Assad will fight from new mountain fortress if civil war engulfs Syria

President Bashar Assad is digging in for a full-scale civil war: DEBKAfile reports exclusively that a fortress is under construction for the Syrian ruler, family, his loyal generals and ruling elite in the northwestern Alawite (Al-Ansariyyah) Mountains – should Damascus become too hot for them.
From there, the Assads will continue to fight for their survival.
