While many media outlets were celebrating the overthrow of the Assad dictatorship in Syria, we warned that as good as that news was, the new bosses may be just as bad or worse, since they’re a collection of radical Islamic militants led by a former al-Qaeda leader. Well, it’s only been a few days, and the world is fast learning some hard truths. The rebels are reportedly already executing their opponents, kidnapping women, imposing Sharia law and threatening non-Muslim populations, such as the Kurds.
Meanwhile, the Taliban terrorist government of Afghanistan (thanks, Joe) congratulated the rebels and said, “We express hope that the remaining phases of the revolution will be managed in a way that secures a peaceful, unified, and stable system.” Feel free to shudder at that thought.
As that article reports, the Syrian terrorist leader is doing a full-court propaganda press to the Western media, assuring them that they won’t oppress the Syrian people, and outlets like CNN appear to be falling for it. As Beege Welborn at Hotair.com reports in entertainingly brutal style, our incompetent Secretary of State Antony Blinken also seems to be falling for it.
All this while Israel is again being criticized for taking advantage of the chaos to wipe out Assad’s war-making facilities before they fall into the rebels’ hands. And the Biden White House does deserve credit for reiterating our support for Israel in defending itself. A word of warning: If Israel doesn’t destroy Assad’s chemical weapons, someone will have to do it, and we doubt it will be the terrorists some media outlets are fawning over.
