EXPLOSION!

Developments JULY 27

should be July 29... i just fucked that part up as news are from today .... don't shoot!

...

Which map, Darayya, Aleppo, or somewhere else?

From levant ?

I clap instead

Rebel factions in Al Bab area of Aleppo announce the formation of a unified military command

WTF? I thought that Al Bab is under ISIS control.

Aleppos to date map. I saw yesterday some movements and i want to see it updated.

What image software do you use?
Is there a standard watermarque template we can use? Do we need to create one? We can host them on a page on wordpress. Let me take a look at whats available...

>Movement
There is preparation for a kafr hamra offensive; I wouldn't know of anything else.

nth for White Swan

stay put imma lurck

this one has posted by "revolutionary" not beheaders and "islamic" not terrorists

>West use Kurds to oust Assad
Oh this is definitely on the books. Assad is aware of it, Turkey is aware of it as are Iran and Iraq.
And there you have the issue. All four nations that have Kurds living in their land do not want to see any of them succeed in creating an independent Kurdish state. As much as Iran and Turkey may not like each other, they will work together to stop the Kurds from founding Kurdistan. Because they know that an independent Kurdish state, even if it is only in Syria, is going to be supporting Kurds in the other nation to declare independence and join them too.

This is why Western support for the Kurds is basically playing with fire. Turkey does not like it one bit. They happen to be the nation with the largest Kurdish population and also over the widest area. An area that they have been building up with hydro-electric dams to power the central regions of Turkey. IE not something they wish to lose anytime soon.

You can bet your ass that if the West gets the Kurds to declare war on Assad and start calling themselves Kurdistan, that Turkey will quickly become an ally of Syria in the fight against Kurds. Iraq being a US puppet might not join right away, but if their Kurds get uppity, they certainly will. And meanwhile Iran will support Assad all the way.

The smart move to play for the West is to at most call for some increased autonomy like the Kurds have in Iraq and no more. That reduces revenue from taxes and resources in Kurdish lands for the government in Damascus, without starting a war. It's not the best solution, but it is the only one they can get.

>ahh i can see the new refugees
Syrian and Iraqi refugees are mostly alawi and shia deserters.

Always wanted to ask you what is olgino?

Yeah, no. More like sunnis who did not want to be drafted to fight against their "moderate rebel" sunni Syrian friends.

Problem is any acknowledgement of different sects controlling different land is to Syria a death sentence and an ousting of Assad.

Kurds get it? Druze will ask for it. Then the Alawis. Then the Christians.

Do you see why Assad can't allow these land thieves (Turds) to take any Syrian land at all?

nice, the rebels are getting BTFO everyday since russia started bombing them

Thanx! Tbh I don't even see how this is not normal... every country that understands the power of media will promote propaganda.. and all the media is propaganda. I'm pretty sure there is a group like this people in each country that work's on a local scale, and those bigger players, usa, russia play on the world stage... I'd be hard to say one country does not have this group of people. Even we here on Sup Forums, if we group 10 dedicated people we can make a hoax seem real. I think Sup Forums proved it's power when they shitpost on feminists and all the other crap...

Hell, 5 Argentinian guys are trending #prayforargentina right now.

Holy shit the Kurds really are the biggest scum in the world. I can't believe this. They are like kikes on steroids and twice as ugly.

They're trying to do the same thing in Qamishli. Every few days they fire on Assyrian police officers.

Holy shit I really wish someone drops a nuke on the kurds for what they've done to the Assyrian Christian people

oh my f- geez...

Like I said. It's the best the West could hope for. Because it doesn't start a war right away. And it weakens the revenue and authority of the government as you so neatly highlight.
The goal is to set up a state that is doomed to fail, much like post-Saddam Iraq is. It took ISIS basically cleaning house for Baghdad to get it's shit into order.

>Kurds get it? Druze will ask for it. Then the Alawis. Then the Christians.
Kurd is an ethnical group, Druze, Alawi and Christians are religious groups.

Oh yeah I know about the one Russian liberal that keeps joining these threads. He really must not have anything better to do with his life. I am just amused that they screencapped my posts and posted them on their own board.

The truth hurts them.

Boris Nemtsov was killed by the Russian mafia because like every liberal politician that rose to power in the 90s. He was a crook and after getting ousted out of office he made the foolish mistake of loaning money from them and not paying them back.

And now we play the waiting game.

You're so early today today, something happened?

Nope. They're just fucking with people, though folks are catching on. Check out the tag on twitter. It's pretty funny.

>United Nations seeks control of controversial Russian 'death corridors' out of Syria's Aleppo

The United Nations has urged Russia to give it control of humanitarian passages out of the besieged Syrian city of Aleppo, which some residents are reportedly calling "death corridors".

Syrian regime ally Russia recently announced the opening of three humanitarian passages for civilians wanting to flee rebel-held eastern districts of the city and for fighters to surrender.

