That is a strategic location.

Looks like chickens are coming home to roost. 

All that Russian interference just to lose everything again 😭

And they are getting drained in Ukriane too. I suspect Russian economic collapse next year or the year after.

The next target: Homs. Capturing is one thing, and not a minor one, but maintaining it is another, which is tougher. I think things will get messy, with many foreign actors.

This is more than a civil war, indeed, which partly it is, but it's also part of a more global clash we are living in, most unfortunately for the ones suffering it firsthand. Combined with other currently ongoing conflicts in the region. Syria is in the way between Iran and Lebanon, so Israel is very interested in cutting this and changing the regime that permits it. Turkey has its feuds, claims, and interests on its border and beyond, has unequivocally shown where it stands and with whom. These gains couldn't have happened without Turkey's push. Russia is minding its own problems in Ukraine, successfully, but has quite on its plate yet. But I don't see them staying totally in the margins. Iran is probably going to aid Assad's regime too, as an ally, and for its own interest. The USA is behind too, couldn't be other way, as a support for Israel, and opposition to Iran and Russia, and the smell of oil, of course. All big players, a fucking mess.

Homs getting taken and held means it’s almost over for Damascus. If Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires, Syria is the imperial dance floor. So many interests in one place colliding. Erdogan just came out saying he hopes for the advance of the rebels all the way to Damascus.

What’s revealing is how Hamas was portrayed as the ultimate villain, while HTS - a group with Al-Qaeda roots is being given a PR makeover. Suddenly, they’re “rebels”.  So it’s worthy to rise up against an oppressive dictator but not to rise up against an oppressive occupation?

The Telegraph even dare to weave in buzzwords like “inclusivity” and “diversity” to sanitize their image. Rebels with jihadi DNA wrapped in DEI-approved packaging to make the Western backed group palatable for domestic Western audiences - bear in mind this same group is on the terrorist watch list. But we all know how that label is weaponised - the Houthi rebels were also on and off the list when it suited interests - them blockading sea routes to protest a Western backed genocide apparently made them real terrorists worthy of vilifying .

This doesn’t invalidate the Syrian cause and the potential that these groups are now moderate and possibly worthy of leadership. It’s just to show the game board of imperial interests playing out with Syrian people having to suffer for it.

The Western establishment doesn’t care about democracy or principles, but for interests. That’s why one dictator is bad whilst another across the ocean in Saudi Arabia and the gulf more broadly are buddies.

The He/Him pic is obviously fake.

I think they overdid it a bit by writing the pronouns. xD

Anyway, all this is not really a joke. The NATO alliance is scoring a goal, they found a weak spot, and they took it. I'm not gonna blame the Syrians who oppose a dictator, but I'll say that these Jihadists look even worse. It reminds a bit of Afghanistan, with many differences, but didn't go well in the long run. Not all Syrians are happy about these events, but they don't have much choice. Whoever wins, you gotta abide, because they point guns at you. If you are lucky, the side you prefer wins. I link a Syrian journalist.

Edit: Okay, I see the pronouns were fake... Good one! xDxD
