Similarly, during World War II, Charles de Gaulle was isolated in his appeal of June 18, 1940. Very few French answered his call, whether they thought the war lost before it started, or because they did not support his autocratic character. Yet four years later, he gathered behind him 95% of the French, in part because he led them to victory and secondly because he was able to unite around him different political persuasions. So now as President al -Assad gathers behind the vast majority of Syrians, France does not know what to do. In an interview with TF1, President Francois Hollande claimed that the war was for democracy. According to him, the West should therefore bring Syrian democrats to power in Damascus, that is to say, he clarified, neither Assad nor the jihadists. This absurd analysis would mean that on the battlefield, there were three camps. The truth is that there are only two, and the Democrats have sided with the Syrian state, that is to say, with President al -Assad.
