Eh I can't entirely fault Japan for the attacks. I think they were actually going to try and bring their war in China to a close and consolidate their holdings, but they saw Germany's lightning fast advances through Europe and decided that the colonies in Asia were ripe for the taking. They easily took French Indochina from the Vichy regime
Britain convinced the Dutch government in Indonesia and the United States to embargo the Japs though, and the nips got most of thier oil from the US. So they did a gamble, hoping Hitler would succeed in Europe and lost, the goal was to take the extremely resource rich Indonesian archipelago which would solve their oil needs, and through a quick decisive strike cripple the US Navy and knock them out of the war early
I can't fault them for it. It was strategically reasonable, but it was still a dice roll and one they lost. Badly.

>The commander of Israel's Home Front issued a stark warning on Monday that the Middle East is headed for a full-scale, multi-front war that would see the use of weapons of mass destruction.
If he cared about his family then he would send them to Russia to be under their protection. Those kids and his wife are just going to end up dead if they stay there. It way too dangerous.
I doubt Putin would mind having them stay in Russia for the next couple years.
It will give the kids some normal living for a period.
Hudson Edwards
have you noticed Israel has been openly attacking Damascus with increased frequency? a couple months ago, for the first time, they admitted it too. things are escalating
war soon
Ryan Long
>you can't see the forest for the trees? You seem to be looking for mushrooms or something though. I get it, it's "WW3 anytime now" attitude, covered with a lot of sources and predictions but it doesn't bring said war even one step closer from happening.

>the higher ups are shocked somehow this market garden esque fuckery failed and did not become the decisive battle they wanted it to be >presumably all of these men fell asleep at the Vietnam War lesson
Conventional tactics in an urban insurgency. Mattis pushed his way into a booby trap and was the only commander to recognize and actively counter the enemy at every step.

Imperial Japan was just as hungry and aggressive for power as Germany was. Which helped them quickly snatch up all those islands around them and even slaughter millions of Chinese.
Japan wasn't fucking around. But they were still allied with Nazi Germany and their attack on the US only made the situation worse for Hitler in Europe.
> I can't blame them for it. They rolled the dice and they lost hard.
I wouldn't necessarily say I "blame" them. I just think they were destined to fail and Germany made the mistake of allying with a nation that probably made the biggest mistake in the anti-US world. They basically created the superpower we are today. So I guess we can kind of thank Japan.
eh, it's just a matter of time. everybody knows that. israel and their arab neighbors went to war 4 times in the first 25 years. since '73 no outright war. next one will be the last one.

>Turn now from these wide questions of good to a certain class of questions of fact, questions concerning personal relations, states of mind between one man and another. Do you like me or not?--for example. Whether you do or not depends, in countless instances, on whether I meet you half-way, am willing to assume that you must like me, and show you trust and expectation. The previous faith on my part in your liking's existence is in such cases what makes your liking come. But if I stand aloof, and refuse to budge an inch until I have objective evidence, until you shall have done something apt, as the absolutists say, ad extorquendum assensum meum, ten to one your liking never comcs. How many women's hearts are vanquished by the mere sanguine insistence of some man that they must love him! He will not consent to the hypothesis tbat they cannot. The desire for a certain kind of truth here brings about that special truth's existence; and so it is in innumerable cases of other sorts. Who gains promotions, boons, appointments, but the man in whose life they are seen to play the part of live hypotheses, who discounts them, sacrifices other things for their sake before they have come, and takes risks for them in advance ? His faith acts on the powers above him as a claim, and creates its own verification.

Act for the best, hope for the best, and take what comes. . . . If death ends all, we cannot meet death better."
Are you saying he denied previous offers from Russia for his family to go be under their protection? I mean I can see why he wants to be with his family, but this conflict is just going to get worse and worse. I don't see this war ending within the next year or even two years. It is such a gigantic cluster fuck.
If anything he would do it to give his kids a safe place to live, that isn't currently the most dangerous place on the planet.
Like keeping his kids there is just fucking selfish. What if some FSA or ISIS launches a fucking missile at his residence or some shit?
I honestly doubt Putin would care at all of Assads family went to Russia for a while. Infact Putin would probably prefer it to keep his kids safe.

Also, related to my SAA stronghold question. What is the ISIS stronghold/capital?
Is there a region or area that they are extremely highly populated. Like how does ISIS even work? Is it just a bunch of platoons of Jihadists that call themselves ISIS and just use the current conquered land as their main capital?
Is there no ISIS stronghold?
Austin Sullivan
That's some nice vintage!
Jason Barnes
Raqqa is the ISIS "capital"
it has a reasonable population still.
with the loss of al-Bab and most of Mosul, ISIS hardly controls any significant cities anymore.

