Another excellent example of letting Allah sort them out when Islamists fight each other. Do disturb them and let their violent behaviors/nature take its course.

“In 24 months of brutal combat, Syrian opposition fighters have eliminated a fifth of Pres. Bashar Al Assad’s Russian-made tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, according to estimates.

That’s no fewer than 1,500 T-55, T-62 and T-72 tanks plus BMP fighting vehicles exploded, burned, disabled or seized by rebels—with potentially thousands of crewmen also being killed, injured or captured.

The destruction of so many of the government’s heavy vehicles by relatively lightly armed rebels is, for the regime, a painful reminder of the vulnerability of even the most thickly armored tanks in close urban fighting—and especially when the vehicles aren’t protected by nearby infantry.”

Assad is not an Islamist. He protects the Christians in Syria as his father did as well. This is ancient Christianity.
