Ok. So assad has crushed ISIS. Iraw has crushed ISIS. OK.
SO what are the major vectors and axes of military action over the next 2 to 6 months?
- Idlib ( resurgent isis activity, rebel complacency, plus the only locale with enough resources and soul to provide sustenance) - trans-euphrates (not the trap idiot ) interactions with the sdf, reclamation of oil fields plus isolation of us bases - golan, rough pockets of rebels plus entrenchment of iranian israel killing evil spirits
What am i missing?

Pretty much what's expected to happen. But it doesn't make sense, why larp as ISIS (meaning no tanks, no airstrikes and no artillery support)?!?

Thomas Moore
Just like Iraq right? Oh wait, no we didn't go to war with Iran when they ran similar operation then. The Iranians will do it under the guise of "Kurds" or "Arabs" and won't likely engage in open combat. The main goals will be to isolate US bases, split Government supporters from the Kurdroaches then launch attacks to destroy or more likely, make US bases useless
Oliver Barnes
Hahahaha damn! Sup Forums banned them or their government?

It would take a couple of sorties for the entire Iranian economy to collapse. We were beholden to OPEC bullshit back then because no president would willingly allow gas prices to triple overnight. That era is fucking OVER.

Jayden Brown
an Oil embargo doesn't work against the US considering they produce most of the oil they consume now a days. Only tangible measure they can take is closing embassy's and bases and we both know that wont happen

i’m curious, if china were to start buying oil with the yuan, would the US actually find an excuse to declare war on china? the way i see it, they can’t afford to, they’re too dependent on china, they pretty much would be helpless. so why hasn’t china started doing it?

Sebastian Stewart
> would the US actually find an excuse to declare war on china? I think they already have - I personally see the NK escalation is to indirectly fuck up China. Theyll have a war in their backyard, one that can turn nuclear.
Landon Peterson
Yeah it would definitely fuck up the US if the entire middle east made a political shift eastwards but i wont see that happening especially in the gulf monarchs as they have tied themselves extremely close with the US and seem to have made the destruction of Iran their top priority, not to mention their entire military equipment is US made meaning unless they want to replace every vehicle and aircraft in their armed forces their going to need them especially Egypt in that regard. It's feasible but their needs be a major change in Gulf-Iranian relations to have them switch sides

Keep in mind no one likes the US in the Middle East, no even places like the Gulf. Theyd be dancing with joy if China or Russia approached them with alternative currencies. I think Qatar has already signed a deal with China to deal in the yuan.

Nah, the NK has already drifted away from China and the chinese lobby has been purged by Kim three years ago(remember his uncle?).
If the US wants to fuck China really bad, they could simply severe economic ties with them and watch them burn.

> they could simply severe economic ties with them and watch them burn. You seriously think the US can live without China? The US needs china more than China needs them. Also, regarding the war on NK, its due to its geographic location, not best koreas relationship with China.
