Videos Confirm Hundreds Of American Troops Exiting Syria
The New York Times confirmed Thursday that the Pentagon has begun withdrawing hundreds of troops from Syria but will leave over 1,000 in the country for the time being, following prior reports from earlier in the week
This means the occupation will be significantly reduced, but will still be fundamentally in place, in the vicinity of Syria's only oil and gas production sites which historically met the population's domestic needs. "The United States has started drawing down hundreds of troops from northeastern Syria, a reflection of the shifting security environment in the country since the fall of President Bashar al-Assad in December, but also a move that carries risks," says the NY Times.
Massive U.S. Army convoys withdraw from Syria, heading toward Iraq.
The first phase of the U.S. withdrawal from Syria saw around 600 troops pulled out, bringing total troop numbers down to about 1,400.
Three U.S. bases in northeastern...

Mainstream Media Ignoring Ethno-Religious Genocide Under Syria's New Rulers
Mainstream Western media previously wrote several puff pieces on Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and its US-designated terror leader Abu Mohammad al-Jolani in the wake of Assad's ouster, but now that same media is completely ignoring the atrocities taking place under Jolani's watch.
Various armed allied groups of HTS are rampaging through the central and northern countryside, attacking Christians and Alawites, in a developing ethno-religious genocide. It has only been one month since Assad was overthrown.

Initially HTS and other factions, which includes foreign groups such as Chechens and Uyghurs, rounded up individuals and tortured or executed them under the guise that they were former "Assad regime agents".
Now, according to regional reports, the jihadists are dropping even this pretense and are simply taking over Alawite villages. Serious problems and threats are also being reported in th...

Mainstream Media Ignores Sectarian Killings In 'Liberated' Syria While Jolani Plays Nice For Cameras
Since the rapid collapse of the Assad government and the takeover of Damascus by US-designated terror group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) on December 8, Syrians by the hundreds or even thousands have been filmed in city streets celebrating, expressing hope for a new era.
But for every scene of hundreds gathered in a city square in front of Al Jazeera or CNN cameras, the reality is that there are many tens of thousands more families holed up in their homes, deeply fearful of venturing outside, with the more fortunate ones having stocked up on supplies just prior to Abu Mohammad al-Jolani's army of mujahideen fighters entering the capital.
With the basically overnight and shock collapse of a state system earlier this month which had been in place for over a half-century, Syrians whether in Aleppo, Hama, Homs, Latakia, or Damascus have no clue which armed factions might be patrolling the neighb...

What's (State-Funded) Russian Media Saying About Syria's Regime Change?
Authored by Andrew Korybko via substack,
Publicly financed Russian media's reaction to Syria's regime change is a lot different than most could have expected after they earlier warned that this could lead to an unprecedented terrorist crisis.
Those concerns were warranted since Turkish-backed Harat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) is designated as a terrorist group and was originally part of Al Qaeda. Nevertheless, these outlets' reactions have been surprisingly calm, thus suggesting a desire to play everything by ear for the sake of retaining Russian influence there.
RT published two very thought-provoking op-eds since the Syrian Arab Army's (SAA) epic collapse and Assad's cowardly flight from Damascus that are worth reviewing in this context. The first is by Murad Sadygzade, who's President of the Middle East Studies Center and Visiting Lecturer at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow, and answers the question of ??...

In Syrien ist Assad fort, der Bürgerkrieg bleibt (Tichys Einblick)
|
|
Für einen „differenzierten Umgang mit den in Deutschland lebenden Syrern“ plädiert FDP-Generalsekretär Marco Buschmann, „pauschale Dinge“ würden sich verbieten (RTL und ntv). Wer vor vielen Jahren hierhin gekommen sei, von eigener Hände Arbeit lebe, müsse eine Perspektive haben zu bleiben. Anders verhalte es sich mit jenen, die von Transfereinkommen lebten und das sei der größte
