The civil war in Syria is becoming a training ground for future terrorists just as Afghanistan has been in the past. Sunni jihadists and other al-Qaeda types are gathering there. They will eventually defeat Bashar al-Assad's beleaguered Alewite government. What will their next target be? J
"As the Syrian civil war gets ever more violent and destructive, there is
a big beneficiary: al-Qaeda and its franchise in Syria,
Jabhat al-Nusra
— which is now the fastest-growing al-Qaeda front in the world,
attracting fighters from across the Islamic world. Today it's focused on
destroying the Bashar al-Assad regime but its
ultimate goals are much bigger, attacking America and its allies in the heart of the Middle East."
