Why did she ask if the mic was working ? Is she a sound technician or something ? wtf.

You kick out a brutal leader what do you get ? A new brutal leader

How does anyone actually believe anything this network reports?...

I' so happy for your people. I can't as an American even understand how you must have felt all these years. You all go forth now, and be your best you in what ever you choose to do in your life.❤

0:29 'Is this working?' Completely atypical reaction from 'a member of the public' being interviewed on the street by a major TV network. However very typical of a (paid) professional, with carefully written script.

This is so exciting news for the world ! Especially Syrians of course. I wish them prosperity and peace. ❤ From the USA, congratulations and hope your new leadership can guide you into much deserved freedom.

Every thing is good? Why is Israel bombing the free country

YOU REALIZE THESE ARE ACTORS RIGHT? Make up, english speaking. Hair all done. 😂

The new would-be leader and liberator of Syria says he's a changed man. I hope for Syria's sake that he is changed. Time will tell. Hard to imagine he'd be worse than Assad who gloried in human misery.

I'm not a fan of the Assad regime, but toppling a regime by force isn't a good sign. In this power vaccum, things could become worse like we see in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Interesting.They find in english speaking with a good english accent

[robchop]

What a coincidence to meet a woman with an american accent ..

Let's hope that they elect and preserve a responsible government that respects freedom of religion, of association, of speech. If the Jihadists take full control, well, it will be some of the same old, same old.

Best wishes for your recovery and peace. ❤❤❤

Aside from this stage interview that had a woman with and one without a hijab 🧕, we have never seen not even 1 footage of women without hijab unless their kids….! TikTok… let’s see how long it will take before this take a different turn !!!

From the bottom of my heart, I'm happy for any group of people who're freed from oppression. Unfortunately, having lived in that part of the world until my 20's, for some reason the new regime turns out to be no better, and sometimes even worse than the former. I hope I'm wrong about Syria.

[loisleonard]

She is beautiful and well-spoken. So happy for them😊

[JolynBowler]

Amazing. thank you for sharing the joy of the Syrian people.💙🌻💙

Look at how beautiful just any given random Syrian woman is. They're mostly like that.
