Right Now ...Over the course of the last year,
the civil war in Syria has grown
from a small unrest to a larger
uproar. Mr. Bashar Assad has
retaliated against his peoples
actions with brutal violence,
killing over 7,000 Syrian citizens.
This kind of massacre would not
continue if Russia and China did
not veto the decision to remove
Mr. Assad from power. Their
claim was that they did not want
the UN to have the power to
remove someone from power
based on a vote.

ABOUT ME
Etiam: Jess Jimenez
A writer for this one time
newsletter addressing Syria!
Russia and China are said to be the great powers that allySyria. While Bashar Assad, leans on them for support and otherassistance, they failed to aid the people in a recent vote to force Assadaway from power. The United Nations Security Counsels voteresulted in a 13 -2, having both Russia and China opposing removalof Bashar Assad.
Both countries have invested time and money into Syria:Russia is providing weapons for the countrys military and Chinavirtually doing the same thing. The bloodbath will continue tohappen with Assad in power, and many are holding Russia and Chinaas accomplices to the tragedy going on in Syria. Moscow and Beijing
arent supporting the people in the country, they never were.

Allies of Syria ... friends of the people?(Cont.)
Blood and violence is what the allies of Syria are spectating. Bashar Assad has shown
no signs of giving up power, especially since the Baath party in Syria has been in power for
over 40 years. Bashars father, Hafez, took control of Syria through coup in the 70s.
While Bashar believes the rebels are stronger on airwaves he expects his power to
control the ground and win over the airwaves eventually. He believes the media has been a
heavy critic to his actions. Certain minority groups within Syria also have support of the
Assad regime, since having Assad in powers keeps them protected. Choosing sides for this
civil war has been difficult for some, it is a choice pertaining to betrayal, loyalty, and justice.

Allies in SyriaABOUT MEAuthor: Sammy Zeisloft
She wrote this.
From reading into the current
uproar in Syria, you learn about
many things such as allies, enemies
and help that comes in many forms.
This articles tells how Russia, China
and Iran support Assad Regime but
how this could be non beneficial for
the rest of their country. From the
beginning of the war in Syria, allies
have showed their support for the
syrian government, now they arecoming together and supporting the
people in order to bring peace back to
the country.
In the beginning, these
allied countries supported the
government leader and gave
support to Assad regime, now
however, the countries are
more for the people and
helping their country once
again reach peace.

Who are Syrias allies?ABOUT METucker Bartholomew
Journalist from Science
Leadership Academy
While Russia, China, and Iran claim to be allies with Syria, Russia and
China have vetoed the decision to remove Assad as the leader in Syria,
and Iran has not been completely honest about support they claim to
have given. Iran has claimed to give training to rebels through their
navy, but no evidence has been given that they have used any docks in
Syria. Russia and China vetoed the bill under the fear having countries
rights diminished by the UN deciding they can take over. Their question
to the bill asks where this kind of power ends. The article reflects theeffects of their veto. Violence in Syria goes unchecked by the UN, and
bloodshed is highlighted in the explanations of rebel assaults. Russia and
China were the only two countries to veto the bill that condemned the
violence in Syria, and that backed the Arab League plan to get Assad to
step down. Because of this veto many have been killed, and more
continue to die.

Who are Syrias allies? (Cont.)
As the civil war continues to rage on, Syrias allies continue to look like
confused sheep in the midst of its strife. Syria is a very important nation in the
Middle East. Its diversity of religious practices and cultures make it an eclectic
gem in the midst of a continent that isnt as accepting. Allowing Mr. Assad to
continue his massacre is tantamount to loosing a major part of progressive
change in the Middle East.
This is why removing Assad from power is of such vital importance.
However, one horrific truth is that while some countries may be allies with
Syria, some may not be allies with its people; Russia and China. While both
countries indubitably realize that there are over 7,000 dead citizens and only a
small rebel force to repel the governments attacks, both countries are unwilling
to remove Assad because they do not want that kind of power to be distributed
to a specific country. Assad is able to act on the lack of unity, both in his country
and in the UN, and use it as his advantage. There is no forgiveness for Assads
crimes, but there are now prolonged ramifications for his actions.

Syrias allies and who they areABOUT MEEtiam: Steven Webb
He wrote this.
From reading the article Syrias allies China and Russia are
urging Assad to talk. Mr Assad is facing severe international
isolation stemming from his crackdown on an eight-month-old
uprising, which the UN estimates has killed 3,500 people.
