Radical Freedom
The Refugee Crisis
So to re-cap: 1) US (and allies) unleashes total hell on Syria to overthrow Assad, with many/most fighters being foreign jihadists; 2) Assad fights back against foreign-backed insurgency; 3) resulting civil war produces circumstances not unlike those in Libya after “liberation” yet somehow Assad manages to hold off advance of al-Qaeda and ISIS; 4) with Syria back to near stone-age levels, anyone who can leave is trying to leave.
