And thou wilt surely find that, of all people, they who say, "Behold, we are CHRISTIANS," come closest to feeling affection for those who believe, this is so because there are priests and monks among them, and because these are not given to arrogance.

K*RD MY SHIT UP

Ukrainian authorities have sent to the military directive to start immediate mobilization.

This is all a mindfuck for me now
Progovernment forces were co-operating with the Kurds
Now when Putin and Erdogan became buttbuddies, the pro-government forces turned their backs on the kurds and they started attacking each other.
NOW, Turkey is attacking ISIS and Kurd controlled area and they're giving that land back to the rebels.
What is the end-game?
How can Russia back one side and Turkey back the other when they are friends now?

Lads, what do you think I should write a paper about on the subject international relations?

US/Turk soldiers on Syrian soil without Syrian persmission = breaking international law and the UN is doing nothing

Fair enough

So anyway Ive just returned from being on holidays for 10 days
what has happened in the meantime?

I only saw Darayya and the Turkish invasion of northeast Aleppo to counter the Kurdish advance
any other events? Any SW Aleppo front gains or losses? how about East Ghouta (Hawsh Nasri)?

what kind of paper do you mean? you want to write a letter to somewhere or just your ideas?

how come?

well the topic would basically be "might makes right" in international politics (and the UN just being the tool of the mighty) and this instance only being one example of that.

its almost like isis is not allied with either side, huh?
almost like they want to show off and gain power for themselves and themselves only, huh?

Why would they attack Raqqa and risk a lot of their soldiers for nothing?

lol because it defeats their whole propaganda that is "we're liberal leftist democratic fenimist we dindu nuffin we fight isis k*rdi stronk"

Proves that all they want is to steal land and deport native population so they can claim it for their k*rdistan

they should go to raqqah and get massacred

too many idiots

ok heres what i think is going to happen

assad and syria will retain the parts west of the euphrates. thats why holding deir ezzor is so important. its not a priority right now but once the situation clears all that area between palmyra and deir ezzor will go to syria, no other faction really wants it either way except for isis who will get btfo.

The kurds are being pushed to accept the part east of the euphrates. the problem is nobody wants to fight for raqqa, because its going to be one hell of a fight. and kurds only really wanted to join their cantons.
the idlib aleppo part is a question mark. if the rebels get aleppo, that would mean they have sufficient area to declare a sunni turkish protectorate but i dont think anyone except from turkey is benefiting from that happening.
assad cant let aleppo get lost, israelis and usa prefer the kurds over the jihadis, and turks dont get much except from erdogans megalomania satisfied.
the most probable outcome is rebels getting defeated in aleppo and idlib and turks settling for a buffer zone north of aleppo from azaz to jarablus possibly containing al bab. maybe well see a golan heights situation there. the problem is what will happen with the afrin canton ,will it get squeezed out by turks and rebels (and saa perhaps)? or will it remain as an enclave of the kurdish state that will form west of the euphrates.

How long before Turkey takes Manbij? Surely that's their primary goal now before sweeping the Kurds into the Euphrates.

Bloody time.

Now don't stop before Avdeevka, Kramatorsk and Slavyansk fall. Current NAF borders are ugly.

Nice try Mahmud al Kannadiya.

> Taking heavy loses just for propaganda
Please kiddo, you only fight if there is something to gain.
Propaganda is a tactic used in warfare but not the reason why you are fighting.
It was clear from the beginning that the US needed something big to convince the Kurds to attack Raqqa.

OK kiddo, I think you're forgetting the number 1 rule of warfare, that is it's a continuation of politics through other means.

That propaganda is what allowed a terrorist organization to gain support from the west, it made the uneducated populace think they are some sort of heroes etc.

Refusal to liberate Raqqa will be used by the west, they will immediately start the articles that approach them as terrorists until they take a knee and continue sucking.

YPG, SAA & ISIS on suicide watch.


FSA conquers all.

