In retrospect, the flight from #Afghanistan can be seen as strong evidence for the crumbling #Soviet empire. With hindsight, the #Syrian debacle might be a similar pivotal moment in time for the #Kremlin regime of the #RussianFederation.

On the face of it, for now, #Putin is losing the strategically important only Mediterranean naval base. In other regions, where the Kremlin has stationed RF forces, the boot of the invader on the local people's neck might begin to feel a bit lighter, as in #Georgia, where a political coup by the #Russian supported ruling party is strongly opposed by the people...

This is called ‘pressing your advantage’ - From the AL Monitor: “Washington’s embassy in Beirut announced on Wednesday that it has brought in a new general to oversee US-led monitoring of the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire as Lebanon’s government faces increased pressure from Israel and the United States to move against Hezbollah.
US Army Maj. Gen. Michael Leeney will take over for Maj. Gen. Jasper Jeffers, allowing Jeffers to focus on his main role overseeing all American special operations forces in the Middle East and Central Asia as the Pentagon gears up for potential conflict with Iran.” It looks very much to me like the US is putting maximum pressure on Iran, including undermining their proxies like Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis in Yemen. The #SyrianRevolution already ran Iran’s militias and diplomats out of Syria. #Lebanon #MENA #Levant #Israel #Iran #War #ForeignAffairs #Syria #yemen -
"For my own part, #Syria will not return for good without you, Sammour. This leaves me almost paralyzed. I share in the joy of my friends, but something sticks in my throat. Thousands have been released from #Assad’s horrific prisons, but as long as your absence continues, a part of Syria will not be liberated." - #YassinAlHajSaleh

Remember Omar Aziz: Reviewing The Syrian Revolution Reader
Since the so-called “End of History,” (at the very least), many people (especially those who look like me) on Turtle Island have been living in a general state of “colonial unknowing” and a fake sense that their immediate world is extraordinary safe and peaceful (at least domestically). I have a hunch that this bubble of willful ignorance is popping (or at least, shrinking). From Land and Water Defenders shutting down “Canada” in 2019 and 2020, to the Black Lives Matter […]https://kostyn.ca/remember-omar-aziz-reviewing-the-syrian-revolution-reader/
