I have studied Syria since literally before the civil war, since i have kept up with it on a daily basis.I watched as the FSA arose, and then collapsed do to weak external leadership, and sectarianism. There is no more moderate FSA, they are not really even a factor on the ground. What few legit moderate FSA brigades exist only number perhaps 3,000, most of whom take on auxiliary roles well behind the front.

Of the some perhaps 70,000 they once boasted, virtually all of which have sided with one of the following 3 factions:
>Jabhat Al-Nusra "Al-Qaeda's official Syrian Branch"

>ISIS "Al-Qaeda's rogue Iraqi Branch"

>Islamic Front, not to be confused with ISIS, it's a sectarian Islamist militia bent on establishing a war[ed Sunni "democracy" that would resemble in practice that of Saudi Arabia.

These 3 groups, along with Jaish Al-Islam all dominate the fight against Assad, all of which are literal Sunni Jihadist's.

The western power's all support these Jihadist's group's in a attempt to serve Israeli interest and topple Assad a Russian and Iranian ally.

As a result a flood of Refugee's fled into Turkey, as the Turks expected. Turkey the USA, EU, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Israel ect all thought they could topple Assad easily.

Now in a seemingly coordinated fashion Turkey has aided in the mobilization of the migrant's into Europe.

One must not miss what is going on in Turkey or Yemen either. Erdogan fearing a AKP defeat, orchestrated a false flag with ISIS against pro-Kurdish political rallies in Ankara. This came after Turkey presumably started a aerial campaign against ISIS, when infact it was actually against the PKK, and other Kurds.

Turkey although a NATO member seems to play both sides, it seems to be out only for it' own interest's. Interestingly i could see them just as easily at war with Israel as i could see them at war with Iran.

Yemen is a bit more complicated i could go into detail if anyone likes.

>>55425304
Honestly there is a chance that they will lose that land bridge. If really big group of IS will arrive they will probably wont even bother risking their lifes for it, since kuweires was alright for almost 3 years without it.

>>55425264
I actually like Soleimani, he's a hard ass taht deliver's, i like the video in which he calls out my government for not doing more to combat ISIS seeing as to how close one of our airbases was to ISIS near Ramadi.

We seem to target infrastructure, as if that helps in a fight against a asymmetrical enemy Instead i think we do it to lie and say we are doing something effective, instead we are destroying the infrastructure to cripple these area's for decades to come, especially in the event of Assad or Iran's occupation of these zones.

Ok in Yemen Al- Abdullah Saleh ruled he is a Zaidi Shi'ite, theoretically he should have been opposed to Saudi Arabia, and pro Iranian. Instead he was a Saudi lapdog, he allowed the west to drone strike anyone they saw fight really only Al-qaeda element's that target the west instead of Shia. He even went as far as to do Saudi Arabia's bidding and combated the Houthi movement led by his fellow Zaidi Shia's.

This led many Yemeni's to resent him both Sunni and Shia, hence when the Arab spring arrive he was ousted, he was thrown in the garbage by the Saudi's as his use was up, however some elements of his military remained loyal.

He was replaced by a Saudi puppet Hadi, he was Sunni Muslim and this enraged the majority Shia Yemen. By this time Syria is deep into war, Iran knowing the Saudi's where commited in the fight against Assad decided to greenlight a Houthi rebellion in Yemen.

Like a classic game of chess the Houthi's swept in and took the capital, and marched south on the port city of Aden. It looked as if they would succefully oust Hadi, yet the Saudi's unthinkingly stepped in and declared war.

Ex president Saleh seeing his opportunity to regain some power in Yemen has redeemed himself with his fellow Shia and has committed his remaining loyal forces to ally with the Houthi.

Saudi Arabia then formed a coalition to lift the siege of Aden and to cleanse the country of the Saleh-Houthi alliance. They along with other gulf states began a epic bullying campaign against Pakistan in a effort to get them to commit hundreds of thousands of soldiers to fight and die for the Saudi Monarchy.

Pakistan refused, and the Saudi's where left to combat the poorest country of the middle-east with the highest per capita ownership of arms by themselves.

As a result the pompous arrogant fat Saudi soldier's began cross border raids with tanks, only to find their Abrams destroyed by the khat chewing sandle wearing Shia militias.

>>55426403

Continued

The Saudi's UAE and Qatar committed sophisticated tanks and their own troops to the port of Aden. The combat saw a hodge-podge of Gulf troops, Hadi militias, African mercenaries, and even Al-qaeda element's, backed by the US navies embargoing ships off the coast.

