He tried that last week! Putin sent him on the first plane home. I really think it's ride or die time for Assad, the IRGC said they wont help, the Russians are scuttling back to Tartus, and SDF and rebels are rapidly closing in! Time to fire up I say
Update: I seen a few posts saying he caught a ride to Tehran. No doubt bouying the morale of the troops he ditched in Syria. And it's Hezbollah fighters holding Homs, not his army so much. It's over, GG
Looking at her account, she is a troll posting on islam, disease outbreaks and, of course, the jews. Nothing on arts and dance, which she claims are her main interests.
That sounds like a version of the adage that if you're hiking with someone and the two of you encounter a hungry mountain lion, you don't need to be faster than the cougar – you just need to be faster than the other guy.
The Syrian army has always been known for unparalleled feats of pure shining cowardice when confronting not unarmed civilians, but another army who can shoot back. Example? In the 1st night of the Yom Kippur war, a Syrian tank division was stopped by a single IDF Sherman tank.
Bombing a hospital, blowing up a public bus, executing prisoners, and bombing multiple residential buildings—all in one day. Islamist terrorists can only dream of this, while for ruzzians and Ass’ad, it is a daily routine.
Have a listen to the latest podcast from Conflicted. The analyst is an ex radical islamist who has his finger on the pulse of Middle Eastern politics. It may allay your fears some.
What is okay or not okay with us regarding Syria is immaterial, hon. I know it's difficult for some first worlders to accept the role of NPC. It's not always about YOU. We have no influence and no control over what's happening in Syria.
You mean unlike Hezbollah and the Iranians, who have been propping up al-Assad's regime for years? 🙃
It was the Assad regime that weaponized sectarianism in Syria while gradually discarding the historic secularism of the Ba'ath party. It was the first Arab country to recognize the Iranian regime.
Julani has literally sworn an oath to protect ethnic minorities in Syria and in all of his interviews calls for a Syria led by institutions led by the people, not a dictator. You think he’s a “radical Islamist”? What does that make the Iranians?

The situation in Syria exposes Putin’s weakness.
It's simply a rapid tactical repositioning to a more favourable position.
If it's not military doctrine. Maybe it should be.
But...well, you're the master strategist....Apparently. 🤷
Any plans for the weekend ? 😊
Or it may have been a coincidence.
They strategically relocate.
Islamists don't have those
That you would say that proves your ignorance.
Congratulations.

Please don’t add to the disinformation deluge. It’s counterproductive
