Syria’s future under al-Qaeda spin-off HTS will come in two flavours only. Either submit and collude like the West Bank, or end up wrecked like Gaza
There has been a flurry of “What next for Syria?” articles in the wake of dictator Bashar al-Assad’s hurried exit from Syria and the takeover of much of the country by al-Qaeda’s rebranded local forces.
Western governments and media have been quick to celebrate the success of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), even though the group is designated a terrorist organisation in the United States, Britain and much of Europe.
Back in 2013, the US even placed a £10 million bounty on its leader, Abu Muhammad al-Julani, for his involvement with al-Qaeda and Islamic State (ISIS) and for carrying out a series of brutal attacks on civilians.
Once upon a time, he might have expected to end up in an orange jumpsuit in the notorious, off-the-grid detention and torture facility run by the Americans at Guantanamo Bay. Now he is positioning himself as Syria’s heir apparent, seemingly with Washington’s blessing.
Surprisingly, before either HTS or al-Julani can be tested in their new roles overseeing Syria, the West is hurrying to rehabilitate them. The US and UK are both moving to overturn HTS’s status as a proscribed organisation.
To put the extraordinary speed of this absolution in perspective, recall that Nelson Mandela, feted internationally for helping to liberate South Africa from apartheid rule, was removed from Washington’s terrorist watch list only in 2008 – 18 years after his release from prison.
Similarly, western media are helping al-Julani to rebrand himself as a statesman-in-the-making, airbrushing his past atrocities, by transitioning from using his nom de guerre to his birth name, Ahmed al-Sharaa.
Piling on pressure
Stories of prisoners being freed from Assad’s dungeons and of families pouring on to the streets in celebration have helped to drive an upbeat news agenda and obscure a more likely dismal future for newly “liberated” Syria – as the US, UK, Israel, Turkey and Gulf states jostle for a share of the pie.
Syria’s status looks sealed as a permanently failed state.
Israel’s bombing raids – destroying hundreds of critical infrastructure sites across Syria – are designed precisely towards that end.
Within days, the Israeli military was boasting it had destroyed 80 per cent of Syria’s military installations. More have gone since.
On Monday, Israel unleashed 16 strikes on Tartus, a strategically important port where Russia has a naval fleet. The blasts were so powerful, they registered 3.5 on the Richter scale.
During Assad’s rule, Israel chiefly rationalised its attacks on Syria – coordinating them with Russian forces supporting Damascus – as necessary to prevent the flow of weapons overland from Iran to its Lebanese ally, Hezbollah.
But that is not the goal currently. HTS’s Sunni fighters have vowed to keep Iran and Hezbollah – the Shiite “axis of resistance” against Israel – out of Syrian territory.
Israel has prioritised instead targeting Syria’s already beleaguered military – its planes, naval ships, radars, anti-aircraft batteries and missile stockpiles – to strip the country of any offensive or defensive capability. Any hope of Syria maintaining a semblance of sovereignty is crumbling before our eyes.
These latest strikes come on top of years of western efforts to undermine Syria’s integrity and economy. The US military controls Syria’s oil and wheat production areas, plundering these key resources with the help of a Kurdish minority. More generally, the West has imposed punitive sanctions on Syria’s economy.
It was precisely these pressures that hollowed out Assad’s government and led to its collapse. Now Israel is piling on more pressure to make sure any newcomer faces an even harder task.
Maps of post-Assad Syria, like those during the latter part of his beleaguered presidency, are a patchwork of different colours, with Turkey and its local allies seizing territory in the north, the Kurds clinging on to the east, US forces in the south, and the Israeli military encroaching from the west.
This is the proper context for answering the question of what comes next.
Two possible fates
Syria is now the plaything of a complex of vaguely aligned state interests. None have Syria’s interests as a strong, unified state high on their list.
In such circumstances, Israel’s priority will be to promote sectarian divisions and stop a central authority from emerging to replace Assad.
This has been Israel’s plan stretching back decades, and has shaped the thinking of the dominant foreign policy elite in Washington since the rise of the so-called neoconservatives under President George W Bush in the early 2000s. The aim has been to Balkanise any state in the Middle East that refuses to submit to Israeli and US hegemony.
Israel cares only that Syria is riven by internal feuding and power-plays. Beginning in 2013, Israel ran a covert programme to arm and fund at least 12 different rebel factions, according to a 2018 article in Foreign Policy magazine.
In this regard, Syria’s fate is being modelled on that of the Palestinians.
There may be a choice but it will come in no more than two flavours. Syria can become the West Bank, or it can become Gaza.
So far, the indications are that Israel is gunning for the Gaza option. Washington and Europe appear to prefer the West Bank route, which is why they have been focusing on the rehabilitation of HTS.
In the Gaza scenario, Israel keeps pounding Syria, depriving the rebranded al-Qaeda faction or any other group of the ability to run the country’s affairs. Instability and chaos reign.
With Assad’s legacy of secular rule destroyed, bitter sectarian rivalries dominate, cementing Syria into separate regions. Feuding warlords, militias and crime families battle it out for local dominance.
Their attention is directed inwards, towards strengthening their rule against rivals, not outwards towards Israel.
‘Back to the Stone Age’
There would be nothing new about this outcome for Syria in the worldview shared by Israel and the neocons. It draws on lessons Israel believes it learnt in both Gaza and Lebanon.
Israeli generals spoke of returning Gaza “to the Stone Age” long before they were in a position to realise that goal with the current genocide there. Those same generals first tested their ideas on a more limited scale in Lebanon, pummelling the country’s infrastructure under the so-called “Dahiya” doctrine.
Israel believed such indiscriminate wrecking sprees offered a double benefit. Overwhelming destruction forced the local population to concentrate on basic survival rather than organise resistance. And longer term, the targeted population would understand that, given the severity of the punishment, any future resistance to Israel should be avoided at all costs.
Back in 2007, four years before the uprising in Syria erupted, a leading articulator of the neocon agenda, Caroline Glick, a columnist for the Jerusalem Post, set out Syria’s imminent fate.
She explained that any central authority in Damascus had to be destroyed. The reasoning: “Centralised governments throughout the Arab world are the primary fulminators of Arab hatred of Israel.”
She added: “How well would Syria contend with the IDF [Israeli military] if it were simultaneously trying to put down a popular rebellion?”
Or, better still, Syria could be turned into another failed state like Libya after Muammar Gaddafi’s ousting and killing in 2011 with the help of Nato. Libya has been run by warlords ever since.
Notably, both Syria and Libya – along with Iraq, Somalia, Sudan, Lebanon and Iran – were on a hit list drawn up in Washington in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 by US officials close to Israel.
All but Iran are now failed or failing states.
Security contractor
The other possible outcome is that Syria becomes a larger version of the West Bank.
In that scenario, HTS and al-Julani are able to convince the US and Europe that they are so supine, so ready to do whatever they are told, that Israel has nothing to fear from them.
Their rule would be modelled on that of Mahmoud Abbas, leader of the much-reviled Palestinian Authority in the West Bank. His powers are little greater than those of the head of a municipal council, overseeing schools and collecting the rubbish.
His security forces are lightly armed – effectively a police force – used for internal repression and incapable of challenging Israel’s illegal occupation. Abbas has described as “sacred” his service to Israel in preventing Palestinians from resisting their decades-long oppression.
The Palestinian Authority’s active collusion was on show again at the weekend when its security forces killed a resistance leader in Jenin wanted by Israel.
Al-Julani could similarly be cultivated as a security contractor. Largely thanks to Israel, Syria now has no army, navy or air force. It has only lightly armed factions such as HTS, other rebel militias like the misnamed Syrian National Army, and Kurdish groups.
Under CIA and Turkish tutelage, HTS could be strengthened, but only enough to repress dissent in Syria.
HTS would have powers but on licence. Its survival would depend on keeping things quiet for Israel, both through a reign of intimidation against other Syrian groups, including the Palestinian refugee population, who threaten to fight Israel, and by keeping out other regional actors resisting Israel, such as Iran and Hezbollah.
And as with Abbas, al-Julani’s rule in Syria would be territorially limited.
The Palestinian leader has to contend with the fact that large swaths of the West Bank have been carved out as Jewish settlements under Israeli rule, and that he has no access to critical resources, including acquifers, agricultural land and quarries.
Off-limits to HTS would likely be Kurdish areas policed by Turkey and the US, where much of the country’s oil is located, as well as a swath of terrority in Syria’s south-west that Israel has invaded over the past two weeks.
It is widely assumed Israel will annex these Syrian lands to extend its illegal occupation of the Golan, which it took from Syria in 1967.
‘Love’ for Israel
Al-Julani understands only too well the options ahead of him. Perhaps not surprisingly, he appears far keener to become a Syrian Abbas than a Syrian Yahya Sinwar, the Hamas leader killed by Israel in October.
Given his clean-cut military makeover, al-Julani may imagine that he can eventually upgrade himself to the Syrian equivalent of the US-backed leader of Ukraine, Volodmyr Zelenskiy.
However, Zelenskiy’s role has been to fight a proxy war against Russia, on behalf of Nato. Israel would never countenance a leader of a country on its border being given that kind of military muscle.
Al-Julani’s commanders have lost no time explaining that they have no beef with Israel and do not want to provoke hostilities with it.
The heady first days of HTS’s rule were marked by its leaders thanking Israel for helping it to take Syria by neutralising Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon. There were even declarations of “love” for Israel.
Such sentiments have not been dented by the Israeli army invading the large demilitarised zone inside Syria next to the Golan, in violation of the 1974 armistice agreement.
Nor have they been damaged by Israel’s relentless bombing of Syria’s infrastructure – a violation of sovereignty that the Nuremberg tribunal at the end of the Second World War decried as the supreme international crime.
This week al-Julani meekly suggested that Israel had secured its interests in Syria through air strikes and invasion and could now leave the country in peace.
“We do not want any conflict, whether with Israel or anyone else, and we will not let Syria be used as a launchpad for attacks [against Israel],” he told the London Times.
A Channel 4 reporter who tried last week to press an HTS spokesman into addressing Israel’s attacks on Syria was startled by the response.
Obeida Arnaout sounded as though he was following a carefully rehearsed script, reassuring Washington and Israeli officials that HTS had no bigger ambitions than emptying the bins regularly.
HTS spokesman Obeida Arnaout is asked by Channel 4 News about Israel’s strikes on over 300 sites in Syria (latest update: 480 strikes). He refused to denounce Israel’s massive airstrikes and ground incursions. When pressed, he offered vague, general comments. pic.twitter.com/cetEisYXIs
— Drop Site (@DropSiteNews) December 11, 2024
Asked how HTS viewed the attacks on its sovereignty by Israel, Arnaout would only reply: “Our priority is to restore security and services, revive civilian life and institutions and care for newly liberated cities. There are many urgent parts of day-to-day life to restore: bakeries, electricity, water, communications, so our priority is to provide those services to the people.”
It seems HTS is unwilling even to offer rhetorical opposition to Israeli war crimes on Syrian soil.
Wider ambitions
All of this leaves Israel in a strong position to entrench its gains and widen its regional ambitions.
Israel has announced plans to double the number of Jewish settlers living illegally on occupied Syrian territory in the Golan.
Meanwhile, Syrian communities newly under Israeli military rule – in areas Israel has invaded since Assad’s fall – have appealed to their nominal government in Damascus and other Arab states to persuade Israel to withdraw. With good reason, they fear they face permanent occupation.
Predictably, the same western elites so incensed by Russia’s violations of Ukraine’s territorial integrity that they have spent three years arming Kyiv in a proxy war against Moscow – risking a potential nuclear confrontation – have raised not a peep of concern at Israel’s ever deepening violations of Syria’s territorial integrity.
Once again, it is one rule for Israel, another for anyone Washington views as an enemy.
With Syria’s air defences out of the way, Israel now has a free run to Iran – either by itself or with US assistance – to attack the last target on the neocons’ seven-country hit list from 2001.
The Israeli media have excitedly reported on preparations for a strike, while the transition team working for incoming US president Donald Trump are said to be seriously considering joining such an operation.
And to top it all, Israel looks like it may finally be in sight of signing off on “normal” relations with Washington’s other major client state in the region, Saudi Arabia – a drive that had to be put on hold following Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Renewed ties between Israel and Riyadh are possible again in large part because coverage of Syria has further disappeared the Gaza genocide from the West’s news agenda, despite Palestinians there – starved and bombed by Israel for 14 months – likely dying in larger numbers than ever.
The narrative of Syria’s “liberation” currently dominates western coverage. But so far the takeover of Damascus by HTS appears only to have liberated Israel, leaving it freer to bully and terrorise its neighbours into submission.

