Might Be The End of an Era- Dictator Bashar al-Assad and his family flea, ending his regime

[Nascimento]

He's not his father
Old man wasn't squimish when it came to dropping bodies

He tossed out ghaffari and IRGC in 2021 for being too aggressive vs US troops.

A large contingent of these Salafi jihadists remained in Syria since then.

Unfinished business.

 

[num123]

This is sad looks like Syria is done.

Guy was a democratically elected leader too.

The west put the green light on him

I remember how betrayed he felt for trusting the west in a couple videos from years ago.

Ruasia tried helping them but the problems were too many for them to handle ultimately.

Isnotreal on that fukk shyt still. Convincing their lapdog, the west, to do their bidding.

 

[Apollo Creed]

Yeah, versus Iran, Russia and Syrian and Iraqi forces. A counteroffensive is mobilizing.

Turkey been playing these brics countries as a partner and developing deals and economic and energy deals with Russia, they're building a big nuclear plant in Turkey. Now they've struck Syria and want to leverage that into concessions from Russia in their dealings.

the whole brics thing seems like a shyt show honestly I was literally reading about it over 10 yrs ago in college lol. That said this shyt is always fascinating tome.

 

[richaveli83]

I'm actually surprised Assad has lasted this long. The civil war has been going on since 2011.

 

[Georgiamuscle]

BRICS! Multipolar world!

Assad’s family ‘flees’ to Russia – but Kremlin ‘won’t come’ to Syrian leader’s rescue

Bashar al-Assad’s family fled to Russia in the days after rebel forces launched a shock offensive that captured swathes of territory across northern Syria, it has been revealed.

[IAMDetroit]

Obama signed off on a neocon plan to take out Syria and Assad, like same as Libya and ghadaffi. This is a continuation of that, a gambit while Russians and Iranians and Hezbollah have their attention elsewhere.

Basically arm, train and provide intelligence to militant islamists that are the ideological and theological descendants of Al Qaeda and want to establish a Caliphate. The very same lunatic jihadists that perpetrated 9/11. They became Isis which later got cleaned up by Russia and Iran.

Well now they're back for round 2.

Syria and Assad is no threat to the US. It's just another convenient adversary for the MIC to paint as an enemy while throwing another country into turmoil and keeping the gravy train going. Basically doing Israels bidding.

Project For A New American Century
Libya and Syria were on the list too.
So no surprise

 

[Bushmaster69]

Lol!

Say what you will, but there was an election. It isn't a monarchy. Deapite how long he and his father served.

Now the methods he used to obtain that presidency is obviously up for question. However, if his election isn't legitimate, then how much is the americans who are controlled by the deep state, and other nation's leaders, who on paper won, but used election fraud, intimidation, and killings to win?

I just hope you have the same energy for the other so called "democratically elected" leaders in other regions of the world, including your own.

Bashar al-Assad | Family, Biography, & Facts | Britannica

Bashar al-Assad, president of Syria since 2000, when he succeeded his father, Hafez al-Assad. In spite of early hopes that he would support democratic reforms, he largely continued his father’s authoritarian methods. Beginning in 2011, he faced a major uprising that evolved into civil war.

Presidency​

Hafez al-Assad died on June 10, 2000. Hours after his death, the national legislature approved a constitutional amendment lowering the minimum age for the president from 40 to 34, Bashar al-Assad’s age at the time. On June 18 Assad was appointed secretary-general of the ruling Baʿath Party, and two days later the party congress nominated him as its candidate for the presidency; the national legislature approved the nomination. On July 10, running unopposed, Assad was elected to a seven-year term.


Although many Syrians objected to the transfer of power from father to son, Bashar’s ascent engendered some optimism both in Syria and abroad. His youth, education, and exposure to the West seemed to offer the possibility of a departure from what had been the status quo: an authoritarian state, policed by a network of powerful overlapping security and intelligence agencies, and a stagnant state-run economy reliant on shrinking oil reserves. In his inaugural speech, Assad affirmed his commitment to economic liberalization and vowed to carry out some political reform, but he rejected Western-style democracy as an appropriate model for Syrian politics.

Assad announced that he would not support policies that might threaten the dominance of the Baʿath Party, but he slightly loosened government restrictions on freedom of expression and the press and released several hundred political prisoners. Those early gestures contributed to a brief period of relative openness, dubbed the “Damascus Spring” by some observers, in which public political discussion forums emerged and calls for political reform were tolerated. Within months, however, Assad’s regime changed course, using threats and arrests to extinguish pro-reform activism. Afterward Assad emphasized that economic reforms would have to precede political reforms.

Politics of Syria - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Politics in the Syrian Arab Republic takes place in the framework of a presidential republic with nominal multi-party representation in People's Council under the Ba'athist-dominated National Progressive Front. In practice, Syria is a one-party state where independent parties are outlawed; with a powerful secret police that cracks down on dissidents. Since the 1963 seizure of power by its Military Committee, the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party has governed Syria as a totalitarian police state.[a] After a period of intra-party strife, Hafez al-Assad gained control of the party following the 1970 coup d'état and his family has dominated the country's politics ever since.

Please stop talking, it is clear you do not know what you are talking about and are too hardheaded to learn.

Dude is the local Russian propaganda outlet

 

[Wiseborn]

Yeah, if Russia wasn't preoccupied in Ukraine, the rebels wouldn't be making so much progress.

Yup. Hezballah is checked in Lebanon a bunch of migrants in Turkey Rebels backed by Turkey and low key america and Israel it’s looking like a wrap for Assad.

Trump could make a deal to keep him in Damascus to prevent more people from dipping and having to send even more US money there to fix the place.

Since its next to small hat land there’s no way the US isn’t gonna get out of paying ex Assad soldiers from becoming terrorists and criminals and fukking with Israel.

If it were me I’d say let him stay in Damascus and keep him boxed in.

Besides the Rebels might start infighting ( the Kurds already don’t fukk with them) and could try to turn the place Islamist.

The only thing clear is that you view this only through the lens of the western world.

Thanks for stating the obvious that the west doesn't approve of his presidency.

Syria election: Bashar al Assad elected for fourth term as president after winning 95.1% of the vote

Leaders in the West say the election lacked international monitoring and violated UN resolutions for a fair vote.

news.sky.com

Syria's President Bashar al Assad has been re-elected with 95.1% of the vote, according to officials in the country, as the West denounced the vote as illegitimate.

Officials said 78.6% of eligible voters cast their ballot - but in a country where many are displaced after a 10-year conflict, this figure has been questioned.

I never said Bashir didn't use tactics that were not questionable to obtain presidency. I am well aware he doeant approve of "western style democracy". Nor does the west approve of his style of democracy. However, he claims, and his allies agree, that he was democratically elected. That's all I am saying. Everything else we are not disagreeing on.

Countries that recognizae him as a democratically elected leade include Russia, Iran, China, North Korea, Vietnam, Fiji, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Laos, Myanmar, Cambodia, Thailand, Philippines,India,Pakistan,Bangladesh, Malaysia,Indonesia, Brunei, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan,Mongolia,Tajikistan,Greece, Cyprus, North Macedonia,Czech Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Serbia, Montenegro,Vatican City and Belarus.

If using repression and secret police to enforce the country's policy of only allowing the ruling party to run is "democracy" to you, well i do not know what to tell you.

Guy, I just explained myself pretty well to you.

If you want to continue to be obtuse, then continue.
