The elite Tiger Forces have reportedly redeployed most of its units from the province of Deir Ezzor to northeastern Hama and southern Aleppo to support the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in its clashes against Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (formerly Jabhat al-Nusra, the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda) in the area. Pro—government sources speculate that this is a sign of the upcoming large-scale advance towards the Abu al-Duhur Airbase.

Members of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) have successfully counter-attacked against the SAA and entered the villages of Ramlah and Abisan. Two SAA soldiers were reportedly captured by militants.

On November 30, Ahrar al-Sham said that its members have repelled an SAA attack on its positions in the Armored Vehicles Base in Damascus’ Eastern Ghouta. The militant group added that a battle tank of the SAA was destroyed during the clashes.

Pro-government sources claimed on November 21 that the SAA had restored control over the entire area of the base after repelling the attack of Ahrar al-Sham. However, it appears that the militants still control some positions in the command section of the base.

The US-led coalition has announced that it withdraws the 1st Battalion of the 10th Marine Regiment from Syria. The battalion includes 400 US marines armed with M777 howitzers. The US Marines participated in the Raqqah battle supporting the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces.

ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has ordered the remnants of the terrorist group to focus on Libya to compensate for losses in Iraq and Syria, the UK-based Saudi newspaper al-Sharq al-Awsat reported. The report quoted documents allegedly found in ISIS locations in various parts of Libya, including al-Baghdadi’s letters to 13 of his top supporters. The documents contained orders to turn southern Libya into a new ISIS base, which will be used for operations in North Africa, including Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria.

Meanwhile, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool, a spokesperson for the Iraqi Army, told Fox News that al-Baghdadi is currently hiding in the ISIS-held area on the Syrian-Iraqi border. According to the general, the terrorists’ leader sustained “severe injuries” on February 11 as a result of the Iraqi airstrike on the city of al-Qaim.

If al-Baghdadi is really alive, he and his inner circle will likely attempt to leave the shrinking ISIS-held area in Syria and Iraq soon and to establish a new ISIS base in some African or Asian country. It’s high likely that Libya can become such a country.

All head-chopper caliphates have been, are and always will be run out of the main Saudi-Wahhabi caliphate in Riyadh. I challenge anyone to explain ANYTHING different between the definition of a caliphate and the al Saud Wahhabi Caliphate, otherwise known as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A regular caliphate is ruled by a caliph – a single person identified or chosen for the title. In the Saudi caliphate, the only twist is that the caliph function is sort of virtualized. It’s a cooperative arrangement between the top Wahhabi Death Cult clerics and the current leaders of the psychopathic, degenerate al Saud clan.

Each and every time the US MSM tries to inflate the horror of a caliphate, they point out their own hypocrisy by ignoring the peril of the continued existence of the Saudi-Wahhabi Caliphate. The Pentagon and CENTCOM hide like cowards behind the lie that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia – the state – is our ally. They refuse to recognize KSA is just the front for a corrupt but powerful caliphate whose only objective is to gain more ideological followers, power and territory. Destroying Iran and killing all Shia are important steps in those objectives. What excuses will the Pentagon and CENTCOM use to justify their treasonous acts of aiding and abetting the Saudi Wahhabi Caliphate after that?

“But… but… how could we have possibly known? The Saudis had us completely fooled. It looked like a legitimate state to us, not a caliphate. What a fiendishly clever deception!”

Strip the relevant US commanders of their US citizenship and bar them from ever setting foot on US soil again for life – after they have served consecutive 20 year prison sentences for Dereliction of Duty and acting as agents of a foreign power. I would have just tossed in Treason, but I think the penalty for that is execution. I want them to rot in prison thinking about how they have profaned the Constitution by defending corrupt US political interests.

dream on…

It would take way more than a mere dream to produce the fantasy that the US finally recognized the Saudi Wahhabi Caliphate as the source of all ‘Islamic’ extremism and terrorism and declared war on them.

