The al-Nusra Front and Jabhat Fateh led by Ahmed al-Sharaa ousted Bashir al-Assad and his Ba’athists, becoming the de facto government in Syria. The successful takeover was easy; too easy. On Dec 8, 2024 Assad high tailed it to live in Russia as a guest of Vladimir Putin and his government collapsed.
Since then the new Syrian government forces and associated militias have been attacking and killing Alawites, Sunni and Christian minority groups. Al-Sharaa has denied responsibility and claimed little control over the militant groups in the war torn nation.
US President for Life hopeful Donald Trump thinks al-Sharaa is an “attractive young man.”
Al-Sharaa was an al-Queda operative. He initially traveled to Syria after being released from a US prison in Iraq to begin an al-Queda presence and ended up miraculously taking over the revolution. The original revolutionary movement led by the US backed Free Syria Army was kicked to the curb.
Under al-Shara’a’s leadership, al-Nusra Front and Jabhat Fateh al-Sham perpetrated a series of war crimes, suicide bombings, forced conversions, ethnic cleansing and sectarian massacres against Syria’s Christian, Alawite, Shia and Druze minorities. These included the January 2012 al-Midan bombing, which killed 26 people and wounded 63. In 2015, al-Nusra fighters killed Druze villagers during the Qalb Loze massacre. Wikipedia
We have seen how (and why) the giant fascist man gods don’t like Jews and why they don’t like Yazidis or Kurds. The Alawites, besides being the ethnic group of al-Assad, believe in reincarnation. They don’t like Alawites either.
