is this a good thing or a bad thing? Russia backed Assad, Pelosi visited Assad, so at first glace is it good?

This is what I’m afraid of. Once power is consolidated the Islamists will start genociding Christians.

Trump needs to track-down who instigated and finaced this — all of them. Anything in which the Turks are involved is not going to advancing freedom and democracy. Wouldn’t be surprised to discover substantial involvement of the Biden regime and EU globalists.

The immediate losers are Russia and Iran. Russia has lost their ally (Assad) and a key naval base in Syria. Iran has also lost Assad as an ally and much of their land route to supply Hezbollah. In addition, the example of a nearby dictator and his regime being overthrown is ominous for the Iranian mullahs.

The immediate winners are Israel and Turkey. Israel's security is improved, while Turkey has succeeded in projecting power in the Levant. This advances Erdogan's goal of creating a neo-Ottoman empire.

My guess is that it will take years for a stable new regime to emerge in Syria. With the country exhausted, a relatively peaceful era may be in the offing to the degree that the Syrian people have anything to say about it.

Assad was a moderate, who wanted a future for his kids. The new management are Islamists who want to die in Jihad to get their 72 virgins
