Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa is a former al-Qaeda terrorist who has also worked closely with Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, before double crossing him. The only thing that has changed about al-Sharaa is his name (from Abu Mohammad al-Jolani) and his attire: He now wears a suit. He has fooled the naive West, including […]
U.S. slams Israeli strikes on Syrian base as ‘unnecessary escalation,’ but which side is really escalating?
We are deeply concerned that the confirmed Israeli airstrikes on Abu al-Duhur Airbase constitute an unnecessary escalation that does not advance regional stability. The Al-Sharra government has neither adopted a predatory posture nor maintained proxy forces. It has, in fact,… — Ambassador Tom Barrack (@USAMBTurkiye) August 18, 2026 This comes along with the news of […]
Syrian Government Persecutes Christians, Alawites, Kurds, and Druze
Ahmed al-Sharaa presents himself as a “moderate” to the world, someone who is ready to make peace with Israel (provided, of course, that Israel returns all of the Golan Heights to Syria, something Jerusalem will never do), someone worthy of American political and economic support. But the persecution of Christians, Alawites, and other minorities suggest […]
Trump Wants Syria to ‘Fight Hezbollah’ in Lebanon
And both Israel and Lebanon are appalled. Trump sees Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa as a “strong leader,” someone who can take on Hezbollah and deal better with it than Israel. That is not how either Beirut or Jerusalem sees things. More on Trump’s suggestion that Lebanon let Syria back in to crush Hezbollah can be […]
Trump says jihadi al-Sharaa of Syria would be better than Israel at ‘sorting out Hizballah’
🔴 JUST NOW – Mind-boggling. Trump states that he put Jolani in Syria and Jolani should be the one sorting Hezbollah out in Lebanon and not Israel. “The man that is running Syria now is a man that I put there” “He’s done an amazing job at pulling it together. He’s not a… pic.twitter.com/SHupST6urS — […]
Syria: Government-supported campaign, associated with al-Qaeda and ISIS, seeks to return Syria to Salafism
The Sharia-compliant Sheikh al-Dhahabi Campaign fits like a glove with the mission of former al-Qaeda man Ahmed Al-Sharaa, who is now president of Syria. Al-Sharaa also worked with ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi before double-crossing him out of loyalty to al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri. As the Lowy Institute has pointed out, the deluded West is […]
Syria: Massive crowds scream ‘All of Syria is Hamas. Let’s attack the Jews.’
It is clearer by the day that Ahmed al-Sharaa is still an Islamic jihadi, and that his supporters know that and approve of it. So how long will Trump continue to support him? “‘Attack the Jews’: Syrians chant Jihad against Israel in mass protests,” by Yulia Pobegailova, i24News, April 3, 2026: Thousands of Syrians […]
Germany Wants to Deport Syrian ‘Refugees’ Back to Syria; Syria Wants Them to Stay Where They Are
Now that the Syrian civil war is over, there is no reason for the millions of Syrians who fled the war and went to Europe claiming, and receiving, “refugee status,” to remain in Europe. In particular, the German government wants the 900,000 Syrians now in the country to go back to Syria. But the Syrian […]
Syria Asks Germany Not to Send Back Its Citizens
Syria has just asked Germany not to deport Syrians back to Syria, claiming they would make Syria “too dangerous.” Apparently the Germans are supposed to endure that danger themselves. More on this preposterous request, and the reaction to it in Germany, can be found here: “Syria asks Germany not to deport its citizens back home, […]
A ‘Sunni Crescent’ Composed of Syria and Turkey Threatens Israel
The Syrian jihadist government has been consolidating its power by systematically attacking the minorities — Alawites, Druze, and the Kurds — in the country. It has just taken over the Kurdish-majority city of Qashmili, and has forced the dismantlement of the Kurdish autonomous region in northeast Syria, with the Kurdish militia of the Syrian Democratic […]
