After 5 months of suffering a brutal crackdown at the hands of their own government, the Syrian people are now facing an uncertain future, with many ups and downs to consider.
With the U.S. now officially saying Syrian leader al-Assad must step down(and many more countries soon to follow I suspect), the Syrian people can hope that international intervention in some way can help bring about the reforms they so desperately want...and deserve. On the other hand, this involves the U.S. (and other nations to follow) imposing strict sanctions on the country, including not importing their oil. THis is done to put pressure on the government, but the people will suffer the most if these actions do not effect immediate change. Which they won't.....
