Leaders Bashar al-Assad has been the president of Syria for 10 years, he proceeded his father. Opposition of Bashar al-Assad is the Syrian National Council. The Free Syrian Army is a militia group of defectors from the Syrian armed forces.

How the Syrian Revolution is similar to the American Revolution Syria has a dictatorship under president Bashar al-Assad and England had king George III. Americans and Syrians both got foreign support for their revolution. There are loyalist to Bashar al-Assad like there was for the king. The Free Syrian Army is a militia just like the militias that America had against Britain.

How the Syrian Revolution is different from the American Revolution Syria had their revolution in a time where information can be easily shared over the internet which the Americans back in the 1770s and 80s didn’t have. The Syrians can get their points out there to people all over the world in a matter of seconds which would help gain more supporters but the Syrian government is trying to limited the media. The Syrian revolution is more of protests right now. Even though they have a militia their fights are not like the battles of the American revolution.

Syrian’s future Syria has not yet been able to overthrow the president and are have government crackdowns on the protesters. Some Syrians no longer wish to stay under Bashar al-Assad control. With the forming of the Syrian National Council there is more hope for their freedom. But I believe that it will be a while before the protesters get their freedom.
