CrowBat... a number of buts....?????Originally Posted by CrowBat
1. then why even announce this via the Turks..which I think is actual based on the media outlet that released it....as there has been a subtle rumor that there was in fact a "deal on Aleppo" coming out of the rebels themselves....maybe rumors maybe not
2. not so sure after the higher than normal loses from the Iranian side with the tons of money which should have flowed into their individual corruption pockets now going to pay mercenaries instead of their bank accounts
3. truly believe there is a far deeper sectarian violent divide coming that Russia is detecting and does not want to push further due to their very large Muslim population at home....signaled by Mosul moves by Shia militias heading to Tal Afar and KH moving into Mosul a US named terror group that CENTCOM/Obama have not said a single word about
4. not so sure Russia is in love with Hezbollah and need them to remain quiet around Israel which has now a large Russian population...
5. would place Russia as the sole mediator in this region and pushing overall the US to the side which is their overall main goal...
But overall the timing is unusual to say the least...

This statement coming from a country declared by the UNHRC to be committing atrocities....
Syria's Foreign Minister: videos of death & destruction in E. #Aleppo are "made up... without doubt"

WHAT is extremely interesting with this video is that it only proves they are attacking rebels with them on the outside trying to get in....and basically a lot of the shooting scenes with the individual troops are "staged shooting" for the camera....the technicals fire and then are on the move in order to not be hit by return fire...again telling me they are in an attacking mode against evidently a rebel side that is defending well....and still holding what they gained.....will take some time to geo tag the positon of the fighting....
Also interesting is the smoke extraction system on the fired T90 tank rounds exhausting literally next to the turret..... basically giving away the actual tank position.....and clearly providing a line for sight aiming point for ATGMs...even if defiladed one would still see the round exhaust smoke...

Aleppo: UN Gen Assembly should override Russia's UNSC veto to mandate a no-bombing zone. Here's how
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016...e-aleppo-befo#
…
The Number of Causality announced by #Hezbollah in Oct 2016 was 33 Soldiers and 2 Officers, Most of there killed in #Aleppo Recent Battle
Was announced first on 29 October with no follow up for the entire month....highly suspect the number was actually double...to potentially triple due to the unusual number of officers killed that were being reported and a hand count of photos at about 40 that were being posted....which does not agree with JUST 33.
2 days after #ISIS gave #YPG & #Assad 9 villages N of #Aleppo, it started a counteroffensive vs. #Turkey/#FSA, taking 5 villages.
Just like in #Ramadi & despite all US promises,the US-designated #terror org. Kata'ib Hezbollah partps in the #MosulOps
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Qfw7WX_w4Q#…
Also today, a Su-24 performed multiple air strikes vs. rebels near #Aleppo.
If same as yday= #Russian.

NOT a lot of combat videos being posted BUT a heck of a lot of photos of either killed regime fighters and or captured regime fighters...
Bashar al-Assad met with “half-a-dozen” U.S/UK journalists & analysts yesterday.
@ABarnardNYT clearly unimpressed:
http://nyti.ms/2e9GrjR
pt: #Assad:
- Rejects all blame for conflict
- Says U.S backs #ISIS
- Says he’ll be President in 2021
- War crimes accusations are fake
BUT WAIT......
UN Human Rights Council, on #Syria:
- 400,000 killed, mostly by #Assad regime
- Regime responsible for "abomination" of crimes (inc. CWs)
Breaking: UN Human Rights council finds in 1st review of Syria since 2011 that 400,000 people killed in war, most at hands of regime.
Assad denies any crimes. See these summaries, esp of regime prisons:

UN-mandated “JIM” CW inspectors in #Syria get a 2-week extension.
#Russia wants expansion to multiple countries (to divert/delay on #Syria)
BUT WAIT as part of the US/Russian "red line deal"...Russia swore to the UNSC that Syria was CWs free...apparently not......
Russia has postponed #Syria peace talks “indefinitely”
[Gearing-up for an all-out assault on #Aleppo...]

The @UN cannot deliver food to besieged eastern #Aleppo.
But pro-#Assad @NewsAnna1 film-crews use @WFP food aid for themselves instead.

While PMU claims to defend Iraq, they sent 1000s of troops to support #Assad regime in Syria and announced will send more after Mosul battle

Russian pilots can't even land on the floating shipwreck Admiral #Kuznetsov.
via @steel_ukrop
There is a 13 second 2005 video clip of a Russian Su33 attempting to land on the Kuznetsov and cannot stop and goes over the side and the pilot ejects literally in the path of the Kuznetsov....
I love the google translated headline..
"The Su-33 has fallen from the deck due to the dangling rope"
