Most of us are Sunni, of course. Then there are Syrian Christians and Jews, as well. Not as many as Muslims, of course. The sect called the "Alawi" are a minority in Syria - but the president of Syria comes from that group. They are actually not Muslims by the clear definition of what Islam is. But then, I do not consider many of the Shiah to be really Muslims either. At least, not those who pray to other than the One God.
