End of the Syrian Arab Republic: the caliphate begins

The Syrian army continues to abandon its positions, the support of the Lebanese Shiite militias is lacking, the contribution of the Iraqi militias is insufficient, Iran has not reached.

During the night of today the situation worsened for the government forces. There have been reports of extremist rebel forces entering some neighborhoods of Damascus without major countermeasures from the regular Syrian army. Damascus International Airport has ceased its activity. Rebel/jihadist forces claim to have taken over the headquarters of Syrian state television and radio.

Damascus was declared an “open city” and fell without a fight later. Damascus can be considered fallen and with it the Syrian Arab Republic.

Israel takes possession of the demilitarized zone on the Golan. The threat coming from the new sultanate of Syria is real; it also massively strengthens the northern border where the following are deployed: the Golani brigade, the Nahal brigade, the 98 division, the "commando" brigade and the parachute brigade. The elite of the Israeli armed forces have been mobilized.

The so-called "Shiite crescent" that united Iran to the Mediterranean is a thing of the past. In its place rises a Turkish crescent, a geostrategic structure that unites Turkey to the Israeli Golan, which will make its effects felt throughout the Mediterranean, in Lebanon, Libya and Egypt. A destabilizing element for the balance of all the realities overlooking the Mediterranean. Greece, Israel, Italy and Europe have a new competitor, an erratic and unscrupulous diplomatic, political, economic and military merchant. Do not rejoice that the collapse of an enemy, a new adversary arises in the east.

Assad and family are now in Moscow. The flight identified this afternoon was probably the one with the Al Assad family on board.
