What’s going on in Syria
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
Can someone pease explain to me what’s going on in Syria. Not sure if Assad is good or bad. Is this another color revolution from the good old USA?
Syria was an ally of Iran and a bridge between Iran/Iraq and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Syria also prevented direct oil & gas pipelines from Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Qatar and Kuwait from delivering oil & gas through Greece to Italy and Western Europe. Those pipelines would replace Russian oil & gas.
Israel already moved into Syrian Golan Heights and they will claim much more SE Syrian territory as a "buffer zone". Israel may even clear out Gaza, relocating the Palestinians to new Syrian "camps". Watch for Israel to take over Lebanon in all but name. Israel will control Lebanon's government and everything in it. Lebanon will have "free elections"... so of course rigged.
Sunni Muslims, friendly to Saudi Arabia, will control Syria. Turkey will control the Northern areas of Syria.
Next to happen will be civil war in Iraq. Sunni forces will sweep in from Syria to take over Iraq. Kurds will control Northern Iraq. Watch for Yemen to fall next to Sunni forces. Iran will be isolated and friendless. Final nail will be wiping out the Iranian mullahs.
Also, Russia severely weakened, having lost oil & gas sales to # 1 customer Western Europe, and to #3 customer Turkey.
There is speculation that Joe Biden used Ukraine to send weapons to the rebels in Syria.
At this point, I'd believe those weapons ended up literally anywhere and everywhere. There's a reason Congress refused to include provisions requiring tracking and audits.
I wonder if the Russian Military is going to slaughter Congress for its role in disabling the world.
This is definitely what kicked the whole debacle off 10+ years ago from a business perspective. It was initiated by PNAC's color revolution flowchart, aimed at destabilizing the countries around Israel, to help strengthen Israel's security.
Without US aid, Israel is a basket-case. It has made no attempt to make friends and remains hostile to all surrounding countries. Trump's gambit was to change that, with his peace plan - but Nutty Yahoo had different ideas.
Ukraine has been Israel's lifeboat for some years. Shit goes down, Jews move country. Putin doesn't want Israel 2.0 on his doorstep, so shut that shit down. I think a deal has been done whereby Israel gets instability in Syria in exchange for Russia getting the Oblasts that voted to leave Ukraine. Who gets Odessa is still up for grabs.
