Answer 1
Bashar al-Assad is a horrible person and violent leader. He represents a minority government of Alawite Shiite Moslems, who represent less than twenty percent of the country, depriving most of the citizens of Syria from having enough to eat, viable infrastructure, and Rights and Freedoms. He has periodically engaged in the violent repression of both the majority Sunni Moslems and Christian minorities. He is currently (as of April 2012) shelling the city of Homs because the Arab Spring Rebellion is holed up there and has no regard to the many civilians in his line of fire.

About 5% of the Worlds oil but 25% of the Syrian Economy.... the main oil was found by Iraq Oil a consortium of Shell, Exxon, BP and two smaller companies in 1933. Then the business was Nationalized by King Nasser in 1958. I suspect the Big 3 would like to have their Refineries back and Shell, Exxon, BP will likely get what they want. The biggest oil fields are close to the Iraq Border and would therefore be easier to control than prior to the Iraq War. The current Chemical Warfare may be just the right excuse to go back and settle the control of the oil once and for all....and oh yes, give the world the idea that we're saving the children.

Hazael came to power by assassinating the King before him, who was named Ben-Hadad. Hazael was not of royal birth, so he might have named his son after his predecessor to link him to royalty and to send a signal that he meant for the rulership of Syria to remain in his family.
syria itself is not economically wealthy, but the people in it are. they have extremely large family inheritances and pride themselves on their wealth. furthermore, syrian culture is driven by prestige and money. if you have neither, you can rely on your self respect and dignity as backup, and if you dont have that either, then youre a nobody.
syrians, especially in the past few decades, have become extremely successful in the western world. they boist of world renown doctors and are very ambitious because the more success they bring about for themselves, the more prestige they can rank in and thus the more highly thought of they are.
to be apart of a syrian community requires nothing but money and a sense of self respect, if you have those you are admitted into their society. syrians are extremely maticulous about who they admit, and are very racist as well. they dont even marry outside of their own city and if they do, its all very hush hush. if you arent syrian and are allowed into their society, then you must either 1)have a lot of money or 2) be very well known/famous.