HTS has two options. They can accept funds intended for development from Washington and other entities, and and become pliant tools of the West. These funds have no accountability, so they can be siphoned off into their personal bank accounts of HTS leaders. Or, if HTS shows any spine or concern for the Syrian national interest, then they can cease to exist. In their place, a plethora of moderate rebels is waiting to step up and receive millions of dollars, in exchange for doing the West’s bidding.
But what about the drones?
And Taylor swift? And the
pigskin games that are so much fun?
What are all of these facts in this article
really about? Some sort of pro pagan da?
Can’t we just celebrate the holy daze ?
I mean seriously, “what difference, at this point does it make “? His story repeats.
There are a number of dynamics at play now.
HTS or whatever they’re called (just group them as head choppers) are, as is becoming obvious, Turkish proxies.
The number one dynamic is what will the U.S do to prevent coming into conflict with a fellow NATO member? And if they do come into conflict with Turkey who gets the article 5 backing?
The Kurds, what are they going to do? Can they trust the Americans (definitely not) from stabbing them in the back and allow Turkey to do as they please, is it time for the Kurds to talk to Iran and offer their services to be a U.S irritant, and can Lebanon be brought into the picture, helping to push Turkey out of the North? Turkey may have a formidable army on paper but they’re poor and would go broke quickly if they were to keep an army in the field for any period, hence the proxy.
What is Russia going to do? Trust Erdogans word and stay (Putin is a fool if he does)? Or look for other homes…maybe Yemen, very powerful strategic position Yemen has.
And Israel, they have now made the question of any mercy toward them in the future mute, once the U.S fades Israel is finished. And Jordan now has Israel eyeing the next piece they want over their borders.
See what happens when your dis-united as a people, the likes of Israel/U.S just pick you off one by one.
Excellent article. Here’s the money quote:
So true. So consistent. So predictable.
All the pretentious noise coming out of Washington and our Zionist-occupied MSM about ‘The Rule of Law’ is a pathetic smokescreen. Rules and resolutions have–for decades–been ignored or twisted to accommodate Zio-Washington’s ruthless quest to 1) undermine all adversaries of Israel and 2) allow Israel to acquire more power and territory, no matter how many gentiles die in the process.
In fact, killing nearby non-Jews has become a desired feature–not an unsought byproduct–of Greater Israel’s agenda for achieving regional dominance.
Washington has been hijacked. It’s unadvertised mission is to subsidize and fight an international race-war serving Jews.
At the 2008 Arab League summit in Damascus, Muammar Gaddafi, the then-leader of Libya, issued a stark warning to his fellow Arab leaders, including Syria’s Bashar al-Assad, about the potential political downfall they could face. Gaddafi’s comments, which were largely dismissed or laughed off at the time. During the summit, Gaddafi expressed concerns about the future of the Arab world, predicting that many of the leaders present could soon face challenges to their rule. His remarks were reportedly met with laughter, particularly from Assad, who did not take the warning seriously. However, recent events have caused many to reflect on Gaddafi’s words with a sense of irony.
He warned that many Arab leaders hated one another far more than they hated the western leaders. He said the US came to Iraq, toppled then hung its leader, he warned that they themselves would face the same fate. Prophetic words.

