when all else fail, blame t he jews - Franky

I don't blame the Jews. I blame the west mainly the U.S.
and the U.K for sticking their nose into the Middle East .
Geopolitical conflicts in the ME would better have been
confined to the ME.

Please show me where Islamic Jihadis have ever delivered good governance.

Good point, just look at Hamas.

But the reality is they are currently ruling Syria and given the choice between the West having a little bit of influence and Russia/China/Iran taking advantage of them ...

Israel plans long-term occupation of 'control zone' deep inside Syria
JAN 10, 2025

Israel plans to establish a “control zone” 15 kilometers deep inside Syria and an intelligence “sphere of influence” extending 60 kilometers, claiming the new government in Damascus includes “the most dangerous people in the world,” Ynet reported on 10 December.

Makes sense from Israel's perspective. The US, Russia, and China would all do the same if they were on the border of a HTS led government.

In fact Turkey has done so for a good chunk of the Syrian war and Jordan has backed the US in Southern Syria to reinforce their border.

You are admitting that Israel and the US work with terrorists.
...

You mean like negotiating with Hamas?

And no, the US is willing to negotiate with terrorists if it prevents a worse outcome. Nothing evident about diplomatic relations between Israel and HTS no matter how desperate you are to pretend it's all the fault of the Jews.

Its a war crime.
Why do you always seem to argue that war crimes 'make sense' when Israel does them?

Stealing more land from Syria will not lead to peace.

For years you've been declaring you can't negotiate with Hamas or terrorists.
Israel was founded by terrorists and continues a policy of terrorism, apartheid and genocide.

That is the fault of zionists and your attempt to tar all Jewish people as genocidal zionists is disgusting.
