The rebellion in Syria has taken the world by surprise and led to the fall of the Assad family dictatorship, which has ruled Syria since Bashar al-Assad’s father, Hafez, took power in a coup d’etat 54 years ago. Neither the regime’s military forces nor its imperial sponsor, Russia, and its regional backer, Iran, were able to defend it. Cities under the regime’s control have been freed, thousands of political prisoners liberated from its notorious dungeons, and space opened for a new fight for a free, inclusive, and democratic Syria for the first time in decades.
“and space opened for a new fight for a free, inclusive, and democratic Syria for the first time in decades.”

Tbf they didn’t say a better Syria would be fought for, just that there was room to.
The typical leftist of this variety expects perfection (despite doing nothing to build socialism.) Any benefit Assad brought to Syria is irrelevant. The damage caused is irrelevant. They are just glad there is a chance for the perfect revolution to come about.
These are the sorts that celebrated the fall of the Soviet Union because it made room for something “better”.
He knows, he will just ignore it. It doesn’t effect him, he just needs shit happening no matter how bad to develop takes. Takes are what matters. The sadder the events the better, that way you can sell depression and optimism and cover all markets.
