Miraculous time for all those innocents tortured in Assad’s prisons and liberated since this toppeling. “A blessing from God (Allah)” they will say.

Lots of misplaced optimism in this thread.
Can anyone EILI5 what the implications of this might be, and why?
Nobody knows, probably all of them will start a war with each other and isis somehow will return.
I am not optimistic that this will turn out well in any way for anyone.
There are multiple groups whose goals are in conflict, at best they will form a working non religious government.
Maybe. Until they fight it out and one of them comes out on top.

What Netanyahu statement?

Oh. I mean I don’t know how direct it is but unfortunately (???) Israel contributed to a good thing for once. If this results in a free Syria I don’t know he probably won’t be able to sleep at night, but either way I think he’s trying to take credit for it rather than Assad falling being some kind of 5D chess move. If it was anything like that Islamists wouldn’t have been leading the offensive and HTS (which is Islamist) wouldn’t be set to have the most influence in the post-Assad government.

Huh? That’s so wrong I have no idea where you got it from. ISIS do not represent Islamists in general, or anyone but themselves. I’m not using “bad apples” logic here; ISIS was bad enough to be rejected by other Islamists, and almost everyone else. Israel, and the West in general, absolutely despise Islamists because they among other things are fundamentally opposed to Western hegemony and Israeli Apartheid, as would be observed from US behavior during the war on terror and its consideration of every Islamist organization out there are terrorist.
