Too bad the sdf couldn’t use the chaos to announce a Kurdish state. Turkey would never allow it though
Forgot about the Kurdish district in Aleppo, don't think it'd be very smart of HTS to attack them but who knows
I remember any reasonable explanation of what a desired outcome in Syria is being dramatically flawed at best. As a geopolitical strategy nerd, this is fascinating. Iran and Russia really starting to feel the weight of their aggression.
I agree and that’s my point. Iran picked a fight with Israel and lost their entire proxy military leadership and Russia probably can’t deploy more than 1,000 good soldiers beyond neighboring countries. The smart decision here is to let Syria fall overnight, which may have already happened, but the limits of their ability are already laid bare.
I’m curious about this too, but one conclusion of this is that Syria falling in 48 hours as Iran watches presents a pretty compelling argument for Hamas and Hezbollah to sign for peace before their civil populations get any ideas.
Hmm. That’s an interesting twist that definitely doesn’t have to do with any intelligence the Turkish have the Russians about getting their man out.
Will be interesting to see how quickly this tactic proliferates if the fighting continues particularly in urban areas. Urban warfare is going to be forever changed by drones. I have shared before that a kid I grew up with is now an engineer for a company developing a Reaper size drone that can carry 20 or something smaller drones that it can deploy to cover an area, recall them, and redeploy them. The next time we go to battle, it’s going to be the future of war again.
that entire twitter account is a very obvious Israel propaganda machine and zero recent news stories about anything out there so no, I'd say no
how in the world did you get that? It’s obviously a pro-Kurdish anti-Islamists account. The vast majority of the posts have to do with Turkey and their violence against the Kurds over the past decade
Guy that taken literally anything Hamas reports at face value demands proof about a well documented ethnic cleansing that has been openly going on for a decade
Ya the Kurds feel very hard done by because they’ve been actively ethnically cleansed from parts of Syria for a decade and no one cares
I will say its very odd that the same photo posted every few days gets tons of engagement on a relatively small account (its part of a propaganda network)
Like, whatever media bias exists, there's absolutely no way 200,000 Kurds being killed in 4 days would not make waves. That's why I thought that tweet was bullshite. Not to discount our Kurdish friends and what they're going through. Just wish we actually had their back more instead of letting Turkish proxies attack our proxies.
Shit like this is why no one takes you seriously and people have open distain for you here, you fascist little genocidal bootlicker
