I haven't been following what been happening in Syria for along time, how long until the war is over and the refugees can return?

Makhzen is the historic Moroccan deep state, consisting of the sultan/king, his palace, and the whole establishment around him. It still exists today, albeit not in the same form. It's used to designate the monarchy and their power.
Back during the weaker years of the monarchy, Morocco used to be separated between blad makhzen (regions of the country under the direct control of the king) and blad siba (kinda means "anarchy land", where tribes had control and the only thing they did was usually pay taxes to the sultanate).

We've still got almost all of our refugees that didn't voluntarily go back since the 1960s or earlier man, they're never going back. If we lose in the upcoming elections, they'll have permanent voting rights on the matter.

From what I've read, 500,000 refugees have returned since Aleppo was liberated. To government areas.
So to send them all back, let Assad win.

This documentary on Al Jazeera right now, seriously. Massively blatant rebshit propaganda for the Qatari MB proxies in Daraa, but one thing did catch my eye - during one air raid a helicopter dropped a shipping container full of explosives on a street. Dramatic barrel bomb upgrade there.
How the fuck did we miss that one /sg/? Also who the hell came up with that one, the heli must have struggled like fuck with that.
Owen Sanders
lol wutttttt. meme time. great find

Juan Carter
Didn't have a good caption for the footage of the aftermath, but it wiped half the street out and left a fuck off huge crater with bits of mangled container all over it.
This has to be the most memeable caption of the week so far though.
Connor Rodriguez
No footage unless someone else filmed it was just a kid showing the camera the aftermath.
Joshua Gutierrez
How is the SAA realistically going to capture al-Tanf and al-Zuqf without starting a war between the United States and Syria? Not doubting the Lion's ability to get things done, but I don't see how it would happen as of yet since the US is building a base there.
Jonathan Walker

If you can replace our reliance on oil we'd be glad to stop. Good luck doing that in a reasonable time frame though.
Mason Gray
They're supposedly withdrawing soon. Furthermore, the map is a joke. Look at the edits to Rojava.

>If you can replace our reliance on oil Buy it from Russia, Iraq, Iran and Algeria instead of the Gulf Arab Sunnis problem solved

>oy vey! saudi snackbars are the "good" snackbars and the world needs them and we need to support them unconditionally too user b/c oil.
Ian Morgan
What pic? I'm not the guy you're talking about probably.
Charles Carter
the point is you don't get to bitch about terrorism if you put up with it for oil also you didn't answer this
Nolan Cooper
No, it's not about where, it's about the oil itself. It doesn't matter where it comes from specifically, it's a global commodity. The problem is that the price is affected regardless of whether you buy Saudi Oil or not.

Getting rid of Saudi influence/means of control on the US is all that matters, allowing Iran to establish a larger Shiite crescent in order to eventually destroy the Saudis and Israel is worth any possible consequences to the US
Carson Jackson
It's pretty obvious that the answer is "right here".
The terrorism would exist anyway; in fact, much of the terrorism exists now not specifically because of oil (a lot more than the oil industry profited from Iraq), but because Bush is an idiot and Cheney is evil.
Jason Harris
It's really, really not.
Aaron Reed
I see you're a man of culture. Man, I should really do a hezb edit of this...

Destroying Israel and any possible chance at the Yinon plan is worth any sacrifice, otherwise all ethnic/cultural nationalism will be destroyed
Ryder Howard
was the siege of aleppo the greatest kotel in modern history?
Daniel Ward
I mean, here's the thing. Restraining the Saudi's is counterproductive precisely because it undermines the power and authority of the King - the only person with the power to keep the clerics from turning the place into a Caliphate. So you can complain about the Saudis spreading Wahhabism, but I absolutely guarantee you do not want the entire country to turn into an Islamic State. Imagine the two holiest Islamic sites being under the control of Jihadists; think of the symbolic legitimacy. There would be so many Jihadists running around it would make the tens of thousands we have now look like peanuts.
Aaron Campbell
>ZOG conspiracy Oh, yeah, forgot I'm on Sup Forums. Oh well, you can't save them all.
Jacob Gomez
why not just fill the shipping container with barrelbombs for more shrapnel?
David Morales
I'd save that.
Nathaniel Gutierrez
>Restraining the Saudi's is counterproductive precisely because it undermines the power and authority of the King - the only person with the power to keep the clerics from turning the place into a Caliphate. Allowing it to turn into a shithole caliphate that can easily be D&C balkanized and used as an excuse for foreign intervention is a GOOD thing A war against Saudi Arabia and getting to kill Saudi citizens would be one of very few things i would join the US military over >The Jews don't have a disproportionate amount of control over the US gas yourself, bluepilled zogbot

