Last I checked, Syria was still a sovereign country. Atleast, Bassar Assad is dealing with IS and Al Queda by attacking them. Turkey coddles them and provides them arms. The US has a failed foreign policy by looking the other way to Turkey supporting IS and Al Queda even during President Donald Trump's term. I encouraged him to release the IS prisoners to Syria and Bassar Assad so that, they could be given justice. Instead, they were locked up and repatriated into the thousands, including, in the US to be tried here? For a few bullets, Bassar Assad would have dealt with the IS and Al Queda terrorists, they way they should be dealt with. Also, they committed crimes against Syria and its people. They should have been dealt with under Sharia Law and not repatriated back to their countries.
