"As today painfully shows again the many speeches statements and meetings about tolerance diversity and inclusion at the political top mean very little if these principles are not enforced in the lower ranks of the military. In the Syrian military sectarianism fundamentalism and humiliation of minorities remain very normalized if not the dominant narrative.

"Very true also Jordan will refuse any calls for a unofficial border crossing with Suwayda as it is finally improving relations with Damascus again and will not seek to jeopardize that by undermining it in Suwayda. Despite all the bloodshed expulsions and abuses by all sides Damascus and Suwayda will need to find a working relationship on economic grounds unless the Druze enclave wants to be fully dependent on humanitarian aid going forward.

"This really show how in the end it was never Hikmat's goal to save the Druze people. Hikmat's interests was only his own well being and now that Sunni tribal forces are once again breaching into Suwayda and the Israelis are not coming to his aid he's asking for protection from the Damascus government. The very same government whose forces he ambushed and executed on numerous occasions the same government which offered him multiple ceasefires to deescalate the situation all of which he refused.

"Unsurprising. Hikmat has placed himself outside of the Syrian state through his actions the past days and closed the door to a deal so he has not options but to continue fighting. He'll try again to bait the Syrian state into more fighting.
