So I am really confused about the opposition in Syria? Are they several groups, varying in degrees when it comes to terrorism and extremism?

Is ISIS amongst the opposition that was fighting Asad, so would we say ISIS won now?

No they were not behind the last moves. Them and Alnusra had connections in the past but the current Elgolany left them years ago and strarted becoming a modern and a more mature version of himself and he admits to being wrong in the past according to his own words on CNN. That's where he kept insisting on protecting all minorities. The full interview is on YouTube.

That's why I said that I hope that he's honest but again only time will tell. I still have hundreds of questions like you but maybe they get lucky right?

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Ahh I really doubt the words of someone with his history. Of course he is going to say he will protect all minorities now. He is an Islamist at the end of the day. His place is the mosque, not the parliament, if they have one left.