> Please take Raqqa or we will write mean articles
Top fucking kek, roaches actually believe this shit.

raqqa is an irrelevant prize for a huge cost. afaik its not kurdish populated and its isis central. i mean worldwide central. crazed fanatics from all over the world have poured there to live their sharia dream. the isis turkish puppets that retreated from n. aleppo before the turks invaded are not necessarily the same dudes that will defend raqqa.
factions will only care for raqqa as the final place theyll have to fight to crush isis. like iraqis in mosul.

YOU are on suicide watch also. you support rojava

captured weapons.

>Devleopments
FSA are used as a cannon fodder for the coming Turkish Empire.

im surprised its not desu

After so many years since arab spring, if you're still debating the effectiveness of media I have to say I'm really sorry but you're probably retarded.

Note the hate for roaches, do you think it came out of nothing? The support for YPG would be questioned by the public and used by Russia/Assad/Iran/Turkey to create outrage against western policies. There would be no western volunteers that market the YPG.

Now imagine when the western media starts calling the YPG terrorists and accuse them of ethnic cleansing of territories they took. Next you'll see roaches liberating these areas. Their dream of a state in syria will be crushed and they're gonna be forced to change names again.

You have it wrong, if rebels fail to take Aleppo, they'll have a mini-statelet in Idlib, and will probably take some territory from Afrin to connect it to Azaz

SAA has no manpower to take Idlib, unless Idlibis abandon their province to fight for Aleppo, in which case the trade off isn't worth it for the SAA cause Aleppo

And if Aleppo fails, nothing stops rebels from taking Salamiyya, connecting to Rastan and pincering Hama, unless Russia puts ground troops

Erdogan benefits a lot more than megalomania, he benefits an allied vassal state that supports Islamists inside Turkey

The Daraa pocket is also not going to fall, and once ISIS is weakened, it will be pushed to go for Deir ez-Zour, while the Turkish zone at Azaz and the SDF at Hasaka will push towards Raqqa and Deir ez-Zour as well

SAA will probably get a highway link to Deir ez-Zour city, recapturing Sukhna, but they won't recapture the rest of the province, the biggest question is who will take the Maskana plain - it's equally likely to go to Turkey, SDF or SAA

You mean mujahideen? Our lives are cheap for the sake of Allah (Jalla jalālahu).

>cannon fodder

A lot more Turks died fighting PKK inside Turkey than FSA have died fighting ISIS and SDF in Aleppo over the past year

FSA are reclaiming their territory with Turkish support to boot, it's win-win for both sides

Unless the west pressures the YPG to do it first. I don't think it would be in western interests if Assad/Russia/Iran took Raqqa before US proxies

I dont know man, its possible but did you read rest of tweets?

Kek. I just love kurds being btfo.

Nothing more pleases me than far left cucks getting exterminated

>No thread name or edition

>How can Russia back one side and Turkey back the other when they are friends now?

I don't know where this meme originated but having a few meetings after complete diplomatic fallout doesn't exactly make them friends.

Here's a map I made over what ISIS territory I expected to go to which faction a few months ago

The hate for roaches in Europe is because they are worthless creatures that are not able to integrate.
Sure they can blame try to blame the YPG but in the end why did they fight for so long with them?
The air support, special forces, weapon shipments and training would kinda bite them in the ass.
> Roaches liberating
You mean FSA puppets that are going to execute people?

Aleppo is not going to fall, nor Idlib. Idlib province will probably be a containment zone for nusra (which turks cannot control), east of syria will consist of less radical groups loyal to turkey
yes, but turks prefer FSA casualties in syria to their own.

>You have it wrong, if rebels fail to take Aleppo, they'll have a mini-statelet in Idlib, and will probably take some territory from Afrin to connect it to Azaz

yes i can see that happening. its not impossible.

>SAA has no manpower to take Idlib, unless Idlibis abandon their province to fight for Aleppo, in which case the trade off isn't worth it for the SAA cause Aleppo

i am arguing they will eventually take idlib if turkey abandons the rebels like they did with latakia. i think they could have come to that trade with assad+russians for letting them invade syria.

>And if Aleppo fails, nothing stops rebels from taking Salamiyya, connecting to Rastan and pincering Hama, unless Russia puts ground troops

overestimating rebel capabitilies here.