Professor Norman Finkelstein in an interview with a Lebanese journalist after the 2006 war explains how easily a more powerful nation can subdue a weaker one, he used the German Occupation of France as an example, The Germans invaded France and installed Marshal Philippe Pétain a Vichy leader who served the interests of the Nazis in a similar way Mahmoud Abbas serves the Israelis. Less than 10% of the French supported the resistance, on the grounds that the Nazis were ruthless, for every German that was killed, 100 French men would pay the price. This worked for a long time and the French just accepted the occupation and got on with life. On reflection Finkelstein asks, who do the French venerate today, the resistance of the collaborators? There is only one answer.
Should read….the resistance or the collaborators?
What ever jew land wants, jew land gets, the US of A has ruled
The current Nationalist vote in France indicates that the veneration of the “resistance” is bogus post ww2 retconning of broad sympathy for the overall NatSoc program.
Hopefully, Syria will choose the former.
The Zionist state is a murderous outlaw and will wither on the vine once the empires decline accelerates.
Another 41 Palistinians murdered overnight, is that self defense? Nearly 200 Palistinians murdered in a week? Where is the Christian outrage in the west in this of the holiest time on the Christian calendar, why are we supporting non-christian to kill other non-christian…is this the Christian teaching?
I agree that it is preferable for Syria to rebuild and be a peaceful state, supporting the freedom and prosperity of its citizens. But I’m curious about why you prefer Syria to follow the West Bank model rather than the Gaza model. What is the reasoning?
The map made me laugh. The ISW is a neocon propaganda outfit, but puts out nice maps so is used by our media as a good source. It shows our American led mercenary force as “Kurdish led” and the invading Israeli army is “unidentified”!
LOL.
Since there are not so many of HTS, most of the terrorists are Israeli and Turkish soldiers dressed in NATO uniforms. Erdogan’s mother and grandmother were Jewish.
The leader of the rebels, Abu Mohammed Golani, is an Israeli. There are 2-3 Jewish villages in the Golan Heights. His father was an engineer who supplied the Israeli army. He was supposedly in prison and, in fact, trained with Ali Baghdadi for six years. They were trained to learn to behave like Arabs.
Ali Baghdadi was Samuel Elliot, also an Israeli agent. They were set up to be leaders to lead the Islamic armies. Ali Baghdadi was not killed, unless he was accidentally hit during the bombing.
The fate of the Syrians and the Lebanese now is genocide.
The Eastern Europeans want all of the area they claim as greater isreal–sans Arabs.
The West led by the USA will assist the genocide as they are now assisting the genocide in Palestine.
Petain mostly served the interest of France. Their government had proved incompetent by declaring war on Germany, failing to attack the Germans when they were busy in Poland, then losing in 1940. This was mostly because Churchill ordered British troops in France to cut and run so he could later destroy the French empire.
The Germans had no interest in running France and offered to withdraw if the British accepted a peace deal. Meanwhile, the Germans offered the defeated French a very generous deal. France could retain a small army, control southern France, and retain control of its large navy and overseas colonies. Petain accepted this generous deal, but Churchill did not approve and destroyed Vichy France.

Of this I fully agree.
This is a shallow analysis. Israel, the United States, and the Western Supremacists are simply racist, murderous megalomaniacs who have no morality and are totally lawless.
They have allowed Israel to do a second genocide after their monstrous crimes against the Palestinians. Israel has effectively cut the head off of any resistance in Syria.
I understand these people very well, having been their victim for 26 years and having my entire family (all of them, and myself, totally innocent) murdered by them.
One can easily ascertain Cook’s “analysis” from his distorted description of “dictator Bashar al-Assad” and Netanyahu’s Israeli “democracy.” With the American Goyim, Turkey’s Erdoğan and the Gulf’s cowards having their way, Syria will pass through a difficult time, just like Iraq did. But, Syria will recover. Having used the American Goyim to their potential, the Jews will have difficulty playing their card once the chaos is settled. The Syrian people are not as stupid and cowardly as the Israeli Jews. Cook and his ilk will continue their anti-Muslim racism and distortion of realities on the ground, serving the Jews just like the American Goyim. The primary aim is to remove Russia from the region. And that has been achieved. Remember Afghanistan 1988?
Anything for the Jews.
Germans got a new fuhrer in the form of Zion.

