And I'd be willing to bet my life on the fact that a good portion of the "Syrian" refugees aren't actually Syrian. I've seen way too many "rebel" videos where I didn't understand a word being said, because they weren't using a Lebanese/Syrian dialect.
Assad allowed people of all religions to practice freely and he kept the murderous fundamentalists down. The majority like Assad and had no problem with the way he was running his country. I can guarantee also that a majority want Assad back in power ahead of the murderous fundamentalists in ISIS.
If KevinNYC had his way, the Obama-backed Muslim fundamentalists who rape children and eat dead soldiers hearts would be in power in Syria.
A majority of the "Syrian" refuges in Europe right now are actually Pakistani.
Also, the people of Egypt were 100X better under "Evil Dictator" Mubarak than they are right now.
Sometimes, dictatorship is a good thing. Just look at Ancient Rome under Julius Ceasar or France under Napoleon.

Can't believe at some of the posts here.
You can't just plant a democracy in a region of the world that never had one (Islamic world). 90% of the time it will cause a shitstorm of epic proportions.
And those allegations that include Assad doing 'ethnic cleansings' and 'rape campaigns' are just laughable in and of itself.

Sure you can, look at India. It's no the middle east but a country with over 1B can function well under a democracy.

They chose democracy themselves though. No one forced India to be a democracy. Also that country is still racist and their government is still one of the most corrupt in the world.
Also, India has lots of Muslims, but they aren't the majority, and it's a country that has a strong tradition of accepting all religious faiths. Many Islamic countries don't share that same tradition.

It's a widely known fact and it's a pretty simple thing to look up.

A near perfect example of whataboutism. When you resort to this, you're pretty much conceded you don't have an argument.
Pssst. Saudi Arabia also blocks Facebook.
