Let's put things into context, what is happening in Syria is the ethnic cleansing of the sunni muslims. Syria is supported by Iran and Lebanon's Hezbollah - soldiers from both countries are in Syria.
The alawis are actually nusayris.They believe that Ali is Allah, in other words they are mushriks according to their beliefs and that includes Mr not-a-good-muslim-leader-yet bashar al kalb.
The nusayris give god status to any leader who rules the country - you can check youtube and hear syrian nusayris saying they worship bashar al kalb.
Why are the Gulf countries helping the FSA - is it because of religious reasons and that they feel they need to help their fellow muslim brothers. The answer is NO.
The Gulf countries fear Iran and Syria because of the fairytales they are being fed by the big boys America and Britain. What they're essentially saying is Iran a shiite country can become a super power in the region and therefore no more Gulf countries...no more enjoyment for the fat sheikhs.
The Gulf countries want to stifle any shia influence within the region.
'Terror squads kill innocent syrians' is what bashar and co are saying, but most of these syrians are being shelled by airplanes and helicopters.These fighter jets and helicopters belong to the syrian army.
Why are the western countries funding the FSA, if it is true that they are? Money is to be made from choas and they have their own agendas.
Bashar Al kalb is evil, the US is evil, the Shia scholar who says umar ibn Al khattab liked homosexual sex is evil, Iran is evil.
Any ruler who has ruled for decades and starves his people is evil.
They're all evil.
