The Wolf In Sheep's Clothing: How Al-Joulani Turned From Perpetrator Of A Massacre Into Being Applauded By The West As Peace-Maker

Abu Mohammad Al-Joulani (Ahmed Al-Sharaa), who declared himself the president of the transitional government in Syria, is playing a psychopathic game that the West does not understand.
Mohammad Al-Joulani (Ahmed Al-Sharaa)
STEP 1: Al-Joulani sends Bedouin Sunni militias (operating under his command) to massacre hundreds of Druze in Sweida. They murder children, women and elderly in their homes.
STEP 2: Al-Joulani declares to the media: "There's violence between groups! I'm sending the army to restore peace!"
STEP 3: Instead of stopping the perpetrators (whom he sent), he sends his army to suppress the Druze – the VICTIMS!
STEP 4 – Ultimate cynicism: After an "agreement" mediated by the U.S. and Turkey, Al-Joulani gives a speech BLAMING the Druze victims and PRAISING the militias, who invaded their homes, murdered, slaughtered, raped and burned.
In the same speech, in which the West sees a "moderate leader," he is actually sanctifying the massacre and crowning the killers as heroes.
On July 16, 2025, the Syrian Observatory of Human Rights (SOHR) published on its Facebook page a video showing a Syrian soldier wearing an ISIS patch on his body armor. In the video, the soldier said that the Ansar Al‑Tawhid Brigades of the Syrian 82nd Division were preparing to enter the Druze city of Sweida in order to "purify it" from what he called the "filth" of Druze leader Hikmat Al‑Hijri and his followers.

Medical Catastrophe
It is worth noting that the siege has caused a complete collapse of Sweida's hospitals. Critical shortages of life-saving medications, surgical equipment, and basic medical supplies. Patients are dying from treatable conditions. Diabetics without insulin. Cancer patients without chemotherapy. Wounded victims bleeding without proper care.
Urgent Appeal To Medical and Humanitarian Organizations:
Druze are traditionally called "Bani Ma'roof [Sons of Kindness]" – because of their religious tradition to help anyone in need, regardless of religion, race, or nationality. The very people who made helping others their core religious value are now being slaughtered and dying from medical neglect with no help at all.
As a doctor, I appeal to:
-The World Health Organization (WHO), the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders: emergency medical intervention is needed NOW.
- International hospitals: mobile medical units are urgently needed.
- Pharmaceutical companies: emergency medication supplies are needed.
- United Nations: humanitarian corridors must immediately be opened.
J'Accuse...!
Al-Joulani executed the massacre, punished the victims, created medical catastrophe, and received international blessing for "stopping violence" that he created himself.
This is exactly what Al-Joulani does. And the West applauds him for bringing "peace" and calls him a "responsible leader."
WAKE UP WORLD! You're being played by a master manipulator!
