The Persians I've met outside of iran are very nice people. The reason they escaped is the same reason everyone else hates them. It all boils down to Iran is a threat to Pakistan.
Hate is a strong word and its a minority of Iranians who love to live in liberal western countries. Majority of Iranians live in Iran and arent emigrating in large numbers(...at least not yet)
As with all conflicts, what we need to understand is who benefits from this conflict?
Benefactors of this conflict: US, Israel, GCC(KSA,UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait)
Why do i say this? well i agree the conflict is complex and weird, but if you use the patterns and true motivations of the parties, you can piece it together. What i am very confident about is that US and ISrael had ALOT to gain by the conflict. The conflict was to dethrone the Anti-ISrael, Anti-US, pro-Iran leadership of Syria and switch control and domination of Syria from Assad's Alawite led govt to a Sunni(most likely), pro- ISrael, pro-US, pro-GCC country.
Do you remember in the first few years of the war when ISIS was pounding and killing Assad's troops? Well once again that fit into that axis' strategy of wearing down Assad and trying to kick him out. US and Israel were goign to be the biggest winners from an Syria with no Assad leading it. How could mere civilians wear down the Syrian army of mid Xxx,xxx # of soldiers? HOOOW?? its not logistically and reasonably possible. Those were armed groups funded, trained, equipped, motivated from outside sources. ISIS gave these US/Israel/GCC axis a way to pressure any entities in the ME militarily without telling their citizens that they were taking war actions abroad. This could've been part of the Greater ISrael plan, i'm not sure, but i know a certain block used/created this civil unrest in Syria situation to remove Assad, a leader in a very strategic ME country that wasnt pro ISrael or US.But these messages got lost with all the "gore" war criminal acts.
Is it the Syrians who benefit?
THe Syrians who werent in favor now with the Syrian govt would probably had benefitted if Assad was taken out. But NATO did 2 surveys during the way and support for Assad stayed at least 50%, so how was some Syrian "civilians" able to kill 100-300K Syrian soldiers and govt militia men??? does that capability sound like something basic protesting civilians can do??? I dont believe the domestic OPPOSITION to Assad could take him out on their own. i can bet $$ on that any day. So there was an external decision and dagger move to take Assad out. Assad committing war crimes AND this agenda to take Assad out as leader of Syria are 2 separate issues.
Do Shias or Sunnis Benefit?
While religion matters in Syria, i believe personal and family connections plays a bigger role probably than religious affiliation, cuz afterall, Syria has been a secular state for decades.
If we figure out the end beneficiary we will know who is behind it all.
The way you know the beneficiary is to first understand who the victims are first,and then the benefiticiary IS the opposite side of hte victims.
VICTIMS: Assad's govt and army SAA, Iran, Russia.
OPPOSITE OF VICTIMS: US, ISrael, Turkey, GCC(most at least)
Beneficiary = opposite of victims = US, Israel, Turkey, GCC(most at least)
Also i was reading on the Afghan version of the Liwa, mate they have it really tough, much worse than what Pakistanis get.
