@TrevorGoodchild Pespective tldr.

Syria is a proxy war between russia and usa.

Turkey, iran and israel are supposed to tertiary actors because of small national interests and proximity(borders)

Syria collapse is a complete surprise. USA, russia, iran and china did not forsee the complete surrender of the legitimate gov(assad) within 6 days. Assad was supposed be sitting in on a arab league meeting, he didnt even get a chance.

Internationally the current head of the new syrian goverment is an acknowledged terrorist.(Zelensky looking jew mutt), captured by americans when he was 17, trained first hand by Baghdadi(yeah the bin laden successor himself) while in us prison.
