This document is page 6 of a political analysis report discussing the stability of the Syrian regime under Bashar al-Assad during the 2011 Arab Spring. It details Assad's mistaken belief that his anti-Israel stance and ideology would protect him from uprisings similar to those in Egypt, and outlines his failed attempts at public relations and reform through speeches in March and April 2011. The document bears a House Oversight stamp, suggesting it was part of a larger cache of retrieved files.
