- Watch how the Syrian civil war became the mess it is today.
After four-plus years of fighting, Syria's war has killed at least hundreds of thousands of people and displaced millions. And, though it started as a civil war, it's become much more than that. It's a proxy war that has divided much of the Middle East, and has drawn in both Russia and the United States. To understand how Syria got to this place, it helps to start at the beginning and watch it unfold:

But between all those powerful people, innocent civilians are suffering for no reason.
It is one of the atrocities of war, and why we must never enter or treat war lightly.
ikr. this is the shitty stupidity we live in today. Kill more people to punish heavily safegurded people for killing innocent people. like, wtf.
Anya Arora welcome to the middle east
I'm well aware that innocent people die every day, and I am no bleeding heart. I just think it's important to realize the cost of war on both sides, so that no lives are needlessly slain.

Turkey helps Syria. Ask any Syrian refugee, the government has been very welcoming to them, but Europe doesn't want them at all. Most Muslim countries love Turkey, because we are actually one of the only ones who care enough to help.
@@consenant4769 I'm from Turkey. My best friends at university were syrian, my best friends who came here from Syria because of the war. On behalf of my Muslim brothers and humanity, I am happy that my country played the most human influence in this war. When accepting people, it did not qualify like Europe and Germany, separating what works and what doesn't. The economy has been badly affected, but I am happy for the people rescued from Kurd(Pyd PKK), Shia(Nusra, Hizbu) and Daesh(Isis) terrorists.
@@ramez_357 I am sorry for racist people. But so many of them lost their jobs for them. People are angry. Same Racist people doing same thing to Turkish people as me. This type of racism is not abour race about religion or politics.
Consenant: Turkey Is the worst. They support the worst terrorist, looted the country (like factories in Aleppo those "rebels" send to Turkey) And they even occupy the Syrien land! Accepting refugees Is their duty (unlike Europe's), there wouldn't be any ISIS without the help of Turkey!

True
this is so blatantly false it's not even funny. The world is far more peaceful today than is was before the UN and such were formed. The UN has played a major role in lifting millions out of poverty, and making the world far more safe. Just because you have a few likes doesn't mean you are correct

@u wot? ww3 didnt happen because of nukes,not because of the un,nukes changed war between great powers,thats why we hadnt have a war in 75 years in which great powers fough each other directly,NUKES are what been preventing ww3 for 75 years
@u wot? were used by the FIRST TIME,nobody knew what the nuke would really do until it was used,since then no nukes were used on a military conflict,nukes prevented ww3,especially because nukes nowadays are much more destructive than those use in ww2

Im sad Jordan and Turkey want to support extremists and reduce Syria to a war lord State. Disgusting, im disappointed in these two countries which i thought would have more dignity. The gulf states and US however dont surprise me at all. Im glad to see the Syrian Government and Kurdistan-Rojava have won
Syria will recover soon. They are now talking about rebuilding it with Russia Iran and Arab countries. It is not like they do things for god's sake and free but rebuilding it will profit them somehow. especially Iran which sees Syria as a gate to Arab world. Well Syria also stood by Iran's side in Iraq _Iran war so them being Allie is not a new thing
Who do you think should win this battle for the greater good of the country? The USA backing rebels and extremist always end in terrible ways throughout history. USA can’t back the Kurds because of turkey. Don’t really know there history or ethics. Just a negative situation in all aspects.

@Vox great piece!
presenting this in timeline makes it much more easier to comprehend the story especially when it has continued for this many years (been 10yrs now!) with multiple actors’ complicated involvements at different points in time.
Now in 2021, it’s been 4 years since this video and it would be great (for viewers and also for record-keeping) if you can make a follow-up one from 2018 until now (2021).
Because of covid-19 pandemic, international attention on Syria is fading despite a lot of the same atrocity still happening to Syrian people everyday and night .
Even crazier, the Gulfs states are now beginning to reestablish relationships with Bashar Al-Assad regime (normalize
Him). Plus the US just agreed to a gas pipeline deal from Egypt Lebanon through Syria which would be the first time US officially engages with the Assad regime.
Look forward to your next video!

@@carljohnson2194 you clearly are just as dumb as the people who just look at US and russia for these issues instead of the main issues. Yes the U.S funded isis back in the early 2000s and at the end of the 90s but that has nothing to do with what isis is today. The U.S funded ISIS to fight alqueda and after alqueda was deemed defeated ISIS turned onto the U.S which caused there conflict. This has nothing to do with the war in syria. the war was caused by saudi and iraq trying to control the middle east and since saudi is backed by the U.S the U.S is brought in and since iraq is backed by russia, russia joins.

