Assad complied, and it did nothing to halt the gayops against him. He's fortunate to be alive right now rather than getting Gaddafi'd. There's really no point in co-operating with the US on any of this. For all the talk about the Iranians being fanatical psychos, they're actually restrained and naive to an almost buffoonish degree.
The point wasn't for him to stop being overthrown (that was a goal since at least the mid 90's). The point was that it no longer justified American or Israeli air strikes on his territory. It bought time, and allowed for fixed-wing air support to stop. Hell, he damn well almost won the war for a minute there.
You're assessment of Iran is just wrong, as they've been engaged in an international irregular warfare campaign to spread the "Islamic Revolution" across the entire region. They're not complete fanatical psychos, but they're also not naive (I wouldn't be surprised if this justifies what amounts to a military coup where the ayatollah is 'tragically killed by the American pig-dog bombing campaign').

The region is already Islamic.
Yes but it's the wrong Islamic.
This is a pretty common thread in the history of all Islamic civil wars.
What do you mean? Iran is Shia and backs Hamas who is Sunni.
All the better, infighting amongst our enemies is desired.