The combat saw the port cities siege lifted, however the Houthi's began to do the unthinkable and have actually crossed the Saudi border to the north and are raiding the Jizan province of Saudi Arabia.

This has humiliated the Saudi's seeing as how their men flee, and are losing armor and other vehicles en mass. Houthi forces aswell as Saleh loyalist commandos have actually killed a Saudi brigadier general on his own soil. This goes to show the Saudi's are a paper tiger, and this scares the hell out of them.

Twelver Shia mahdi end time prophecy basically claims that Mecca will fall to Shia coming from Yemen. The Iranian leadership is doing this as retribution for the Saudi's involvement for Syria, basically a tit for tat policy.

Pakistan must be applauded for not submitting to the Saudi's, it was open bullying the employed.

>>55426803
Also Sudan is interesting, in the past Bashir of Sudan aligned with Iran, even though he is staunchly Sunni he did this in opposition to Israel which employed assassinations. Iran had a working relationship with Sudan until the Saudi intervention in Yemen, basically money talks and Bashir of Sudan is now committed behind the Saudi's in combating the Shia Houthi's of Yemen, i wonder how much that bribe was.

>>55425536
>Now in a seemingly coordinated fashion Turkey has aided in the mobilization of the migrant's into Europe.
well yeah after merkel invited them :^)
>Erdogan fearing a AKP defeat, orchestrated a false flag with ISIS against pro-Kurdish political rallies in Ankara. This came after Turkey presumably started a aerial campaign against ISIS, when infact it was actually against the PKK, and other Kurds.
What does you second part of Turkey bombing PKK have to do with the first?
>Interestingly i could see them just as easily at war with Israel as i could see them at war with Iran.
They will do nothing without USAs backing.

>>55427521
The reason i mentioned the PKK, is that recently ever since the Turks began the new areal campaign against them, this has politically driven many Kurd's closer to the HDP and some to the PKK.

It seemed as if the HDP was on the rise and that the AKP wouldn't retain a majority government not even with a coalition.

The HDP started massive rallies in Ankara that where attacked, i think it was Erdogan's attempt to shut down the demonstrations early and to strike fear and intimidation before the elections.

Who's to say but it may have worked, AKP won the elections, interesting to ponder.

>>55427915
The reason why Kurds are close to HDP is because its a pro Kurdish party. A lot of them were frustrated by not helping Kobane, the deaths by the protests and the such.

>It seemed as if the HDP was on the rise and that the AKP wouldn't retain a majority government not even with a coalition.
No noone ever said they were on the rise. The elections they entered were Erdogan didnt get a majority was the first time they decided to enter it as a party and not independant (the main reason why erdogan lost his majority). That was on june 7. Ever since then the polls showed they would always stay on 13 percent on not higher.

The reason why the Kurds even started voting back for AKP is because they were frustrated by the PKK using their towns as warzones, closing streets and fucking the local economy even more up.

PKK is the main reason why HDP lost votes.

>>55428310
I can see that being the case, I just know from the AKP perspective they viewed the HDP as a threat, the nationalist Turk party, and the Socialist/Communist Turk parties all pretty much let the AKP know they wouldnt form a coalition. The AKP was in panic mode, especially with the HDP rally in Ankara it was supposed to last days and garner alot of support. Erdogan's promise of to prevent a independent Kurdish state in northern Syria has also driven alot of Kurds into the arms of HDP.
What im not necessarily clear on is the YPG's role in this conflict, it is to my understanding affiliated with the PKK, it is of Ocalan Ideology, is Turkey at war directly with the YPG?

It appears as if most of the airstrikes are in northern Iraq specifically against the PKK. It's not clear to me if the Turks are actually targeting the YPG in Rojava. Is it perhaps the Turks are too busy with PKK? I know there are towns southeast Turkey that are undergoing a shambled PKK semi violent protest/ mild insurgency at the moment as you said.

>>55428919
There are no socialist/commie parties (unless you mean the HDP). There is a 10 percent barrage. Its the HDP, MHP and CHP (kurds, nationalists, secularists).

The HDP said before the elections they will not rule out an AKP coalition. The MHP said they are open to talks with everyone but the Kurds. The CHP is pretty much doomed to be an opposition party for eternity.

