Despite the Western press reporting the new “freedom” in Syria that miraculously came about with the fall of the Assad government, the reality on the ground is anything but. Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) terrorist leader Jolani is now the de facto head of the broken state of Syria and, regardless of his statements to Western governments and their media mouthpieces, he is not ushering in an “inclusive” Syria. Instead, the Jolani government is overseeing a religious genocide of Alawites and Christians that previously existed only in the wet dreams of Western-backed terrorists.

While figures are hard to corroborate, estimates range from somewhere between 7,000 to 17,000 Alawites and Christians have been slaughtered in the coastal regions of Syria by terrorist forces in the last several weeks. 15,000 are also reported missing.Other sources put the figures much higher. 

Indeed, the killing of Alawites and Christians by terrorist forces never stopped, even after the fall of Assad. Yet, in recent weeks, the killings have intensified to unprecedented levels.

In the days following the fall of the Assad government some former members of the Syrian Arab Army and others formed resistance and protection militias focused in areas that are predominately Alawite, located on the Syrian coast for the purposes of self defense. In the last two weeks, HTS forces began committing numerous atrocities against Alawites in the coastal region, prompting a response from the protection militias who struck back at HTS.

The Case For Tariffs - How Tariffs Can Help Bring Back The Golden Age Of American Economy

About once a decade, the question of Protective Tariffs finds its way into the national debate. Whether a political candidate dares to raise the issue or a clever collection of activists and analysts work together to inject it into the national discussion, the reaction is always the same from the halls of entrenched power - hysteria and panic over the mere discussion of tariffs. 

Both the establishment Right and the establishment Left in the United States argue that tariffs represent an end to industry and trade, that they deny opportunity to the third world, will only raise prices for American consumers, and that they are the first shot in a tragic trade war. In the halls of corporations and academia, everyone seems to agree – tariffs are bad for the economy and the country as a whole. Predictably, corporate property in Congress parrot the same line and it appears that opposing tariffs is one of the few areas where Democrats and Republicans can agree.

Thus, when anti-tariff politicians, CEOs, and academics speak, their warnings that tariffs represent an end to their globalist vision where international corporations continue to abandon Western workers with their pesky wages, rights, and protections while exploiting third world workers for lower wages, easy replacement, and lack of concern for basic human needs are thinly veiled. This latter, more honest, concern is, in fact, correct. tariffs do threaten globalism and corporate exploitation of workers and societies.

Here's A Rundown Of Events In Syria As Of January 14, 2025

Since the fall of Assad, Western governments and their media outlets have celebrated right alongside the terrorists they supported since 2011. Among the things to cheer, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham has now established control over almost all major cities in Syria and much of the countryside, making Syria essentially a terrorist controlled state. In that capacity, HTS is now imposing various forms of Sharia Law onto a population whose majority prefer a secular state. They must keep those preferences to themselves now, however, as HTS representatives have already told Alawite schoolchildren that any utterance about secular states would result in their deaths.

So, while western governments and corporate media outlets groan on wringing their hands about Sednaya (some real horrors and some imagined), the ongoing killings, bordering on “cleansing” of ethnic and religious minorities is indeed very real. On this issue, there is no handwringing  and there are no calls to intervene. On this issue, one can only hear the sound of crickets amongst the screams of Alawites and Christians.

According to sources within Syria, Christians are facing heavy persecution in Salamieh, Hama Province. Alawites are facing more than persecution, with outright torture and killings now the order of the day. The attacks gained steam first in Homs, then Tartous and Lattakia.

All over Syria,  women are being told they must wear the hijab, a stark contrast to what Jolani has been saying publicly. Zenobia has been struck from the school textbooks in order to cleanse Syrian history and remove references to powerful infidels.

Leaving Landmines For Trump In Syria

Now that the Assad government has fallen, the giant landmine left to the incoming Trump administration is now glaringly obvious to anyone with open eyes – the fact that Syria is now controlled by al-Qaeda and ISIS.

With the questionable doubling of US troops in Syria shortly before the Assad departure, almost certainly a part of a back door international deal, the new President will be left with a much more volatile Syrian question – Does Trump remove US forces from Syria and risk what neocons and liberals will inevitably  claim is “emboldening” ISIS or does he stay in and risk another Iraq with mercurial objectives of “defeating ISIS?”

As Antonio Graceffo wrote in his article, “Countering ISIS: America’s Intensified Mission In Syria,” for The Gateway Pundit,

The Pentagon recently disclosed that the doubling of U.S. troop levels in Syria predates the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime, highlighting a sustained commitment to countering ISIS and preventing its resurgence in the region.

While most of the deployed troops are Army personnel focused on disrupting ISIS operations, details regarding the timeline and specifics of their mission remain unclear.

Reports indicate that the troop increase has been in place for months, raising questions about the transparency of U.S. involvement in Syria.

Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder emphasized that the additional forces are not related to recent events, such as the search for missing journalist Austin Tice, but instead reflect long-term counterterrorism objectives.

On December 8, 2024, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) conducted precision airstrikes targeting over 75 known ISIS camps and operatives in central Syria.

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.

US Doubles Number Of Troops In Syria After Fall Of Assad Government

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]
