Bashar al-Assad responded to the uprising by leveling his country with artillery, chemical weapons and explosive barrels dropped from planes. Fourteen million people have lost their homes. Half a million are dead.. Samer Attar, an American doctor born to Syrian parents, has helped families in pain through the war and the aftermath of the quakes. He did 23 different surgeries his first day in Syria after the earthquakes.
