This article is blood boiling in its framing of the conflict.

Suggesting Alwites not wanting to be exterminated are somehow responsible for Assads misdeeds, even though it was obvious to everyone that Wahabbis would massacare them given the chance.

The EU is firmly on the side of the jihadists in case anyone is wondering.

Is that because they associate Assad with Putin?

I'm also wondering what evidence there is for this rebellion force being "pro-Assad" besides being against the current government.

Yeah, they basically saw jihadists overrun Syria as a win over Russia and Iran.

There is no end to the moral depravity of the EU elites.
