What a fucking retard, if you want to win a war people will get killed. Does he even remember all the previous US wars?
https://www.almasdarnews.com/article/saudi-fm-threatens-turkey-policy-shift-toward-syria/
>The Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia, Adel al-Jubeir, said that Turkey knows very well that it is incapable of betraying the Syrian opposition with such ease, questioning the sudden and unexpected shift of attitude adopted recently by the Turkish Prime Minister.
>“He [Turkish PM] is aware that Turkey is vulnerable to be divided by the Kurds; making such a fatal mistake will probably lead Turkey to collapse”.

>One day after saying that Turkey needs to return to normal relations with Syria, Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım said that for anything else to change on Turkey’s side regarding Syria, first Syrian President Bashar al-Assad needed to go.
>“It is for sure that something needs to change in Syria but above all Assad must go first,” Yıldırım told BBC’s HARDtalk program on July 14.

One of the ironies of years of dehumanizing Arabs, Muslims and Palestinians is that now it is very hard for them to play the humanitarian card. Even if the worst accusations against Russia/Assad are true (and they are not ) nobody in the audience would care.

Depends purely on the faction. The actual moderates are not in combat, mist are just staying at home protecting their home, village, and town. The extremist factions are the most willing to fight. It's the idea, the concept of being rewarded in the after-life that motivates them. The god of al-nusra, Ahrar al-sham, and the other extremist factions is whom they are motivated to serve. They view Bashar and those that support him as troglodytes, traitors, apostates, and everything that the Sunni extremists oppose. If dying in the field means reward there after, then it was all worth it for them.

Let me see that boipucci :DDD
So while Zahreddine was earlier rumoured to be the new commander of the armed forces in eastern Syria, it has now been confirmed general Mohammed Khadour has been replaced by Major General Hassan Mohammed, a veteran of the Qamishli battles against ISIS

Citing Obama's executive order July 1st:
>Civilian casualties are a tragic and at times unavoidable consequence of the use of force in situations of armed conflict or in the exercise of a state's inherent right of self-defense.
Of course that's not meant to cover opponents of the US, only allied governments and of course the US government itself.

It's ridiculous how badly manipulated the so-called journalists in the West are.
He's given a few talking points, and he just fires them off in sequence:
>Tries to shit on Trump
>Of course they have to throw in the old barrel bomb meme
>Standard accusation of using chemical weapons (proven to be Turkish)
>Tries to get Assad to comment on celebrity tier drama in the US election
>Spouting bullshit about some bitch reporter who got whacked in a war zone
The western media has about zero fucking credibility by now. They're all proven to be State Department and Pentagon puppets.

They are promised they will get laid with 72 virgins when their body parts get scattered in combat.
The worrying thing is, we're not sure if Mohammad (pbuh) promised male or female virgins.
Also, Mohammad was not clear on those who waging Jihad who die by stepping on a land mine or getting killed by friendly fire. Do they get laid in paradise as well? Or do they only get 1/3 of the teenage boy virgins?
Islam is so confusing..

Other details of the houris that have been pointed out by Sunni scholars include that the houris would not urinate, defecate, become pregnant or menstruate.[12] It has also been said that all houris are "transparent to the marrow of their bones",[13][14] "eternally young",[15] "hairless except the eyebrows and the head",[15] "pure"[14] and "beautiful".[14]

Anyone else feel the heat and tension from the interview. I was amazed at how well Assad handled the whole thing, the man has balls of steel and an iron will. I was expecting to see some frustration or blunders in his responses but they were perfect and absolutely shredded the NBC shill.
My favorite part was when they talked about the dead reporter.

It would have the largest economy and military in the area covering the Balkans, the Middle East, the East Mediterranean, the Caucasus and Central Asia, and become one of the key global great powers due to its geographic location.

It's called investing in science and technology.
The Saudis have immeasurable investing power. State owned Aramco is so large that the company's real value is unknown, estimated to be anywhere between 1 Trillion and 10 Trillion dollars. Can you imagine the sheer scale of such a company? They could wave their hands and buy entire industries. Take over big pharma, stem cell technologies, get into CRISPR gene editing, clean energy. Heck, they could just become VCs and flip the entire Silicon Valley table. But no, instead they stick mostly to welfare retard tier markets like real estate and oil.

