FDD's Foreign Podicy

Syria Agonistes


Listen Later

Once again, there is conflict and carnage in Syria. The media calls it “sectarian strife,” but that phrase may obscure more than it reveals. Islamists have been slaughtering those they deem infidels—with Syria’s Druze and Christian communities hardest hit. The U.N. and the “international community” have been useless as usual. Israel, which has a significant Druze minority of its own, has taken action to defend the Druze of Syria. Not surprisingly, Israel is being accused of “fueling the fires.” The ceasefire brokered last weekend by the Trump administration is shaky, and the crisis is far from resolved. Syria has a long way to go before it becomes a unifying—much less unified—nation. Host Cliff May is joined by FDD experts Hussain Abdul-Hussain and David Daoud for a hard look at what’s happening—and why it matters—on this episode of Foreign Podicy.
