I'm not great with politics, but I've taken a rather morbid fascination to the conflict in Syria. How it came to be, what it will bring, and what does it mean for the entire world regarding the final outcome. The great deal of confrontation comes from the Alawites and the Sunnis, and the formers grip on power over the country. Sunnis represent a good 2/3 of the population, while the Alawites represent a measly 1/10. So, the revolution came to be because of sectarianism. The current civil war has a lot of deep routes in the early days of Islam, and the different ethic classes that occupy Syria. I do apologize if this has been elaborated on, but I decided to educate myself a but before I actually said anything on the conflict itself.
Regarding foreign powers getting involved, I'm really not too comfortable with this at all. It's just a hot mess, and even after watching several documentaries and reading several articles, I'm still not sure exactly what should be done. I would appreciate it a bit if someone can condense this issue down a bit for me.
