What is unfolding in Aleppo today is neither accidental nor detached from Syria’s long war.
Despite repeated talk of a so–called “new phase” and promises of stability, the city has once again become a focal point of violence, exposing the fragility of such claims.
Gideon Sa’ar’s warning about escalating unrest in Aleppo—framed as concern over broken Syrian commitments—reveals less about peace and more about political positioning.
The Israeli enemy has treated the events in Aleppo much as it previously treated unrest in Suwayda: as an opportunity.
Instability is not merely observed; it is invested in.
Through diplomatic rhetoric centered on minority protection and humanitarian alarmism, Tel Aviv seeks to keep Syria fragmented, weak, and permanently vulnerable to internal fractures.
Sa’ar’s call for the West to “repay its moral debt” to the Kurds fits squarely within this logic—turning a just cause into a geopolitical instrument.
At the same time, Turkey advances a parallel but intersecting project.
Ankara openly considers Aleppo and northern Syria an extension of its national security sphere.
The Turkish defense minister’s declaration of readiness to support al-Jolani’s forces confirms that Turkey views control over the north not as temporary leverage, but as a strategic necessity.
Military backing, administrative influence, and demographic reshaping are all tools in this long-term approach.
The convergence of these agendas keeps the war alive.
What began in 2011 has not ended; it has merely shifted form.
Ethnic and sectarian sorting, fueled by external powers, serves the Israeli enemy’s expansionist vision—one that thrives on division, separatism, and the erosion of central authority.
In this context, even claims about historical or cultural “heritage” in northern Syria function as political narratives rather than genuine history.
Aleppo thus stands at the intersection of two projects, both feeding a conflict designed to prevent Syria from ever becoming whole again.