>Nothing will happen, ever. Nukes ruined all the fun.
Nukes are why there hasn't been a war since '73
>Defense Minister Moshe Dayan, obviously not at his best at a press briefing, was, according to Time magazine, rattled enough to later tell the prime minister that “this is the end of the third temple,” referring to an impending collapse of the state of Israel. “Temple” was also the code word for nuclear weapons. Prime Minister Golda Meir and her “kitchen cabinet” made the decision on the night of 8 October. The Israelis assembled 13 twenty-kiloton atomic bombs. The number and in fact the entire story was later leaked by the Israelis as a great psychological warfare tool. Although most probably plutonium devices, one source reports they were enriched uranium bombs. The Jericho missiles at Hirbat Zachariah and the nuclear strike F-4s at Tel Nof were armed and prepared for action against Syrian and Egyptian targets. They also targeted Damascus with nuclear capable long-range artillery although it is not certain they had nuclear artillery shells.[62]
but that deterrence doesn't last forever. how do you deter a suicide bomber, for example? and the more time goes on, the more nations get nukes. Iran probably has them now. Russia has nuclear capable Iskander missile systems in Syria, etc. it seems to be only a matter of time before the dam breaks
war is in human nature; it recurs throughout history. and nukes are relatively ancient technology. there's a ton of advanced weaponry out there. in which case the task for peace is to prevent another war forever and ever and ever again. what are the odds of that?

White Helmets is about a pro-FSA 'humantarian' organization that runs to the rubble after airstrikes and films it in a way they can use it as propaganda against the Assad regime.
Palestinians do the exact same thing to Israel. Typical tactic used by weak, minorities in the ME to drum up sympathy from liberals.

No. It's just fucking stupid and arrogant. He is risking his children's lives to make a fucking political statement? What the fuck?
Nigger, just because you selfishly want to keep your kids in a war zone does not mean your point is magically more or less valid. That's just fucking stupid.

Why are there civilians living in the ISIS stronghold? Maybe they support ISIS and deserve to die.
Parker Thompson
about Al Bab: ISIS suddenly decided to pull back despite holding 70% of the city (some say they have a deal with Turkey, unproven). Some minor skirmishes between ES and SAA. Tigers linked up to the SDF. Turkey vows to attack Manbij, the US vows to protect Manbij.

To be fair "conflict" doesn't have to mean "descent into a parade of mass murder and also proxy wars for richer nations". Perhaps when TRUE COMMUNISM is achieved, all warfare will be shitposting online.
People generally aren't as goonishly nationalistic as they appear to be online.

No. This is an American who wants to stop hearing about Syria.

maybe it's not even being directed by Putin; maybe it's unofficial. I doubt it, but in any case, if DC gets nuked and "ISIS" is to blame, and we know Russia has been selling nukes to ISIS, you don't think we will retaliate?

You know what. It actually makes sense if Russia and the US don't really care if ISIS is gone. Because both countries can use ISIS as an excuse to be military active all over the ME.
This is basically a cold war between Russia and the US through proxy wars, but both nations are using ISIS to further their own agenda.
Jesus Christ. This is what the fucking black pill must feel like.
When you finally wake up and realize that the leaders of Russia and rhe leaders of the United States don't give a fucking shit about any of us.
When you realize where basically pawn chips in a much larger boardgame.

>ISIS probably has nukes now No lad, just no. You've probably seen all clashes of swords (اشتباكات السيوف) dunno if you read Arabic, all other IS videos, they're simply terrorists in your retarded country meaning, full terrorist mode. If they had nukes they would've used them the next second they can launch it. >the cost of free speech (having to endure idiots) is worth the benefit. It's advocating for dem*cracy. On one hand I do agree, because every idiot has a point, like some ancient Greek said. On the other, I'm all for eugenics, eliminating 'wrong' parts of society, T4 Aktion etc. and making idiots no more than say 30% of society, because someone has to work after all. Advances in automatisation can solve this problem in maybe 50 years.

This isn't EU4 mate. You can't just send 500k units to Raqqa, siege for a month and kill a rebellion. Different nations have different compromises all around the world and quite a lot of civilians still live in those places, you can't just waltz in and kill everyone. Also there are a lot of different organizations fighting for different objectives at the same time. Eventually the war will speed up though.
