“That’s what they wanted. Or at least 75% of them.
Realistically, there will be some fighting between rebel groups. Turkey is likely going to send some military units to battle the Kurds. Trump will pull out American troops. It’s not our problem. They need to sort it out themselves.”

Incorrect on all. Assad stood for elections and easily won. They were good elections and the opposition was never elected.
Turkey will go after the Kurds. And we will not pull out. We grabbed the oil rich NE corner for the Kurd separatists. There will be a lot of new fighting, massive Sunni Wahabbist repression, the eradication of the remaining Christians and Jews in Syria, and a whole new wave of Syrian refugees into the EU and America.

This is a very bad thing to any sane person. Only the CIA/Israelis and DC are happy.

That can't be a serious statement.

Trump wanted to pull out the last time.

There will be a lot of new fighting, massive Sunni Wahabbist repression, the eradication of the remaining Christians and Jews in Syria, and a whole new wave of Syrian refugees into the EU and America.

The Jews got out a long time ago. The Christians are not organizing themselves into militas so hopefully they'll find a way to get out soon.

You can add China to the happy list. China owns most of the Syrian National oil company going back to 2003 when they first signed an oil deal. Starting around 2011 China had majority stake and that is a big problem for the EU as they get a lot of oil from Syria.
