RE: Why is the Syrian Army Fighting to Keep Assad in Power?
I feel like this needs some more explanation.
To me, here on Steem, if I give an author a full upvote on his post and thereby at least some cents, I feel like that means much more than a slightly rude comment.
The author and I are not friends but I appreciate his viewpoint about Syria, as it gives me a new perspective, often.
I also appreciate his blunt style and I assume he doesn't mind if I respond in a similar fashion.
TL;DR: actions speak louder than words.
I have the biggest upvote on the post so far, so I feel it's fair to correct him this directly.
It's rare to find people here who actually read the content, analyze it and care enough to comment @felixxx, if you noticed at the end of my posts of recently I'm writing 'your objective comments are always welcomed.'
I do appreciate your attention and criticism. Do keep in mind that English is my 3rd language and I so struggle with its grammar, nevertheless, I've started a trend in the early days of real Syrians writing to defend their country from this unjust war of terror waged against us by almost everybody. That time there wasn't much writing in English giving the other perspective about what's happening, you'd only find thousands of posts daily in English parroting the Pentagon propaganda.
And btw, I'm not a journalist either but had to write as I cannot join the battle directly, even though I had my share in the earlier wave of terror 1967 - 1982 and later in the early 90s. So, it's already a challenge to write, additional challenge to write in English, added challenge to get the correct info, and then the biggest challenge to allocate time for all of that as writing doesn't really provide an income and I end up most of the months paying from my pocket to cover the hosting for the site, the hosting of videos, and even the connection online.
In conclusion, please carry on with your comments about the content, the wordings, grammar, and I'm really happy when having people challenging my narrative and news, it means people care enough to seek the truth.

English isn't my first language either and I mainly wanted to help out and just did not care to fluff it all up.
I hope you can keep going and that there will be peace.
