Trump knew in 2013. Does he still know in 2024?
It’s a familiar playbook from the Deep State/CIA that we saw it in Iraq, in Libya and now it has been fully executed in Syria with the fall of the Assad regime. They previously tried this between 2011-2015 but thanks to Russia help, Assad prevailed in most of the country.
This time, that help was not forthcoming and change has come. Bizarrely, the US, UK and EU have all rushed to welcome the rise of a dangerous militant Islamic regime.
Let’s meet Muhammad Al Jawlani, the leader of the new regime. Here was how he WAS once portrayed by the media.
Now, this is how he is portrayed.
He’s like a Zelensky 2.0 with the green combat attire and the entire western deep state advancing the Al Qaeda adjacent Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) that he fronts. Who are they?
Well….
Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham means “Assembly for the Liberation of the Levant”. HTS has its origins in Al Qaeda and Islamic State. The group's cadre is predominately composed of Syrian nationals many of whom are veterans of previous conflicts, including the Iraq war.
Thousands of fighters from around the world have traveled to Syria since early 2012 to support oppositionist groups, and some fighters aspire to connect with al- Nusrah Front and other extremist groups. Several Westerners have joined al-Nusrah Front, including a few who have died in suicide operations. Western government officials have raised concerns that capable individuals with extremist contacts and battlefield experience could return to their home countries to commit violent acts.
An al-Nusrah Front attack in May 2014-the first known suicide bombing by an American in Syria-targeted regime. In 2016, Jabhat al-Nusra rebranded itself as Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, claiming to distance itself from al-Qaeda. The following year, it merged with other groups to form Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham.
Mohammed A-Sharaa, who took the name Al-G'ulani (from the Golan) was NOT born in the Golan, but in... Saudi Arabia, to a Syrian father (NOT from the Golan either), an atheist pan-Arabist who co-operated with the terrorist Fedayeen of the Palestine Liberation Organization and wrote how Pan-Arabia could use oil to dominate the world. The son took it a step further, turned to religion, and adopted the name to symbolize the war he wants to wage on Israel, as a beginning to the whole Middle East, and from there Europe.
This is who is now being feted in Washington, London and Brussels.
It has happened before.
I doubt that Syria’s Christians will be happy about this. They were about 10 percent of Syria's population of 21 million before the war began in 2011. Now, they account for about 5 percent, with fewer than 700,000 left, according to groups that track the persecution of Christians around the world. Who many of that 700,000 will be able to survive under the incoming Jihadi regime? Does the West care what happens this dwindling number of Christians? What if they flee to Europe? Is that part of the plan, to further destabilise it? More mass Syrian migration?
The most important reaction to all of this is that from President Elect Trump and he seems to have decided to stay the hell out it.
I wonder how many Christian refugees Labour will be welcoming into Britain?
