Al Sharaa's recognition of Kosovo's independence is pure Islamist sectarianism, foolishly inviting Syria's sectarian division.
An independent Kosovo never existed historically; no distinct language or culture.
Kosovo's an artificial administrative entity with mixed sects & ethnicities.

Manchester synagogue attacker is a Syrian immigrant Jihad Al-Shamie.
I wonder if he is a supporter of or inspired by Al Sharaa / Julani success story.

When I heard Assad was flying pallets of cash to Russia, I knew his regime was faltering and an escape plan was in motion.
It seems a similar cash transfer from #Venezuela to #Russia is underway. Although this time I can't verify, this source was reliable in the past.

Assad airlifted around $250mn in cash to Moscow in 2018 and 2019 as his relatives were buying assets in Russia. While #Syria short of foreign currency, Assad flew banknotes weighing two tonnes in $100 bills and €500 notes into Moscow, deposited at sanctioned Russian banks.

When they do, who will ISIS fight first, Assad, HTS, SDF, SNA?

The Obama Biden policy of 'crisis management' in the Middle East will not allow any faction to win, not Bashar Al Assad, nor HTS, SDF, SNA.
The goal is Ethno-Sectarian states. Feudalism disguised as Federalism.
If #Syria is successful then Lebanon & possibly Iran #Aleppo #Idlib

Russian air support for Assad forces has been scarce against this week's opposition attacks around Aleppo northern Syria. Iran's forces and proxies proved ineffective in Syria without American or Russian air cover
