The Syrian Civil war began in the spring of 2011 after nationwide protests against the government of President Bashar al-Assad resulted in armed conflict. After rebels seized control of several major cities, ISIS forces moved in and took over control of many regions of northern Syria. The government of Assad responded by carrying out airstrikes resulting in over 70,000 civilian deaths. France has been critical of Assad’s response to the war and in 2016 proposed a U.N. Security Council resolution to sanction Syria for the use of chemical weapons.

France should support pro-democracy rebel groups in their fight against both ISIS and Assad's government
@962KL2Y2yrs2Y
Yes, as long as those offensives aren't against the democratic forces or the Kurds
@9BZBXTM2yrs2Y
No, because chemical weapons were used in the offensive which killed mostly ordinary people.
@9974C822yrs2Y
Yes, while ensuring as few casualties as possible

France should not support neither, but Assad is the lesser evil.