The killing of 100 people for every soldier killed by partisans was not just practiced by Germany.
I recall in the 1980s a German officer active in WWII was prosecuted in West Germany because in applying the 100x rule in response to a partisan killing he had killed something like 103 or 4 civilians. He was then prosecuted for the killing of those 3 or 4 people, as that was considered to have violated the wartime norm.
Which told me at the time that this had been standard practice by the allies as well.
That’s only the ‘money quote’ if you think the 2 operations are comparable. IDK if Cook intends to support anti-Russian bias by using that supposed analogy.
Meanwhile, here’s a ‘community note’ so accurate that it was quickly scrubbed…
Peace on Earth will come whether the Evil-Doers like it or not.
You can count on me to do my best to make it happen, with Justice for All.
‘Rules based order’…’Rules for you, not for Joo.’
It’s certainly an interpretation that ought to be stated more often.
So they don’t wind up wrecked like Gaza and we can see if all the optimism about Syria’s future can come true.
Sharaa, who took the nickname Abu Mohammad al-Julani, has been a MOSSAD AGENT, all these years.
Danish politician and former economic analyst Mads Palsvig uploaded an exceptionally viral post that accused al-Sharaa of being a Mossad mole. Palsvig insinuated that Julani was a Jew named Yonatan Zvi David, The following is his tweet:
others also refer to Jolali as a MOSSAD agent.
“Why is there no knowledge of Abu Muhammad al-Julani’s family? Look it up and make sure. It is very likely that he will turn out to be like Abu Hafs, the preacher of the Libyan mosque, who turned out to be a Jewish officer in the Israeli Mossad.” This deceptional MAFIA Tribe must be destroyed.
A Houthi newspaper from Yemen published a caricature showing Julani being controlled as a puppet by Erdogan, which in turn was controlled by Israel and the US.
The genocidal Mossad are in the north of Iraq directing the traitor KURD for another massacare:
Kurdish official reveals Erbil is ‘a hub’ for the Mossad. The genocidal Tribe must be wiped out the map
And thus my father side family all members along with the whole village in Orel region were exterminated by ersatz command. My father only stayed alive because he and his mother moved to Orel proper few months prior. That happened after my father’s dad was hang by Germans as partisan.
It looks like locals are following Jewish dictum but in reverse. As jews tend to ask if it is good for jews, local authors and public tend to ask if this will hurt jews. If it does not, they immediately brand those as jewish stooges. Israel overall is doing right thing for Israel. Keep your enemies divided and in constant state of confusion. There is obviously some luck because the whole process of Assad fall was started by Turkey, however by destroying Hezbollah and hurting Iran , Israel helped along the way and Ukrainian war drained Russia resources in Syria exposing it as truly regional power. I used to laugh at this and gas station meme, but it looks like it is true.
Yes, French history of then is full of rubbish myths.
Conveniently forget:
that France abortively attacked National-Socialist Germany many months (about a year IIRC) before the Blitzkrieg defeated their forces;
that Germany intended to withdraw from all occupied parts of France and only occupied those parts for obvious military reasons, and that only the Italians intended to retain the small part of the south-east that they had occupied, where people spoke an intermediate dialect anyway;
that Petain was very popular and was a legitimate head of state at the time;
that the British attacked the French fleet, sinking the ships and killing thousands of French seamen;
that UK/US terror bombing continued in ‘liberated’ areas for months after liberation;
that the ‘resistance’ was in many areas heavily jewish-controlled;
that the ‘resistance’ wantonly murdered at least 100,000 French people post liberation;
that it all had a strange bias, for example, Simone de Bovine had been a ‘collaborator’ for years, running a regular official radio programme in the occupied zone but neither was executed nor had her head shaved and paraded through the streets, also the case for her sleazy lover Sartre;
and the list could continue.
“ Less than 10% of the French supported the resistance, on the grounds that the Nazis were ruthless, for every German that was killed, 100 French men would pay the price.”
The relationship between the occupying German troops and the French population at large were fairly cordial. Hitler had issued strict orders to his troops in France to behave in a disciplined and legal way abiding by the rules of the Geneva convention. What muddied the waters for both the largely French Catholic population and the occupying German troops was the resistance made up of mostly Jews and communist partisans. The actions of the resistance, which on its own would have never dislodged the German army from French territory, caused great collateral damage to the French population.
When the Allies invaded France from Normandy, more French civilians were killed in a few weeks by the Allied troops than all of those killed by the Germans.
Unfortunately, judging by how French leaders are acting today towards Russia, proves that they have learned nothing from the lesson of their alliance with the Anglo-American Empire during WWII.
Before I moved to the land of milk and honey (now the land of vinegar and vinegar) I lived in a country with 2 radio stations. Both were government controlled and both spouted horseshit all day. It got so that the population would tune in only for the music programs.
Looking back, what I abhorred is now what I miss the most ie a propaganda blackout. We have so many podcasters/ authors each with a definitive opinion it makes my head spin. Besides that it looks like every nincompoop has a show. Last night at a friend I looked at a Yutube video of a black woman with thick lips and blond hair wax about the Bundeswehr while snacking on chips. We also have guys commenting on the most idiotic movies as if they were discussing English literature.
Syria falls into the same category. Its the “latest” drama attracting commentators like shit attracts flies. Everyone knows who will do what, what will happen and so forth.
Personally, there is not much I can do about the ME and so I cannot be bothered. However I see family and friends slobbering at the mouth and worked up into a frenzy at the “injustice” of it all. They expend a lot of time on this crap, time they could use for far more productive purposes.
Lets face it, the powers that be dont give a shit what is right or wrong, they act in accordance with their interests. The rabble can rail against all this but it makes no difference. In the meantime the people who holler about “something must be done” are just basement warriors. What they mean is something must be done by others. In the meantime they yell profanities at their computer screems. Voting in TV personalities and blathering real estate tycoons with their mouths full of sugar and promises and hoping for change is self delusional.
Getting all excited about one exciting event after another is the government’s way of keeping the population off balance. That, and the fact that Western people dont have any balls means they must swallow whatever shit is shoveled their way.
Hillary was correct to a certain point. She would have been bang on if she had said 80% of the US public are idiots.
This is yet another website for the globalist to learn the thinking of people who oppose the globalists.
Meanwhile, in the Nazified Ukraine, jews in power are doing their usual jewish thing of hatred, destruction, and mass murder:
“‘Ethnic Jews’ tearing apart Christian church in Ukraine:” https://www.rt.com/russia/609671-putin-ukraine-church-zelensky/
Comments:
Jews have these same form of psychosis against Iranians, Germans, Iraqis, Polaks, Palestinians, Syrians, Libyans, and, very soon, against Americans. The supremacists tribe thrives on hatred which makes jews incapable of creating their own civilization. Leeches.
It always proper to remind the decent people that ALL major jewish organizations have been supporting the ongoing Genocide in Palestine. Nothing makes holocaustianians happier than the death of Palestinian children and women by carpet bombing and white phosphorous burning.
Global jewry/zionists live by predation and lying; see Kol Nidre and Holo-museums.
Kol Nidre, the indoctrination in treachery and dishonesty, is part of an annual jewish ritual.
The dishonorable tribe of whining predators indoctrinates their children (from infancy) in disrespect and hatred towards a host society. At these same time, jews are unable to live without leeching on some other people. The results are the likes of Milejkowsky, Cardin, Schumer, Wasserman Schultz, Lévy, Sarkozy, Mirvis, Snot-rich, Gvir, Dershowitz, Wexner, Brandeis, Warburg, Schiff, and similar amoral degenerates living by the rule “is this good for jews” for the expense of dignity.
And apparently the censorship of the X (tweet) showing the idiot duel citizen Congressidiot in his IDF uniform in full gaslighting genocidal murder mode has struck UNZ because the link is no longer available.
Is this thus a third rail now exposed at UNZ Review or is it just simply a matter that the X link has gone down?
The issue of dual citizenship is actually one of the most important and dangerous relative to the can of worms held in the ark of the congressional covenant that the likes of Cynthia Mckinney and Thomas Massie have had the guts to not drink from the can of worms….The issue is really clean and simple and thus can be administered quite simple, but that does not mean it is easy….but it is easier if a sense of humor is involved as the X tweet did show how absurd the said Congressman looks…
I suppose the application of a lawsuit, against Congress as an entity, which may or may not be registered as Deleware based corporation, doing business as, the U.S. Congress, to enforce what laws protect the people against such foreign agents….maybe this is the great fear of MAGA that it actual attacks the MEGA operatives of the Bronfman clams….which now takes us to Canada… which his recently in the news, relative to a hemespheric attack on the nation state from #Trump’sGenocideNow
Trust none of them is the moral to the story!
Along with study the law and remember that the key to Hebraic proficiencies that makes up for average I.Q.is found in studying while engaging a rocking motion of steady metronomic rythmn such that the dreaded subjects become transformed into a mild alpha state, to which information is then dolled out into bits that are then compounded through the metronomic, which then instills a certain rythmic mathematical nesting to which the intellect entrains to play with the subject i a state conducive to learning and serving as a nesting mechanism, surrounded by books… thus the ability to memorize say the federal rules of civil procedure might be an example…or to balance one’s books upon memorized visualized ledgers that can be changed real time, just like a computer, but done and learned in the family, for that is how it was all done, and of course not just the jews, but you do see the influence preserved in what is a habitualized social custom…
Drill baby, drill… that being the new mantra of Trump, we have nothing to worry about in the Middle East save the security of Israel or do we… China owns the burden of being the world’s policeman now. Best of luck!
80% are cunts.
Yes, Elliot Schimon aha Al Bagdadu, along with other American and eastern European field commanders were airlifted back to occupied Palestine when Russia destroyed ISIS operations in Syria.
American military tattoos and star of moloch necklaces were clearly seen in photos of the field commanders,
One person can’t solve the problem, that requires the entire nation to do something. But they won’t. This is why every time someone says to people from a country without firearms “You never should have given up your guns.” I then have to remind the twats that America is the most heavily armed nation in the world and the people are STILL COWARDS and won’t do shit or try to do anything.
Now they make up excuses “They have droins, they have tanks, they have jets, they have this they have that!”
They also still believe voting works. Before Trump was even selected, people were constantly attacking Harris voters like somehow if you voted for her the situation will get worse. Vote for Trump and he’s going to fix all the problems never mind the fact he took credit for a death shot, told B to attack Irans Nuclear facilities like the asshole that he is and is making threats over hostages and shit. He talks about ending the war in Ukraine but never says anything about ending the one in the Middle East since he fully supports it, and this is the guy who is going to “save the world.”
A thousand “agrees” Annamaria, thank you.
Chinas business is business it makes long term deals that benefit both parties. Unlike the USA who come in like buccaneers to loot the place under the guise of “world police”.
its western backed andarmed in power now. good for turky and of course. the zionists
I agree with the title. A government and financial system will quickly be put in place…controlled by sanctions from the west. The locals had better learn pipeline construction or some other trade skill because anyone of adult age not paying enough tax figures to get the vax or the axe…all enforced by the goon squad.

