As a Syrian living in Syria, I am telling you, You can NEVER live comfortably in Syria unless: 1- You are a thief (protected by corrupt officials).. 2- You have somebody outside the country aiding you with money. other than that you are doomed to sadness and injustice and no hope or future. and if you wanna save yourself you should immigrate. this is the situation in safe areas where there is no war -Currently- so even if the war is considered "over" which has never happened yet, the financial situation is still even harder to live through. my People are really hardworking people, everywhere they go they try to make a living and help their people in Syria, so do not be harsh to our immigrants, they are the hope of a new Syrian generation that can live peacefully and hopefully rebuild Syria in the future.

As a Kurd from Afrin, Northern Syria, I can truly say that we, the Kurds, are deeply devastated! No one wants to recognize us. Moreover, our homes have been taken by the Turkish army and handed over to Arab mercenaries, who now control our city. The dictator Assad views us as a potential threat that could divide the country, using this as an excuse to avoid recognizing our rights.

[@fredshred5194]

He was elected, unlike any Kurd, you just lackeys for the US. And funny its not just Assad that has problems with Kurds but Turkey as well. Assad is the most secular ELECTED President in that region and yet somehow you Kurds can't live in peace in Syria. If you can't live peace within Syria do you think it will get any better with an ISIS running the country ? If they get back in power they will wipe out all Kurds

Tbf there was no way to divide the Ottoman empire without fracturing the region. Human civilisation in the area is just too old with too many conflicting religions, cultures and ethnic identities with too few natural barriers such as large rivers to allow small states to survive. If there's not some overarching imperial identity to unite them, they just start fighting until one group gains supremacy; we've seen this repeated many times throughout history, from the Persian Empire to the various caliphates and the Ottomans. The issue is, a centralised state of that size is a threat to all of Europe - just look at what happened to Turkey & the Balkans. Were it not for the Reconquista, the Crusades and other such transnational military campaigns to push back against foreign incursion, Europe would've been annexed centuries ago. It's also impossible for a foreign power to administrate a region that large/disparate. There are no happy answers, just different degrees of bad.

The US began laundering weapons to Nusra, Ahrar ash-Sham in 2012 northern Syria as proxies against Assad (whose regime retained overwhelming Syrian support, not because it was good, but because it was better than the alternative).

One thing you didn’t mention is that according to SOHR, HTS is readying up for potential offensives in the case of a war between Israel and the axis of resistance. They hope to retake a lot of territory including even potentially Aleppo city. The National Front of Liberation, Ansar Tahweed, and other rebel groups HTS is allies or frenemies with would almost certainly join. They also have cells within Daraa that intend to activate and make major moves in the event of such a war. Those cells are being bolstered by recruiting young men who lost fathers or other family to the regime who were more than happy to join HTS to avenge them. HTS and the other rebels will absolutely capitalize on any war that comes from Israel and there could be very substantial results from it.
