So what do you people think? Do you support the attack against the Syrian Government or not?
Salaam alaykum wa rahmatullah,
To answer your question in one word, NO! I condemn the attacks against the Syrian government. I condemn everyone fighting against the Syrian government not because of allegiance (to the Syrian government) but because I am a rational human being. I have met Christian Syrians here in USA who have family members in Syria who tell me that the days of Bashar Al-Assad were much preferred over the status quo (and the barbarity that these "jihadists" have unleashed) not because there is mass killing and the country's infrastructure has collapsed but because Bashar Al-Assad had maintained religious order (among Muslims and Christians) while protected the minorities (such as Christians).
I know our Shia brothers (like yourself) are vested in personalities whether it be Imams (ra) or leaders like Assad, et cetera. Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah is vested in the truth. Every person I consider to be my teacher is against what is happening in Syria and they are all Sunnis except one who is a Shia. All my teachers, except the Shia one, are involved in weekly seminars and halaqas, open to both Muslims and non-Muslims, to educate people and introduce them to authentic Islamic beliefs and Islam's stance on current world events. They unequivocally condemn Al-Nusra, ISIS, whatever other names these barbaric degenerates use - may Allah (swt) hasten their destruction.
What I find appalling is that when I was not too happy with bringing down Saddam, my Shia brothers were rejoicing. Now that it is Assad's turn, they are quite troubled by it.
