the allies Britain and France
The allied side. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand sparked a war causing Austria and its allies to declare war on Serbia and Russia. Soon, the allies of Serbia and Russia declared war on Austria. Then, when Great Britain and France declared war, the US wanted to help their allies, causing them to join the allies.
The US transported supplies to the Allies using merchant and passenger ships carrying United States citizens. This was why the German U-boats attacked these ships and were one of the reasons the US entered the war.
The current (2012) principal allies of the Ba'ath regime are Russia, China and Iran.
Yes they are probably the closest allies of each other.

There are no US troops in Syria, so there is no-one to withdraw.
Everybody chose sides, during the Cold War. Egypt and Syria were Soviet allies, while Turkey, Israel, and Iran were US allies (this was, of course, before the revolution in which Iran became an anti-American theocracy). When Russia invaded Afghanistan, the US aided the mujaheddin.
No. US civilian governance does not extend to any part of Syria or Iraq.
Let us say Syria has governates not states.
I wouldn't think Cyprus are allies with the US considering the US are allies with Turkey and Turkey with the blessing of the US invaded Cyprus.
The US main allies are: U.K., Israel, And Australia.
Allies means friends or helpers, The enemy of the US had "allies" too. So, yes.
Especially lately, Syria and the EU don't have a good relationship. Since Germany is part of the EU and shares similar interests as the EU (and NATO), they would not be allies.
USA was on the Allies.