Here’s another try:
How much of a spine can a 30 thousand man army present?
What is it about HTS you are ignoring?
HTS is a p r o x y. It is an occupation gang. It allows Erdogan to occupy Syria without being an occupier.
Hired guns know nothing of running a country and it’s economy. To say that HTS is going to follow Sharia is like saying a 10 year old understands and follows the US Constitution.
There are no peaceful states in the ME. Only states that submit to Shitrahell or those that stand up to its utter dependence on a waining empire.
No matter how you cut it Shitrahell will not see its 80th birthday.
There is a differing account here:
Revealed: How Israel’s plan to carve up Syria was thwarted by Assad’s downfall
Security sources tell MEE Israel wanted to keep Assad in power under Emirati tutelage while establishing military and strategic ties with the Kurds in the northeast and the Druze in the south
The overthrow of Bashar al-Assad’s government thwarted an Israeli plan to divide Syria into three blocks in order to sever its ties with Iran and Hezbollah, according to regional security sources briefed about the plot…
https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/revealed-how-assads-downfall-thwarted-israels-plan-carve-syria
Still, better to have an armed populace than a disarmed populace.
On condition of breakdown, some of the state police and armed forces may join the people. That seems very unlikely with a totally disarmed civilian population.
is this a bot? First he said Russian, and then in another post it says Israeli uniform.
Syria was doing just fine prior to 2011. It had allowed in some Western finance. It had a good agricultural sector, oil and industry. Assad just made the mistake of not allowing a complete takeover by Western interests. That is not allowed. And then came the sanctions, and then came the Western-backed terrorist groups to put the final nail in the coffin.
When these countries were carved up initially, they were purposely carved up to ensure future infighting. And if no infighting ensued, then it was brought to them by the West.
Israel’s day will come. It will come and it won’t be pretty. And when it does, no one will feel sorry for them.
{{Cook and his ilk will continue their anti-Muslim racism and distortion of realities on the ground, serving the Jews just like the American Goyim.}}
He cannot do anything else, because Cook became Israeli Citizen more than a decade ago.
BS, Russians have NO problem in Syria and their bases remains in Syria. The West may want them to go, but Israel wants Russia to stay because is a close ally of Israel and helped Netanyahu to have information regarding the movement of Iranian so Netanyahu could bomb them as soon as they arrive in Syria. Russia cannot be trusted and close to Zionism and Pan Turkism.
The primary goal is to destroy Iran. Russia is on board. Russia has already made a deal with the West and Israel to support ‘greater Israel’ along with Turkey. Putin is a traitor where Russia gains CONCESSIONS through SELLING others. Russia is against Iran nuclear program and has voted many times, at least 3 times, with the West against Iran. Russia will COOPERATE with Israel and the West against Iran.
Putin obtained concessions from the west, Trump a zionist whore, selling Syria which was an ally of the resistance so Russia gets Concession in Ukraine. There is no doubt about it. Russia sold Libya to gain concession from the west. Russia CANNOT do a damn thing on her own, but to sell others to survive. Russia will sell Iran and China if the west gives Russia concession to survive, and let Russia to live. But West will not stop until Russia is totally destroyed. Russia can buy few bones in the short time, but in the long time will be destroyed if she put knife on other’s backs. Down with traitors, Down with Putin, a Zionist who is working with Israel for the ‘greater Israel’ selling partners, one after the other.
Russia along with UK/US voted for the erection of Israel to be PLANTED in the heart of Arab land to benefit the West. Russia view establishment of Israel in other people’s land the same as UK/US, that’s why ugly Lavrov always said the same stupid line: Israel has a right to defend herself. We spid at Lavrov. Putin still wants to lick West’s behind to permit him to serve the interests of Jews, but the Neocons don’t trust him. Putin like the Jews is a coward, and the coward people cannot do anything by themselves. That’s why they need hands out by the west to survivd.
The only thing that’s going to come out of this is Neighbor Vs Neighbor, while the assholes who caused all this crap to happen will be somewhere hidden with the full armed to the teeth military guarding them and everyone else will just fight it out in the streets.
It’s one thing if being heavily armed meant everyone would gang up on the traitors that caused the problems and crises but I don’t see that happening in a country like America, I see a different scenario where mfers armed with guns will be out murdering each other over scarce resources.
Look how everyone acted during Covoid. You had people hording shit, and then trying to overcharge for the stuff they were hording. People were selling diapers and toilet paper for the price you’d pay to buy a goddamn cell phone. It was all kinds of fucked up how opportunist tried to take advantage of the situation, and it would be much worse when everything collapses because the Gov did it intentionally.
Explain why you believe this, I’d like to know. Whats going to happen on it’s 80th birthday?
“Or, better still, Syria could be turned into another failed state like Libya after Muammar Gaddafi’s ousting and killing in 2011 with the help of Nato. Libya has been run by warlords ever since.”
This is the perfect outcome for Israel/ US– as John Bolton called it “The Libya Model”. Biden or Trump makes no difference. Kill, kill, kill! is the American motto these days.
The messianic zionist demons from hell in Israel are loose on the people of the middle east to rape and kill and pillage and destroy everything in sight and are joined in this murderous rampage by their sponsors in the zionist demonic controlled ZUS regime to burn, loot and murder everyone in sight.
ISIS and AL-CIA-DA and HTS are all creations of the Mossad and CIA and MI6 and their regimes Isra-hell and the ZUS and ZBritain and ZNATO and their operation Gladio, aka spreading chaos and terrorism where ever these terrorists get their claws into a country that is selected for regime change, and some day it is going to happen right here in America.
Messianic zionists are destroyers of nations and humanity and it is on display every where in the world, these are demons from the depths of hell.
I want to reiterate what I’ve been saying since before 10/7
That Nasrallah, Assad and the Mullahs are and have been controlled opposition.
Just today the traitorous Hezbollah elite announced the following
https://thecradle.co/articles/hezbollah-will-not-confront-israeli-ceasefire-violations-with-force-lebanon-is-our-priority
In other words
The Israelis can kill anyone in Lebanon and Hezbollah will not retaliate
This along with mountains of evidence proves beyond a doubt that Hezbollah is and was in bed with the Israelis.
From there critical thinking leads one to the inexorable conclusion that Assad and the Mullahs are also traitors
But the astounding implications do not end there.
It also means that Putin and Xi who go along with this charade are also fake Jew owned controlled opposition.
What does this mean?
It means that Americans should ditch this fake Jew controlled US empire.
HTS stands for “Hired Terrorists in Syria” who don’t know how to run an army much less than a country such as Syria. Whatever Assad’s faults might be — and there are many — Syria post Assad is going to be another Libya. And that’s the best case. Worst case: Israel, Turkey and USA/UK dismembers “Syria” which ceases to exist as an Arab nation in the Middle East.
Sharia is a bit like child’s play: there isn’t much nuance and the penalty is often death. HTS can hire one hardcore Islamic scholar as top dog to interpret the Sharia for the whole of Syria and turn him loose. The US Constitution and its interpretation is, on the other hand, much more complicated.
It’s based on an assertion held among numerous Jews that no Jewish state/kingdom has ever endured beyond eighty years. Even former PM Ehud Barak harbors this fear:
Former Israeli Premier: Israel Could Cease to Exist before 80th Anniversary
https://www.palestinechronicle.com/former-israeli-premier-israel-could-cease-to-exist-before-80th-anniversary/
I can’t vouch for Barak or others who share this concern, but the claim that Israel’s days in occupied Palestine are numbered is certainly not irrational.
Sure, it doesn’t look that way at all right now. In fact, it looks as though Israel will get what it wants insofar as its regional ambitions are concerned.
Yet Israel’s primary problem is less the enemy without than the one within. As the old adage goes, demography is destiny, and in Israel, the intelligentsia that have brought material prosperity to the country do not have nearly as many children as their ultra-orthodox counterpart, a constituency that is in the process of ripping the mask of secular democracy clean off and driving the economy further earthward. (Not there just yet, but very close.)
In one generation, the now ascendant and quite powerful ultra-orthodox will have supplanted the more secular Jews of Israel, resulting in a profound brain drain that will severely weaken both the nation’s economy and military. No amount of American support will be able to sustain the debacle it’s destined to become.
So Barak might be off by about two decades or so, but the main idea is still sound.
Fight the american and british enemy and free your people and country from this sick and criminal scum, who have murdered your ancestors, your people and have robbed your people. Drive them completely out with legal means!
Fight and stand up for your people and children!
Are you Syrius? Emulating Israel’s success is the key for all middle eastern Camel Republics.
Syria’s fate was outlined in the Oded Yinon Plan, decades ago. Vivisection into powerless statelets, along sectarian, tribal etc lines. Libya writ large, Iran awaits.
The Zionazi entity, as many regional leaders long observed, is a CANCER, eating away at its neighbours, grinding on, remorselessly, towards ‘Eretz Yisrael’, ‘..from the Nile to the Euphrates’. ‘Damascus belongs to the Jews’, as Snotrich declared several years ago. A city several thousand years older than Judaism, belongs to the genocide cult, because some rabbis, centuries ago, coveted its wealth and power. And in their INSANE ravings, they declared the ENTIRE was world to be destined to be ruled by the Jews.
In Europe in the 20th century, those who understood Judaism saw the threat it posed to humanity. They came to a decision, in many places, to cure the disease by exterminating the Jews. That, of course, is utterly insane, evil and impermissible, being against all decent morality, impossible to achieve in any case, and because it is so very Judaic. Take that path and you become Judaic yourself.
‘Kill, kill, kill’ has ALWAYS been the Yankee credo. Derived directly from the hideous blood-lust of Judaism.
That Nasrallah, Assad and the Mullahs are and have been controlled opposition.
Down with Mossad Troll at this site.
Moron. Racist. Meanmeanjewjew prefers the West Bank model, ie slow murder and remorseless land theft, to the Gazan, ie mass murder and a typically Judaic FRENZY of torture, rape, slaughter, child murder etc, because the fun and religious celebration can be stretched out. In the West Bank the population ca be controlled by PA sonderkommandoes, reducing the loss of ‘precious Jewish souls’ among the IDF. In the end the usual fate awaits the Palestinians-leave, submit, forever, or die. The Zionazi credo.
Do you think the U.S could do what they do if people took their soldiers out everywhere in the middle-east?
Look at Vietnam, the vast majority fought until the Americans were gone, Afghanistan never rested to the Americans were gone, how many Americans have being killed in the middle-east of late? And how many bases are still in middle-east countries?
That’s the problem, the tolerance of an invader to stay unmolested. The people don’t need permission to oppose these occupiers from the occupiers puppets.
Thats what I mean about disunity…a lack of combined effort to make the U.S pay a significant cost, they should never have a moment’s rest.
Yikes
Syria – unlike Libya – is too close to Israel for the jews to leave it destabilized. This will all shake out with a Zio-Stooge strongman leader with the full backing of the CIA/JewSA as leader of Syria just like in Egypt and Jordan. Turkey will get free reign in N Syria to deal with the Kurds. The Yinon Plan – funded by sales of Iraqi and Syrian oil to Europe in some nice new pipelines through Syria – proceeds.
Agree, mate.
Uj-huh. Stand in front of your mirror and repeat this statement. You will grow old, gray and more decrepit while nothing happens to Israel other than it gets better and more secure.
That’s why I respect the Vietnamese people.