>The Daraa pocket is also not going to fall

i think theres no fighting there, theyre waiting for the outcome of the war. they have no real options other than surrendering, what are they going to do take damascus? overestimating rebel capabilities again. rebels in pockets resisting =/= expeditionary force.

>Erdogan benefits a lot more than megalomania, he benefits an allied vassal state that supports Islamists inside Turkey

i accept that, but do you think all other factions will just let the turks get what they want? i think theyll settle for a compromise that safeguards them against the kurds. the turks arent almighty

Given that they're Syrian Turkmens there's every chance that they're a joint venture between the Americans and Turks.

>Sure they can blame try to blame the YPG but in the end why did they fight for so long with them?

Look at taliban, al-qaida etc. they were all once like the YPG. Public opinion can be changed pretty fast, when you control media.

>You mean FSA puppets that are going to execute people?

Again purely dependent on how the media reports it, if it does at all. There are multiple reports out there about the YPG ethnically cleansing places and forcing people to migrate. Execution and arrests of PYD's opposition among the kurds etc.

I'm sure we don't hear about much more than half the PKK/YPG attacks in turkey in the west, that is reported there.

I meant if Aleppo falls to the rebels, did you look at Salamiyya? It is only guarded cause it's the supply line to Aleppo, Aleppo falls means rebels just have to drive down the highway

A lot will depend on whether Rastan survives until then, but this depends on the outcome of Aleppo itself

As for Daraa, they are not defeated, they are frozen by external sponsors Jordan and Saudi Arabia, they are the trump card they can unleash on Damascus at the right moment, but for now they seem to be letting Turkey do everything alone

Not saying they can defeat Damascus alone, but the combined strain of both Daraa and Idlib would prove too much for SAA to handle, freezing Daraa has been far more beneficial to the SAA than Russian intervention

Of course there's also the other possibility that Jordan and KSA want Daraa for Deir ez-Zour, that's why they're saving them, but who knows

It's not really a pocket, it's a stronghold like Idlib and Aleppo, when the supply tap is reopened a lot of SAA forward positions in the province would fall like dominoes, plus a lot of Deir ez-Zour refugees are scattered across Hasaka, Idlib, Damascus and Daraa, these will form a base of any foray into Deir, Turkey used locals to invade Jarablus after all

I doubt Turkey will abandon the Idlib rebels, Latakia was a lost cause given the Alawite population, Idlib and Aleppo are not and can bleed the SAA dry if the SAA tries to advance beyond immediate areas like Jisr, east Aleppo, etc and even those would be very costly

The other factions need Turkey to supply them against the SAA and YPG, and Turkey needs them as a bulwark against the YPG and a political source of strength, the rebels are the underdog here, they can launch offensives but they're doomed to fail unless Turkey supplies them, and they're not gonna ally with SAA or YPG just to blackmail Turkey

FSA are more experienced fighting for their own home turf than the Turks so it still makes sense even if the FSA were Turkish citizens and soldiers

>You mean FSA puppets that are going to execute people?
only alawites and shias

Your point was that the media will be used to pressure the Kurds into attacking Raqqa.
But after calling them terrorists and trying to frame them, there is no way for it to happen either.
Sure the media can say and write a lot of bad things about them, but after so much time praising them, it would need a lot to actually reverse the effect.
Just does not sound like a smart move to do, because they would hurt themself.

turkey = isis

twitter.com/brett_mcgurk/status/770185546756919296
>deep concern
plz stop saying that

If turkey touches Kobani, the kurds will go ape shit.

It would create more work and thus if they can do it without having to resort to it, it would be best.

If not, however, they can have a simple change of leadership in the YPG. Blame a couple of high up terrorists and say they are criminals and don't represent the YPG overall. Have a few videos of them on trial etc. Then proceed on the road to al-Raqqah right after when the YPG realizes it's easier to bend over than resist.

Turksmell schools open in like a month lad.

I don't know about highschools though, so maybe you will get rid of the most Turks here.
