It might sound too late to ask, but I am really wondering what is your motivation behind being a firm supporter of Asad? I understand you take the position that the Iranian government is taking. But isn't the human cost way too much to keep ignoring the blood bath that is taking place? Isn't possible for you to be a "humanist" in respect of this conflict? I don't blame some religious Iranians here (without mentioning names) as they are being victimized by the current Iranian regime's representation of Shia Islam (and such claimed representation, is, in the best case scenario an arguable one). If we had a different Shia government in Iran, it could easily take another route all together in respect of Asad.
I don't know if you are a Shia believer or not, but I know that you are "culturally" Shia at least. I already understood your hints to avoid questioning your religious convictions. But apart from religion and ethnicity, the Syrain Civil War has already escalated to a ridiculously intolerable level of cruelty. I was walking around Sulimaniyah District in Riyadh about an hour ago, and found 2 Syrian ladies with a little child begging. That what made me write this post to you as its idea went through my mind while I was driving home.
