You see this shit? It's been about a year and a half since the world collectively decided to pretend that a fucking Al-Qaeda offshoot rebranding itself means democracy. The guy is Ahmad al-Sharaa, formerly known as al-Julani, international terrorist with a $10 million bounty from the US State Department. He studied jihad instead of exams, went to Iraq after 9/11 because he saw planes hitting towers and thought "yes, that's my career path." Did time in ZOG prisons, founded Jabhat al-Nusra, fell out with Baghdadi, rebranded like five times just to dodge sanctions. Now he's the leader of Syria. CNN gives him airtime. He talks about inclusivity. Women, he says, don't have to wear hijab – but later. For now, cover up or I'll cut you.
The guy literally has a video where he promises to build an Islamic state. Then he puts on a suit and tells Western journalists he wants a civil administration. And the West eats it up. The same West that spent years bombing ISIS now shakes hands with a guy whose group was torturing people in Idlib for years. They removed his terrorist designation. They unironically call him "diversity-friendly jihadist" or "jihadism with a human face." I am not making this up. You can look it up. Human face. What the fuck does that even mean? Most humans don't have human faces according to these people? The victims had faces too. Very similar faces. Maybe twins.
Then March 2025 happened. Remember that? Probably not because the mainstream media spent maybe three days on it. Al-Sharaa's boys went into Alawite villages – al-Mukhtariya, Arza, Baniyas. They killed over a thousand people. Women, children, didn't matter. They filmed it. They posted it. They were proud of it. Official reason? "Legitimate act of revenge against regime loyalists." Unofficial reason? They're fucking savages. The UN special envoy Geir Pedersen said earlier that Islamists should be removed from terrorist lists if they prove inclusivity. Well, they proved it. Very inclusive genocide. Sunnis and Christians got caught in the crossfire too. So much for uniting Syria.
The new "president" ordered an investigation into the massacre. Appointed a judge named al-Anzi. What did al-Anzi write before? "Shias are our enemies, pity they were left safe, the Iraqi Rafidis will go to hell." Also: "Sunnis should kill Shias, not each other." Perfect guy for an independent national committee. The White Helmets, who spent years making fake chemical attack videos for CNN and the BBC, are now part of the new government. No one investigates anything anymore. No Assad means no crimes, right? That's literally the logic.
Speaking of chemical weapons – remember Khan Shaykhun 2017? US didn't wait for any investigation. Just bombed Shayrat airbase based on White Helmet footage. Later the OPCW fact-finding mission did a "remote investigation." Didn't even visit the site. Used samples provided by the opposition. The opposition controlled the area. They poured concrete over the impact crater. Concrete absorbs sarin, by the way – very convenient. The mission admitted no forensic analysis of electronic records, no chain of custody. But the conclusion was already written: Assad did it. France released a report that literally cited "insiders" and linked to a casino website as proof. On Wikipedia, the English page just says Assad is guilty because "he must have known." Presidential poom-poom-poom logic.
Assad cooperated with the OPCW, gave up his chemical stockpile, let inspectors in anywhere. The opposition did nothing but kidnap UN peacekeepers – twice. Also kidnapped a Ukrainian journalist, Anhar Kochneva, who spoke Russian, so they threatened to attack the Russian embassy if not paid. Peak geopolitics. Meanwhile al-Sharaa's guys were caught with sarin canisters by Turkey. No one cared. The US kept backing the "moderate opposition" that happened to include the same people. And now those people run Damascus.