Maybe sufficient amounts of liquor, hallucinogens and opioids before the ‘dreaming’ part would be enough. You could also ram a couple of 20kV cattle prods into your eyes for the visuals after several days of sleep deprivation, while pounding your head with a 48 oz. ball peen hammer.

It’s difficult because the brains of Americans are somehow hardwired to accept the idea that Saudi Wahhabi head-choppers just randomly pop up in various places and have nothing to do with Saudi Wahhabism or our ‘allies’: Saudi Arabia and the GCC. The US just needs to dispatch troops, drones and F-35s to temporarily defeat head-choppers then wait until they pop up somewhere else.

PZIVJ

I think that the 20kV cattle prod is an excessive amount of force, even for a troll. Glad that you also see Saudi Arabia as the main problem for peace in the ME.

matt

Please include all the other oligarchs on this planet in your execution plan, as well as all CEO’s and owners of the weapon factories.

Rob

Eliminate American and all Israel from whole Middle East then there will be no ISIS because ISIS and all other terrorist groups are run by America and Israel.

Vtran

Guarantee “ISIS” will get safe passage ,,,,, flown / protected by Yank aircraft !

LT

Spoken like a true moron. Blocked.

Rob

Vtran: you are absolutely right. America have sent ISIS from Syria and Iraq to Afghanistan, and African countries like Libya.

Vtran

Rob: This situation only lasts while ISIS are “loyal” to Yanks / Yank dollar.

However when enough “drift” seek their own agenda’s then Pandora’s Box will be Truly Open and Only Then we will see Yanks seeking “co-operation” to remove the threat that They Created !

Ivan Freely

Don’t forget Saudi Arabia.

Rob

I know the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is run by America and Israhell. This is not hidden from anybody. Therefore, Russia, China, Iran, North Korea and other world countries are deeply concerned with America and Israhell activities in the region.

John Herling

Oh, is that why the U.S. has dropped bombs on ISIS and helped the Kurds fight ISIS? Now, Rob, show us any proof you have that either the U.S. or Israel have anything to do with running ISIS. What you don’t have any? Why am I not surprised?

Rob

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SOGK57xs5Ro

In UN the ISIS leader is the head of human rights violation. U.S. Senators John McCain and Hillary Clinton: we have been funding and arming ISIS, FSA, Al-Qaeda and Taliban all the time.

Zionist America is the mother of all terrorists. They using ISIS, Israhell, AL-QAEDA, and other all terrorist groups for intervention in the target countries. Kurdistan is a bigger project of America than Israel. America will divide Syria and Iraq by their own intervention in these countries.

Zionist America funding and arming all terrorist groups to kill millions in every single country in the world.

Starlight

I know you zionists get paid by the post, but trolling here is a literal waste of your time.

LT

Says the russian bot.

John Herling

There haven’t been any Zionists since 1948, when the State of Israel came into being.

Orcbuu

BOOM MF! You didnt know anything the US is doing, they are Criminals of the Highest grade.

LT

You sound like a moron. Blocked.

Orcbuu

And you are INDOCTRINATED, to many 80-90 Movies i guess, not that they are bad, but they where just movies. Or to Indoctinated to FINALY beLIEve you where lied to the whole time you are alive.

markusaa

I think you have watched too much on the X-files

John Herling

I have read multiple media reports of what the U.S. has done. Have you? Do you even have any access to uncensored media?

Kira Binkley

They do not run ISIS, but neither does America fight them. Ask Insane McCain; he still can’t figure out how U.S. arms and tanks got into the hands of al-Baghdadi.

John Herling

Do you deny that the U.S. has dropped bombs on ISIS positions and has supplied the Kurds who have fought ISIS?

palebluedot

And to think…Emirs Obama and Clinton made it possible for ISIS to move into Libya.

I really don’t know why Trump doesn’t hammer this point (and the point that Obama effectively cultivated ISIS in Syria) home on a daily basis.

Ivan Freely

Trump have bigger problems to deal with.

