Syrian Civil War and The future of Syria after liberation

[FuturePAF]

i think this is should be required viewing for anyone who has the slightest interest in this conflict.

Incidentally, the video substantiates what I said at the outset - a huge disadvantage for Assad’s forces was their comms were consistently jammed. Of course there were others but I think this was one of the decisive factors.

Very important for the PA to learn from the officer’s insights. Yes, secure and uninterrupted comms are a must in modern war, especially where field commanders aren’t given enough leeway. In politically led wars, comms and logistics are centers of gravity as Von Clausewitz would state.

Yaar main idher logon ko samjha ra hoon just how dangerous this Syria development is for us. Our people in a daze and can't see it.

What happened in Syria could happen to any muslim country.

If any Muslim country treats her citizen like Bashar did then it deserve to be destroyed.

And yaar don't be an expert in Syria when you are not even Syrian or even an Arab. Syrians are happy but you sitting in Kasur is burning and know better for them. Lol

Not only that.

Iran, ‘tHe SaViOr oF tHe MuSlImS’ opened her airspace in 2003 for the US to bomb Iraq.

They are not interested in muslims, only in Shia-reign. They want dancing towelheads everywhere smashing theirselves with chains at Karbala-day (not to mention, Iranians are the descendants of Muawiya, so actually the Shia’s killed Hussain).

Just Divide and conquer , operation

If you are dealing with 50 tribes

• Give apples to 49 tribes and beat down 1
• Repeat process once 49 tribes are left
• Give bag of flour to 48 tribes and beat down 1
• Repeat process once 47 tribes are left

Traditional Approach
This approach was very $$ lucrative for Top nations in past and model which is still used widely

Sometimes it is advantages to just have a mercenary group be head of nation , because they will give $$$ Tribute or Big construction contracts and they will also open economy to franchise fee

• You don't have to deal with taking care of people / population who are under you
• You don't have to worry about job creation or other stuff
• You don't have to worry about health care creation it is handled by Mercenary Head, the Mercenary head just tells the people under it's control , I have nothing to offer , just be happy in your home

Unconventional Approach (Israel)

• Genocide
• This approach is less preferred because their is risk of big retaliation from other nations

HTS Mercenaries may have been promised other perks which we may not know, perhaps a country in their original homelands. Many times HTS Mercenaries may have unfinished business in their own home countries

It's not china fault that u guys are constantly waging wars. Plus BRICS is an economic forum not a military alliance! Stop putting that into the conversation. BRICS or not china production capacity will continue to expand. We will do business with anyone regardless of the color of your skin. I'm sure there are some religious in this forum. They believe sunni have the mandate to rule over other sects lol u can't help that shit. It's beyond anyone intellectual maturity. It's called stupidity.

You should actually read the official communications on what BRICS is intended to be, it's more than economic interactions, amongst other things it's the proposal of other to the status quo, at the detriment of the dollar dominance, hence they unveiled an actual currency and note.


What smaller nation is going to even remotely consider going against the USA if they have no guarantor. This should be a no brainer, why so touchy on this

So guess what, it will just be a talking shop that once had promise

And the more nations that are in rubble make the bri a flop too

I am not trying to be anti china here btw, but I don't see how super power strategy can ever be so benign

Russian-Chinese , financial model is , the biggest challenge to World Order group since WW2

Syria battle field is just one move of this chess board

Turks may feel less threatened , if PKK is neutralized and HTS may be more friendlier towards them

• They view the conflict , so the unwelcomed elements don't have stable base to attack them from South

Turkey helping HTS elements perhaps , more light is needed on why they supported this , because it is very hard to find Turkish point of view as Google search engine is heavily diluting any view point accept , certain media outlets

The Fall of Syria may be a eye opener to Egyptian Regime who was operating very similar to Syrian authority (Minus US aid money of course)


Egypt may soon find

• the $Billions of Dollar free money may STOP now since Syria is neutralized , and Israel no longer need to pay this money thru USA since they no longer face a two front war
• The Americans might stop financing Egyptian Army in order to reduce their power , near future

Turkey may soon find

• HTS move did it help their cause or not
• F35 is still not going to Turkey that is certain

Turkey-Egypt :
Both do not see Israel's Genocide as ideal case near their nation
It threat to their border integrity and economy

France tells Israel to to withdraw forces from Syria buffer zone - AFP​

BBC

France says Israel needs to remove its military presence from the Golan Heights.