Radiation exposure was not responsible for the deaths of six workers helping to contain the crisis at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant, a U.N. committee said in a preliminary assessment Wednesday.
Based on information available so far, their deaths are attributable to cardiovascular disease or other reasons, according to the report compiled by the U.N. Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation.
One of the six died of acute leukemia, but radiation exposure was ruled out as a cause because the time between possible exposure and death was so short, the committee said.
>>80969672

>>80990661
Yes, and to correct that the Orthodox countries of the Balkans and Caucasus should form a confederation of their own.
Turkey is a internally unstable mess hostile to every country it borders, and in turn all of its neighbours are hostile to it.
Better that they join resources in the face of such an unpredictable and unstable regional farce.

How does a standby plant cause more pollution then relying on only traditional plants?
These threads would actually be interesting if there was less Assad ass licking and more actual information and maps.
>inb4 maps are in the link look them up yourself
What use is a /sg/ thread that is just 90% spam bumps?
Not trying to be an ass, OK maybe a bit of an ass with pointing out the high level of Assad ass licking but it is true, but would like to see this thread evolve into something more than a circle jerk with random information thrown in.

you are aware that windturbines require set speeds? if the wind is too slow they actually drain power from the grid (as it takes power to operate the transmission equipment) and if they go too fast they disconnect the power generator for safety reasons.
Most are designed that under 3 knots and over 20 knots they do not work. Also they do not last long as hoped for.
Solar has huge issues on it own.

Standby power is generally natural gas, but sometimes they are coal/oil or nuclear.
These power plants have to provide power as soon as a wind or solar plant power production drops. Since they take a while to start up, you have to keep them on at all times at low power states. low power states are very polluting and inefficient. It is a reduction of pollution if the are using gas as a backup (as natural gas is a lot cleaner then coal) but you are better off just building the natural gas plants and running them efficiently.

Thanks anon.
>>80992178
if this is true why don't environmentalists know this?
>>80992178
To be clear - I do think that solar and wind have a place in energy production, but more of "On site power production to reduce the use of grid power" Then "Produce grid power with wind/solar"
so for example, putting up some solar cells to reduce your electric bill is a cool thing. Trying to run the power grid off solar or wind is silly.
and back on topic.

>>80992638
Environmentalists are more about feelings then actual facts. For example, if you want clean energy, the best way is to roll out Geothermal, Natural Gas, hydro, and nuclear power and replace all coal and oil plants. But selling the idea of dams or more nuclear power plants is a non-starter in the green community.

You are not part of the solution, you are part of the cancer.
Syria just looks like the new cesspool of the Middle East with no hope in the near future.
If Assad wins, the rich elites will stay rich, the poor majority will stay poor, militant, and lead to more terrorist activity both in Syria and exported to other countries.
If Assad loses, will be a Shia purge which will just trigger more Iranian and possible Russian involvement for even more bloodshed and possible escalation to war outside of Syria
Seems the best solution is a peace settlement and balkanization. The rich get to keep their peice, the Russians get their base or bases, the Sunnis get to rule themselves, the Kurds get to rule themselves.
Still could be issues with Turkey but coming to terms and then globally removing ISIS should be the first step.

agreed but you'd think some of them (especially the ones that are politicians) would look this shit up.
But yeah wasn't the green party in Germany responsible for closing down the nuclear power plants? Now they are investing in several new coal plants. I just don't get "green" politicians. wtf

>the rich elites will stay rich, the poor majority will stay poor
And this is different from any other middle eastern country or wait, even America or Europe, how?
Assad winning, restabilizing Syria and curbing out remaining Nusra elements will cause FAR LESS terrorism in and from Syria, than al-Nusra winning and declaring a caliphate will
>the Sunnis get to rule themselves
That essentially means allowing al-Nusra to establish an Idlib caliphate instead which would still be a cesspool of terrorism. Which international party is going to force al-Nusra to the negotiating table if they have all other opposition groups by the balls, outnumbered and they have de facto control over almost entire Idlib? Nobody will. What we will have is a decade of terrorism in the middle east based from Idlib, until USA decides that its time to wipe them out. Itll be ISIS all over again.
"Sunnis ruling themselves" sounds like youre stuck in 2011 or 2012. The reality has changed. No peaceful Sunni group controls a territory in Syria and a democratic secular Sunni government cannot be suddenly imposed on the opposition-controlled territories of significant size (Daraa, Idlib and arguably northern Homs)

