When Iran is liberated, I will be on the first flight there. Meanwhile, it's been one year since Bashar Assad fled Syria, and Syrians are still in Germany celebrating from a distance. Why aren't you returning home? Your side has literally won.

There are so many detractors when it comes to Syria, so quick to write off exactly what it is that Syrians accomplished by bringing down their dictator at a time when most of the world had written them off. Syrians know that this “next phase” will be messy and ugly and quite possibly violent. No one who I have spoken to thinks that this next phase is going to be easy, nor that the core cries that launched the revolution back in 2011, those calls for freedom and democracy, are guaranteed. But do not dismiss what Syrians have learned over the last 13 years and more. And do not dismiss what Syrians have lost to get to this point. I remember as far back as I think it was 2012 or 2013, when we first saw HTS’s predecessor and other more conservative/Islamist groups emerging hearing Syrians say “we know that we will probably need a revolution after the revolution”. A lot has changed since then. HTS itself has morphed and changed. Or at least it appears to have. And yes it could just be lip service, but if Syrians are willing to give this process and HTS a chance to do what it claims it’s going to do – who is anyone to take that agency away from them? There are plans for the day after – plans that have been worked on for the last years and years, that need to be modified since no one thought Assad would disappear just like that. But Syrians inside and outside of the country who still held hope that the day would come did not stop working towards it, towards the Syria they want to live in. And they will keep fighting for that.