Yes, the HDP is a threat, just like any other party. Erdogan got mad at them for ruining his majority in the government. For a while he tried to get Kurdish votes back but he gave hope on that, He decided to start a war with the PKK and used the excuse of the 2 cops killed (not by PKK but by the youth wing of PKK) to garner MHP votes. What the PKK should have done at this moment is not fight back and not agree with a war, but should have refused and retreat to show support and stability for the HDP. Erdogans plan worked and he btfoed the MHP, and even got kurdish votes back because the HDP promised peace and was not able to do so.

Erdogan used the PKK and the PKK gladly accepted (because its positive for the PKK that there is no peace, a war etc).

>What im not necessarily clear on is the YPG's role in this conflict, it is to my understanding affiliated with the PKK, it is of Ocalan Ideology, is Turkey at war directly with the YPG?
The YPG is pretty much the PKK in Syria. They said in the past they want to annex Turkish Kurdish land to their future Kurdistan. While they were not that much of a problem, when they took in the PKK (and it was later found out that the PKK was using american anti tank guns that were given to the YPG in Turkey) he found his excuse to start bombing the PKK in Syria. Its problematic that the PKK can go to Syria, refresh and afterwards just come back and fight in Turkey, and repeat.

>>55428919
>It appears as if most of the airstrikes are in northern Iraq specifically against the PKK.
Its always against the PKK in Iraq. Its where they go to hide. They have the KRGs ok to bomb them and even work together.

> It's not clear to me if the Turks are actually targeting the YPG in Rojava.
They dont want the 2 Kurdish cantons in northern Syria to join together. The reason why the bombed them when they were crossing the river. Its problematic if the whole border is Kurdish.

>Is it perhaps the Turks are too busy with PKK?
They cant do too much about the YPG, the Kurds in syria enjoy immense propaganda. They are not going to start a war or something. Just a few bombs.

Good point. I guess what would be useful is knowing what groups to be looking for. The us is hedging its bets with the newly formed NSA(ha!), so we are sure to see theminsisting on political importance.
Similarly, from an ISIS allied perspective a useful insight would be who can change the situation on the ground. A small but highly effective fighting force may have little impact in the longer term.

well in Syria there is only one IS, the main one
you might see some people referring to certain groups as "IS or pro IS" but this isn't really the case, someone is only IS if they formally pledged allegiance to it
that doesn't mean that there aren't people within those groups who are sympathetic to IS or that they wouldn't join IS in future
like shuhada al-yarmouk, or people within jund al-aqsa

as i thought, no explanation why IS throws away 50-100 men every few days in mini-offensives instead of using the 10000 meme-men to take it - or as other option, just leave the damn base alone and not waste men.

>>55435246
you are making a strawman because IS don't launch the offensive or take the casualties with the frequency you are stating
say every week they lost 100 soldiers at kuweires, they would lose around 5000+ a year just at this base
if IS was losing this many there, it would be impossible for them to do anything else in Syria, but they launched offensive across the whole of the Syrian desert while maintaining their lines elswhere

It's not about cutting off ISIS from the rest of the country

ISIS has to be cut of from NATO member Turkey, since they are the main supplier

not that anyone would expect American to know about this since our media is really goofing around on the topic

>>55435874

>>55435919
i know but it would be a huge inconvenience if the only way to get in and out of Aleppo was through Turkey or by water.

>>55435971
actually looking at the map, it seems like it would even cut off isis from Turkey since the YPG the Turkish border in the East, and the government would cut off ISIS supply routes to Turkey in the west.

>>55435971
it still a waste of military effort

virtually no weapons/ammo or other armaments come from the rest of Syria, since Durkhas don't have their own weapon industry since Durkhas don't have industry

-IS Controls al-Fata'ih mountainous Region South East Derna,the"400 neighborhood"+parts of the Eastern Coast in the Eastern part of the City
-Derna Sahwat 2 months long "Nahrawan Raid" on al-Fata'ih has failed miserably -Derna Sahwat didnt fight Heftar Forces for over 3 months
-Military convoys of "rebels" are allowed to pass from Heftar held Tobruq & Baydha' cities to assist Derna Sahwat in their Battle against IS
-IS conducted several Assassinations targeting Heftar Loyalists military and religious(madkhalis) Figures in the past weeks in Ajdabiya City
-AS in Benghazi plays a Major role in the Fight against Heftar -AS in Ajdabiya sets useless CPs and sends military convoys to the South

The USA wants to make sure the spice flows, since it's petro dollar system relies on the fact that it makes a buck off someone elses consumption. By creating a corrupt ruling class like the house of saud that will do anything to maintain it's primacy - even sell out it's own peoples future, the us ensures that the spice flows. it remains cheap and there are no factors which cause say a nation to say hang on, should we not be building schools with our oil revenue. By breaking up the oil producing areas of iran, iraq, syria and turkey to create a kurdistan, the us would create a new client state that would ensure the flow of oil. the less democratic, the better.

