Do you see a substantive difference between Ahrar al-Sham and Nusra?

Thanks for doing this, btw. It's important to put a face on people that too easily just become statistics.

If Bashar does fall, what do you see happening in Syria? Especially between Nusra, whatever's left of Jaish al-Islam, and FSA.

Yeah that's my sense of it from the outside. Labib Al-Nahas knows how to talk to Washington and the UK (especially with those op-eds last summer in WaPo and the Telegraph). But it's all for show.

To me it seems like Ahrar al-Sham is just Nusra with better PR. And any differences they have are more over internal competition, rather than ideology or tactics.

I hope you can go back to Aleppo and they'll be gone. I would love to visit Aleppo some day when this is all over.
