The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

The Syrian rebels continue to make swift progress against the Assad regime. The regime's corruption and inability to govern has hollowed out the Syrian state to the point the army can no longer effectively defend government-held territory. Assad may soon fall.

Guardian

Establishment-critical narrative

What is happening in Syria is a Western and Israeli-backed plot to weaken Iran and the axis of resistance. Though the Western media loves to fawn over the "Syrian rebels," in reality, Syria is facing a terrorist onslaught made up of jihadists and foreign fighters from across the world.
