This document appears to be page 11 of a political analysis or report (possibly an article draft) discussing the geopolitical history of Syria. It details the pressures faced by the Assad regime from the US and France following the 2003 Iraq invasion and the 2005 Hariri assassination. It also recounts the 1982 Hama massacre under Hafez al-Assad and compares it to the sectarian tensions and protests faced by Bashar al-Assad approximately thirty years later. The document bears a House Oversight footer.
