"Russia and China will not stand by as their ally is destroyed" yeah no, this feels like cope to me
Russia and China are unlikely to provide direct military support, but they obviously aren't going to stand by and provide both political and material support. China wasn't engaged in Ukraine directly either, but certainly wouldn't say they just stood by this whole time either.
A lot of good that did Syria in the end. Or Hezbollah. It's cope.
It's pretty clear that there was no saving Syria, but what's happening there now isn't exactly a big win for the west either. The whole country is a powder keg, and in a state of civil war. The west is now stuck pouring resources into propping up yet another proxy. Also, not sure what you mean regarding Hezbollah. Last I checked they were still around and doing fine.
