A member of the Free Syria Army, Aleppo province

"The revolution means more than the university"

"They caught me then they stabbed me," he said. "I was rescued by girls."
This isn't quite as heartwarming:
"The increasingly sectarian nature of the divide in Syrian society meant Aboud remained isolated among the Syrian exiles in Turkey, where the political and military groups are almost exclusively Sunni."
though
"Some international observers have warned that the revolution has taken on an increasingly militant Islamic feel. Along the road from Aleppo towards Syria's fifth city Idlib, guerrilla leaders and the few villagers that remain insist that is not the case – yet."
