What is a continuing source of tension between Syria and the US?

Tensions between the United States and Syria come from three major sources. Syria disapproves (to put it mildly) American support for the State of Israel at all and certainly more than the Palestinians. The United States sees Syria as a puppet government propped up by Iran and sheltering and funding numerous terrorist organizations like Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad. Finally, the United States disagrees with the Syrian policy of torturing dissenters and killing their own citizens.

What is the role of the legislative branch of Syria?

The legislative branch consists of a 250-seat unicameral People's Council. Members are elected by direct popular vote on the basis of single-member electoral districts for four-year terms. Half of the seats in the People's Council are reserved for the Baath Party. The Council sits in three regular sessions annually but may be called into special session. In theory, the functions of the council include the nomination of a presidential candidate, enactment of laws, discussion of government policy, approval of general budget and development plans, and ratification of treaties. In practice, however, the legislature has no independent authority, because the executive branch effectively controls the legislative process. The assembly may criticize government policies and modify draft laws, but it cannot initiative legislation.

What do Syrian people look like?

Depends on their ancestry. Syrians Mainly look Mediterranean White, like the Italians and Greeks--which is due to the Greek/Roman-Byzantine presence in Syria in the past. A good number of Syrians are just Arabized Greeks and Romans. Then there are some Syrians that look like Arabs from the Arabian peninsula, they are either Bedouin, or are descendants of Arab invaders of the 7th century. Keep in mind, Syria was not Arab until the 7th Century Arab and Muslim invasion. You'll also find many Syrians who are blonde hair, fair skin, and blue eyes- who are descendants of the Crusaders. Then there are the Syriacs, the native Aramaic speaking people of Syria; they either have a Mediterranean look from the mixture with Romans, or sometimes Semitic looking.
