Russia and Iran have rushed to the aid of an embattled ally as the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad announced a counteroffensive against rebel groups that have scored stunning advances in the past 48 hours.
Russian warplanes hit rebel-held targets in the northwest region of Idlib on Sunday as Iran’s foreign minister made an emergency trip to Damascus to demonstrate support for the Assad regime. Syrian jets also hit rebel-held areas of the cities of Aleppo and Idlib which have fallen to the insurgents’ lightning advance.
The moves were a sign of the deep shock delivered to Mr. Assad, whose forces had largely kept rebel forces bottled up in regions along Syria’s northern border for the past several years. In a surprise offensive, insurgents led by the rebel force Hayat Tahrir al-Sham captured the strategic city of Aleppo on Saturday and there were unconfirmed reports that they had also seized the city of Khansir, cutting off the government’s access to Aleppo.
Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, an Islamist militant group, has pledged allegiance in the past to al Qaeda.
One of its top commanders said Sunday that the group had reestablished control over the entire Idlib province since the fighting began, a claim that could not be independently verified.
The Syrian clashes also threatened to inflame a region already dealing with multiple hot conflicts in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen and elsewhere.
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union,” said American officials are watching the situation closely, and expressed concerns over the “designs and objectives” of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which the U.S. has previously designated a terrorist group.

Looks like the Neocons are giving Syria one last shot...before being sent to jail.
“Neocons are so infuriated with Russia right now, they’re willing to replace Assad with a neo-ISIS terrorist organization.”
Neocons have ALWAYS been infuriated with Russia, probably due to their stance on Globohomo, and they have been working with ISIS since 2011 to overthrow Assad, as shown in pictures of McCain and Graham with ISIS leaders.
Like I say, jail time!
Ezekiel 38 is coming
Some keep pointing to Isaiah 17
I guess time will tell
Sunni Jihadist: Those Alawite Pig Jihadists are not honoring Allah enough! They must die!
Alawite Jihadist: Those Sunni and Shiite Jihadists are threatening our regime, they do not honor Allah enough nor do they respect Assad, they must die!
Shiite Jihadist: Those Alawite Pig Jihadists are in cahoots with those Sunni Pig Jihadists who are not honoring Allah enough! They must die!
ISIS Jihadists: Those Alawite, Sunni, Shiite Pig Jihadists are all in cahoots with those Russian Infidels, they do not honor Allah at all, they must all die!
Turkish Jihadists: Those Alawite, Sunni, Shiite Pig Jihadists are all in cahoots with those Russian Infidels, they do not honor Allah or our great leader Erdoğan at all, they must all die!
There you have it folks, the entire Middle Eastern and global problem where Israel is not involved, one iota. The instability and violence on the planet is this Islamic Plague and Europe had better purge them before they will be part of this list!
Assad is an Alawite, he knows that if he fails to protect his sect in Syria, they'll be wiped out.

Indeed, as explained by Leon Uris in his book The Haj:
So before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world. And all of us against the infidel.
Remember what T.E. Lawrence (of Arabia) said About the Arabs in reality (1917) or in the 1962 film:
So long as the Arabs fight tribe against tribe, so long will they be a little people, a silly people - greedy, barbarous, and cruel, as you are.
I know the Alawites are secular but as a clan and part of Islam, they ALL believe that you should convert or die...as an Infidel of course.
Are the secular Alawites any less cruel than there religious brothers?
Ask Haffez Al-Assad and his son Bashar.
“Neocons are so infuriated with Russia right now, they’re willing to replace Assad with a neo-ISIS terrorist organization.”
They are not infuriated. They all got their money from Ukraine funding and are now baling before the SHTF.
(So long as the Arabs fight tribe against tribe, so long will they be a little people, a silly people - greedy, barbarous, and cruel, as you are.)
The Word of the Lord through His Angel:
Genesis 16:11-12
New King James Version
11 And the Angel of the Lord said to her:
“Behold, you are with child,
And you shall bear a son.
You shall call his name Ishmael,
Because the Lord has heard your affliction.
12 He shall be a wild man;
His hand shall be against every man,
And every man’s hand against him.
And he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.”

Nothing like starting off on the wrong foot, eh?
The Word of the Lord coming true for thousands and thousands of years
It was Sarah’s idea for Abraham to get Hagar pregnant and then Sarah’s idea to drive Hagar and Ishmael (eventually) out into the desert 🏜️.
Just wow
Abraham, of course, went along with it
Sunni or later Shiite happens.
Christians in Syria will again be slaughtered as a result.
