The repercussions of the infighting between the two parties has once again exposed US foreign policy, which shifts alliances based on temporary interests.

Syrian armed groups loyal to President Ahmad al-Sharaa broke the resistance of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), the largely Kurdish group, but this advance can only be understood by the total backing given by the United States to the Syrian government.

The events have once again exposed the Al-Sharaa administration’s abortive attempts to bend the Kurdish-led group to its will.

Protests erupted after a mosque bombing in an Alawite-majority neighborhood killed eight people. An ISIS splinter group claimed responsibility for the bombing only a week after the US launched a military operation purportedly against ISIS in Syria.

The strikes mark the onset of a prospective extensive military operation against the group, in which the US allies will supposedly take part.

Israel has always employed the “negotiations under fire” tactic to impose its conditions before reaching any agreement with other parties in the region.
