Syrians in rebel held territory protest in support of Bashar, and the rebel authorities send them to sharia court
Hmm, I thought attacking and arresting protestors was the reason the rebellion started in the first place?
Also, the media won't stop shilling for Madaya and Zabadani, two rebel held towns under seige by Assad but are awfully silent on Fua and Kafarya, which is the inverse situation and who's situation is arguably much worse
Nothing says camouflage like a giant fucking flag on your back

Is Harakat al-Abdal (tied to Badr Organization) on the side of Assad or not? I couldn't find out through a few minutes looking on the wordpress. I couldn't find any mention on there of al-Abdal, Badr, or PMF/PMU
Okay :/ Ivan gave us a new training camp and I'm hungry for more blood. I want to see the next thread all the way through so that I can document the process and make educational materials for others in the future~ Sucks that they're on our side, makes finding them less rewarding, b/c they don't get bombed.

Luke Sanders
Cant say for sure, Trump and late Obama actions in Syria are pretty much the same. Under last days of Obama rule US started to drone Idlib rebels and started to build a base in Rojava. And under Trump we are pretty much seeing the exact same things. Rebels droped, kurds supported.
Cooper Sanchez

since I've already outed myself as a newfag for not knowing how to properly bake a bread
I'll admit I've only been on Sup Forums for about a month and a half
Still trying to figure out some of the memes, what's that one called? I can tell they're Russians, but what's the original pic and context?
Carson Nguyen
It's from a WW2 anti-Russian propaganda posters.
Aiden Ross
This picture minus the flags. Nazi ww2 poster as other lad mentioned. Meant to tell that russians are evil, scary, genocidal etc.
Owen Hughes
>what's that one called? Liberator. It's actually not WW2, but modern. Some nazi Germany fan made those.

>fsa heading directly towards the US forces in Manbij
>In a 38-page report, "'We Had Nowhere Else to Go': Forced Displacement and Demolition in Northern Syria,” Amnesty International catalogues allegations of forced evictions of Arabs and Turkmens and the destruction of their homes and property. “In some cases, entire villages have been demolished, apparently in retaliation for the perceived support of their Arab or Turkmen residents for the group that calls itself the Islamic State,” Amnesty International noted. Villagers said they were ordered to leave at gunpoint, their livestock shot at. The watchdog used satellite imagery and video footage to verify the claims.
>In the Arab village of Husseiniya near Tell Hamees, for instance, only a single house was left standing. Residents said the YPG had razed their homes in February. In Raneen, near Tell Abyad, locals said YPG forces had threatened to shoot them if they failed to leave. One person said, “They told us we had to leave or they would tell the US coalition that we were terrorists and their planes would hit us and our families. In Raneen, where some people were with IS, there were lots of problems but we had nothing to do with anything.” Alleged YPG threats of calling in US airstrikes against villagers if they didn’t leave are repeated throughout the report.
>Kurdish officials consistently reject all such claims, saying that villagers had been evicted for their own safety because they were in militarized zones and could get caught in the fighting or hurt by improvised explosive devices planted by IS.
Fuck off Sven

Tell me about it, i was at my breaking point earlier tonight catching up on swedish social media
1 article away from bombing the Bonnier family house
Andrew Reed
Does everyone ITT support a independent Kurdistan?
they seem a bit socialist but they could easily fit into the UN, perhaps NATO if they're moderate enough.
that would be a VERY strategic ally in the region other than Israel, but close enough to Iran to apply military pressure.
It seems the DoD operates on a defined plan, that no matter which president, they'll just keep operating on it, unless changes are made by SECDEF, so I guess Mattis hasn't got around to implement (or finished planning) his plans for the region
>kurds have been used again and again as pawns by both the regional powers and world powers. They haven't learned it yet and they will never learn that.
Julian Cruz
Iam afraid few people here support it lad. And Russia (And most of russians) only support kurds as long as they shoot in right direction.
Blake Russell
NATO - nope But yes, it seems like k*rdistan is the latest landgrabbing and destabilization project of the zionists/america/whatever.
>or do we only support FSA here? 10/10
Camden Carter
Yeah mate, let's just chop off parts of Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. I'm sure everyone is going to be happy.
Jaxson Watson
Even if Trump wanted to make kurdistan real he literally couldn't. It would mean war on Turkey, Syria, and Russia. Arming them changes nothing.
Jacob Sanchez
>It would mean war on Turkey Allying with Russia was the biggest mistake they ever made. Deep state are not happy about that.
Michael Martin
and Iran
Ryder Price
Not like Iraq has managed their shit in recent history, who cares?
Turkey, fuck roaches, but they don't NEED to lose any land
Iran? No.
Syria? No.
Just give em a swath of land on behalf of Iraq for their war efforts, then manage Turkey to stop them genociding everyone.
win/win lol
Carter Mitchell
you clearly don't understand the politics of the region if you think anyone will allow a kurdish state to exist.
Chase Perez
Iraqi Kurdistan is pretty much its own country anyways. It's a modern-day vassal state
Jack Peterson
Kurdish militants are communists
FSA militants are al-Qaeda jihadists, might as well be ISIS
Support the legitimate government of Syria and the SAA men and women fighting terrorism
Blake Wright
Realistically though, im sure something like Iraqi "k*rdistan* will happen. Not sure how much clay they will claim in the end, seeing how they have grabbed a shitton more than they "had" before the war. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraqi_Kurdistan
Samuel Hill
The map of the region isn't a lot to ask.
I don't at all.
I sit here with a colonialist mindset. A parent like mindset, the region is full of childminded-states that all have ridiculous views and assertions to how things should be done, differing religions and policies.
I think of it like, let's shove a spot right in the fucking middle we have total control over either diplomatically or militarily as a means to moderate the region and prevent expansion/aggression from all sides.
Wyatt King
Depends on many factors really. Lets see how Turks vs Kurds (and a little USA) fight will end up first. NATO vs USA proxy fighting will be amusing as fuck.
Blake Lopez
>let's shove a spot right in the fucking middle we have total control over either diplomatically or militarily as a means to moderate the region and prevent expansion/aggression from all sides. You can't prevent expansion/aggression there, that's the thing. Losing Turkey will be a disaster.

So we're defacto supporting communism to fight islamism.

wrong you fucking idiot. Turks are more opposed to Kurdistan than ANYONE with the possible exception of Assad himself.
