more islamic fundamentalists, and creation of another Theocratic State.
And US says it does it to spread American values and freedom. lol
