That’s what the neocons and their ISIS allies would have us believe. And yet, with ISIS and McCain’s islamist rebel buddies out of Aleppo, Christians are returning to areas under govt control.

I know a conservative evangelical Christian who lived for several several years under Assad Sr. Not free, but Christians were not oppressed. Surveiled to a degree, yes. The radical islamists we then, as now, the enemy.

Over 600,000 displaced persons/refugees returned to Aleppo in 2017. Pictures I saw last week from there showed people in one of their beautiful parks. At Christmas, people were worshipping in restored Churches.

One thing that has impressed me in places like Aleppo was how quickly I saw Syrians and Russians repaving roads, repairing infrastructure. It was something I have never seen.

Where I live it’s like an obstacle course to avoid potholes that feel like your wheel just broke off if you hit one.