But only a handful of Aleppo residents trickled out through one passage on Friday, while others wanting to flee were turned back by rebels, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

An AFP correspondent in east Aleppo said streets were empty in the morning with residents holed up indoors and shops shuttered.

>John Kerry says US 'deeply concerned' by plan

United States officials have suggested Russia's operation may be an attempt to depopulate the city and to make fighters surrender.

"It has the risk, if it is a ruse, of completely breaking apart the level of cooperation," US Secretary of State John Kerry told reporters.

"On the other hand, if we're able to work it out today and have a complete understanding of what is happening and then agreement on the way forward, it could actually open up some possibilities," he added.

nope, and i wish they were helping assad

So guys I'm not really following this Syria story anymore (I should).

How it's looking for Syria/Assad?
Is Russia still heavy involved?
Does ISIS get a lot of new recruits or are they slowly dying out?
How's the Syrian army doing?

Most ME christians in Syria are Assyrian. Druze are pretty insular and distinct.

Just like the French and Italians are both white, yet can distinguish each other by sight.

Why people get such a hard on for these cancerous people is beyond me.

Don't get me started on /k/ I went there from time to time back in the old days. The days before they banned any talk of politics and shit. It was an okay board back then. But now. It's nothing but USA v Russia threads and other inane shit. Filled with posters that think they know about guns because they played Call of Duty.
Ever since I joined a forum that attracts professionals in their fields. People who write the books for Jane's for example, I have just facepalmed at /k/ harder and harder.

There is a reason why /sg/ is on Sup Forums. And it isn't the fact that /k/ bans political discussion. It's because /k/ doesn't attract the knowledge base to actually run a thread like /sg/

I dunno.
1. make fix, someone who tweeted off the account with an android mobile or an apple make fix.

FSA faggots said once that north koreans were helping Assad LMAO

Two North Korean units are there, which are Chalma-1 and Chalma-7," Asaad az-Zoubi, head of the High Negotiations Committee (HNC) to Syrian peace talks in the Swiss city, reportedly told Tass news agency on Tuesday.

washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2016/03/25/are-north-koreans-fighting-in-syria-its-not-as-far-fetched-as-it-sounds/

They even say that the reason the civilians aren't fleeing is because the """"""""""""""""""""rebels"""""""""""""""""""" aren't letting them.
And yet somehow Russia is to blame.

Putin is such a master manipulator that he can get the """"""""""""""""""""rebels"""""""""""""""""""" he is fighting in a war with Assad, to do his bidding.

Why isn't Putin the Emperor of Earth yet? This man is amazing!

Well Kurds represent 30 Milliions stateless people, Armenians are 10M (3M living in Armenia) and they have their own country
I do realize Kurdistan is a tool used to shred the region but hey, they are less of savages than other locals

>United States officials have suggested Russia's operation may be an attempt to depopulate the city and to make fighters surrender.


It's called a plan. It has peaceful resolution and civilians aren't a shield. Sounds breddy good

cute mode

slut mode

Druze are their own sub group in Syria and are not known for identifying as Arab. Assyrians represent 5% of the population but no one is arguing for autonomy for them, only for the Kurds who are 9% of population and many of them are refugees.

They have a small number of advisors, but that's all. Maybe a hundred men.

Hasbara, Kurds have strong backing from Israel, so you get a lot of "how do you do fellow kids" posts promoting Kurds.

youtube.com/watch?v=Ebo-xUZ9AQ0

Kurds have a history of being nomads and genocide. North Eastern Syria and north western Iraq was Assyrian land until the kurds genocided them and then settled on the land. Kurds have never deserved autonomy.

>less of savages than other locals

YPG is just as bad as ISIS as far as ethnic cleansing goes.
al-monitor.com/pulse/ru/contents/articles/originals/2015/10/syria-turkey-right-groups-accused-kurds-rojava-of-war-crimes.html

>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.

Kurds are cunts to Assyrian Christians:

Menagh airbase siege. After the airbase fell, the survivors sought entry to the YPG controlled Afrin.
>About 70 soldiers, who managed to retreat from the base during the battle, surrendered themselves (and two tanks) the next day to Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) forces in the town of Afrin, about 15 kilometers west of the airbase.[14][31] It was later reported that the surrendered troops were from the 17th Division and the unit's senior officers were turned over by the YPG to al-Nusra in exchange for Kurdish prisoners.[32] The Islamist group then executed the officers they had received.[32][33]

Battle for Hasakah city. YPG waited until the city's garrison was almost eliminated by IS before the flanked them and conquered most of the governorate .

Aleppo central prison siege. SAA was only able to supply the prison and the hospital through the YPG controlled Seikh Masqud district, until the rebels convinced YPG to forfeit their neutral status and expel SAA from Seikh Masqud.
