I don't remember exactly. She was born in the US. Her mother is from israel. Her father is from Iran i believe. They moved to Kuwait when she was like 4 and moved back here when she was about 12-14.

>Three weeks after losing the eastern countryside of the Khanasser Plains, the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) has decided to launch a large-scale counter-offensive to recapture several kilometers of territory in east Aleppo.

>If true, this would be the perfect time for ISIS to attack the Syrian Armed Forces in east Aleppo; this is due to the large number of inexperienced soldiers from the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) that have been tasked to replace the veteran “Tiger Forces” in the Al-Safira and Deir Hafer plains.

Top Kek, there are no such words in our language.
>>68731435
hmm. thats weird. we have no freshwater river/lakes here so i cant judge.
but there is one particular river fish comes from Iraq from the river called Mazgouf. Kuwaiti whenever goes to iraqi restaurant asks for it and if they didnt see it is available they will leave.
OH YES. it is the carp!

For fuck sake, what is the possibility of Muslims uniting with Christians to fight against israel?
The kikes are everywhere on neocon media and the internet putting right wing Christians against Muslims; How much the media on your countries goes against the west/Christians?
>>68731836
You need to try it in Iraqi way. it is being eaten since Babylonian era. im sure it is tasty and acceptable in their way of cooking and my father told me that grandpa travel to iraq just to eat this fish and smoke some hookah from their made with fresh molasses.
>>68730887

Use the sour cream, Luke. It works fine for river fish and absorbs negative taste of dead water.

The right wing christians are what created Israel ironically and now it's feeding off them.
Everyone says Islam is a problem but then they ignore the millions dead from crazy Christian wars like Iraq and even Syria (to create greater Israel).

>>68731836
I know the meaning of this for murricains, but I cann't find alternative in our language.
Our cultures are different in this regard. We call things by their names and if we offend someone, it is acceptable to get insults in response. No more and no less.
>>68731836
The idea itself is an alien concept.
>>68732344
>The right wing christians are what created Israel ironically and now it's feeding off them.
Fuck off, jewish lobby in the UK created Israel.
And that's what I say with the neocohen media, they keep brainwashing people to die for israel and also making false flag terrorist attacks and making Muslims join ISIS who surprisingly never attack anybody but israel.
>>68732514
Is it true macaroni and cheese is an American delicacy eaten on special holidays like Thanksgiving an July 4th?
>>68732521
Seems the bombing has ended, but there's definitely still military advisers/special forces in Syria: one got killed in the Battle of Palmyra

>>68725749
context for pic with kid crying his eyes out?
is he being buried, or pulled out of a bunker/vehicle ?
>>68733058
Things would get a lot messier. There is no guarantee it would end things quicker, not in a war so asymmetrical and irregular. Russia learned a lesson in Afghanistan, as did the U.S. there and in Iraq.

Why do you think Islam has a seemingly endless supply of willing and suicidal warriors? They are Islams neckbeards, the ones who can't get a woman because the rich oil sheiks have four (or even more). They need to rely on women they claim through conquest (allowed under Islamic law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ma_malakat_aymanukum) or die and get 72 virgins.

It goes beyond pussy though that is a major part, since you've had plenty of Koranimals who ended up Jihading despite having pussy or living a decadent life. Young men listless and without purpose will turn to something to ameliorate that kind of nihilistic pain. Niggers and street hispanics turn to drugs and gangs, whites and asians and whitewashed hispanics turn to video games and waifus and weebism. Like >>68740601 said. In the past the contrarian avant-garde movement to attach to would be communism or anarchism. If I could do research and write a book on it I'd call it "waifus and wars: how the crisis of young Japanese, Western and Muslim men manifest".
Perhaps the solution is to export more anime shit to the Mid-East.

They saved Assads ass after the SAA lost several battles in sommer, modernized the military and told them some modern tactics beyond human waves. They always said that they only want to stabilize his reign, not win the war for him.
This also strenghtens Assad for post-war, if the Russians hadn't "pulled out", it would have been appeared as if Assad is just a puppet, by leaving him the final victories he can pose as the strong leader Arabs need.
Also they can show that they are serious about the peace talks, which are surrender negotiations by now anyway.

