Military Situation In Syria’s Afrin On January 25, 2018 (Map Update)

I have been to Turkey a few times when young – nice.

As for the Rama thing – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju0DdTItE0w

I think you have me very, very wrong.

Only in your dreams. USA is supporting ypg-pkk since Jihadists don’t listen to them, Jihadists listen Turkia and Qatar.

USA supports YPG and also HTS and ISIS , jihadists of the Wahhabi’s, they all think they are “Pure” , but just conned by Qatar , Turkey and Saudi into doing America’s dirty war against Syria .

you can’t prove U.S support to HTS, U.S support to ypg-pkk is the main reason of FSA-HTS’s not listening the USA. Don’t get me wrong, im anti-imperialist. Turkia and Qatar has no any work with Saudi and USA as apparent on politics. FSA has nothing to do with wahhabism, you can call it for HTS.

Come on, you know that Obama and Co. knew that anything they sent to their other head-choppers (like al-Zenki), had a GREAT chance of being diverted to al-Nusra. Remember, “we are all Nusra”, when it was actually designated a terrorist faction? Apparently, he even waived a federal statute preventing the arming of designated terrorist factions, just to legally cover his azz.

On top of that, we just learned that ISIS received a lot of its weapons in the same manner. And the 2012 DIA report basically points out that Obama and Co. viewed ISIS as an asset, at least until it almost took Baghdad in 2014.

Yup – ISIS in Syria simply, and conveniently, both appropriated and ‘taxed’ masses of incoming US-Saudi supplied weapons and munitions. These arms have been consistently bought in recent years in Bulgaria, and then redirected from the official contract-order Saudi destination point, into Turkey, and thereafter driven into Syria by Turkish contract haulage firms, to foreign intelligence run hub-points for distribution to militant factions. The Bulgarian state armories profits went up 400% in recent years and are now easily the most profitable enterprise in country due to these repeat US-Saudi mass orders.

FSA is merely an umbrella term of political convenience. It holds an array of factions – and actually most are militant Sunni fundamentalist in nature and loaded up with personal with history and affiliation to Syrian branch of Muslim Brotherhood that has long opposed the Syrian secular B’aathist state. FSA contains militant fundamentalist factions such as: Nour-al-Zenki, Army of Islam, al-Rahman Legion, Martyrs of Islam Brigade, Martyr Mohamed Qassam Brigade, al Ghouta Matryrs Brigade, Revolutionary Commando Army, Sword of God Brigade, Idlib Martyrs Brigade, Aisha Mothers of Believers Brigade, Islamic Union of Soldiers of Levant, Islamic Freedom Brigade, Army of Glory, Descendants of Saladin Brigade, First Coastal Division etc, etc. These factions were sponsored from outset by US-Saudis-Turkey.

They are made up of the foreigners who started coming into Syria in 2009-2010 and since , Turkey only allows colonists into Syria from and trains them for their terrorist proxy army.

keep you’re talking about the before of 2014, that’s no longer valid.

Of course, the immediate past composition of the armed opposition has no bearing on the immediate present composition of the armed opposition. What a brilliant display of logic. Some of these FSA factions were battle decimated, others simply shifted factional allegiances, others rebranded themselves to keep US sponsorship after media exposure, and others were forcibly consumed by stronger factions – it is very dynamic and fluid environment – but point is, the armed opposition including majority of FSA have always been fundamentalist and sectarian in composition.

The conflict between FSA and HTS were ideological, FSA are closer to Secularism and HTS are closer to wahhabism.

No – that is myth. The FSA had military deserters in early factions but these were not secular, nor democratic, or anything else the US State Department told you about them. Many FSA factions were initially loaded with Muslim Brotherhood affiliates. HTS are just re-branded Al Nusra/Al Qeada extremists who are the Qatari proxies in Syria – and loaded up with foreign jihadists and mercenaries – and incidentally, Qatar is also major sponsor and ally of all regional Muslim Brotherhood branches. In reality most HTS and FSA fighters are not very different ideologically, they share similar sectarian goals, and have regularly coordinated offensives and fought in alliances, the real difference is all about their foreign sponsors and their competition for influence in Syria.

you’re just a retard who doesn’t want to see the things it doesn’t want.