Saudi Arabia spends as much if not more than Russia does on its military. A whopping 10% of their GDP and they have the US selling them arms.
Despite all of that they are still struggling to defeat a rag tag bunch of towelheads in one of the worlds poorest countries, whose only source of support is Iran which itself is stretched thin by international sanctions and the heavy price of supporting Assad.

great shitpost

anyway for fun, lets look at some of beliefs of alawite

Their theology is based on a divine triad or trinity, which is the core of Alawite belief. The triad comprises three emanations of the one God: the supreme aspect or entity called the "Essence" "Meaning", together with two lesser emanations known as his "Name", "Veil" and his "Gate"

Alawites hold that they were originally stars or divine lights that were cast out of heaven through disobedience and must undergo repeated reincarnation or metempsychosis before returning to heaven. They can be reincarnated as Christians or others through sin and as animals if they become infidels.

Since the Syrian Civil War greatly resembles the Spanish Civil War in that it's a war of ideology with foreign elements fighting and the global powers involved, I think that the lifting of the siege of Kuweires is akin to the Alcazar in that war.

This is a good point and I think a parallel can be drawn to the Israelis or even the Saudis. Both of those populations are well-off and are 'death averse' when it comes to conflict.

A study conducted about the recent war between Israel and Hezbollah noted that this 'death aversion' amongst the IDF hamstrung their ability to fight.

This is a complete reversal from 1948-1967 when Israelis were actually cornered after settling there.

With greater security comes complacency and lessens the will to risk it all.

that's not what secular means though
secular means that the state does not pursue religiously motivated policies.
Every government post could be occupied by alawites, but unless they enact laws and follow policies that are motivated by religious doctrine, it is still a secular government.
For example, as you claimed
>more from alawite belief: the belief that women do not have souls
So where is a law which forbids funeral rites for women or the belief that they do have souls?

promoting someone to a military or government position based on the fact they are Alawi and never/rarely appointing Sunnis based on the fact they are Sunni is a religiously motivated state policy
if a state has to implement strict religious law to not be secular, you are arguing that if a state isn't a theocracy it must be secular, which is clearly ridiculous
I am not arguing that Syria is a country based entirely on Alawi religious doctrine, but it is clear that it is a country that biases against some religious groups and favors others
a secular government would not have that bias and would fail to distinguish between religious groups when making decisions as to who to promote, for example
Syria under Assad is not and never has been a strictly secular state

you said here >>55439445 'thats basically what most governments are', but this isn't of course true, most governments are not made up of only one religious group (regardless of whether they are running things for their own interest)

The thing is tho, that alawites are most likely to be secular. Many are likely only nominally alawite, just like I am nominally christian.

This morning I had the pleasure of ripping into the typical anti-Putin shits over at The Guardian by pointing out how the RUAF have been hitting ISIS not just around Kuweires but at Palmyra as well, thus destroying the 'Russians don't hit ISIS" narrative.

Now the new narrative is that the Russians shouldn't attack them because there will be terrorist revenge attacks for doing so.

Much better than the alternative offered by any of the remaining 'rebels'. If Assad was truly unpopular, he'd have fallen. Fucking pathetic when the biggest supporters of his opposition are sheltered westerners or madrassa 'educated' jihadi filth.

>>55440238
that's true of many Sunnis too, and definitely of nearly all Sunnis in government posts in Syria, but its irrelevant either way
whether an Alawi in government is religious or secular, he is still an Alawi and not a Sunni

+this idea that most Alawi/Shia are less religious or somehow secular compared to Sunnis is generally wrong

>>55440291
hes so truly unpopular that despite the massive support of Hezbollah, Iran and Russia the majority of the country is outside his hands

Israel has only stated that they view Iran as enemy number one. This means that ISIS, which is thoroughly anti-Shia, works to its benefit as Iran and its Syrian and Lebanese proxies are forced to deal with them.

