No, it's the Indians who are behind the unrest haven't you heard, see I can pull conspiracy theories out of my A** too
? conspiracies aside, do you have anything to back this preposterous claim?
Open a history book, it's not the first time people revolt against a dictator. Check out the videos from the beginning of the uprising and the responses in the Arab world then, and you will start to understand.
It's simple really, the Arab spring have given the Syrian people hope, the successfully deposed tyrants in Egypt and Tunisia and later Libya made the people believe they can succeed as well. Pretty similar to the
Spring of Nations, for which it is called for. Or was that one a conspiracy as well, maybe by the Turks?
After the Rebellion manifested and started to turn violent some rebel forces used religion (Sunni vs Shia) to call for the extremists elements from Iraq and Afghanistan, which were emptying of Western forces. The extremists had to have something to do, since fighting and killing is all they know after a decade of war, so they went.
Pretty similar process to what happened with the Mujaheddin army after the Soviets left Afghanistan in 89', only then it was Somalia and the Caucasus.
As greater minds said; history repeats itself, you just shut your ears and sing "lalala it's the west's fault".
Oh, and to the question of who's arming them, it's not the USA and the west overall has sent very little military equipment there. The rebels themselves call this the poorest revolution since they get next to no weapons, the one's they do get generally originate from Gulf states and perhaps KSA.
