      Assad is hard of hearing, he’s just making sure they actually want him to leave before he resigns and peacefully transfers power to the rebels.

      Guessing that is Assad in the second panel, and he’s mocking them, as though their statement means nothing because they are powerless, like ‘sorry, did you say something? because I can’t hear you’. And then the 4th panel is his reaction when they actually speak up.

      Usually, this meme format comes up when the target turns the tables. This time, Assad might be fucked, so the image is an anti-joke.
