The globalists who supported Assad's fall are the bad guys as it'll only spell more death and suffering.
This is something leftists especially don't understand: Democracy DOESN'T work everywhere. In quite a lot of places, having a dictator in charge ensures the peace because they act as the central pillar of power keeping different fractions in line.
With Assad gone they'll quickly try to secure power for each of their seperate groups, devolve into infighting and probably have jihadies executing people openly as a power play. The only good thing is he's still alive so whether it's Iran or even the Saudis, they have a legitimate claim to take back the country if it gets too bad that people openly support his return.
It seems though Assad brought this upon himself and might not even wanted to stay in power. According to Iranian sources (take it with a big grain of salt) he refused to open another front in the Golan heights (despite Israel regularly bombing Syria), tried to get ever more friendly with Saudi Arabia and pretty much refused/did not ask for any help from Iran. And now the Republic of Syria is no more and Israel swoops in and takes territory while Syria falls into chaos.
So the question is if Assad was part of this plot or if he was just that incompetent that he trusted the wrong people and did not see any of this coming.
That's IF it's believed that siding with Iran more WOULD'VE saved his regime.
Iran and it's proxies have been taking a battering from Israel lately and Russia is drained from their war. Trying to be friendly with the Saudis sounds like trying to save his skin more than anything knowing that Iran doesn't have the cheques that don't bounce to back up it's rhetoric.

Everyone is drained. The US is drained from supplying Ukraine and Israel. Israel is drained by Gaza, Hezbollah and Yemen.
That's IF it's believed that siding with Iran more WOULD'VE saved his regime.
The way things went nothing Iran or Russia could've done would've saved his regime. That's why I'm asking the question whether or not Assad was in on it or if he was just that grossly incompetent.
Who takes control of Syria after the dust settles remains to be seen. It's going to be a massive shitshow between all the different factions. It's not like the entire thing is a straight Iran vs Israel or US vs Russia proxy conflict.

The US can just print $200 billion like that and European leaders, morons that they are, keep their worthless paper as a reserve currency.
Is this stupidity, or is this treason?
