Comment:

On 27 November, 2024, the Syrian opposition factions, especially those based in Idlib, brought the Syrian issue back to the forefront of the world, after it had almost disappeared, and been forgotten, by taking control of all of Aleppo (Halb) and Idlib. These factions surprised the tyrant Assad regime, and the groups supported by Iran. These factions showed the entire world that the revolution in Syria had not died, but is very much alive. They showed that what had happened before was just a warrior’s rest, and that they were capable of exploding at any moment.

These events also showed that if America had not brought its agents into the region to support its agent Bashar al-Assad, and keep him in power, his agent regime would have fallen at the beginning of the revolution. However, America, which does not want a regime outside its control such as the Khilafah (Caliphate), first brought the Hezb of Iran, from Lebanon into Syria in 2013. When America failed in the face of the sweeping popular revolution, that swept away everything in its path, in 2015 Washington resorted to bringing in the Russian bear, whose ambition to become a global power was exploited by America. Although the Assad regime, under the protection and patronage of its international master, used explosive barrels, whilst Russia launched airstrikes that destroyed stone and people, they were unable to break the defiant resistance and patient steadfastness of the people of Syria. When Russia also failed, America resorted to bringing in Turkey through the Euphrates Shield and Olive Branch operations to dismantle the opposition forces, which led to the surrender of Aleppo to the regime, through conspiracies.

Therefore, the opposition must categorically reject any deceptive solutions or conspiracies, regardless of their source, whether from America or Turkey. It must reject anything other than the goal of overthrowing the tyrannical regime in Damascus and establishing a system based on Islam. It is not possible for good to come from evil regimes like that of America and Turkey. Waiting for these regimes to help the Syrian revolution and Muslims is like waiting for good from the Shaytan.

The Hezb of Iran is in trouble in Lebanon, whilst Russia faces major challenges in Ukraine. The Syrian opposition must seize this opportunity to strike at Damascus, a fragile regime that is no stronger than a spider’s web. Among this opposition are those who love Islam, and aspire to establish an Islamic state. Advance and complete your work, and pressure the regime, so that it ends forever.

The Islamic Ummah has suffered for more than a hundred years from tribulations and tragedies, and with every passing day, its pains and sorrows increase. Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen and Syria are all drenched in blood. The sons of this Ummah lack a shield to protect their blood, honor, and dignity. As for the traitorous Muslim rulers, they have stood on one side, and the Ummah on the other opposing one. What is happening in Palestine and Gaza in particular, and in Syria, is stark evidence of that. The Jewish entity, the brothers of swine and monkeys, has been persisting in a war of genocide against Gaza for more than a year. Yet all the traitorous rulers have made efforts to help and secure the Jewish entity, instead of supporting the oppressed.

Therefore, the Syrian opposition must realize that any project that is not based on the Khilafah, whether it is called a transitional administration or any other name, is a trap that must be avoided. Allah (swt) said,

[يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنْ تَنْصُرُوا اللَّهَ يَنْصُرْكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَكُمْ]

“O you who have believed, if you support Allah, He will support you and plant firmly your feet.” [TMQ Surah Muhammad 47:7]
