1. Lmao the guy is a known terrorist but the west once again proves that as long as it’s their terrorists it’s all good . There is no international law or liberal order . It’s just might is right . 

2. It’s so infuriating to watch what west has become.

   The guy was bloody to his eyeballs till yesterday, yelling inshallah with a naked dagger, probably charging the infidels because their women breathe too fast for the prophet’s standards..

   … and today they wash him a bit, put him in a suit and parade him around a bit like we’re in a street theater with painted cardboard reality.

   It’s almost bizarre to watch.

3. Good start for Syria. We’re all wondering how things will progress but he’s definitely miles better than the last regime and seems to have actually made a shift in ideology

   The current leadership knows they have to play ball if they want to remain in power and they’ve actually been very good about not restricting freedom of worship, women’s rights etc

   Optimistic outlook for Syria finally, and the refugees can return home

4. I’m curious who people think was a better alternative to him? Is he good? No. But let’s look at the competition, there’s Assad who it’s going to be very difficult to be worse than. There’s Al Qaeda and ISIS who somehow manage to be worse. There’s then the Kurds who are an ethnic minority that haven’t played ball well with other groups.

   Other than him and the Kurds, there’s not really a better option for Syrians unfortunately. I don’t think anyone in Syria who isn’t Kurdish wants the Kurds either. That said, I do think the Kurdish group should either be given some control over Kurdistan to ensure the Kurds aren’t discriminated against by the majority, or allow them to succeed with and self-govern.

   Otherwise, for the rest of the country who is even remotely a better option? He’s a terrible guy, there’s no denying that. But that doesn’t mean he’s not their best option. It’s unfortunate that is, but it’s the way it is as far as I’m aware. That said, once he’s stabilised Syria, the west should put pressure on him to stand down so someone who’s actually decent can step up and run the country.
