Assad gassed his own people and murdered 10s of thousands of political prisoners. The path forward for Syria is uncertain, but I think the vast majority of Syrians are happy he is gone, and would embrace any amount of chaos if there is even a chance it is better than decades of brutal Assadist rule.

Just yesterday you were saying Russia has enough air power to keep the rebels away from Damascus for a week, so maybe worth examining some of your prior assumptions.
