Thousands of Detroit-area Syrian Americans are celebrating the overthrow of the Syrian government and expressing hope for a safe return to their home country. Many Syrians in the U.S. have been unable to visit Syria due to the oppressive regime of Bashar Assad. However, with Assad gone and the rebels in control, Syrians in the U.S. are hopeful that they can now safely return to visit or even permanently settle in Syria. Syrians in the Detroit area, which has a large concentration of Arab Americans, followed the news of Assad's downfall with disbelief and celebrated when the government fell.