Hello there, As a Turk, I feel sorry for the free Syrian citizen because of the persecution, war and massacre, I think many people died in wars. Did not come, were killed in eastern Turkey several years of Turkish citizens, but we do not have enough power to Turkey for the Chinese !!!! a human life we need to wake up now is not so easy !!!
I was born United Kingdom I was taking a visit to Syria and I saw some homeless people
I'm from Iran and every week we have some dead bodies from Syria.
I don't know when we have peace in MiddleEast? When we listen and speak instead of killing each other? Syria became like a game for big powers, they all want to win in this game and show they're power, but they just destroyed Syria. If war stopped right now its take at least 25 years to rebuild this country. As Iranian I'm feeling so guilty about this stupid war. I know that 5M Syrian refugees will hate iran, maybe not today but in future that hate come back to us.
We Middle Eastern people have same culture, same food, same history, we build civilization here, we conquered the world, but when we are united. While all of the word are growing we are just fighting each other and buy weapons. It's dream of mine that someday there is no war in Middle East. (-_-)

S.J. Ramos Many supported Trump because we thought he wouldn't intervene as much in Syria or directly oppose Assad. He was the only republican who confronted Jeb Bush on his brother's intolerable warmongering in Iraq. He had sympathies for Putin and Assad. Everything he said in the campaign pointed against yesterday's actions. We thought that he would put Americans first. A LOT of former Trump supporters have denounced his actions and they shouldn't be punished for believing in a lie. Was Trump justified, I don't know, but I do know that it was too soon.

Frank C. Miller usa has killed more people than russia.
Frank C. Miller really i beg to differ. Both the countries are evil but usa is more evil than russia.. and this is only my opinion
Frank C. Miller i am talking about russia not soviet union because i can also say that usa dropped nukes and killed thousands of people and WTF 100 million people, are you out of your mind beacause that many people didnt even died in WW2. Moreover i am only talking about one country direct actions. And in afghanistan usa created terrorists, which later became terrorist organisation so dont call those mujhaideens civilians .Usa started war in many countries after world war 2 . Libya, lebanon,vietnam to name a few. Do you know that it cost usa 4-5 trillion of dollars in afghanistan and 6-7 trillion of dollars into middle east. Usa buy these jihadis arm them and say its a civil war, so that people like you did not ask too many questions. In the 21st century every war has started with direct or indirect involvment of usa