Down with Russia, Shame on Zionist Putin, a coward and a liar.
I just read a piece by PCR who wrote the following:
If Putin has said this LIE, everyone must call and view him a Zionist Coward and a liar. The opposite is TRUE. Due to demand from genocidal Netanyahu, Putin forced Assad to reduce Iranian personnel in Syria, and allowed Israel to bomb Syria on a daily bases and forced Assad not to respond, let Israel do it. Most like, Russia gave information regarding Iranian’s position and movement, because many Iranians claim that we were bombed as soon as our plain arrived in Syria. Who might have given the information?Traitor Russins. Now, Iranian send a delegate led by Larijani, former parliament spokesman, to have permission to fight with Syrian army against ISIS, the US/Israel proxies, but due to Putin’s control over Assad, he did not allow Iranian to do so. Iranian were the TARGET of the Jihadists NOT RUSSIANS. Russian embassy left untouched, but the Iranian embassy sacked. Russia bases also remained in Syria. Shame on Zionist Putin, a coward and a liar.
Iranian personnel in Syria was small due to Zionist Putin pressure on Assad to force them out, and gave the information to Mossad regarding Iranian arrival in Syria, so Netanyahu could bomb them as their plain touched the airport. Death to Zionist traitors and liars.
That’s why Iranian could not save Assad since Assad did not want to fight the ISIS, trained by Turkey and Israel. Putin played an important role as a zionist and an ally of Netanyahu in Assad’s FALL.
Now, this coward is spreading lies to justify his betrayal and his deal with the Zionist mafia tribe.
PCR writes:
Russia along with UK/US designed and implemented the ‘Israel Project’ against the interests of Muslims in the heart of the Arab world. He is the enemy of all Muslims and a servant to the zionist genocidal tribe. Putin is also a servant to Zionist Pan Turkism where all the regional states must realize this fact to stop Russia threat to the regional states to obtain few BONES to chew on for her survival. Russia should be exposed all over the world as an enemy of Muslim states that are not UNDER control of Zionist mass murderers and Bankers like Russia. China must know Russia is using China for his interest because Russia is TOO weak to survive on her own. He sells all his collected chips to gain support from the West. He never cut ties with the West and never will. Russia was KICKED OUT by the West NOT vice versa, because the neocns are seeking her destruction, the sooner, the better. Russia never formed proxy of her own and always worked ALONE, therefore, is very weak and needs the support of the genocidal zionists and pan Turkish to survive against the Neocons. He remains dependent on these forces’ HAND OUT in exchange Russia sells one of his card, yesterday, Libya, Today Syria, tomorrow Iran, even China if she could.

Except what they have in Germany is NOT a liberal democracy.
It’s global vassalage under ultra-tribal supremacist Jewry.
If Germany were truly liberal and democratic, there would be open discussion of its problems, and the great replacement could have been addressed. But illiberal Germany suppresses much-needed speech.

Jewish contempt for Christianity on display once more:
Maybe MI 6 could resurrect the ol’ A J Quinnell The Mahdi, with the Christian Zios being gobsmacked by the Messiah Drone:) GRAHAM FULLER- WTF
After World War II, Jews pushed a dichotomy of authoritarian, traditionalist, and ‘heteronormative’ right-wing Germany crushing liberty, oppressing minorities, waging wars, and doing genocide VERSUS the relative freedom and tolerance of the Weimar Era, in which Jews thrived amidst the economic and cultural turmoil.
Jews romanticized the Weimar era of supposed freedom and liberties. And even if there was cultural decadence, such stood against the authoritarian repression of fascism as the foundation of future wars and even genocide.
But what Israel teaches is that Weimar-like conditions and Nazi-like policies can co-exist side by side. Israel is called the ‘gayest country’ in the world but it is also the most racial supremacist. All sorts of sexual perversions are allowed in Israel but that doesn’t prevent Jews from committing horrors in Gaza and enforcing apartheid in West Bank. Women serve in the military but they too are okay with mass slaughter and genocide. Israeli soldiers are allowed to indulge in perversions, but that hasn’t made them more tolerant. It made them anal-rape Palestinian prisoners and celebrate the brutality.
Here is Weimarism and Nazism together in one picture. Jews have become Weimazis.
“Syria’s status looks sealed as a permanently failed state.”
Syria was no more a failed state than Libya and Lebanon were before “israel” and the US destroyed them.
West Asia main problem is :
1/ “israel”
2/ The US and their junior partners
The real problem is that Arabs are too easily bought, divided and in fight with each others. This lack of intelligence is the reason why a small and fake state like “Israel” could take them on one by one with the help of its first servant, the US.
Egypt, Jordan, Saudi, Qatar, Lebanon in parts are all US puppet regimes.
This region needs a leader like Nasser more than ever.
And Iran will be well inspired to acquire nuclear weapons asap.
Nope, I’m on the side of the side of the Palestinians, not the squatters
The assertion that Hezbollah takes its orders from Tel Aviv should be obvious after what happened in Lebanon
Hezbollah all0wed and gave targeting information to the Israelis so they could systematically assassinate every Hezbollah commander and those who would replace them
And never once retaliated in kind
Never any blood for blood
There’s no other explanation for the catastrophic events in Lebanon except that Hezbollah was working with the Israelis.
Or are you telling me that Hezbollah won a great victory over the Israelis?
BREAKING NEWS
Unbelievable but… unsurprising.
He is a terrorist but the bastard is OUR terrorist and the pantomime of pretending we are “negotiating” with him requires that we mime treating him with respect. When they met him they thought he had cleaned up well and gave him an exfra change of clothes. Their briefing to Netanyahu spoke well of him.
US withdraws $10 million bounty for new Syrian leader
Washington’s envoy said it would be “incoherent” to negotiate with someone on a US wanted terrorist list. The US will no longer offer a $10 million reward for information leading to the capture of Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa, better known by his nom de guerre Abu Mohammad al-Julani, following Washington delegation’s meeting with the leadership of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) in Damascus on Friday.

