Syria being a dictatorship that makes people 'disappear' without official statistics, though.

  Are you implying that the Salafist-Jihadist rebels in Syria don't do the exact same? Because they make people "disappear" too, in addition to brutally and savagely executing people in public (decapitation, mutilation, etc). And I'm not just talking about the now-defunct Isil -- al-Qaeda (AKA Jabhat al-Nusra AKA Jabhat Fateh al-Sham AKA Hayat Tahrir al-Sham) are equally guilty of using religious pretext to subjugate and murder at their discretion. There's more to the situation in Syria than what CNN and MSNBC spoon-feed the ignorant masses.

    No, he's not implying that. He's saying that prior to 2010 (pre civil war), a lot of people could quietly disappear in Syria due to the government. CNN and MSNBC don't have anything to do with reading comprehension.
