    Considering amounts of absurdities launched by Russians, Assadists, IRGC and 'friends', I do not even understand why anybody bothers to 'find out' what are Russians about to do in Syria?

    Putler is obviously curious at using this 'crisis' to distract from the mess he's created at home. It's as simple as that.

    In such situations, there's no 'plan B': like Nikolay II in 1914-1917, or Galtieri in 1982, he'll 'ride the wave' as long as it goes - and then the entire house of cards is going to collapse in a big bang...

    BTW, for those 'confused' by all the reports citing 'SAA' did this', 'in cooperation with NDF' and all other sorts of similar hogwash... or prone to 'disbelieve' my reports on the number of IRGC-run gangs of Hezbollah and Shi'a Jihadist gangs in Syria, and low numbers of 'Syrian' units still fighting for Assad (or, better said: on his side, not really for him)... well, see the illustration below.

    Add the insignia of the NDF, SSNP, BPM and other militias to that illustration, and then compare what you get to see on so many of photos supposedly showing 'SyAA/SAA' or whatever else, that are launched by regime-fans on Twitter, FB, etc.

    Namely, it's the presence of all of these groups - and not some illusion about that famed super-turbo-wunderwaffen Russian air farce - that has enabled 'the regime' to went on offensive after (once again) reaching the brink of collapse. Without them, the regime had - at best - approx the same number of combatants like the FSyA alone (means: less if one adds all of the IF, AAS, and JAN, and not to talk about the Daesh)...

    (Note: I purposedly named this file 'SyAA Units'; as a declared and dedicated sarcast, couldn't but do so because - with one exception - not one of units in question is from Syria...)

    Is the UNSC, and Obama complicit now in the ongoing genocide in Syria since the information is readily available for fact checking......

    Jaish al Thuwar are a bunch of frauds they're not Rebels, most of them were part of "Syrian Revolutionary Front" led by conman Jamal Maarouf

    These guys were around in Idlib & were eventually kicked out because they kept stabbing Rebels in the back every time they tried to progress

    If they were still around in Idlib. Then Idlib would never have been captured by rebel factions. Now they're back in Aleppo to help Assad

    Nasrallah: Saudis want a sectarian war between Sunni-Shia in the whole region

    Nasrallah: The Shia should be careful not to make it Sunni-Shia, this will help the Saudis who killed Al-Nimr & want sect war

    Nasrallah: Saudis are source of takfiri ideology which create the problems all over the world. ISIS = Saudis

    Nasrallah: There is a region called Arabian Peninsula which through tyranny was named Saudi; there are oppressed people there

    Nasrallah: Why are you going to the details but missing the obvious? Saudis are the mother,father,inventor of takfiri groups

    Nasrallah: This support and actions by the Saudis must be stopped

    Nasrallah: The greatest jihad today is standing against Āl Saud

    So is Nasrallah in the name of Iran calling for a true war against KSA???

    REMEMBER Putin's UNGA press conference where he stated that he did not want to get involved in a "religious" war?????

    Well he now has one...........

    The situation of the JAT is anything but that simple: it must be observed from several sides.

    Firstly, the JAT is no 'reincarnation' of Jamaal Ma'arouf's Revolutionary Front or something of that sort. It's commander is Abu Ali Bard, who is running it together with few other officers that used to serve with the RF, but otherwise, there are no confirmed links between these two organizations.

    Secondly, as much as at least that part of the JAT that decided to remain 'loyal' to Oblabla and SDF is now de-facto 'US mercenaries in Syria' (the other part recently defected and went fighting the Daesh on the eastern side of Azaz corridor; at least as many fighters simply went AWOL into Turkey)... it must be observed that the JAN is doing whatever is possible to destroy any FSyA unit that has any kind of semblance of independence from it.

    Assassinations and hijackings of FSyA commanders in Idlib and Aleppo continued through October, November and December last year. Body of at least one of them was found in late December, with obvious signs of torture.

    JAN knows it has got very little support in Syrian population, and that it couldn't survive without Qatar's support. That's why it is always affraid of FSyA units uniting and turning against it - and that's the reason they're doing their best to weaken the FSyA and causing problems to it.

    An 'openly pro-US' group like JAT is more than 'thorn in their side': JAN cannot tollerate any such presence in Idlib or Aleppo because it would show locals that there is an alternative to it (the JAN).

    That said, it's a nonsense that the JAT is now fighting the JAN on the western side of the Azaz corridor (like quite a few - but foremost the SDF and the JAT - are claiming). The JAT did a massive mistake when it permitted the USA to move it from its bases in south-eastern Turkey into the Afrin enclave and then obeyed the order to attack the Azaz corridor in the first place. It's fighting only FSyA units there - instead doing what it was supposed to do: fighting the Daesh in Raqqa area.

    Further reality that nothing Kerry and Obama state to the press means anything......remember their statement...."we have a milestone".....THEN..."we will bring up with Putin the deliberate killing of civilians via air strikes" ONLY after massive social media pressure on the massive killings that were AND or still ongoing coupled with a deliberate starvation campaign.....EXACTLY the same Russian tactics we have seen in eastern Ukraine......

    WELL this is the reality......that apparently Kerry and Obama are somehow not seeing.....

    Oblabla's 'policy' for Syria remains one of keeping everybody weak - and the USA 'out of that war, except for a lil bit'.

    Appears as if the Sunni Front States are moving ever so slowly towards open war not a proxy war in Syria and Yemen and Obama/Kerry have absolutely no further say since their retrenchment from the ME actually began four years ago.

    interested to see what Turkish moves are....

    Iran missiles hit 1500 yards away from US ships and State Dept thinks execution of Saudi cleric raises tensions

    BUT WAIT the Iranians stated they did not fire any missiles BUT WAIT they declare they have the right to continue developing nuclear capable ballistic missiles and to violate the UNSC resolutions on those same missiles....

    http://m.state.gov/md250934.htm

    So how is exactly that Obama Syrian strategy working these days since Iran is heavily engaged inside Syria along side Russia
