Anyone who is a leader of Assad's stature certainly must have "hubris" or self confidence to operate as leader at all. If he and his people (that's Alawites not Syrians) aren't worth a civil war in their own eyes then in such a rough neighbourhood as the MENA they would have died out centuries ago with their heads on pikes for the crows to feast on. What kind of person doesn't think their life worth fighting for? Some kind of self-hating morbidly morose person?
The solution to 1984 is 1973!
