Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

This is going to break US relations with the very rebels we funded to success in Syria. No way do they take a massive loss of territory lying down, which means they'll get into conflict with Isreal, which means they'll get on America's shit list, which means they'll go to Russia in search of allies, and we're gonna be right back to where we were at (from a regional strategic perspective) when the whole fucking war started - only this time instead of a baathist dictator they'll have a salafi one.
I guess that's the theme for America's interventions in the middle east. Decades of death and destruction only for things to go right back to how they were.
‘Syria will not engage in conflict with Israel’: HTS chief breaks silence on Israeli assaults from Iranian press:
It’s already very clear that HTS listens to what the US tells them.
I didn't know about that statement... but we'll see how long it lasts.