FSW

It’s high likely that Libya can become ISIS new headquarters, isn’t that interesting…. The Slave State of France and Africom sponsored slave States are planning to Invade Libya on the pretext of putting an end Slavery, well that’s what French Pres. Emmanuel Macron is saying. Could it be that France (NATO), and the US (AFRICOM) are getting ready to supply ISIS in Libya like they did the last time they illegally invaded Libya? Expect a large scale war to break out in Africa, a Canadian military base attack by ISIS and or a Western mercenary group dujour should serve has a sign of things to come.

matt

the slave story was made by…CNN! wasn’t that the fake media?

FSW

Oh there’s plenty of human trafficking going on in Libya and there as been for quite some time, but nobody really gave a shit about the Western Alliance cartel slave trade. The West Illegal war in Syria was much more news worthy. CNN must of forgotten to mention that.

Vtran

War is already in Africa …. Check out HATO / Yanks in Mali …. and spreading to neighboring country’s

Of course not reported in Western MSM

Qaddafi was removed for many reasons including stemming the flow of “refugees” fleeing HATO / Yank wars in Africa … now no Qaddafi and that region of Africa can ALL come to Europe !!

FSW

Bush initiated, Obama supported and Trump backed Africom activities in Africa except for a few have mostly gone under the radar but that all about too change.

Vtran

Too late … 100 plus million on route to Europe …

ghartwell

And Gadaffi blocked.

Starlight

The future of ‘ISIS’ is african islamic terror- as Nigeria has already been experiencing for years now.

The Syrian Arab Baathist Army will triumpth for its people! https://theuglytruth.wordpr… holywar.org Reporting the truth: smoloko.com purestream-media.com syriatruths.com informationclearinghouse.info electronicintifada.net http://www.12160.info to fight and resist the evil zionists ZOG ,the evil zionists rothschild’s evil israHell and and the evil house of saud crypto-jews in saudi arabia wahhabia who do nothing but damage ( who’s king in the late 1960’s addressed all the UN and arab countries requested them to recognize and accept israHell as a country) and their allies’s control/occupation of governments and the arab land of palestine and its neighbouring arab countries, to fight and resist those zionists is to fight to remove them from governments and economic power without removing them out of these office from these positions and freezing their USD currency assets monopoly dominanting global markets and trades( the 1 dollar bill has shapes of the stars of david ) wars instigated by zionists bankers on sovereignt independent states and and against their territory’s integrity will continue and the zionists’s scheme to establish a one global government control could be all set .

they must be removed from these positons (by us who are fighting them and only by us ) in order to get international peace progress prosperity and a good better and more positive dialogue between all countries and their peoples who their own peoples will lead and decide what to do by and for themselves. manage what their internal and foreign affairs to other countries and people’s would be and not led by some private zionists’s monopoly organisation who wages wars on whoever they want and on behalf of whoever they control and whoever bans rothschild influence and rothschild’s-controlled banks into their country!

should such a future international peace progress proccess dialoge between countires is to be then israHell turkey saudi arabia eritrea/ethiopia and pkk-rojava-peshmerga-kurdistan could be excluded because of their evil role of their tyranny and the logic of them even not being officialy recognised as countries (or maybe even by then they would already cease to exist before that) but rather occupiers of stolen lands by wars of aggression who occupy arab Palestine land and other neighbouring arab countries’s lands and their natural resources assets illegally from wars of aggression like e.g. Yemen and Somalia afghanistan with daesh and AQAP muslim-brotherhood-extremists and taliban and other plots of the the mossadistic so called “alliance of periphery” with their puppet collaborators alCIAda and MI6 .

all of Western Sahara and its people will be freed from the corrupt dynasty government of morocco’s illegal occupation which has a long history of collaborating with the zionists’s mossad and will be a recognised country by all nations ( hassan II and the mossad were behind Mehdi Ben Barka’s dissapperance / kidnap / assassination !

Birobidzhan isn’t enough for the evil zionists’s obssesion of world domination conquest . . History wasn’t written in ink , history was written in blood

gustavo

There is not exist such a thing like “ISIS plan.” However, there exists something line Israel-USA-NATO plans for ISIS. That is tge correct way of thinking.

