Connecting the Syrian-Iraqi dots together: Putin-Jewlani love affair cements as Orange Bolshevism rails against Maliki
Make no mistake: the Zionist-funded iniquitous cancer that destroyed Syria in Dec. 2024 is currently at work preparing to magnify into Iraq.
1/2: Russo-AQS update overview
Abu Mohammed al-Jewlani, the imperial-approved ringleader of Al-Qaeda in Syria (AQS) or what is commonly designated “Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham” a.k.a. “HTS,” has today (yes, literally today, as of typing on Wednesday, Jan. 28, 2026) met yet another time vis-a-vis with Vladimir Putin in Moscow. Per Reuters (I’m copy-paste dumping the important details so you can read for yourself):1
In televised opening remarks, Putin told Sharaa: ‘I want to congratulate you on the fact that the process of restoring the territorial integrity of Syria is gaining momentum.’
Sharaa, on his second visit to Russia since ousting Assad in 2024, thanked Putin for help in stabilising the situation in Syria and the wider region.

SYRIAN SOURCE SAYS REDEFINING STATUS OF BASES IS KEY ISSUE
Russia’s presence in Qamishli had long irked Syrian authorities, who viewed it as a lever Moscow could use against Damascus and as a way to bolster the Kurds’ autonomous project by conferring a degree of legitimacy — a relationship that dates back to Russia’s cooperation with Kurdish forces while supporting Assad against rebel advances.
The Syrian source said a key item on the agenda was redefining the status of Russia’s military presence at Tartous and Hmeimim, which Moscow is seeking to extend under a new framework in the post-Assad period.
The source said Sharaa also intended to discuss the risk of a strike on Iran, with Damascus keen to contain any spillover from a potential U.S. or Israeli attack, particularly given Iran’s past use of Syrian airspace to target Israel.
Sharaa was also seeking greater Russian engagement in future security arrangements in southern Syria, including a military police presence in Quneitra, in the Golan Heights, to serve as a buffer against Israeli incursions, the source said.
A second Syrian source said Putin’s remarks appeared to offer a strong endorsement of Sharaa’s military campaign to regain control of territory.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters earlier that the two leaders would discuss ‘all issues related to the presence of our troops in Syria’, as well as economic cooperation and the wider regional situation.
Peskov declined to comment when asked about the possibility that Russia might agree to extradite Assad, who fled to Moscow after his overthrow.
His fall, after a civil war lasting more than a decade in which Russia had provided him with extensive military support, represented a serious setback for Moscow.
The second Syrian source said Sharaa was also seeking assurances that Russia would not allow senior Assad loyalists and former army officers who fled to Moscow to use their sanctuary to finance or organise insurgent attacks against the state, particularly in Syria’s coastal areas.
Additionally, per The New York Times:2
Mr. Putin appeared alongside Mr. al-Sharaa at the Kremlin ahead of their meeting and said that Russian sports, medicine and construction sector officials were engaging with Syrian counterparts as the two governments increased their economic ties.
‘I know that much will need to be restored in Syria, and our economic operators, including those in the construction sector, are ready for this joint work,’ Mr. Putin said.
Mr. al-Sharaa, despite fighting the Russian-backed forces of Mr. al-Assad for years, praised the development of renewed ties with Russia and thanked Mr. Putin ahead of the meeting. He said his government had ‘overcome the sanctions phase’ of the Assad years and was working to unify Syria in the wake of the 13-year civil war.
…
‘Russia, of course, plays a major role in Syria, in stabilizing the situation, not only in Syria but also in the region. In fact, our region is in dire need of stabilization,’ Mr. al-Sharaa told Mr. Putin. ‘Therefore, thank you very much, Mr. President, for your efforts on this matter.’
Earlier in the day, the Kremlin spokesman, Dmitri S. Peskov, declined to comment on whether the extradition of Mr. al-Assad back to Syria would be discussed.
At stake for the Kremlin is the fate of Russia’s military footprint in Syria, which has included the Hmeimim Air Base and a naval base at Tartus, on the Mediterranean, as well as the air base at Qamishli, in northeastern Syria’s Kurdish region, near the Turkish border.
This week, reports surfaced that Russia was removing its forces from Qamishli, after clashes between Syrian government forces and a Kurdish-led militia broke out in the area. The Syrian government under Mr. al-Sharaa is establishing control over the Kurdish region from the Syrian Democratic Forces, a group of predominantly Kurdish fighters that the United States backed to wage war against the Islamic State but that Washington has since largely abandoned.
