I think that Al-Jolani/Al Sharaa's shelf life is very limited. He was put in place to serve Israel's and the US's purpose and that purpose being achieved, they now have no use for him.
We've seen this happen so many times before. I remember when the UK media extolled the good offices of a Libyan Colonel called Muammar Qadaffi, then there was one Idi Amin who was going to bring Uganda back to its senses, there was Saddam Hussein who saved Iraq from Communism, strongman Manuel Noriega was going to look after US interests in Panama and, of course, and we all remember the people that Ronald Reagan called "freedom fighters" in Afghanistan - including one Osama Bin Laden. In the end, none of that mattered. Once they had served their purpose, they were got rid of.
This time around, I think that there may have been a massive miscalculation, though. The crowds that welcomed the so-called "rebels" into Damascus just over a week ago are a wee bit more sophisticated than they're given credit for. They've had secular government, with full freedom of religion (or from religion) for more than half a century now. While no one in their right mind would defend the Assads with their oppression and corruption, I doubt if these hand choppers and beheaders will be welcome for very long either - especially as a pretty big proportion of them aren't even Arabs, let alone Syrian. There is a lot to play out here and I'd hesitate to make any firm predictions but the game is far from over.