Justin

Egypt invites Russia to use its air bases which also border with Libya! Russia will begin bombing in Libya! lol, Russia invited to have bases in Sudan (Red Sea) Egypt (Red Sea, Suez Canal and Med) Syria (Med and blocking pipes from Saudi Arabia) Allied with Turkey (now using its air space and soon perhaps the Black Sea becomes a Russian lake! This means NATO’s missile shield is obsolete!) Oh how the mighty have fallen! Back fired in their face! Israel is crying like a bitch because soon they will need to contend with a United Lebanon and a heavily armed and backed Hezbollah! Finally these Zionist scum get a taste of their own shit!

Starlight

WRONG- Russia has always been close to Egypt and Israel. And to keep the zionists HAPPY- not to fight the zionists.Why do you think Putin voted for UN sanctions against Iran over its nuke program, but has NEVER tried for the same with Israel?

Justin

I know Russia has always been close to Egypt! Im just stating that recently they have told them they can use their airbases which border with Lybia, doesn’t take much to figure out why now does it!

Putin never Vetoed USA’s infiltration into Lybia! nor into Iraq! Simply because Russia was buying time to arm up! I understand that Israel is a country that Russians would never openly go against but that doesn’t mean they arnt letting the Iranians do it!

Its a time for proxies even more so than ever!

Russia now arms Iran! Russia was doing what it needed to do in 2007 simply because Russia was towing the line with the west while oil prices were high! they enjoyed 10 years of oil prices around $140 per barrel!

In the early days, Russia was so desperate that they loaned 13 billion from the IMF and Putin held hands with Bush!

But time passed and Russia armed up ENOUGH!

now… Russia sold Iran s-300’s (very much against Israel’s wishes) Russia has armed Syria with Pantsir-s1’s which counter cruise missiles! Russia knows the Syrian war was an American Israeli war…. if they were pandering to Israel they would not have intervened!

Russia’s presence in Syria (help) now means that Israel is contained! Contained by Lebanon and Syria (Israel can’t get to Iran without suffering a direct attack from just over the border)

Russia has allowed Iran to get up close to Israel! You can be sure Iranian air defences will be placed in syria! Mobile ballistic missiles. A well trained and experienced Hezbollah, IRGC and SAA!

Russia has allowed and enabled this because Russia knew which countries were on the hit list! Iraq, syria, Lybia and Iran! all the while Russia is contained by a missile shield in Eastern Europe that doubles as offensive missile batteries!

Russia may not be against Israel but it is certainly aiding those who are! If u know what is truly going on, then u already know this! The only thing stopping ISIS Israel and the USA from completely fucking syria and Iran is Russia!

Do u understand this or am I “wrong”?

Kira Binkley

I believe you are a hardnosed conspiracy freak. For one, Vlad Putin and Netanyahu engaged before Putin, at the request of President Assad and myself, asked for his intervention into that war-torn country. KiraSeer

Justin

REALLY??? “Vlad Putin and Netanyahu engaged before Putin, at the request of President Assad and myself” What do u mean “and myself”? Who the fuck are YOU? Also ur statement makes NO SENSE! Putin and Netanyahu engaged before Putin?

Ok im going to TRY and assume what u are saying is that Putin and Bibi talked before he entered into the Syrian conflict! Yes the whole world knows this! Also after they entered! But we are sure that Putin would not discuss his military intentions before hand! Maybe Putin was getting info which made him realise that russia MUST enter!

There is no conspiracy when the OBVIOUS is occurring! And that is that Iran is in SYRIA! SAA winning, Hezbollah stronger than ever, Russian bases are in Syria and on the Med. Russia has allowed Iran to enter into Syria for its on geopolitical reasons, not because it hates or likes Israel!

As u know, russia has NATO missile shields on its borders that can also act as offensive curse missile batteries (according to the Russian MOD). Therefore Russia is contained (according to both NATO and Russian MOD)

Since it is geographically impossible to contain the USA then russia s allowing Iran to contain Israel! By doing so, Russia has put Israel (also known as little America) in a tight spot! Therefore deals must be made to fix this dilemma for Israel!