Destruction of Syria & Cold Peace in Ukraine – John Mearsheimer

As far as I know, the rule of shooting 100 civilians for one killed German soldier and 50 civilians for one wounded soldier was in force only in Serbia. There, at the beginning of the German occupation, there was an intense and real armed resistance movement (not some Alo-Alo resistance), during which a free territory was created for the first time in Europe.
The Germans began mass shootings of civilians in cities in Serbia (several thousand each), during which children taken out of school and children under the age of 10 were also shot.
“Israel, Not the ‘Liberators’ of Damascus, Will Decide Syria’s Fate”
Then it will be the worst possible fate. When the fate of non-Jews is up to Jews, the non-Jews always get the worst possible fate. That was true of Ukrainians in the 1930s, it is true of Americans at present, and it will be true of Syrians.
Russia is a “truly regional power.” That is a strange observation of a military that
has the largest nuclear arsenal and the most varied means of delivery, including
hypersonic missiles for which there is no defense.
Putin will not confront the formidable U.S. Naval and Air Forces in the Eastern
Mediterranean while Russia is tied down in Ukraine, and undoubtedly that was
also factored into the Pentagon strategy in planning both current Wars with the
two in situ Jews, Zelensky and Netanyahu. Who is the “cohencidence man,” and
why is he always right?
It was our dear Russian friends and key intelligence people in Syria who collaborated with us in Israel, not Hezbollah, sunni Arab dirtbag. We worked together to thwart Iran in Syria. THAT’S WHY IRAN GAVE UP.
Recent events of the past 3 years completely unmasked any attempt to see Russia other than regional power and gas station which it is. Failures on all fronts, inability to industrialize and modernize, demographic catastrophe and in this situation Putin gets Russia into what Russia needed the least. The war! The man is pathetic. Seeing his smiling mug when tens of thousand Russians are being killed and mutilated is nauseatic. Russia loss of Syria is a proof enough that Russia has got little resources to spare even fighting Ukraine alone. The third world country with population 4 times smaller that of Russia and on Russia border. Russia foreighn policy is failure as well as Russia failed to break anyone form USA, failed to get allies. It just became China and India gas station selling natural resources to them far cheaper than to so called “enemies”. So called “friends” are collapsing whatever left of Russia own manufacturing by conquering Russia markets. I mean China. Russia has lost 50% of its Black sea fleet to Ukraine which has none. You want to hear more? Unlike you I read and watch Russia news and not only official channels.
There are a lot of reports coming out saying that Russia and Iran both abandoned Syria at a December conference in Doha. The “Alt media” is not talking about any of these reports.

@Yababa
{THAT’S WHY IRAN GAVE UP}
Iran never gave up, it was Russia that SOLD Syria to gain concession. Russia is WEAK and the only way she has survived is due to selling others to gain concession to live.
Iran immediately send a team to Syria to meet with Assad and told him Iran will fight with the Syria army to defeat the terrorists. But, Assad a secular Arabist, was dependent to Putin and putin told him to reject and I will save you and your family. give up.
Iranian could not stay to fight when Assad and Army are not willing to do so, then they returned.
Putin, behind Assad back, made a DEAL with Trump and the zionists to let Syria FALLS for concessions in Ukraine.
The zionist traitor, putin, was in Syria to control Assad and the Iranian positions. Putin made agreement with Netnayahu, behind Assad’s back, that Russia will cooperate with Israel against Iranian activities in Syria, thus, forced Assad to reduce greatly the number of Iranians in Syria. Putin is a zionist traitor.
Since American terrorists and thieves have occupied the oil wells stealing millions of dollar on a daily bases, and some of this oil is helping the genocide in Gaza, then Iran with a lot of obstacles mad e by Russia against Iran, was transferring FREE OIL to Syria to help its economy, not Russia who has bases in Syria and they have been remained UNTOUCH, so Russian embassy, not for Iran. Russians were transferring information regarding the whereabouts of Iranians and Hezbollah to Netanyahu, to be easy to target them and kill them as soon as their plane touched the airport. Many Iranians who were transferring essential items to Syria were killed due to Russian treason against Iranians, Putin is lying to hide Putin and Russian TREASON in Syria for few bones he is going to receive. He made a deal with Trump to sell Assad for a concession in Ukraine. Shame on zionist Putin, an ally of the genocidal Netanyahu and an ASSASSIN whore, trump. Down with Russia.
Hey proud Israeli baby killer (hated by everyone on the planet)
I’ve been saying for years that Putin is a fake Jew owned shill.
If that is the case so too were their “allies” in the ME Assad and Hezbollah elite and the Mullahs.
If I on the other side of the world can see this, you can bet Arabs in the ME can see this too.
Meaning no more fooling the Arabs into thinking Israeli shill leaders are legit
Up until 10/7 it was easy and convenient for the Arabs of Syria and Lebanon to have Israeli owned traitors running their respective countries
10/7 showed them they were being pennywise and pound foolish
Now they’ll have a job driving out the brazenly pro Israeli regimes
But it will be done
Regardless 10/7 has forced Israel to do things it never wanted to do, like biting off more than it can chew by occupying more Arab land and creating a visceral hatred towards the squatters that had not existed before
The squatter colony is doomed and you know it baby killer
BTW, just a reminder Israeli
Everybody hates baby-killers
The whole Middle East war just because of a few ridiculous cigars? That seems a bit preposterous, since we all know, corruption is downright a Jewish invention. Do the Jews know that in the end they will be called to account for everything they do and have to give up their criminal base “Israel”, and want to cover themselves in time: “It was all just the evil Bibi! We have nothing to do with it!” Maybe they just want to prove to us that they have a “functioning democracy”.

Putin and Urdogan let Syria falls, Putin is a close ally of a genocidal scum and Erdogan helped the genocide by allowing the flow of Stolen OIL from Baku through Turkey to reach Israel to kill Palestinian toddlers.
putin is a partner in Genocide with Netanyahu where forced Assad not to stage retaliatory attack when Israel was bombing Syria on a daily basis. Putin and Erdogan are complicit in the genocide in Gaza and Lebanon like Biden, Trump and Blinken.
Here is another great article from the venezuelan progressive website Aporrea.org (translated from spanish)
Syria: It’s All About Money, Money, Money
By: Martin Jay | Saturday, 12/21/2024 02:00 AM | Printable version
Source of article: https://www.aporrea.org/internacionales/a337067.html
Western politicians are working hard to put the wool in the eyes of the naïve public that is dizzy and confused about the overthrow of the Assad regime, as some more astute members of the public might question how it is possible that now that the jihadists are in control of Damascus, if not only were they paid with US taxpayer dollars but have a boss who is on the list of the jihadists. wanted in the United States / for being a terrorist.
A step forward is the super actor and Prime Minister David Lammy, a black version of the babbling character of the comic called Magú. However, Mr. Lammy is not as stupid as he seems, so pay attention to his fortuitous nuances in the British parliament to explain everything to his voters who he believes to be more or less morons.
Prime Minister Brendan O’Hara recently made a statement justifying the Israeli bombing of Syria that coincided with the seizure of Damascus by the terrorist group HTS presumably to ensure that heavy artillery, planes and ships did not fall into the hands of the batch of smelly bearded men who, God forbid, they could use them against their sponsors. Is the United States learning the lesson of the incredibly abysmal and stupid operation in Afghanistan, where U.S. soldiers left the Taliban armored vehicles, tanks, and even planes before fleeing? Possibly. But, there may well be other reasons such as that the Americans may be considering a second operation where they or their managers – could desire those now in power.
This could not be as far-fetched as it sounds, given the number of simple lies that are being stirred up at the moment and that are duly processed by a league of telephone journalists who are not even able to find Homs on a map of Syria. “The group we supported to overthrow Assad turned out to be unserious about turning the page. Joulani cannot be trusted, that is known.” It would be the kind of thing offered to a batch of journalists at a White House press conference, which most of the public swallows.
Meanwhile, the dispersions of lazy MPs are worth a goose.
“The right thing to do is to understand that Israel has legitimate concerns about its security because of a country that has harbored ISIS (ISIL) and al-Qaida,” Lammy said in response to a question from MK Brendan O’Hara, adding that he had spoken to his Israeli counterpart.
“It is because of all these reasons that we want an inclusive society that encompasses everyone, but none of us can have contacts with terrorist groups,” he said.
Strange is that he forgot to mention that those same terrorist groups to which he refers are on the payrolls of the United States and are aligned with both the United States and England. Or does that mean that now those terrorist groups have handed over the Assad regime to the United States and Israel and that their role is now no longer relevant and therefore must now be eliminated?
It is difficult to measure Lammy’s double chatter, it is evident that the man, hardly himself understands the painting of Syria and seems to be reading a script.
After all, Lammy was recently singled out by an independent British research group that identified about a dozen MPs in the cabinet who had received money from Israel. After all, the history of Syria is a history of deception, betrayal and manure on a grand scale so it would seem appropriate that British MPs who enjoy Israeli money should also support the agenda of items to be discussed in the IDF (Israel Defense Force). Ultimately, it was money that played a big role in the bloodless coup d’état that was very successful, so it seems then that it will be money that will now dictate the narrative in the UK. Of course, the weakening of Hezbollah in Lebanon and Russia, which no longer supports Assad, were also factors. But money played its part. Currently the average bearded thug, AK and everyone in the HTS earns about two thousand dollars a month. By no means a large sum. But in Syria, one of the poorest countries in the world with a constantly devalued currency, this sum is significant for a soldier in the Syrian army who earns just seven dollars a month.
An agreement was reached, hence the soldiers of the regime did not fight.
These were the same soldiers who had to resort to making and selling Captagon pills in the region, simply to earn a little money to pay for their monthly food. Likewise, the year 2003, when the U.S. government refused to return the pay of Saddam’s soldiers – who abandoned their posts with their weapons and created what later became known as ISIS or ISIL – the same story resonates today. Assad could have remained in power until he was old if he had paid his soldiers better and allowed Russia to train them.
For a few dollars more.
Syrian regime soldiers and British politicians all have their price. Don’t think that in the nineties with Jessie J.’s pop hit called “Price Tag” emerged in the same year when the war in Syria began.

