ISIS depends too much on maneuver warfare to use artillery to any level of effectiveness(outside of besieging towns like DeZ), and beheaders barely have any active fronts to use them anyway.

How are Iran and Russia's relations?
I know they're cooperating in Syria but I thought they were fairly economically and politically distant? Isn't Iran an observer state in one of Russia's alliances?
Is there a chance this war will push Syria and Iran into something like the CIS?

The Middle East would be a great tourism location if it wasn't for all the constant "freedom" going on. Both Syria and Lebanon were known as tourist locations too.
I think there was a German study that looked into the 2006 war between Hezbollah and Israel and noticed how Israel bombed a lot of the tourist infrastructure in Lebanon.

SCO is not a security organization. Its just a mechanism for its members to talk and maintain dialogue. Think of it as the G-20 with China as the First Among Equals.
Christian Johnson
>Would the SCO actually mobilize in the event of a war? Is this war going to push Syria, Iran, and possibly Turkey into the same alliance?
The war in Syria seems to be de-escalating, but I can imagine a conflict in which they end up in the same side.
Cameron Jenkins
Strange, in a lot of documentation about it its considered a security organization. I guess its less NATO and more "if a genocide is occurring in a member state and the UN ignores it due to the political background then we will send peacekeepers instead" sort of deal.
What about the CSTO? Syria has been vitally important to Russian power projection and naval nuclear weapons since the cold war. They directly intervened in Syria and the Syrian government supports them, why not enter them into an official alliance?
Blake Russell
>Israel bombed a lot of the tourist infrastructure in Lebanon. Dammit I almost yelled "almawt alyahud" in public hansie.

Iran ad Russia relations are warming. The glue that hold them together is their boy, Assad. They are however competitors in the energy market. Also Russia doesn't want to pick sides in the Shia/Sunni thing going on between Iran/KSA. They have no interest in backing Iranian leaning powers just because. Russia want doesn't want to totally alienate the other Arab states, because the KSA can help keep oil prices stable and the other Gulf States can invest in Russian Energy projects. Russia needs all the cash it could get. In regards to the CIS, the answer is no. They have one solid interest keeping them together, Syria. Iranian interests and Russian interests are simply do not much up enough to for such an agreement. I cant see Belarus allow itself to dragged into a conflict just because Iran is in trouble and vice versa. There is more to this relationship than i can articulate but i am sure you could do your own research.

I would say it was deescalating too if Trump's wacko cockwaving wasn't making me nervous.
He's going all in openly deploying US soldiers in with the Kurds and calling it a "coalition". He's struck the Syrian government what, four times in the past three months? Most recently from a CIA blacksite set up on the border between ISIS and FSA controlled territory at Al Tanf that they're calling a " US coalition training base". If they start chugging in nusrat ragheads across the border to bolster FSA positions at this vital area then the civil war could last much longer and things get a lot hotter as IRGC directly enter Syria.
If Trump gets his way so many Syrians are going to die that by 2020 Russians and Iranians will be fighting Americans and Saudis for this territory. Its an oil and religious war so these parties consider it priceless.

The SCO has no obligation of its members to go to each others defense. There is no article 5 to trigger. It's a security organization in the sense that it gives a method for people to talk to each other and to give its members open diplomatic channels. Security is not only guaranteed by guns. The CSTO is a NATO-like security pact. IMO it has more wiggle room than NATO with respect to its obligations. Syria is a client of Russia, but not a member of the CSTO, which is composed of former Soviet states. Back during the old Soviet days, Syria was not a member of the Warsaw Pact. As to joining the CSTO? No, Syria is worth supporting and defending but not worth starting a world war.

AMERITURDS AT IT AGAIN
>US special forces in southern Syria to establish new base
>BEIRUT, LEBANON (8:17 A.M.) – The military presence of the United States in the desert of southern Syria is increasing, with additional firepower assets – in the form of M148 HIMARS rocket artillery systems – being sent to reinforce the joint Coalition-Free Syrian Army (FSA) base at al-Tanf. Furthermore, it has now become apparent that the US plans to build another base in the area.
>As with the al-Tanf base, the new base – described as being 60 to 70 kilometers northeast of al-Tanf in the area of al-Zakf – is to be a joint operational command center for both Coalition occupation forces in Syria and the pro-Western Maghawir al-Thawra mercenary faction (an FSA franchise directly funded, trained and armed by the US Department of State). Maghawir al-Thawra is mostly made up of fighters native to the Syrian province of Deir Ezzor who prior to their expulsion by ISIS from the province had actually facilitated the operations of the terrorist group’s jihadist predecessor in eastern Syria, Jabhat al-Nusra (the Syrian branch of Al-Qaeda, which later merged into ISIS in that region of Syria due to ideological and strategic commonality).
>The presence of the al-Zakf base is to help expand the fight against ISIS in southern Syria despite the fact that the US special forces and their attached proxies currently share no front line with the terrorist group. This reality is due to a recent pro-government advance towards the Syrian-Iraqi border that outflanked al-Tanf to the northeast, cutting Coalition-led forces off from ISIS territories in eastern Syria. The rationale for the pro-government operation was to re-establish ground-based communications between the Damascus and Baghdad governments;
IS - RA - EL! IS - RA - EL! IS - RA - EL! IS - RA - EL! IS - RA - EL! IS - RA - EL! IS - RA - EL! IS - RA - EL!

The attack is coming boys! I only hope they can hold out the night. Do you think ISIS will capture the city, or will the main Syrian Army reach it before that happens. How long do you think it will take them to liberate the city?
Why Americans are ok that their government is openly supporting teroorists?
Why don't they go out on the streets and protest against this blatant kikery?

Did you see "The Putin Interviews"? Putin not really a fan of big military alliances. He prefer direct deals between countries, guaranties of mutual help in case of war, etc. CSTO main goal is defense against jihadi and "color revolutions". With all due respect, Tajikistan is not really a factor in case of big war. But having access to bases on their territory and ability to deploy airborne troops in case of emergency are breddy gud.
