THE FALL OF ASSAD! HOW ISRAEL, TURKEY, AND IRAN ARE REDRAWING SYRIA? Lumumba Explain

[@BarStooolPundit]

President Obama started 'Operation Timber Sycamore,' which was a CIA black book op to remove Bashar al-Assad. Its reported to have maybe started in 2008. There is a documentary called ''Obama at War'' that covers how the CIA trained, armed,and paid off civilians and rebels to fight during the Arab Spring. In 2002, Netanyahu named 7 countries that they (Israel, using the US) needed to invade. Of the 7 nations, only Iran remains today. And you can be sure it will be next, maybe after Iraq. Also, Bashar wasn't even meant to become president; his brother was. I'll tell you this: very few countries can survive if the US and Israel set their crosshairs on you. How many countries can you say are better off after the US, NATO, and Israel invaded? The reasons for Israel and Turkey are pretty obvious. For the US, its divide and conquer-and its all about Iran, which leads to BRICS (Russia), then to pivoting to Asia (China). Its never about democracy and freedom and all that crap they peddle us. Edit: Please recall that the US created ISIS. And the US has been arming terrorists to do their dirty work since using the Mujahideen during the Shah of Iran. then against Soviet Union in Afghanistan. They then name a group ''terrorists'' when they no longer have use for them. Right now some NATO members are considering removing HTS (Hayat Tahir al Sham) from the terrorist list (they are the ones who put them there in the first place, and their leader has a usd 10 million bounty on his head by the US.) So if anyone benefits from war, its the US, Israel, and then NATO. Without war in the Middle East, Israel is done. Without a war economy and war all over the world, the US is done. Without Russia, NATO is done.

[@waselahendricks3995]

So totally agree with you. It's the US that spews forth useless words like democracy, morality and ethics, but the US is in actual fact the bully of the world. Wherever they invade a country directly or indirectly, havoc, chaos and mayhem ensues. South Africa is currently on the same path of destruction. They label people who resist their moronic laws as terrorists, but the US is the biggest and only breeder of terrorists and mercenaries . So yes, they create labels and divide, conquer and rule. When countries confront their imperialism, such countries are crushed. It is solely the us and the Zionist OCCUPIERS that have caused wars, divisiveness, chaos and mayhem in the middle east, where they have installed puppet leaders to do their bidding, like the president in Egypt, king of Jordan. It is by no means a coincidence that Syria has fallen. This was all the US and the Zionist OCCUPIERS doing. Weakening Hezbollah with their so called ceasefire, because the Zionist OCCUPIERS are surely losing the battle against the resistance fighters.

A very interesting perspective on the past, present and future of the complex existence of Syria. As always, Prof. Lumumba does not disappoint.

[@linogomic4981]

The fall of Assad would signify a seismic shift in the Middle Eastern geopolitics. Israel, Turkey, and Iran have competing interests in Syria and could influence its post-Assad restructuring. Israel seeks security by weakening Iran-backed militias like Hezbollah. Turkey, focused on curbing Kurdish autonomy, might establish control over northern regions to protect its borders. Iran, Assad's ally, would likely struggle to maintain influence as rival powers gain ground. This redrawing risks turning Syria into fragmented spheres of influence, perpetuating instability. True peace requires an inclusive political solution involving Syrian voices, regional dialogue, and international cooperation, instead of foreign domination and endless proxy conflicts. Achieving this remains an elusive challenge...

I hold the view that it will take an agonising 25 years, as Lumumba has pointed out for the confusion in Syria to end, probably to Syria's detriment.

Dear friend, do you know that you are loved and valued by God? Despite our mistakes and shortcomings, God's love for us remains unwavering. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to earth to demonstrate this love. He lived a sinless life, taught us about God's love, and ultimately gave His life on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. But that's not the end of the story! Jesus rose from the dead on the third day, defeating sin and death. Through faith in Him, we can experience forgiveness, new life, and eternal salvation. If you're searching for meaning, purpose, and a personal relationship with God, Jesus is the answer. He invites you to come to Him, just as you are, and experience His love and transformation.
