When Syria's Al-Qaeda besiege Druze in the south and Kurds in the north that's also stability.

"Jordans monarchy is also frightened of the expanding Muslim Brotherhood Turkish empire through Syria. Removing U.S. troops from Tanf will further scare Jordanians into taking populist stances that are more antagonistic toward Israel. But Syria now belongs to Sharaa.

Iranian outdated Islamism (boldly expressing Islamist supremacy and hatred toward the rest of the world) buys Shia Islamist Maliki hate in Washington."

"In my posts asking what makes America endorse Sharaa but not Maliki Im not advocating for Maliki. On the contrary I want America to reject both Sharaa and Maliki. Syria and Iraq have plenty of honest capable leaders other than these thug jihadi Islamist militiamen"
