Ex-Al Qaeda warlord Jolani has "risen" to president by seizing Damascus by force, suspending the constitution, dissolving parliament, and having himself declared the president for an indefinite term. The collective West is fine with this because he's laid down before Israel. The calls from Washington and London for democracy and human rights were an obvious farce. And I suspect Jolani cut a deal to give up the Golan in exchange for US support.
