Syria Is Now In Civil War

Western governments and mainstream media may have presented the terrorist forces in Syria as pluralist victors, determined to keep the peace and protect minorities, but those of us who have been following the Syrian crisis since the beginning knew better all along.

For his part, Jolani (and HTS) is the new de facto leader of part of the country, even as four other nations launch bombing campaigns inside it, and competing terrorist armies fight with another over territory, religion, or other disputes.

Jolani publicly states that he wants good relations with all neighbors and that all Syrians will have rights and protection.

But the situation on the ground is a bit different.

For instance, 14 members of HTS were killed in Tartous in an ambush by the remnants of the Syrian Army. HTS is engaged in a mission to “pursue Assad loyalists” and “restore order,” though no one is sure just how liberally the term “Assad loyalist” is being applied. Indeed, it has been extended from a targeted search of those who tortured or executed prisoners to “loyalists” in a very short time.

Nevertheless, the clashes lasted at least two days and since spread to the mountain region of Lattakia.

Ethnic Cleansing Beginning In Syria?

It’s been weeks since the “fall” of the Assad government in Syria and semi-installation of a new terrorist run government. In fact, it seems that Syria is largely run by al-Qaeda, rebranded as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, under its leader Jolani.

While Jolani initially spoke of a Syria “for all Syrians” where minority groups would be protected and freedom of religion would be respected, where women would not be forced to where the veil, and where peace would be the ultimate goal, many onlookers predicted a different track for Syria – one of bloodshed, civil war, ethnic and religious cleansing.

It seems that the latter was indeed the more accurate prediction.

Syria has been devolving into civil war between terrorist factions and the remnants of the Syrian military and unaffiliated militias. At the same time, terrorist forces are fighting one another, fanatical Kurds are fighting terrorists and Turkey, the United States is bombing alleged ISIS targets, and Israel is launching a massive bombing campaign all across the country to destroy all equipment and military infrastructure that once belonged to the Syrian military. Israel is also occupying a “buffer zone” of illegally annexed and extended territory belonging to Syria.

The country is already breaking down into a land of warring factions, resembling the Lebanese civil war more and more each day.

The Syrian government has collapsed and now, after decades of being told they must surrender their rights in order to protect themselves from al-Qaeda, the American people are being told al-Qaeda is “saying all the right things” in Syria and they must now rejoice over the terrorist organization’s victory there.

Various terrorist factions are now fighting against one another in Syria ( a revolution after the revolution), minority groups are fighting back in areas where they are unwilling to be victims of extermination campaigns, Israel is bombing the entire country and invading from the Golan, Kurds are fighting other terrorist groups, and the United States is still occupying the east of the country, intensifying its own bombing campaigns. Syria is teetering on the border of becoming a state without a state consumed with civil war.

American troops stationed in Syria and Iraq are now sitting ducks for any real fighting to be done – for retaliation by Iran or Russia.

But the 900 troops that remained in Syria even after being ordered out of the country by President Donald Trump in his first term (as a result of his own staff lying to him about the real numbers of troops there), are being joined by 1100 more Americans, according to the Pentagon. [1]