The United States has said that Mr. al-Sharaa’s government can now handle the threat posed by any resurgence of the Islamic State.
That backing from the United States was widely seen as the latest diplomatic victory for Mr. al-Sharaa, who has sought to rebuild Syria’s international legitimacy after years of political isolation under the Assad government. He has built a rapport with President Trump, courted Gulf countries for investment and engaged in direct talks with Israel, a longtime enemy of Syria.
Mr. Putin congratulated Mr. al-Sharaa on his government’s success in consolidating its control over the Kurdish region.
‘We have closely followed your efforts to restore Syria’s territorial integrity,’ Mr. Putin said. “And I want to congratulate you on this process gaining momentum.”
Mr. Putin told the Syrian leader that Russia had always pushed for the restoration of Syria’s territorial integrity and supported ‘all your efforts in this direction.’
(there’s also Associated Press’ coverage of the matter here)
Now, right before Jewlani traveled to Moscow for talks with Putin, guess who he held a phone call with the day prior?34
That’s right! Both the United States and Russia are de facto jointly propping up the same AQS regime in Syria practically in simultaneous conjunction, both serving to help Jewlani’s henchmen take over northeastern Syria to the horrendously consequential detriment of the Kurds. As AQS advances into Rojava with Anglo-Zionist approval, ever-waning SDF security—doomed to near-future collapse—will fail to contain the cauldron of ISIS wannabe-headch*pper detainees, whose hides are currently being transferred to Iraq. Let’s take a look at simultaneous developments transpiring in Syria’s eastern Mesopotamian neighbor, shall we not?
2/2: USAian-Iraqi prospects set to sour
So far, I already compiled a series of posts covering this ongoing Jan. 2026 analysis of intertwined Syrian-Iraqi events—I recommend reading these if you haven’t already:
Now, very unfortunately, it looks like my warnings are being validated in front of all our very eyes—behold the recent news for yourself:56
Also, this from a few days prior:7
Rather than attempt to defuse Mango Caesar’s threats of severing the U.S.-Iraq “security alliance,” Maliki is speaking lies at one table with Trump as he dialectically reinforces the same talking point and goal a.k.a. cutting off U.S. support for Iraq:89
You must now understand the pure cynical hypocrisy from both ends here and how most people completely miss the mark: on one hand, Trump is technically correct to highlight the baseline fact that Maliki’s governance was sectarian and wholly incompetent, and on the other hand, Maliki is technically correct when he castigates U.S. imperial meddling in Iraq’s governmental affairs.
However, the real big picture everyone apparently is missing out on is that both Trump and Maliki are two heads of the same global deep state intelligence hydra, and in this instance, both Trump and Maliki are—from “opposite” sides of the fence—serving to accomplish the same short-term end result of Iraq becoming completely detached from U.S. military oversight so that the Iraqi government and military will be left utterly isolated.
Mind you, I’m not saying this to in any way whatsoever defend or condone the brutal U.S. occupation of Iraq—my analysis here is simply for the sake of sober realism. The brutal fact of the matter is that the CPA/Iranian-restructured “Iraqi government” under the hands of the Badr Organization was all along set up to be incompetent and corrupt on its own and would never functionally govern autonomously, always reliant on the U.S. and Iran to stabilize its existence. Therefore, for the U.S. to withdraw all military-intelligence support from Iraq is not some grand “victory” for Iraqi national self-determination as many in the “Death To America” camp would like to take a victory lap around and reductionistically assume, but rather is a demonstration of how the U.S. can play from both sides of the occupational coin to the detriment of everyday Iraqis either way, wherein now Mango Caesar’s solidfying choice to withdraw U.S. support for Iraq ultimately means Iraqis are fed to the wolves.
The entire point here is that Trump and Maliki are jointly serving the same end agenda of ensuring the U.S. military will withdraw from Iraq just in time for an ISIS resurgence—exported from northeastern Syria, whose Rojava holdouts are destroyed by the AQS insurgency greenlit by the U.S., Russia, and nazijewish Fourth Reich, as ISIS detainees are transferred to Iraq—to emerge in Iraq so that a Maliki government will completely fall apart and collapse in the face of an ISIS explosion that swarms and utterly overtakes Iraq to the complete annihilation of all Shi’ite anti-Zionist resistance militias in that country.
If you have any friends residing in Iraq, please warn them of this upcoming calamity and urge them and their friends/family to flee the country ASAP for the sake of their lives who will only be in jeopardy if they are trapped in the country by the time an ISIS full-blown catastrophe emerges.
