I agree with jayschmi1. Radicals took advantage of the situation. I dislike Assad for his ruthlessness but he is turning out to be the lessor of two evils simply because he is more secular.
There are people within the rebels fighting against radical usurpers but I am not sure how successful they will be.
When the dust settles the Syrian people will turn their hate and violence onto the gay community. So I don't see how it can be better if the rebels win, even if they overcome the radicals. If they bring sharia suffering the lives of gays will be worse. If Assad wins he will most likely also use gays as scape goat.
From my perspective considering how cruel and wicked Muslim heterosexual men are to gays. I am not sorry if they die, Rebel, Assad or civilian. All of them want me as a gay man to die and suffer greatly before I do. So let them kill each other, they enjoy inflicting this hatred and suffering on gays so let them reap what they so like to sow.
There is nothing to be proud of in Syria. If I were you I would leave and never look back, their hatred has consumed them leave before it consumes you. You think of them as your brothers but if they know you are gay, they will come for you.