In Czechia they wiped out a village of 5,000 as reprisals for Heydrich assassination.
A tokamak is a device that uses magnetic fields to confine plasma in a donut-shaped container called a torus:
Tokamaks are used to produce controlled thermonuclear fusion power. They work by:
Confining plasma: Using magnetic field coils to create a twisted magnetic field that traps plasma particles
Heating plasma: Reaching the high temperatures needed for nuclear fusion reactions
Maintaining conditions: Keeping the plasma at a low pressure and high temperature for long periods of time
Tokamaks are the most researched approach to magnetic fusion energy (MFE). They have several advantages over other magnetic confinement devices, including:
Better at keeping plasmas hot: Compared to stellarators, which are better at keeping plasmas stable
More widely used: Most fusion experiments today are tokamaks because stellarator configurations are more difficult to build
Some notable tokamaks include:
T-1: The first tokamak, which began operating in Russia in 1958
“Gas station with nukes” said that great genius and intellectual powerhouse, John McCain, who graduated last in his Air Force Academy class.
Paradoxically and ironically, Russia’s rejection of Materialistic Reductionism and the worship of everything of the West – as being enlightened, to be adopted, even worshiped or thought of uncritically – is their salvation through the rediscovery of their native culture and milieu; which now has been the medicine and disinfectant to rid the country of its malignant intelligentsia that through conceit with their “Universal Values” killed the West. This is set of constructs and ideas that is leading the dead head JUSA to its demolition. You have seen it in action in the last 70 years in particular.

Members of this group quickly emigrated when VVP invaded a client state of the Holy Western Europe. These traitors and intellectual poseurs and parasites just could not bear the embarrassment among the Western and World intelligentsia at their inferior nation making move to counter a dagger aimed at the heart of Mother Russia.
This was and is a very positive development for Russia and its revival of a unique and essential culture. Secure and superior. And on the ascent, not descent. The SMO saw a lot of Western Europe groupees, worshipers, admirers, and those viewing the West as that which is to be copied and emulated. These weasels were ensconced in the Russian State Bureaucracy…these Western worshipers with their NGO inspired ideologies. Putin himself said that the SCO side benefits were that these Russian non-Russian worms left the country, which was like an automatic purge of apparatchiks and shithead nomenklatura.
Those who are interested and are capable, can take it from here………….
Everything is about eternity. God gives us freedom to choose between serving Him or Satan in this brief life, and our choice determines how we spend eternity. All of us will be evaluated by a righteous judge. Romans 2:28-29 and Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 are applicable: defining real Jews and false Jews.

I’m not sure that materialist reductionism has been totally vanquished in Russia,
but it is certainly alive and flourishing in the West.
We must concede that Assad was possibly as bad as his enemies said,
but probably no worse than they are. Wait and see.
During the war I meant.
Agree. It’s like minerals in a fish tank. All of them are always there, but have to be in right percentage and range. IOW, balanced. The Russian State is certainly doing a great job at promoting healthy attitudes, values, and general health and well-being.
The toilet-paper panic was especially funny, I had just enough tissues to last until supply was restored. It all started with a viral vid. of two fat cows fighting over toilet paper in Australia, then went world-wide.
Saw a great cartoon at the time, sorry I don’t have a link, of a family in a basement, surrounded by mountains of toilet paper, the father asks ‘By the way, did anyone bring some food?’.
Two other panics I recall.
I don’t recall if it was before or after the 2011 earthquake, but there was a butter panic around that time. Weird. I have no idea why.
After the earthquake, and I have good photos of it, supermarkets and convenience shops had completely empty shelves, partly from the government buying supplies for the worst-hit areas, but mainly from panic-buying. Scary.
Panic buying of toilet paper was crazy.
At least Muslims and SE Asians don’t need toilet paper, and they save money and trees.
Most SE Asians prefer to use toilet paper if possible and a water-spray toilet (the great Japanese invention, the ‘Washlet’) isn’t available. You are thinking of South Asians.
A different thing altogether and disgusting.
Don’t really want to know about defecatory practices of non-south Asian and non-south-east Asian Mohameddans, I suppose it’s generally the same as south Asians.
Have you seen the original toilet paper fight among three fat cows?

It’s hard to tell, at least two are darkies. They are all fat.
This video, disemminated through the magic of social media on the WWW, set off the World-Wide WC paper panic of 2020.
My prev. post is in the same line, meant to be addressed to you.
True, but it was not a general rule that the panzers here consider as some completely normal law. So some panzers here believe that it was perfectly legal to shoot 100 civilians for one panzer because it was announced in advance.
How limited dumbasses the panzers are, we can see from the fact that some Wehrmacht officer might even be tried for one or two murders if he shot 101 or 102 civilians instead of the ‘legal’ 100.
And maybe the panzers were angry and shot so many Czechs in their revenge because Heydrich was – a Jew.
Yes, I’ve seen such videos.
I know it’s not a polite subject but I have been in South East Asian toilets where there was no toilet paper (always carry own tissue paper) and the toilet floor covered with water so you get your trousers wet when you pull them down to sit or often to squat. Also in South East Asia they often provide a trash been to dispose of the used toilet paper as it tends to block the plumbing. Of course not in Singapore where you lived but in the province’s of neighbouring countries. Some Southeast Asians are so used to squatting that they even squat on the toilet bowl, balancing on the edges, rather than sit on it.
The Syrian National Army – the foreign arm of the Turkish army – was the main force in overthrowing Assad. The training and supply of the SNA was directed by Turkish military intelligence and the private military company Sadat.
Its units captured the military airport in the largest Syrian city of Aleppo, took control of the ancient city of Palmyra.
The SNA’s “Sultan Murad” division, which consists of Syrian Turkmen, expelled Kurdish forces from the city of Manbij on December 8, 2024. The recruitment of new fighters was led by the commander of that division, Fahim Issa, who also led the first detachment of “Syrian” fighters in Africa.
The recruits signed contracts for a period of up to a year and a half and were then sent to concentration camps. And the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs admits that the Syrian National Army fought with the support of the Turkish Armed Forces.
During the recent fighting, the SNA has acted in full coordination with the terrorist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which has now de facto taken power in Damascus. And HTS is the former Jabhat al-Nusra. Thousands of foreign jihadists, from Uyghurs to Albanians, are fighting in the ranks of HTS and its closest allies.