Over the past few days, we've been reporting how Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructed his troops to protect the country’s border with Syria by stationing themselves in a buffer zone in the area.

"Any military deployment in the separation zone between Israel and Syria is a violation of the disengagement agreement of 1974," a French foreign ministry spokesman says in a statement today.

Could IS or Al-Qaeda resurge in Syria?​

Frank Gardner
BBC Security correspondent

There are essentially three ways IS could pose a threat in the new Syria:

1. A prison breakout: If the Syrian Kurds who guard the prisons and camps holding IS captives come under so much military pressure from Turkey and its allied militia there is a risk then the Kurds could be forced to abandon them. IS has long vowed to free its captives and rebuild its presence in the region
2. Infiltration of HTS: The leadership of the main victorious rebel group, HTS, formally split from Al-Qaeda (AQ) in 2016. But AQ have wasted no time in calling on the Islamist rebels to now turn their guns on non-Muslims. The new government will need to be wary of infiltration by either IS or AQ.
3. General confusion: Syria - or at least much of it - has spent the last 54 years in the grip of a brutally repressive authoritarian regime. Recent examples in the Arab world have tended to point to chaos following the removal of such regimes. IS operatives hide out mainly in the thinly governed or ungoverned space of the Syrian desert. Containing them will add to the challenges facing the new government in Damascus.

America is taking no chances here. To prevent and discourage Islamic State (IS) from trying to take advantage of the change of regime in Syria the US Air Force has conducted dozens of strikes on their positions in central Syria.

It depends on who writes the history books. I believe that Muslims will write them and it will be recorded how the Judeo-Christian West went total retard in the service of Satan and had to be put down like rabid dogs with a world war.

Again with the term "Judeo-Christian". Are you nuts? Please remember to include "Sunni Islamic East" as well then in those books and put Saudi Arabia,Qatar and Turkey at the forefront.

Videos confirm rebel presence at Deir al-Zour, north-east Syria​

By Paul Brown

BBC Verify has analysed two videos from Deir al-Zour showing rebel fighters taking control of key sites in the city following the reported withdrawal of Kurdish-led SDF forces from the city.

The city, in Syria's north-east, has been somewhat separated from the rapid rebel advance from Idlib to Damascus. Last week, Reuters quoted security sources saying that the Kurdish-led SDF had taken control of Deir al-Zour city following the withdrawal of regime forces.

Now control appears to have shifted again – this time to the rebels.

In one clip released late yesterday, rebel forces are seen at the government office in the centre of the city. Here, the location was confirmed thanks to the building's distinctive architecture which is visible on publicly available imagery.

Another clip, published overnight by rebel-affiliated media shows a drive through the grounds of the Deir al-Zour airport. The footage is dark and grainy, but there is sufficient detail to confirm the location, by matching visible, but features to satellite imagery.

These videos confirm rebel presence at either end of the city, 10km (6.2 miles) apart.

The fallout for Russia and Iran​

Barbara Plett Usher
Reporting from Damascus

Russia has a naval base and an air base in Syria and the Kremlin has said Moscow is in contact with the new leadership to discuss their fate.

The spokesman has criticized Israel for bombing Syrian military installations and setting up a buffer zone along the Golan Heights in the south of the country, saying these actions risked destabilising Syria.

Bashar al-Assad’s other main ally, Iran, accuses Israel and the US of plotting his downfall, (along with an unnamed neighbouring state, an apparent reference to Turkey).

But the Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, insists Iran will not be weakened by Assad’s fall from power.

Another country in the region, Qatar, announced that it planned to reopen its embassy in Damascus.

While in the capital, the new interim prime minister says he wants to bring millions of Syrian refugees back home, protect civilians and provide basic services. But that would be difficult, he says, because the country doesn’t have foreign currency.
