Syria civil
war “civilians are not taking into account”
A civil war is defined as a war between organized groups within the same nation state or republic, or, less commonly, between two
countries created from a formerly united nation state. The aim of one side may
be to take control of the country or a region, to achieve independence for a
region, or to change government policies. Syria could be encompassing in the
framework of civil war. Nevertheless, this conflict seems to be a civil war but
it has international features in spite of the international intervention in the
conflict, and with this the whole world is keeping their breath as this problem
seems to be the shadow of a new world
war shining in everyone´s mind around
the world.
To begin with, the conflict began on 15 March
2011, with popular demonstrations by April 2011. These demonstrations were part
of the wider Middle Eastern protest movement known as the Arab Spring. Protesters demanded the resignation
of President Bashar al-Assad, whose family has held the
presidency in Syria since 1971, as well as the end of Ba'ath Party rule, which began in 1963. During these days the
conflict take place with the rebels, who are against the government, ask for
democracy, freedom and respect of the
human rights.
Secondly,
Assad government affirms that his regime gives security and economical stability
and that the rebels’ claims are not necessary and responds to the freedom
fighters with attacks to common people. When Assad assumed the Syrian
government in 2000, the Syros thought that his regime could be different as
Assad’s wife is from the United Kingdom though he did not changed the measures
and politics that have been maintained for many years. The nonconformist decided
to solve the conflict by themselves and try to change the government rules.
Thirdly, there was a time to negotiate and the attacks were escalated by
the national army and thousands of soldiers give up as they did not want to
kill their compatriots therefore, they started to fight with the rebels group. The
thousands of death, caused people around the world began to speak about the Syrian
conflict. In many opportunities The ONU claims that the attacks organized by
the national soldiers were against humanity, with the use of chemical weapons France
and United states stated against the Syrian regime and were planning a new
attack against Assad government. The decision was put aside by the intervention
of The ONU and Russia, whom persuaded Assad to disarm the mortal weapons.
Finally, nowadays the negotiations
may end with the conflict or it is just a relief to start the real world war,
as the rebels claim the occidental power to sentence the Assad regime since
they used the chemical weapons against the civilians. However, the fact is that
these people are suffering and dying every day and they need protection as they
are the real victims of the conflict.