Colour me surprised. I thought it was just a flat desert by now. I know they spared the Roman theatre since it was useful as a place to stage executions but the rest? I was sure they had blown it all up by now.
>>68751549
They are focusing in the Palmyra Castle and Al-Dawah, the last remaining point of ISIS in west Palmyra.
Does anyone remember how fast did IS advance from besieged Deir-e-Zor to Palmyra?
bump
>>68750095
Wait till you're like, 29. Trust me it hurts more.
>>68751732
Pretty fast iirc. The SAA was still stuck with that shitty arab mentality so they relocated a huge number of soldiers from Palmyra to less important fronts (gotta have our human wave attacks with tanks spearheading it). This enabled ISIS to just rush it.
>>68751635
this will be interesting. . because when liberating these will allow SAA to siege tadmur.
It (Hezbollah) expressed "complete solidarity with innocent people in general, and Belgium and its people during their harsh plight".
Hezbollah accused some nations of funding hardline jihadist groups and of "providing support and protection to countries that are harbouring terrorists" and called for "clear and transparent" regional and international cooperation to fight terrorism.

SAA have captured all high ground, purple.
ISIS will eventually retreat along aqua, however will be targeted by RuAF.

SAA is going now to fully siege tadmur and leave one retreat for IS after taking all high mountains and hills.

Palmyra was so far from from Imperial authority that Romanization never really took root. The crisis of the third century and constant Sassanid raids just made it official.

>Dust filled his mouth, dust and sand. “So fucking dry” the soldier thought, wounded, but then again his thoughts shifted, shifted to some village 30km west from Omsk. A village most maps don’t show. He remembered the lush wide grass fields in the spring. Reaching from horizon to horizon. And Anna. He smiled. It wasn’t that bad of a life for a clerks son.
>His vision suddenly changed, from the brown yellow of the Syrian desert near Palmyra to the blue sky. Someone has rolled him over. Then he saw the faces, dirty dumb bearded faces, the scum of the earth. They yelled at him in their camalspeak. Before killing they would surely torture him.
>‘would’ …he tried to laugh, but failed. His eyes wandered to the radio set. His tormenters eyes looked also at the radio. “What have you send?” said one of those monkeys in a heavy Chechen accent. The sound of the air changed … only a little, then stronger. And soon the air was filled with noise of the engines of Pawel Sukhoi and two little black dot became bigger and bigger.

Peaceful but it seems the region goes to war at the drop of a hat.
Heck, an insulting drawing of Muhammad could be cause for a Saudi invasion.
guys.. wtf is this?? I know there are some fsa ''rebels'' fighting with the kurds but why the hohol map painted them in different colour? It has no sense, they are still thinking in the ''revolution''?
>>68756740
Hohols, enough said.
Military maps.info seems like best map now.
>>68756740
I think those FSA disagreed with the kurds and acted on their own.
>>68756636
I disagree.
Yemen has been an unstable shithole for a long time and Iraq, Syria and Libya should be blamed on US/Nato.
>>68751294
Mad AF about the destruction of both temples, but I'm a bit relieved that the other monuments are still there.
>>68756896
most likely this since the area used to be colored in yellow two days ago
>>68756740
it popped up yesterday. I Am thinking that it's a strategy of tptb, when ever isis gets destroyed they will pop up moderate bubbles for the muh cease fire assad is attacking the peacefull rebels. Something like "it was at this moment when the russian bombed dropped it's load that Muhamed figured out he aint a isis fight but a moderate beheader "
>>68756740
I bet it's one of the arab factions in the SDF, and hohol pulling an hohol by painting them green. These factions often use the colonial flag (green/white/black with 3 stars) that is associated with the FSA.
>>68756904
> blaming Iraq entirely on US/nato
Because we all know Saddam loved Kuwait and the Kurds...
>>68757241
Obviously it's not that simple. I was only talking about the current situation.

They are advisers and usually number 10-15 officers. NORKs have a longstanding history of sending these sorts of provisional advisory units over.
NFW it's 2000 doods.
