Trump’s invitation to Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa to the White House is a windfall for the former Al-Qaeda leader and a victory for the global jihad. Al-Sharaa has now walked away with a deal that likely surprises even him. He has been escorted into the Western fold with recognition as a legitimate dignitary, no longer sanctioned, and has even signed on to the global coalition to defeat ISIS.
Fox asks if he had “regrets” that al-Qaeda carried out the attacks on the World Trade Center…
Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa said in an interview with Fox News that President Trump didn’t bring up his past as an al-Qaeda fighter and commander during their meeting at the White House on Monday.
“I think this is a matter of the past now,” Sharaa said through a translator when asked if Trump raised his al-Qaeda history. “We did not discuss this actively. We talked about the present and the future. We talked about the investment opportunities in the future, so that Syria is no longer looked at as a security threat, but it is now looked at as a geopolitical ally and a place where the United States can have great investments, especially extracting gas.”