Err no – US and Saudi Arabia were major sponsors of jihadist factions in Syria – and still sponsor FSA fundamentalist militant factions in Idlib and Al Tanf today. The US only started heavily sponsoring the YPG-SDF because with the Russian intervention, the US-Saudi sponsored jihadist militants were both being militarily pushed back on ground and simply could no longer achieve the US-Saudi regime change objective, and also publicly exposed for who they really were, as prior US claims of ‘moderates’ fell apart and it was a woeful public revelation to be sponsoring jihadist extremists like Nour-al-Zenki – who cut off a Palestinian boy’s head and posted it to the internet. The US and Saudi’s have long used jihadist proxies to do their dirty work – sponsored jihadists are nothing but myopic pawns in the bigger game – that is all about US-Saudi’s-Israel against Syria-Hezbollah-Iran.

SYRIAN CIVIL WAR SIDES: ypg-pkk = USA, Saudi Arabia, UAE (They began supporting ypg-pkk because FSA-HTS didn’t listen to them) FSA-HTS= Turkia,Qatar (which you called as Jihadi) SAA=Russia,Iran

You completely fail to understand that beginning in 2012 the foreign sponsors of the entire mass of FSA militant factions were the US-Saudi-Turkey. Most of core personnel therein were members or affiliates of Syrian branch of Muslim Brotherhood and had long history of conflict with secular Syrian state – and as such essentially were fundamentalist and jihadist.

Read the ‘Syrian opposition and affiliated ‘rebel’ groups list’ found here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_armed_groups_in_the_Syrian_Civil_War

you’re following Syria from 6 years ago, come to present because you don’t make any sense by past’s history.

‘…you don’t make any sense by past’s history.’

Oh Good Lord, where to even start with that pearl of wisdom…

and Israhell.

THIS is a very factual reality… And shows once again that the entire “war on terror” is a fraud and instigated by the US and that scumbag state of Israel

assad’s lover druzes have also had escaped towards israel, so? if you meant daesh with “Jihadists”, yes they may do since they don’t attack to israel even though they’ve got borders but that’s sure they’re not Jihadists since they target Muslims and the benefits of Muslim countries.

The Druze live in the Israeli occupied Golan Heights , and on the Syrian side of that “demilitarized zone” . The Druze are loyal Syrians , and even those living under Israeli occupation manage to cross into Syrian held territory to keep their Syrian passports current . And yes they love Assad . So you are with the Muslim Brotherhood .

you’re saying druze are good with israel and assad = assad is good with israel. FSA-HTS fights against assad.

Your comprehension of English is off , I said the Druze are loyal to Assad . Even those living on Israeli occupied territory maintain their Syrian citizenship . Yes the FSA and HTS are either brainwashed jihadists or mercenaries waging war against the people of Syria , for the Imperial American Empire .

you began crying. you’re keeping repeating like a broken record or what I must say, broken retard. FSA-HTS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ISRAEL AND USA AS ITS APPARENT FROM THEIR POLITICS IN SYRIA: this is what you don’t want to get it from my comments. daesh = serving for imperialists and zionists as they’re in fight against FSA, HTS and SAA. ypg-pkk = serving for imperialists as they’re in fight against FSA, HTS and SAA.

FSA , HST , Al Nusra , are directly funded by CIA ,

it was till 2013-2014 period, not later.

:))

you people must have a degree about retardness as there is no any concrete proof to prove your claims.

Do you live under a rock, or are you just willfully ignorant – there is vast evidence that US and Saudi Arabia sponsored extremist factions in Syria:

I know all of them and that’s about 6 years ago so doesn’t make any sense, you’re out dated.

Its called “education” from more than one source . You think you are “anti-imperial” , but because of your poor education , you are actually fighting FOR the American Imperialists , its hilarious and sad at the same time . All young men throwing their lives away for American objectives .

you’re so stupid that you think america just like God, usa has no any power to control FSA-HTS.. usa’s political actions like supporting ypg-pkk shows they’re in fight against Syrians as they want to divide Syria. usa once supported FSA-HTS against communists, today they see FSA-HTS work for the benefits of the rising of Muslim world, they no longer support FSA-HTS that’s it.

Need a correction “sponsored foreign mercenaries” that is what they are not local Muslim Brotherhood even those are almost dead.

Point taken – was trying keep it very simple and explain to the reality challenged ‘pantertr’ that even the most original armed militants in Syria have roots in anti-secular fundamentalism. They are indeed however now deceased in manu cases and replaced with foreign recruits who are sponsored with weapons and wage-paid employee of US-Saudi axis.

Well Wahhabi, Salafi and Muslim brotherhood all recruit them at a young age to see which ones can be easily programmed old religious trick in creating those to follow them blindly and unquestioning. These are employed by all as gangsters go after the isolated and indoctrinate the most vulnerable of them..

NO.

in the 80’s yes what about now?

From Wikipedia: ‘The PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by several states and organizations, including the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), the United States and the European Union.’