Mj23foreva Arab spring isn't about democracy. It's a destabilization plan for competing oil states near the Gulf ones. Russia does not fear the "ideas of democracy" absurd. Look at their other bordering nations.
I spend my life wondering what's really happening in Syria
......now thank you for this video...it explains me every thing for just more than 6minutes
I feel bad for anyone who lost their family in this war.
@animes 4 you omg I’m so sorry
Syria became a platform to play game for world and poor people dying and suffering ;(
FD C hey listen I'm Syrian and thank goodness its safe where I live but why do we have to suffer, every time at night we hear explosions that keep us up at night.
I mean we don't have cheetos I can't play rocket league online, we don't have KFC, burger king etc
Tbh I don’t get why a country is fighting itself! The whole middle east needs some Salam, or for Israelis, Shalom. I support all trying to help those suffering, it’s like here in the USA for our birthdays we get love, and happiness. These innocent kids get killed for their birthdays. It’s sad but true that these children have go to bed with worry of their lives ending. God bless all
population is the main reason
FD C
yup you're absolute true
‘When the chips are down, these civilized people, they’ll eat each other ‘ - The Joker
Right
joker was Very bright and way ahead of the world
But that was to the civilian
And they are still dying
Quoting The Joker... What an edgelord.
thanks for summarizing your huge research so well.
it's a never ending war loop. i feel very sorry for the civilian
The funniest thing here is that Western people think they are ready to talk about the Syrian conflict and take a side from a video less than seven minutes...
exactly, but not only them everyone who doesn't live in Syria. I mean almost everyone here take it so easy to comment about such a complicated matter.
by the way i'm so sorry for people in Syria the victims are not Assad families , USA presidents , Iran Ayatollahs and Rich Gulf Princes. the real victims are simple people of Syria.
yes. my country is hilarious. they can't even fix themselves before trying to fix other countries. But at this point, I think we've all been so desensitized to what's happening on the inside, that the higherups simply just ignore it. hopefully, it will be a little bit better this pres. term.
cope
@no name “middleeasterners” Iraqis Palestinians Lebanese Jordanians are our real brother
True😂
when i left syria i was only 11 looking back at all of these events i can think of nothing but all the terrors i and my family had felt my ears don’t hear the man explaning all i can hear is the sound of bombs i see no map no reds and blues no allies and no enemies all i can see is terrified people holding their kids and running.. the more i thought about it the more complicated it gets. and despite it all I still miss my homeland every single day..
I know you said there are no friends and enemies. But I can’t help but ask, what about lesser than 2 evil? Any group who was less harsh than others?
There is no complication, I lived through the war, in Aleppo, which was the heart of the civil war, there is no two ways about it, Assad sold the country to Russia and Iran, and he let the extremists enter the country, he is ready to do anything to remain in power, just like his father did, and this civil war is the biggest proof of that.
@@Temeria4ever No doubt
@@Temeria4ever that clears things up a lot. There are no friends, but there’s one true enemy.
Iran stay with syria till end
Thanks!
war is making this world look a lot like hell
Take out the word "look" and your sentence becomes significantly more meaningful
Haven't you noticed??! ever since human's were born it's always been hell
just our countries (middle east countries) look like hell.....your country look like paradise😅
Jay-r Depao Let me tell you something!? *No one's a hero or a winner in war* both bad guys.
They play war games with innocent lives like a video game.
For what?
*Land*
*Oil*
*Gold*
*Power*
*Greed*
This will never stop till humanity kills itself or Earth destroy itself.
Amerika (gov) is top terrorist along with it's allies.
My predictions are next countries at war: *Turkey* and *Iran*
we are actually safer today than any other time in human history.stop trying to be a smartass.
5:50 when i look more at this child. i feel more worse. hes probably 4 years old and you can tell he is wearing a sonic shirt which means he is a fan of sonic but he didnt get to see the world more Rest in peace from egypt
ayo what does him being a fan of sonic have to do with him
@@captainobvious9033 poor child never experienced happiness from his fav. mascot, sonic, as he died tragically in warzone
he never got to feel sonic's loving embrace
@@captainobvious9033 edgy jokes about people dying is one of the hallmarks of the internet, but this is absolutely awful.
😭💔
Out of 7 billion people, the probability of being born in Syria is 0.1%, How Much Unlucky I Am
I wish death

Do another of these videos to explain the current situation
The Kandyan Convention (Sinhala: උඩරට ගිවිසුම Udarata Giwisuma) was an agreement signed on the 10th of March 1815 between the British and the Chiefs of the Kandyan Kingdom, in Sri Lanka for the deposition of rule King Sri Vikrama Rajasinha. The king who was of South Indian ancestry faced powerful opposition from the Sinhalese chieftains who sought to reduce his power. A successful coup was organized by the Sinhala chieftains in which they accepted the British crown as their new king. This ended the line of the Kingdom of Kandy and King Rajasinha was taken as a prisoner. By 2 March 1815 the islands sovereignty was under that of the British Empire. No change in UK Government plans in the past 1,000 years
No it doesn't. It doesn't show the truth.
I wouldn't want to watch anything else they have on it if they are going to sprinkle it with propaganda.
candle wick Here’s what they’d add based on what i’ve been reading
1. FSA is all but defeated, they relocated their leadership to Turkey after the fall of Aleppo
2. Us has deployed special forces and delivered arms and training to YPG/YPJ forces in Northern Syria (Kurds) as US/Turkish relations continue to weaken
3. Kurds are a hair away from being engaged with Turkey as Turkish Army inches closer to a Kurdish stronghold near the Syrian/Turkish border where there is currently a US military presence.
4. US attacked Syrian R&D and Testing sites for chemical weapons again, with similar reactions and condemnation from Russia
5. Iran more or less is openly supporting Assad still and has sent in their regulars (Iranian Revolutionary Guard) to train and support Syrian forces
6. UAE (United Arab Emirates) + Saudia Arabia still funding anti Assad Jihadists who have more or less hijacked the FSA’s role as the rebels
what do you mean
It's like PUBG but the last standing man is grim reaper
Hey @Vox, can you tell us what the name of the first background music you used for this video. Thanks and great work as always.
"The world is so broken. Why can't we be friends?" Now I see that actually we can't be friends. This world doesn't want to be saved. No one stays good on this world.
Religion.
Lord Horus people keep supporting dogmatic thinking, aka religion.
Kusagari Blues lmfao it's not religion, it has to do with geopolitics I.e strategic positioning and resources in certain countries that other countries want
Did none of you watch the video?
Saffron exactly
Lord Horus I've seen you around for a long long time
