BRUSSELS (AP) -- Syria's civil war is increasingly turning into a sectarian conflict pitting majority Sunni rebels against government forces supported by the country's religious and ethnic minorities, a new U.N. human rights report said Thursday.

So now it’s Somalia North, but with nerve gas laying around for the taking.

Now THAT is Hillary/Obama work for SURE...!

NICE GOING...!

The Al Qaeda branch in Syria can’t possibly beat Assad and get his chemical weapons.

Even with our help.

No, we wouldn’t help Al Qaeda get access to weapons.

Like in Libya, Egypt or anything.

The video was very short. Not worth even waiting for it to run after a bunch of advertisements.

The Arab war against all the others in Syria is now almost 1400 years long, and still counting.

This is a war of demographics that breaks down the Syrian population as follows: Alawite and Shi'ite Muslim — 13%, Druze Muslim — 3%, Christian — 10%, Sunni Muslim — 74%. Assad is an Alawite Muslim and his minority coalition controls the country. Iran (Shi'ite Muslim) is Assad's major ally, along with Russia and China,

Saudi Arabia is funding the Sunni opposition to Assad and are getting support from the U.S. and the EU. Aid to the New Syrian Army (Sunnis) are funneled through NATO member Turkey (Sunni Muslim). The Christians, Druze, Shi’ites are backing Assad because a victory by the Sunnis would lead to a genocidal bloodbath. The major power involvement jacks up the stakes in a Syrian civil war.
