Syria was never the place for a Jihadist camp. All of them should have been detained in somewhere like North Dakota, where the only thing more willing to kill escaped prisoners more than the locals themselves would be the environment. Inshallah.

"Security at the camp fell apart in recent weeks after Syria's government routed the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, which had guarded Al-Hol for years..."

Guess who stopped supporting the Syrian Democratic Forces in February during the transition period?

Guess who put no plan in place to guard the prison camp or work with Syria to secure the facility?

Donald Trump: Again releasing thousands of ISIS fighters through sheer stupidity.

Dummkopf Trumpf hosting former ISIS Emir now President of Syria Ahmed al-Sharaa in the Oval Office on 28 Jan 2026.

"I had a great conversation with the highly respected president of Syria, and all of the things having to do with Syria and that area," Trumpf bleated to reporters.

"It's working out very well, so we're very happy about it," the US president chirped."

It seems like just yesterday that pedo 47 surrendered 3 American military bases in Syria to his Russian masters.

"It seems like just yesterday that pedo 47 surrendered 3 American military bases in Syria to his Russian masters."

Last week the US pulled troops out of the An-Tanf Garrison, which had been basically an institution since the war against ISIS began. It was turned over to the Syrian government.

Maybe the new Syrian government is sincere in their effort to contain ISIS, but they don't have the capability to do so. Like I said, Al Hol should have been moved to somewhere like North Dakota. Somewhere where the Islamists would have no choice but to accept that the Islamic State had been defeated. Or at least that they would play no part in it.

Love? No. Think they are way better than the dictator from before? Yes.

The new Syrian government isn't the problem. How stupid are you?

The Syrian Democratic Forces agreed to integrate. But Donald pulled all their support earlier this year. How the fuck do you expect them to keep up security?

Be less stupid.
