What's problematic about Assad?

Tell me without regurgitating CIA talking points

In 2012 a majority of Syrians supported Assad (55%) yet from reading most Western media you'd think this was something like 12 percent. That was the height of the opposition movement. Within a year (2013) most of the opposition went back to the government after seeing what the West was doing in supplying weapons to any jihadist head chopper that would kill Assad.

Trump won the election in 2016 with only 46.1%

2012 - Obama won with 51%

2008 Obama won with 52%

So who is more legitimate?

If you retreat from a leader that has stood firm in the face in the most disgusting onslaught the West has launched against another sovereign nation since Iraq then you will end up retreating to someone like Corbyn - who will be smeared as a Maoist/Communist/Czech spy/antisemite anyway

May as well have some principles and stand like a rock instead of like a weathervane by trying to appease liberals
