The fall of the Assad regime marks a historic win for the Syrian people after decades of brutal rule, highlighting U.S. challenges and opportunities in the region.
The Assad family's authoritarian governance faced inevitable collapse due to rigidity in adapting to a rapidly evolving Syrian society, leading to widespread dissent.
Assad's early promises of reform were met with superficial changes, while the regime maintained a police state that thrived on corruption and repression.
Despite initial hopes for reform, the regime's enduring brutality resulted in economic collapse and widespread poverty, ultimately fueling the desire for change among Syrians.
