On the confusing Syria-rebels: Kurds, Secular or Jihadi?

Posted on 12/08/2024 11:58:33 AM PST by Words Matter

SOME ORDER

Among the many groups, there are mainly four:

A. HTS al-Jolani: Islamic Jihadists ex Nusra (supported Hamas Oct 7 attacks).

B. Other Islamists - backed by Turkiye.

C. Kurds - allies of US

C. Others, including secular.

Non jihadisrs are mainly under FSA

Luckily, new administration is coming.
Trump and Rubio will know how to choose the lesser evil.
Biden/Blinken, Kerry and Hillary were usually picking the worst of all evils!

The horde of head choppers who just descended on Damascus? It’s a conglomeration of various rent-a-jihadi mobs led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).

There are even Uyghers, yes Uyghers, among them:

Kurds? No. The Turks don’t like them, and neither do their head choppers.

It certainly seems like the Biden administration wants to leave the nation and the world in as much turmoil as possible for Trump to deal with. Dems in power are not crazy. They are evil.

Yep. They were recruiting head choppers from all over into Idlib. It’s quite the motley crew.