>shitting himself so hard in his last efforts to not get it

>of course it matters, because if a government was secular, it wouldn't be the case that only one religious group made up the majority of government/military posts
No, just like it would be stupid to claim that US government is racist since uneducated blacks from ghettos don't find their way into the government all too often. In this case typical ISIS supporter can't be trusted to serve well, serve loyally under someone of a different religion and maintain a secular state, so they don't find themselves in the government as often. As simple as that. That the governmental division line came along the religious cracks is the fault of arabic intolerant mentality, and not of Alawites in power per se. They're just doing what they can to remain in power, instead of getting overthrown by intolerant sunnies, i.e what every other government does.

And last but not least, you may blame Assad's government for not being purely secular all you want, but
a) we're speaking in realistic terms, and the alternatives are even less secular
b) it's laughable to hear that criticism from you, a non-secular ISIS supporter, who shat himself so utterly by failing to understand what secularism means, even now.

>>55439985
>>55440188
and to address your last supposition, Sunnis who were in the army would be trusted and part of a clique and corrupt too, but they can never rise to the senior ranks, because they are Sunni, not Alawi
This is non-secularism, it is appointing positions based on religious affiliation alone

kek. Hiz, Iran and Russia came to the game late. If Assad didn't have popular support in 2011/2012 and early 2013 he'd have fallen. Best estimates put the 'rebel' support at never higher than 30%. Face it. You're supporting a violent minorities attempts to impose their brutal will and laws on a population that do not want it. I hope you run into some Syrians some day.

An educated Sunni in the army, who is secular, who is trusted, who is capable, will never be an officer, because he is not Alawi

Keep in mind that Sunnis make up the majority, so how bizarre is it that they are so underrepresented in power? It is only and always the result of non-secular policy of only appointing Alawis to positions of power

When were the first Iranians spotted in Syria?

Back as early as 2012 the CIA were saying Assad would win an election. Assad in fact DID win an election, with refugees queuing up at their embassies to vote overwhelmingly for Assad.

Argue it all you like but without genuine, broad public support Assad would have fallen.

so confusing for assad supporters, they can't decide if syria is a great secular state where sunnis make up the majority of the army and we love our sunni brothers and are only fighting the terrorists, or whether all sunnis are evil and all terrorists and stupid and they are not syrian

mostly its the latter in reality, again proving my point that the Alawi state discriminates based only on religion and not other factors and is therefore not secular

*he's trusted with handling a specific amount of man. Can't be trusted with more. There are tradeoffs in letting potentially more talented but also potentially less loyal men high into your chain of command. Sad but true.

>Keep in mind that Sunnis make up the majority, so how bizarre is it that they are so underrepresented in power?
The notion that demographics should directly translate to representation in government are what SJWs, feminists and blacks use to push for quotas and other retardation. This wouldn't fly on this board, nor does it constitute a valid argument. Try harder.

>I shall, and from your post I can tell you are coming to know I'm correct in stating so
Nope, you shall not, as you have no moral highground for it, and completely not addressing in your posts everything I write that points out your hypocrisy won't allow you to do it any time soon. Assad's government is the most secular government possible for Syria. Stay mad.

>>55441122

>'elections'

the first link is written by a biased writer and again, 'fair' 'elections' don't exist in Syria
ditto for second link

the reason Assad survives is solely because of outside support by Lebanese Hezbollah, Iranian IRGC, and Russia airstrikes
He even has Afghan Shia Hazara militias fighting for him, if he has so much Syrian support, why does he need to get miltias from Afghanistan???

>>55441268
you are making an assumption 1. Alawi are automatically more trustworthy to the regime.
could that be because its a non-secular Alawi regime? could it really be the case that a Sunni might not be trustworthy to the secular Syrian regime? you are just disproving yourself

there is a difference between minorities being under represented for certain non-religious reasons in the West and the majority being under-represented for religious reasons in Syria, which is really quite obvious

No, it's because it's a secular Alawi regime, lol.

>could it really be the case that a Sunni might not be trustworthy to the secular Syrian regime?
Yes, because they're less tolerant and more likely to ask for sharia law and suchlike.

>there is a difference between minorities being under represented for certain non-religious reasons in the West and the majority being under-represented for religious reasons in Syria, which is really quite obvious
Wrong, because there are no religious issues at play whatsoever. Nobody is forced to follow alawite faith. What we observe is the ethnic group of Alawites keeping itself in power against various other tribes which happen to be majorily sunni, but also follow other religions too, i.e the entire affair has nothing to do with religion per se. So we have a typical picture as everywhere else in the world, including western countries.

As for the last point, fact is, Assad = secular, and his rule has proven itself to stay secular with time, which is more than one can say about everyone else there, and more than one can hope given everyone else's stated goals. Stay mad.
