Arab Spring: Update On The Middle East | DrJays.com Live | Fashion. Music. Lifestyle: "SYRIA
All eyes are currently on Syria, as President Bashar al-Assad fights to stay in power. As CNN reports, “Assad’s tumultuous, 11-year rule—and the political experiment of modernization that it entailed—has proved to be a total failure. With the cycle of ever-increasing protests met by regime violence and then more funerals intensifying in all areas of the country, it is time for Assad to consider his future.” When Assad was voted in as President back in 2000, there were hopes he’d be the catalyst for modernization and democracy in Syria; fast forward over 10 years later and the country has upheld human rights and the rights of minorities, experienced constant political unrest and is now seeing its youth population (counted at 60 percent) dying for their freedom, with hundreds of protesters killed thus far."
