Then according to your conspiracy theories, the Free Syrian Army is some sort of puppet? In Egypt, that entire "revolution" was also something that the US wanted. Look how it turned out and Egypt and Muslim in Egypt are better for it. Al-Asaad is a proxy for Iran. Iran may be publicly at odds with the West that is why it appears that the US and its allies oppose al-Asaad. The US has yet to provide any real aid to the Muslims in Syria, whereas Iranian Revolutionary Guards and Hezbullaat have both been fighting alongside the Nusayris against the Muslims.
