I hope the people of Syria get something better than Assad, but it'll be a miracle if they do. Seems like regime changes in the Middle East go from bad to worse. Maybe the Kurds will get their own country out of this. They gained some land out of this too.
It would help if the USA wasn't constantly meddling in the area, how long has it been now?
Wrong again.
You absolutely have no idea what you are talking about.
The US helps the Kurds because they are the underdogs of the area for no fault of their own. They were made scapegoats when the Jews left for Israel.
Personally I think it might be a mistake but they are such a small player in Syria it's pathetic.
A terrorist group that fights AlQuaida and ISIS and just about everyone has gained the biggest chunk of land. Their leader has a $10 million bounty on his head.
There are other groups that have seized control over their little area. All have leftover Russian munitions. They took a 2,000 year old cannon out of the museum and fired it off at Syrian troops. (What a shame destroying it this way)
There's like 40 or 50 different local groups all wanting a piece of Syria. But Turkey, Iran, Russia and Jordan all want pieces to control. (Russia has evacuated and abandoned their soldiers and a bunch of equipment)
The US has bases there to stop violence and abuse. These guys are fired upon regularly. They take pot shots at our guys who just try to help protect civilians.
There are Christians there in Allepo and elsewhere....migrated there from Lebanon when the radicals took over.
The pain of Assad's rule is going to be long lasting.
The area known as Antioch in the book of Acts is right there....
I know far more than you because I am not indoctrinated and when I provide facts about how the USA and its tentacles go in and force government changes to protect their interests (under the guise of spreading democracy) even when there was a completely legitimate election process, because you probably did not know this your only response was..... "not relevant."
Self taught people generally lack rigor in their understanding, sorry but true,
and that is the last I will engage you because your view of the middle east and the humans who live there is troubling.
A teaching today spoke of how this is the "Hook in the jaw" that will draw Putin into Israel, Putin at odds with Erdogan as Turkey supports the rebels overthrowing the Assad regime. Erdogan a while back called all muslims to war with Israel.

Actually Assad is a better alternative than these so called moderate rebels who are in fact Turkish backed terrorists. Assad never messed with Christians in Syria and they were safe, what do you think Will happen with hayat tahrir al sham and all these radicals, they will institute a theocracy

The likelihood of this is slim to none.
HTS's leader is a known terrorist wanted by the US with a $10 million bounty on his head.
Report was his aircraft disappeared from the radar.
These prognostications on whether there will be a better government and such miss completely what is happening as this is more progress to the completion of the Fathers plan to redeem His creation.
We are indeed at the end of the end .......

Syria won't have a better government, after all almost their entire population are pagan. They may have a temporary era of relative peace though as it seems to me Syria is exhausted from a decade of war. I could be wrong though and they might just devolve into even more fractured sectarian in-fighting now that their primary shared enemy is gone, but I think given how fast Assad was toppled in this new offensive and how little resistance was put up that this indicates that Syria is just frankly worn out. The silver-lining for the West, particularly Europe, but also America as well, should be that now is a great time to deport all the invaders back with full justification, get them out fast and get them out en masse.
What is awesome is the jails being emptied out. Some of these are Christians arrested in Lebanon and Jailed in Syria....they have been there for 20 years....isolated and forgotten. Political prisoners imprisoned for being Christians.
The future looks bleak but for today there's joy in receiving family members back from prison.
Well praise Jesus if that is so. I do not begrudge them their celebration, after all Assad also was a pagan and brought on his own people one of the very most bloody civil wars of the century so far, but also remember the bigger picture and that something like only 10% of Syria is Christian, the rest are all pagans. Looking at our people and our interests, now is a great time to deport all the invaders they let in on the pretense of this war. Get them all out of our country, and if Europe is smart, they'll do the same.
The Medes were closely related to the Persians and are considered ancestors of the modern Kurdish people. They are mentioned in the Bible in Genesis 10:2, where Madai, the progenitor of the Medes, is listed as a son of Japheth.
The Medes joined with the Persian empire in conquering the Babylonisn empire . "Darius the Mede" is who greeted Daniel.
These Medes are the ancestors of the Kurds as they are known as today.

It seems the Russian government is reporting that Assad is being given asylum, whether he is there or not right now is unclear, though his wife and kids are known to have been there since the start of the week. Seems Russia is going to add to their growing collection of failed puppets and dethroned dictators.

It would help if Turkey was not intent on committing genocide on the Kurds, ISIS was not intent on enforcing a Muslim caliphate everywhere, Iran just left everyone alone, Islam became the "religion of peace" it claims to be and Israel was not under constant threat. It would also help if Russia kept its nose out of the Middle East.
Blaming America for the problems is ignorance. Kurds were a great help to America when Iraq attacked Kuwait. America is returning the favour. The Kurds are the most deserving of help. They have been kicked around for way too long by way too many for no good reason. America is right to help them out.