Evan Moore
>wants to fight an unnecessary, protracted COIN war in the fucking desert while the world oil supply is continually disrupted
You people bitch about Iraq and then advocate THIS crap?
It's clear your hatred of the Saudis is clouding your judgement. You don't have to like them, but reality doesn't play to your fantasies about removing them.
>ZOG Oy vey, sure are a lot of angry goyim around here.
Wyatt Jones
>yes goyim... jews dindu nuffin
Jackson Peterson
Shame really, I'd kinda appreciate it for the happening value and that it'd likely get rid of a few of the fucking Somalis slowly colonising my street.
Ayden Flores
"local forces" i.e. shitty militias that haven't joined anyone but will probably jump into the bandwagon once someone starts to win.
Oliver Robinson
>You people bitch about Iraq and then advocate THIS crap? Yes, Iraq was an enemy of Israel The Saudis are an ally, that is all that is needed >You don't have to like them, but reality doesn't play to your fantasies about removing them. Seems like my ideal scenario is actually progressing quite steadily, literally every single time the Saudis any geopolitical maneuver it ends in their failure and increasing Iranian control
>Unironically supporting Israeli interests you don't belong here
Lincoln Smith
Stop replying to him stupid, he is a kike, nothing more.
Xavier Taylor

Carter Watson
>literally every single time the Saudis any geopolitical maneuver it ends in their failure and increasing Iranian control yep. they just last week dropped 7 out of the 13 demands in their ultimatum to Qatar. And Iran just opened a new shipping route to them. Saudis keep getting BTFO at every turn.

Jaxson Green
Making a killing today.
Jackson Miller
Saddam wasn't a threat to anyone at that point. Saudis on the other hand are funding terrorism on the middle east, radical mosques in europe and US, and destabilize their own backyard by invading Yemen and blockading Qatar. It would be for the best if they are dealt with.
Jace Thompson
one question why not giving up saudi israel axis and befriend iran and let them get influence accross middle east so you get the oil and trump the wahhabi
Isaac Robinson
Nah, Mosul was much more impressive.
But then nothing will produce a much butthurt or great memes as Aleppo did.
Kevin Robinson
It really wouldn't because the war itself would create more of the ting you're trying to stop.
You can't kill an idea, thus the idea you can stop Jihad, or make the problem any better, by invading their sacred homeland, is idiotic to say the least.
Hunter Jones
It depends. "Local forces" can often include groups like the GNA-loyal Petroleum Facilities Guard (which ironically controls no oil) in Libya, or Hezbollah in Lebanon. But "local forces" is often used as a generic when there's a mix, or when there's deficient information. So it could be, for instance, the Southern Movement (despite the fact that should be in red) or some other group. In other words, is there confirmation that it's actually the local militia?

>Israel You answered your own question. Befriending Iran is not something you're gonna do while also being friends with Israel, and there's no way the US is gonna ditch Israel for Iran (and I wouldn't support it either). Plus, you don't want the Saudis as an enemy - not because they win or are effective, but because they outsource their proxy wars to Jihadists, and we really don't need more of them attacking us.
Julian Stewart
What do you expect? It's 5AM in Israel. Gotta start work early.
Gabriel Wright
You can kill an idea. You just have to kill enough seditious kikes and the retards who fall for their memes.
Asher Gray
why do you need to be friend with israel ? ditch them already and befriend iran israel has no oil and is the archevil of middle east being their allies is more of a hindrance than an advantage by siding with iran you'll get free access to iran iraq syrian and koweit oil supplies in exchange of weapons
>there's no way the US is gonna ditch Israel for Iran (and I wouldn't support it either why the fuck not ? you say that american interventionism is all about controlling oil and now you're putting muh greatest ally's safety before strategic ressources ?
>they outsource their proxy wars to Jihadists, and we really don't need more of them attacking us. >implying they aren't already >implying siding with iran and cockblocking saudi with sanctions won't make them less of a problem
