And you remove assad then what?
Maybe read the remainder of my posts (this one) for starters?
The Syrian people don't seem to agree. Why not remove Assad and occupy the country and let the Syrian people decide their own fate? When I say remove I am speaking of all countries, the US and Russia. There is no reason they cant work together to protect civilians.

Still does not answer my question.

There is no united opposition to place the government under.
And you would be a fool to think they will just solve there leadership crisis with elections.
You remove assad and the rebels will just fracture even more and the war will just roll on.
Andbyou get another ME quagmire .

Then one can argue the current Assad government are in fact terrorists since no distinction is needed. Had assad not started killing his own people we would not be where we are now.

You are not being objective at all, I do not understand why are you trying to justify western actions in almost any situation, when it's not possible.

I think Assad has been killing his own citizens for years and has increased that task during the civil war. He is using the war as an excuse to kill his own people to show them a lesson on what happens if you dont tow the assad party line. You get killed with Russias help.

In other words OP. anyone who does not support great leader in syria terrorist or not will be killed. Notice i said or not.
Implying political opponents as well as political prisoners or anyone who disafrees with Assad are also being tossed in with the same group. Russia getting paid to be mercs.
