War in Syria: Years Ahead?

The civil war in Syria could drag on for much longer than expected. President Bashar al-Assad continues to hold power and his fall is nowhere in sight. Even though rebel forces are moving into Damascus, closing in on the capital, the war could drag on for another four years some experts say. This has become a much bigger conflict than just Syria and the forces are becoming increasingly radical says Aram Nerguizian, a Syria expert at the Center for Strategic International Studies in Washington D.C. The president’s regime is getting help from Iran, Russia, and Lebanon. This civil war is starting to become a war of attrition.
