>>78341982
Whichever way you dice it, they called off their Raqqa offensive, which had the stated goal of capturing the city of Raqqa back from ISIS.
By all means, that's a defeat. Anyone that says otherwise is drinking the fuckin koolaid.
By all means I wish the SAA had more luck, but well, it is what it is.
>SAA is incompetent and can't do anything without Russia
>YPG/SDF is incompetent and can't do anything without America
Makes you wonder just how fucked they'd be without competent people helping them.
>>78341487
Holy fuck, numbnuts, and all you other numbnuts, nobody is calling this a strategic defeat. The SAA will capture Raqqa. Barring direct US intervention, it is only a matter of time before they do.

SAA, they wanted to get it before the SDF did.
>>78342819
How did that happen ? In the article, they say that ISIS defeated the Syrian army by using a lot of moratrs and jihad jeep. I don't understand how the Syrian army could have been defeated this way with the support of the Rusian bombers
>>78339237
"autograph my breast, pls..."
>>78343797
>>78343797
>with the support of the Rusian bombers
That was kind of the problem (no air support). I think they got zerg rushed by VIEDs and then there was a sandstorm a brewing so they were in quite the conundrum.

What was the op picture that Minnesota-tan posted that was so naughty?
>>78343766
I don't believe that. Got any links?
I mean SAA had nowhere near the manpower needed for that ballsy a move. And I can't recall any statements about the goals of the offensive.
Well, seeing Eastern Ghouta falling is better anyway, but i can concide that ISIS lose 300+ soldiers and SAA 35+ in the Raqqa Offensive, at least they dry more manpower
>>78341860
>say something that you disagree with
>"ALLAH! HOW CAN THEY ALLOW?"
this isnt a kuwaiti board achmed, its called free speech
>>78344062
Did they really attack Raqqa without air support ? That doesn't sound intelligent tbqh
>>78343766
yeah it was a big loss for SAA. not only tactically, but also a demoralizing endure. But that doesn't mean that SAA doesn't have the upper hand or that SAA was "BTFO" as so many shills will cry out
SAA lost this one battle, and sure they lost pretty badly, but they can still regroup and attack again later. Remember that ISIS is only getting weaker and SAA is staying strong. it's only a matter of time before SAA captures Tabqa.

that is Houthibro's comrade. we was injured in a Saudi airstrike and went into a coma from blood loss. the picture was taken when they got him to the hospital and cleaned the wound, but as you can see it still looks horrible.
funny thing is that houthibro was only a couple yards away from this guy and didn't even get a scratch.
>>78343766
On the grand scale, I'd say it was more of a tactical defeat. This loss is a minor setback back and will cause nothing more than a minor delay to the retaking of the city.

hello newfriend
>>78344594
Gotcha
>>78347764
Fair enough. I seem to have missed a lot. I thought "AL-Raqqa offensive" meant the governate in general for there are many more achievable (arguably more necessary) targets on the way. And stating what you are going to do is just moronic.
Let's just look at the map. Even reaching and holding the M4 south(-west) of lake Assad would be a decisive victory in blocking the route to Turkey.
Why didn't they send forces to Resafa? Tabqa has to be controlled before they can safely reach Raqqa, but even the Romans did recognise the importance of Resafa when fending off persians from the east.
It's really hard to leap across desert and try to maintain a foothold for supplying your troops is impossible. It's like crossing a lake. And for that one should take all the islands first. One of which would be Resafa.
I seriously thought this offensive was just meant to probe ISIS forces along M4.
So what will the SAA do now? From what I can tell it wasn't that much of a loss in terms of manpower. I wonder how's morale over there.

>>78352283
Minnesota has a lower population of immigrants than the rest of the union does. stop this somali meme
>>78348369
What game is that?
>>78350922
I'm pretty sure the idea was to lily pad, Tabqa being a major objective along the way. Apparently ISIS was able to muster enough forces for a successful counterattack, despite many people thinking they were too weak and/or disorganized.
Also I think SAA were under the impression they weren't the only ones going after Raqqa City, SDF were supposed to be coming in from the North, but that seemed to have either been disinfo, or maybe the plans were called off while they continued to face unexpected resistance in Manjib, I'm thinking a little bit of both. Gotta say though, if they tricked SAA into attacking Raqqa, pretty fuckin brilliant. Unfortunate, but still, chess and checkers man.
Greater Syria, then Greater Yemen.
>>78350922
Meant the road number four, not the M4 (which is in the north).
>>78352614
Your still the only one who willfully imports them
>>78351268
>>78351268
It appears that the current objectives as of now are to Shrink the East Ghouta Pocket and to continue with the Aleppo offensive.
>>78353259
all that media attention on the US SO reppin' the YPG patches and all was some serious bait and the SAA fell for it
luckily not checkmate in this case
>>78350922
>>78353259
Also seems like the Syrian-Iran-Russia alliance are going through a bit of a decision making process, which seems like it may have gotten in the way of the offensive (particularly causing Russia's lack of air support), although that's not a sure thing, but idk, seems a possibility.
>>78344780
for vhat purpose?
>>78353705
Yea, by no means is the SAA done for, but I'm still of the opinion they will never be able to recapture all of Syria, not with all the outside influences backing the different parties. I wish them good luck, I just hope they don't bite off more then they can chew.
>>78353259
>>78353600
I think this is exactly what happened. SDF/American tricked ISIS into going for Raqqa and somehow the Russians/SAA fell for it as well. Did America ruse Russia behind the scenes? Thats the question, could also be why Russia hit those American backed troops as some sort of revenge.
>Giant Bomb dropped by Russian Jets today in North #Aleppo. Caused a Massive Fireball burned dozens of Civilians.

It kind of reminds me of the final push for Berlin during the WW2... although, well, not. Bad example I guess, but idk, maybe you know what I'm saying.

>>78356039
No, I don't think so. Why are you asking, Nils? Should I have noticed something special?
>>78356144
I think the big bomb explodes at a certain altitude to disperse the small ones. But those didn't look like cluster bombs, from what I've seen there should be a lot of small explosions.
>>78353259
Knowing the tricksiness of the kurds, I would have just taken Resafa and headed straight across the desert a bit east of Ratla. That would have been the quickest way to Raqqa and would have had only two points to capture. Well, it's all over now.
Taking Tabqa doesn't fit the 2-3 weeks timeline and (>>78353810) the lack of russian help really bothers me.

"Not much" is relative. Last figure I saw was 43 dead, and thats just from the units that returned. There was another unit that got cut off and never returned, so the deathcount is much higher but by how mcuh I cant say.
Its double digits but the Syrian Army has lost the majority of its personnel since 2011, they can only hold the line because of Shia militia, Hezbollah, Iran and the Russians

In the mid-1990s, Somali immigrants began to settle in the United States as political turmoil occurred in Somalia; Minnesota became one of the prime destinations. As of 2002, official estimates put the population at around 15,000 residents.[16] Minnesota's VOLAGs, which contract with the federal government, attracted Somali and Hmong refugees. Because of the social and governmental institutions in Minnesota, about 30,000 of the Somali populations stayed. In a 25-year period up till 2011, 84,000 Somali refugees went to the U.S. About 40% of them live in the State of Minnesota.[17]
>>78363866
like I said before, Minnesota has less immigrants per capita than the rest of the country does, and we're also in the top 10 for least violent states.
