This could be good news for Syria and Ukraine. The Russians are evacuating the airfield in Syria using, ironically, Ukranian built aircraft (civilian). The "rebel group" has been on extremely good at talking to all sorts of people in villages and areas to provide stability. Assad apparently flew in an aircraft from Damascus which "disappeared" from radar. Nobody knows what happened. This group has some extremely intelligent people planning out the security, the security of the people, the logistics. Amazing. 54 years of brutal dictatorship is gone. Syrians, please take time to think about what you need, what you deserve. Assad is gone.

The hour of God's judgment has arrived. The nations, towns, and people who prevent the preaching of the gospel given by Jesus, the Son of God, will fall under the curse of hatred, war, and destruction.
