Heck, we do not have a clue who the new leadership is. Biden thinks they are all ISIS fighters, maybe they are. Assad was supported by Iran and Russia to maintain Russia’s seaport in Syria, what now?

I wonder who the rebels were getting their support from? MY guess? Think Arab Spring. Think Obama and Clinton supporting both sides to maintain balance and power. As Syria is a neighbor of Israel, their allegiance to Iran vs. Saudi Arabia (Shia vs. Sunni) may make a huge difference to the balance of power in the ME. You can bet that all sides are racing to get the allegiance of whoever rises as the leader of Syria. The USA is in last place here, it will not be long before all those boots on the ground in Syria are going to be asked to leave, ours, Russia’s. Israel’s. That seaport will become a cruise ship terminal?????
