That’s easy. Our government is captured by people who hate Christians and Christianity.

Why are Christians trying to live in a Muslim hell hole

They are the converted and they are trapped by their circumstances: Christianity is actively persecuted across more than half the world.

The US is not supporting HTS. From https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/02/politics/us-syria-diplomatic-situation/index.html

Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, the Pentagon press secretary, on Monday distanced the US from the offensive last week, in which rebel groups quickly advanced on and took Aleppo, Syria’s second-largest city, for the first time in years.

“Let me be clear that the US is in no way involved in the operations you see playing out in and around Aleppo in northwestern Syria, which as you know are being led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, a designated terrorist organization,” he said in reference to a group known as HTS, adding that the US “is urging de-escalation.”

The dilemma for the US was further put into focus by national security adviser Jake Sullivan, who told CNN on Sunday that HTS is a “a terrorist organization designated by the United States. So, we have real concerns about the designs and objectives of that organization.”
