Assad has himself too blame primarily for his defeat, because he relied too much on Iran, Hezbollah adn Russia, and failed to clean up his corrupt officers and modernize his army. He did nothing of the sort and now he has lost. It is mainly his weakness and the dilettantism of his regime that are responsible for Syria falling so quickly. Much the same happened as in Afghanistan in 2021. His army commanders seem to have simply betrayed him and have apparently been negotiating with the jihadists and the Turks for months in the hope of saving their skins. It won’t be long before they realize how big of a blunder they’ve made. Once the jihadists are firmly established, they will gradually liquidate all those who do not join the VII. to the program of returning to the 20th century, that is, all religious and ethnic minorities.
Syria was sold, that’s the explanation. the Americans lavishly paid off the chief officers and officers to let the country pass without substantial resistance. The whole “peaceful transition” had already been agreed upon. The ceasefire in Lebanon was probably also related to this. This was CIA business. The declining military fortunes of the American empire have not yet eroded its only remaining asset: money. Whatever it cost Syria, the empire was now willing to pay, and still could. Hochstein’s and Blinken’s tours of the Middle East masked the real backroom deals to carve up the one asset the empire still has a chance of buying big.
For Iran,this is a strategic disaster,but it was predictable. A powerful faction of traitors has been operating within the Iranian state for years, led by Mohammad Zarif, who secretly bargains with the Zionists in Washington, with the aim of bringing Iran into the Western camp by destroying the Revolutionary Guard. Having sold Nasrallah and the entire hezbollah leadership, he has no intention of stopping.The Iranian secret services learned about the current offensive prepared by the Turks in time, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in the hands of Zarif, blocked the goverment’s response. The elderly Ayatollah Khamenei is apparently no longer the master of himself and his country’s destiny.
The fall of Assad is very good for Israel and very bad for Iran. This broke the anti-Zionist ”axis of resistance” and wedged in a pro-zionist Takfirist regime, cutting off Hezbollah from all Shia support, so Israel will inevitably increase pressure on it with the help of the jihadists. All in all, this is quiet a blow to the opponents of the US plan for world domination.
What happened in Syria now happened for obvious reasons. Hezbollah, which previously armed support for Assad, has been significantly weakened by Iran’s treachery and
The fall of Assad is a serious defeat for Russia. Now only Iran remains among the original targets of the US-Israel bloc, as Wesley Clark outlined: “in five years, we will eliminate seven countries: iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, sudan, and finally we will finish with Iran.” The biblical Greater Israel is now on the horizon,as is the collapse of the Pax Americana and its replacement by the Pax Judaica. At the same time, to see Muslims cheering Assad’s defeat is downright obscene.If there are sectarian disputes among them, and there are plenty of them, infighting should wait until the external enemy is defeated.What is going on in the minds of jihadists? Muslim children are being torn apart by Israeli bombs, but they are scorning Assad because his family is a member of some small sect. They don’t think like Sun-tse, that’s without a doubt, if they think at all. As for the Syrians on the left, who are now bursting with joy at the sight of the Islamist “liberators”, their euphoria will last for about a week before they are brutally brought down to earth by medieval terror.
Soon the Russians will also find out what the “weak hand” policy is costing them.Syria is now the center of global jihadism, much to the delight of Western democracies. There, NATO will train the religious fanatics pouring in from all over the world with the task of setting the Caucasus and Central Asia on fire all the way to Xinjiang, and Europe will not escape either.Moscow and Tehran seem to have no idea what they have allowed to happen right under their noses. What they wanted to save by not taking decisive steps to rebuild the Syrian state and army, they will have to pay tenfold in the future for their own security.
When Putin declared victory in Syria in 2017, he said the Russian military would remain there permanently and “if the terrorists raise their heads again, we will strike them in a way they have never seen before.” Just seven years later, the Russians surrendered without a fight. Israel is now reaping the rewards of its air support for the jihadist offensive and is likely to extend its occupied “buffer zone” all the way to Damascus with the blessing of the country’s new master, none other than Abu Mohamed al-Jolani, the founder of al-Qaeda’s Syrian branch, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s former ally, with a ten million dollar american blood bounty on his head.
NATO will assign these same jihadists to drive the Russians out of the port of Tartus, but they may also voluntarily give up their bases in Syria, and then the disaster will be complete, because NATO will conclude that russia is weak and indecisive. , and that aggression pays off if it goes a long way. This could also effect the war situation in Ukraine and even Putin’s position – even in a fatal way.

What impact has the U.S. financial strategy had on military leadership dynamics in Syria?
Interview Between Time.news Editor and Middle East Expert Dr. Ahmet Kadir
Time.news Editor (TNE): Welcome, dr. Kadir! It’s a pleasure to have you wiht us to discuss the current state of Syria and the broader implications in the region. The recent developments have sparked meaningful interest. To start, what do you beleive is the primary reason for the rapid decline of Assad’s regime?
Dr. ahmet Kadir (DAK): Thank you for having me! The situation in Syria is indeed complex, but one of the main reasons for Assad’s falling grip on power is his over-reliance on external powers like Iran, Hezbollah, and Russia. He failed to address corruption within his military and did not modernize his forces,which left them vulnerable.
TNE: it sounds like a combination of internal weakness and external dependency led to his downfall. You mentioned parallels to Afghanistan in 2021. Can you elaborate on that?
DAK: Certainly. In both cases, we witnessed a break in loyalty among military leaders. Just as Afghan commanders negotiated their survival with the Taliban, some of Assad’s commanders appear to be aligning themselves with jihadist factions and even Turkey. This kind of betrayal in the ranks indicates a lack of cohesion and loyalty, which is a recipe for disaster.
TNE: You mentioned that certain military leaders were reportedly bribed to ensure minimal resistance against the advancing forces. how do you assess the role of the united States in this?
DAK: The U.S. seems to have leveraged it’s financial resources strategically.The idea that American operatives facilitated the transition of power by paying key military figures reflects a calculated approach to ensure a smooth takeover. This maneuvering, often masked as diplomacy, suggests that Washington remains potent in employing its remaining assets—primarily its financial leverage—in the region.
TNE: That’s a compelling perspective.How does this situation impact Iran,especially considering its strategic interests in Syria and beyond?
DAK: For Iran,the loss of influence in Syria is indeed a strategic disaster.There have been internal factions, particularly led by Mohammad Zarif, that aim to shift Iran’s alignment towards the West by compromising its key allies, including Hezbollah. This internal divide, and the apparent paralysis of Ayatollah Khamenei, suggest a significant power struggle within Iran that could complicate its future regional engagements.
TNE: Given these dynamics, what do you foresee for the future of syria and its neighboring countries?
DAK: If the current trajectory continues, we could see a resurgence of extremist elements gaining power in Syria, which would threaten both local minority groups and regional stability. Additionally, Turkey might exploit this moment to solidify its influence, complicating relationships between regional powers and possibly drawing in external ones as well.
TNE: In closing, what do you think is the most critical takeaway from this situation for international observers?
DAK: The critical takeaway is that internal political dynamics frequently enough interact with external pressures in unforeseen ways. The lessons from Syria highlight the importance of understanding local allegiances, the impact of economic incentives, and how quickly the calculus can change in international relations. The region remains fragile, and those who overlook these nuances do so at their own peril.
TNE: Thank you, Dr. Kadir, for your insights. It’s clear that the situation in Syria remains fluid and complex, requiring close observation and an understanding of both local and international factors. We appreciate your time and expertise!
DAK: Thank you for having me! It’s been a pleasure to discuss these pressing issues.
