From a Pulitzer Prize-nominated journalist specializing in the Middle East, this groundbreaking account of the Syrian Civil War reveals the never-before-published true story of a 21st-century humanitarian disaster.
In spring 2011, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad turned to his friend and army commander, Manaf Tlass, for advice about how to respond to Arab Spring-inspired protests. Tlass pushed for conciliation but Assad decided to crush the uprising -- an act which would catapult the country into an eight-year long war, killing almost half a million and fueling terrorism and a global refugee crisis.
Assad or We Burn the Country examines Syrias tragedy through the generational saga of the Assad and Tlass families, once deeply intertwined and now estranged in Bashars bloody quest to preserve his fathers inheritance. By drawing on his own reporting experience in Damascus and exclusive interviews with Tlass, Dagher takes readers within palace walls to reveal the family behind the destruction of a country and the chaos of an entire region.
Dagher shows how one of the worlds most vicious police states came to be and explains how a regional conflict extended globally, engulfing the Middle East and pitting the United States and Russia against one another. Timely, propulsive, and expertly reported, Assad or We Burn the Country is the definitive account of this global crisis, going far beyond the news story that has dominated headlines for years.

I was looking forward to a more straightforward narrative, but this book's complex details made it hard to follow. It’s informative, but the used condition also meant some pages were tougher to read through. Just be prepared for a dense read.

Detailed account worth reading
This book gives a thorough account of the Assad regime and its tragic effects on Syria. I learned so much about the family's role in the destruction. It’s definitely a must-read for anyone wanting to understand the region's current issues better.

A gripping read on Syria's turmoil
This book really dives deep into the Assad family's impact on Syria. It’s shocking to see how their quest for power led to such chaos. Perfect for anyone interested in Middle Eastern politics or recent history.

Informative but tough to get through
While the content is eye-opening, the writing style felt a bit dry at times. I appreciated the insights but found myself skimming through some sections. Still, it offers a lot of valuable information about the situation in Syria.
