what are you talking about? Syria is not just Sunnis, Christians and Kurds. It's a lot more mixed than that - ethnically it is Arab or Kurd with additional Assyrians, Armenians, Turkics etc.

Religiously it is Sunni, Shia, Ismaili, Alawite, Greek Orthodox (Antiochian), Melkite Greek Catholic, Syriac Orthodox Church, Armenian Apostolic Church and some Protestants. Then there are still some Jews, some Yezidi, some Sabateans, some Zoroastrians.

Assad may be bad, but the alternative will be worse for non-Sunnis and for Israel.
