🇸🇾🇸🇾🇸🇾🇱🇧🇱🇧 - The combination of the Israeli war on Lebanon and the HTS takeover of Syria is the beginning of the end for traditional Palestinian nationalist militant groups outside of Syria. These groups were all backed by the Assad regime and have lost all their power after the HTS takeover, leaving them powerless in face of the Lebanese army.
Independent Syrian jihadists and even the HTS administration do not possess the same power the Assad regime had over Lebanon to control these Syrian-backed Palestinian groups in the refugee camps.
However, what will happen to Hezbollah-backed Al Qassam and Saraya al Quds? What about the Palestinian jihadi factions like Fatah al-Islam? What about Lebanese and Syrian Sunni jihadi factions? Will Joseph Aoun become president, strengthening the military in the face of Hezbollah and all other factions? Time will tell.
It's important to note that the Lebanese Islamic Group (Muslim Brotherhood) has backed both Hezbollah in its war against Israel as well as the Syrian rebels against the Assad regime. HTS and Lebanese Sunni prime minister Mikati (an anti-Christian force, infamously spreading the lie that Christians are 19% of the country) joining forces is also extremely dangerous for Christians. We are dealing with wild cards.

What distinguishes the app from competitors is its use of what's known as channels: Public or private feeds of photos and videos that can be set up by one person or an organization. The channels have become popular with on-the-ground journalists, aid workers and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who broadcasts on a Telegram channel. The channels can be followed by an unlimited number of people. Unlike Facebook, Twitter and other popular social networks, there is no advertising on Telegram and the flow of information is not driven by an algorithm. NEWS In addition, Telegram's architecture limits the ability to slow the spread of false information: the lack of a central public feed, and the fact that comments are easily disabled in channels, reduce the space for public pushback. In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government. Telegram was founded in 2013 by two Russian brothers, Nikolai and Pavel Durov.
