Thanks, Michael, for your kind words!
It is amazing to see that many left-wing groups (not only the
pro-China/Russia/Iran campist) simply ignore the revolutionary events in
Syria!

Thanks Michael, excellent writing, certainly one of the best things
I've seen out there, especially with the sudden sea of campist
ignorance being so confidently displayed by so many with zero
knowledge of actual facts, let alone class analysis.
You write, in relation to the more fantastic claims that Israel is
behind the rebel advance: "If Israel had any influence over the Syrian
rebels, why on earth did they not instruct them to launch their
offensive long time ago, before they had to settle for a ceasefire in
Lebanon but only after?! Why did they wait for more than one year
since the beginning of the conflict at the Lebanese-Israeli border on
7 October 2023?!"
Exactly! In fact, there is little doubt that the rebels purposefully
waited until the Lebanon ceasefire precisely so as not to be seen
breaking any transit between Iran and Lebanon across Syria while the
war lasted. Ever since last October, rebel-held Idlib has been a sea
of demonstrations, seminars, donation-drives etc for Gaza (while the
Assad regime bans pro-Palestine demonstrations). And it was difficult
to wait, because ever since last october again, the Assad regime and
Russia have stepped up their bombing of Idlib (regime shows
"resistance" to Zionism by bombing pro-Palestinian populations at the
opposite end of Syria, compass always wonky). That's why the name of
this offensive was "Operation to Deter Aggression" - the initial aim
was to push back against this ongoing aggression, but they were
reluctant to wage it as long as the conflict in Lebanon continued.
The only reason it changed from an operation to deter aggression to an
operation to liberate as much of Syria as they could was because of
the speed with which the completely hollowed-out Assad regime military
collapsed.

*Syria: Notes on the Rebels’ Offensive (02.12.2024)*

The glorious offensive of the Syrian rebels is astonishing by any
standards. In the last few days, they liberated all parts of the
province of Idlib, most of the province of Aleppo – including
Aleppo City, the second largest city of the country with more than
2.3 million people – and entered the province of Hama. The current
front line is north of Hama city.
