NOVANEWS
They said his days were numbered
They said his support was minimal
They attempted to demonize him to the point of madness
They attacked him at every given opportunity
They described his care and subtlety as weakness
They blamed the most ferocious war in recent times on him personally
They used every tool, effort and weapon to destroy him
They sent Jihadists from every section of the world to fight him
In the end, after all the propaganda, all the war, all the interventions, statements and attacks, President Assad is the sole, legitimate, elected leader of the SyrianArabRepublic.
