Assad is in Moscow, a significant blow to Putin’s prestige. The fall of the dictator, who was propped up by Russian forces, once again highlights that the myth of the invincible Russian bear is nothing more than a lie.

Today, another dictator's reign has fallen. Everyone living under a dictatorship should remember what Lord Varys said in Game of Thrones:

"Power resides where men believe it resides. It's a trick. A shadow on the wall."

Once we understand this, we can drive out every monster.
