Part 9/12:
The speaker emphasizes Syria’s political leadership’s contradictions. Once seen as a potential moderate actor that could engage with Israel and the West—especially under the auspices of peace agreements brokered during the Trump administration—Syria has seemingly squandered its opportunity by allowing jihadi groups to carry out atrocities against Arab populations like the Druze.
Ironically, Israel finds itself in a position of defending these Arab communities, despite the regional hostility and complex alliances. By trying to end the slaughter of innocent people, Israel receives little credit or acknowledgment from Western jihadists or the broader international community—highlighting a disturbing hypocracy rooted in biased narratives.
