If we have a Syrian “Expert” reading this thread perhaps we could get a short tutorial on what ties Syria to Iran.
And specifically comment on the risk to that relationship from a U.S.-Russian coalition leading the Kurds, the Syrian and Iraqi armies (and minus Turkish or Iranian elements) in a war to the end to eliminate ISIS and al Qaeda and the like from Syria and Iraq.
Seems to me that this would greatly diminish the Iranian influence in Syria, serve Israeli interests, hurt Hamas and The Saudis and Palestinian terrorists and generally ease tensions in the Middle East.
Is this crazy?
The war in Syria, is a Saudi proxy war, because Saudi interests and US interests, cannot be parsed out, by Harvard educated State Department, and CIA professionals; elements of the US government continue to align with the “moderate rebels.”
What is the difference between a moderate rebel, the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda, and ISIS? You will have to go to Mecca or Medina, to find out.
