But this is the Middle East. It will have a bad ending.
After years of disappointment (and tons of bloodshed) from Islamicists how and why would a Western journalist think the following:
If Abu Mohammed Al-Jawlani, the leader of HTS, the main victorious rebel group, is true to his word, then there is a chance for this country to transition to a more PLURALISTIC, DEOMOCRATIC future, supported by the UN and others.
Did anybody see their flag? Is anybody paying attention to who these scum are? The flag is the same radical Islamic one used during the civil war in Libya.
Why do Westerners even use the words “Pluralistic and Democratic”. These people are savages - wake up!