>>80993107
You sound like those self-declared "realist" columnists over at Foreign Policy. Making up your own "what if" scenario rarely yields any significant insight.
The conflict in Syria may have had elements of class warfare in the beginning (Rami Makhlouf comes to mind. There is a reason the first rebels burned the Syriatel building in Daraa right after attacking the government building.), but it stopped being about that the moment foreign powers stepped in, which one could argue was from the start.
>muh revolt of the poor
The terrorist activity will mostly cease when the conflict is deemed no longer profitable by the foreign powers funding the rebels. Assad does not need to eliminate every single rebel, he just needs to make sure the rebels are no longer a sound investment.

you might not like to hear it, but exactly ZERO people have died to the Japanese radiation That right, Zero.
Excluding shitty Russian reactor designs (RBMK) the death toll from commercial reactors are the following.
3 fatalities – SL-1 accident
2 fatalities – Tokaimura nuclear accident
1 fatality - INES level 4
A lot more have died from screwups with cancer radiation medicine then commercial reactors if you exclude the RBMK.
Sorry Hans if that doesn't meet your views on nuclear power.

With the backing of tanks, Israeli military bulldozers have entered the demilitarized zone that divides Israel and the Syrian Golan areas, constructing a set of anti-tank trenches and fortifications 300-500 meters inside the DMZ.
This is the first time that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have operated openly on the Syrian side of the border since the beginning of the Syrian civil war some five years ago. No opposition or protest from Syrian President Bashar Assad in Damascus has been offered.

What you think about the new sodium cooled russian design?
>>80996673
I do not know many details of the BN-800 (know more about the BN-600) but the BN-800 is supposed to be not much changed from the BN-600 except the fuel that it uses.
The BN-600 is a good design. Due to Carter we cant really make these reactors in the US. Key thing is who the Russians sell it to, as it could be easily converted to produce Weapon grade fission material.
Latakia offensive is really failing to pick up steam, I am kind of disappoint.

By the way, the kurddish KDPI Peshmerga started the armed struggle in Iran again, after 20 years. If it spreads, it could divert some Iranian support capacities for Assad.
>>80997392
The primary focus is darayya, east ghouta, and Aleppo. Once darayya is liberated or the Aleppo offensive is successful in securing it's objectives, then the shift will be on lattakia.

Sunnis winning would not be a caliphate
Shias winning is much closer to an actual caliphate with Iran, Shia controlled Iraq and Syria. That would be a possible caliphate and one not to be taken lightly.
You really think that if Assad wins that the Sunnis in Syria and Iraq are not going to continue to focus on terrorism? That doesn't make any sense.
Assad is an oppressor, one that has lost much of his military power. Stability would at best be a very small area with the rest becoming an ungoverned wild zone of terrorist training and discontent.
There are no peaceful Shia in Syria either. They whole country is at war.
I'm no fan of Muslims, the world would be better without them. ISIS is the biggest problem, then Sunni and then Shia, from a propensity to be extremist and violent perspective but a Shia caliphate or the possibility of one is no victory either.
Plenty of Sunnis in Syria and Iraq. They are either going to get to govern themselves or there never will be true stability in the Middle East.
This could be the time to redraw the Shia, Sunni, Kurd lines so at least there is a slightly better chance for stability. Stability won't happen in the short term but a balkanized Syria is the best chance.

it's just pointless discussing with shitheads like you as you just don't want to understand how radiation kills you by destroying your dna and thus giving you cancer...
if i would provide data about higher cancer rates next to those shity reactors and places you store the waste you will just start the discussion from the beginning or throw a hissy fit about coal... it's pointless.

Yes, because minority dictators work so well against a majority populous.
>>80995040
If he was the leader of half the Sunnis and all of the minorities, this would all ready be over.
>>80996043
The Sunnis that were there in the beginning are still there. They are fighting against the minority dictator for the same reasons they rebelled in the beginning. Because they have been joined by extremists does not change their situation.
Disenfranchised Sunnis will continue to be a terrorist threat into the foreseeable future. I'm not sure there is any reason to think this is not going to happen.
