He's at least trying to put on a facade of meaning them, which is about as good as Syria has had it in my life time.
No, he isn't. He's worse than Assad, the reason nobody says Assad was better is because Assad directly caused this by killing opponents, disarming strong parties (which could have resisted jihadists) and in general destroying the country. So he's worse than Assad, but a direct consequence of Assad.
I'm certain he's more consistent than Assad and eventually this leads to a more stable and economically viable Syria. Note how I'm not saying anything about human rights and civilization.
It's pretty hard to be worse than the guy whose used nerve has on his own people and turned his country into a major producer for the international drug trade.
You just have to be the guy who turned a half-Sunni, half-Alawi city on the coast into half-Sunni, half-dead. Then after calls for stopping the murders and loads of videos with dead men, women and children he ... forbid filming that.
