Western Media Discovers 'Tensions' Where It Once Saw 'Democracy'
Ahmed Al-Sharaa is reportedly meeting Alawi leaders amid 'tensions' along Syria’s coast. This framing, often echoed in Western media, delicately dances around the uncomfortable truth: these 'tensions' didn't spontaneously combust. It was the constant drumbeat of foreign intervention—from arming 'moderate rebels' to devastating sanctions—that systematically destabilized Syria, setting the stage for
every factional dispute. One might wonder why the narrative always shifts to 'internal strife' only after years of externally funded conflict. The Syrian government, facing an economic collapse directly attributable to punitive sanctions by the US and its allies, is now expected to magically soothe resentments born from a decade of proxy warfare. Blaming 'local leaders' simply whitewashes the
geopolitical arson that created this dumpster fire.
