I am sure there are champagne corks a popping at CIA Headquarters in McLean, Virginia and at MI-6 Headquarters in London. I think this operation surpassed even their expectations. But, if the subsequent events that unfolded in Iraq in 2003 and Libya in 2011 are any guide, the celebrations should be tempered with trepidation. Why? Because Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham is now in charge. Instead of bringing peace and reconciliation, HTS will imposed strict Shari’a law and will punish those guilty of heresy — which means large segments of Syrian society are likely to be purged. HTS itself will become a target of terrorism. The most likely fate for Syria — at least for the next decade — is chaos and mayhem.

It's one thing to conquer a nation, but another to govern it long term.

The US was unable to do so in Iraq after they overthrew Saddam.

I think they derive greater $$$ benefit from allowing chaos to reign.

They've probably got shares in Libya's slave markets, and are waiting on the incoming equivalent in Syria.

While Israel, in typical cowardly Zionist fashion, will pretend to be the strongest most unstoppable army ever, because when they're not bombing women, children, schools and hospitals from afar, they're paying for terrorists to do the fighting then roll in with tanks and steal more land once there's nobody to fight back.

Israel being Israel, and the West being complicit, again.

Sums it up nicely.

The issue is that the US and Israel wants the oil. For oil to come out, there has to be stability.

The same with the gas pipeline they want from Qatar.