Russia has requested many times for the Eastern European missile defence shield to be removed (that are supposed to be for Iran lol) but they have not been! Russia could remove them themselves but that would men a pre-emtive attack and ww3. So entering into the Syrian war and reversing the plans of Israel and the USA has enabled Russia to be in a position to negotiate!

Israel’s problem with Iranian forces and military hardware on the border with Israel is the ACE up Russia’s sleeve for these negotiations! Because now Israel is contained! Hence why Egypt suddenly asked for Russian planes in Egypt and so too Sudan! This totally surrounds the Suez Canal and surrounds Israel, East, south, north.

Oh dont worry, russia wont attack them but they are contained and Iran, Lebanon, Syria and maybe even Egypt will be the ones doing the attacking IF Israel and the USA doesn’t do what the Russians want done!

All those wars from the past, the 6 day war, the 7 day war etc. there has been about 5 of them! Well they are coming back but with Russia being there also!

this is not a conspiracy! This is the actual outcome of this war! Russia wont attack Israel just like NATO wont attack Russia! But Russia has just check mated Israel! Such a small nation surrounded by muslims who hate them! And now Russia has HELPED those muslim nations so they can say to Israel “how u like them apples? Bitch!!”

Kira Binkley

That explains it. You only “know” what MSM tells you to know. I can’t find your other comment on this article, addressed to me. But you asked “Who the hell are you?” This is my answer: “You are not qualified to know; nor are you worthy of knowing.”

Ayman Hamdy Iskander

Need to support Egypt with weapons now and remove egypt imposed sanctions on USAid

Justin

100% agree! Egypt is a close and good ally to Russia! they are very strategic! The problem is that Egypt is also loyal to Saudi money! But since things have begun to change n the Middle East (the balance of power), Egypt may just be ready to give the finger to Saudi Arabia!

Russian aircraft is Egypt is no different to American aircraft in Israel! everyone wants protection from a super power!

Egypt see’s itself as the next victim! So does Sudan! Saudi BUYS protection from Russia through its military purchases as has UAE’s recent offer to buy s-400’s! Qatar bought 20% of Rosneft everyone who is allied with the USA is buying Russian weapons (sucking up) everyone who isn’t Allied with the USA is wanting Russian aircraft in their country (protection) Iran, syria, Lebanon are united enough to be protected by themselves even though they have Russian bases in Syria!

But if Israel attacks Lebanon, we can be sure the SAAwill help because Hezbollah helped Syria! Russians will arm the Syrians with air defences!

Hezbollah will counter attack with missiles! USA will intervene!

WW3!

Wow …. not isn’t that just obliging the Americans and the French stupendously!

Kira Binkley

Who, exactly, is running Libya, as we speak?

Starlight

Libya is now a chaotic cr-p-hole like so much of South America, and for the exact same reason. And like S America, Libya has plenty of good places for the rich and powerful to live relatively safely.

Libya is now the place where any nightmare of the Deep State can be conveniently hatched. Wahhabi terrror nests are the least of it.

Major french, british, american and israeli mercenary groups are free to base themselves in Libya- where they can construct massive installations and move extraordianry amounts of military equipment- all without comment. All that is needed is lots of cash.

Libya will never be a ‘wahhabi’ nation. But the wahhabis will be free to operate and recruit there if they bring sufficient Saudi reserves. Libya is a conduit for wahhabi terror further down into Africa proper.

Kira Binkley

I don’t think you have a clue about what is going on in the Middle and Near East (Maghreb), KiraSeer

Kira Binkley

Looking pretty scruffy, Ibram!

Ayman Hamdy Iskander

US Need to help Egypts military now.And lift the imposed sanctions on USAId

Ayman Hamdy Iskander

with the added danger of Jihadists crossing the Egyptian border from Libya to join the ISIS backed rebellion in Sinai, Egypt will be taking leading role in fight on terrorism.The US should revitalize its military aid,and lift any sanctions imposed on egypt.
