Much though I want to view this as good news I keep finding myself steelmanning that it's actually bad news
* destabilising a region already in flames
* replacing a secular evil government by.. jihadists in a loose coalition. WCGW?
* Russia used port and airfields to maintain a presence in the Med and for nefarious purposes in Africa. What do they do now, to replace them because I doubt "nothing" is the answer.
* does Iran feel a need to do "stupid things" now to prop up regional Shia politics?
* could this be bad for Ukraine?
* how will Turkey negotiate with this facing the pkk and Kurdish nationalism?
