There are at least ten well known armies and militia groups fighting in Syria.
The Syrian army backed by Russia and Iran and has the support of the Shiites and Christians in Syria who view Assad’s army as their only real protectorate. Turkey, who’s motives aren’t very transparent Iran/ Hezbollah who are aligned with Assad The Free Syrian Army who are anti-Assad and were supported by America until they started handing their weapons over to ISIS The YPG who want a Kurdish state and who have reliably allied themselves with America and continue to fight against ISIS ISIS (formally al-Qaeda in Iraq) Who commits acts of genocide against Shiites, Christians, and Yezidis. The Nursa Front, better known as al-Qaeda who are now accepting mass desertions from ISIS and like ISIS, are fighting against Shiites and Christians which includes the Syrian Army. The Christian Militias who fight against jihadist groups including ISIS. They are supported by Russia and Assad but have had no U.S support so far. And America who was sending weapons to The Free Syrian Army and is still working with the YPG against ISIS but more recently has concentrated its efforts on toppling Assad. Assad is the only Arab group protecting Christians and yet surprise, surprise, he’s gassing children, just like Hussain did. Remember though none of this has ever been verified. Edited to add Russia! This all started about ten years ago when Assad screwed up the contract that was set to build a gas pipline from Qatar, through Syria down to the Med where it would supply Europe. Instead of strengthening the US and European economy, Assads broken contract was about to strengthen Russia. The same thing happened to the Ukraine when it refused to sign up to the EU. Russia needs to control the Syrian pipeline and the West need to control the Syrian pipeline but what both the Russians and the West overlooked was how many forces are at play in Syria. For those who rule over us, its all about oil, for us, the western civilians, its about having to live beside the fallout and for Syrian civilians its about having to live with all this extremism over lineage and interpretation of the Koran. The West started this fight and now the West is blaming all the guys who turned up after. I don't believe for a moment that the western pigs at the top are concerned about chemical weapons. This is all about occupation to control the flow of gas and has nothing to do with brokering peace or any other crap like that.
