From my own, first hand experience: thinking this way is a massive mistake. Repeat: massive mistake.Originally Posted by Azor
I doubt you can imagine,
a) what the terminus 'frienship' means in Syria, especially if maintained over the years and no matter what happens, and then
b) what a proportion of 'Assadists' keep various sorts of 'backdoors' for themselves open in the case Assad falls - and thus continue providing info to contacts they shouldn't ever have (or at least aren't supposed to have).
Fascinating - #Iran’s complex but important 25yr relationship with Al-Qaeda = logistical & operational cooperation:

AND Trump does not have a "Wag the Dog" syndrome?????
From NYTs today.....
Trump delights in watching the U.S. military display its strength
And if it boosts his poll numbers and distracts from his Russian connections problem all the better....
AND the side effects of the Trump proposed "Muslim Ban".....
Even Canadians are skipping trips to America after the Trump travel ban...estimated US tourism loses due to travelers not wanting to come due to the US Ban.....
7.4B USDs....and climbing....

Goes to the heart of removing Assad....and those that did in commit crimes against humanity and war crimes....slowly ever slowing then Syria will heal itself...
The removal and trials of those that did commit war crimes and crimes against humanity under the IC in Hague would go along way in assisting the rebuilding...
We are seeing here in Europe Germany...Sweden and other countries actually charge those found to have been war criminals and actually sentence them...and more Syrian/Iraqi refugees are coming forward with even more info....giving at least those refugees a sense that the rule of law works....
We deny Su-24 bomber deliveries to #Syria.

Taken from the SWJ article
Redrawing the Map: The Shifting Human Terrain of Syria
by Gabriel White
An interesting small detail that is highly important in understanding this latest large scale ethnic cleansing.....
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ia-towns-evacu...
Never once in the entire article are the words...sectarian ethnic cleansing used....Qatari royal family members used as leverage in Syrian population swap
Fates of 26 members of hunting party, held hostage for more than a year in Iraq, used to negotiate deal to move residents from Shia and Sunni towns.
The deal was finalised in recent days after nearly two years of negotiations between one of Syria’s main opposition groups, Ahrar al-Sham, and Iran. The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah and Qatar have also been central – both taking a stake five months ago when members of Doha’s ruling family were offered up as a component of the swap.
The agreement, and the regional choreography surrounding it, marks one of the most sensitive episodes of the Syrian war. Iran and Hezbollah have been determined not to cast the moves as a demographic swap, while Ahrar al-Sham and members of the Syrian political opposition insist that what has been proposed cannot be characterised otherwise.
As the Guardian reported in January, Iran had earlier tied the future of both Sunni towns to the fate of Fua and Kefraya. While the plan at its essence involves relocating four local populations, the intimate involvement of regional powers underscores how deeply embedded the conflict has become in a broader proxy war for power and influence.
The involvement of Bashar al-Assad’s regime has meanwhile been negligible, with Iran and Qatar seeking the release of 1,500 prisoners from Syrian jails, but not including regime officials in discussions.
Two Qataris, both members of a falcon hunting party that had crossed from Saudi Arabia to Iraq where they were captured in December 2015, were released earlier in the week as the deal neared implementation. Sources close to the negotiations have told the Guardian that urgent efforts to secure the fate of the remaining men led to the plan being finalised.
Interesting is it not????
And no mentioning of Kurdish ethnic cleansing in the Sunni Arab areas they have taken over....confirmed by HRW....
Ethnic cleansing is ongoing all over Syria....
This ethnic cleansing exchange is now stalling as it appears Hezbollah and Iran and Assad are not holding to the signed agreement as many in FSA thought would happen....
Syrians stuck around Aleppo as evacuation deal stalls: monitor, activists
http://reut.rs/2pC9iDG
Assad as usual is behind this move as he was not happy about it and it left him out of the deal....as did it leave the Russians out of it...Thousands of Syrians were stuck in and around Aleppo on Saturday as a deal to evacuate two Shi'ite villages in return for Sunni rebels and their families being allowed to leave two besieged towns near Damascus stalled, a monitor and activists said.
Rebels and civilians who had left Madaya near Damascus on Friday sat outside rows of coaches in government-held Aleppo city, waiting to move onto their final destination of insurgent-held Idlib, pictures sent by a pro-opposition activist showed.
Meanwhile residents and pro-government fighters who had left the two rebel-besieged Shi'ite villages in Idlib province waited still in insurgent territory on Aleppo's outskirts to cross into the city, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
The British-based Observatory said the delay was because rebel fighters from another town included in the deal, Zabadani near Damascus, had not yet been granted safe passage out.

Assad troops have still not allowed Sunni fighters and their families to leave the last Sunni town.....
BUT this is what awaited the Shia fighters and their families prior to being stopped AND it was from Assad forces....
Syria #Assad-forces shelling western outskirts of #Aleppo city were thousands regime loyalist from #Idlib (Fuah & Kafarya) wait for access
This ethnic cleansing swap is now going South in an extreme hurry...sad actually even if an ethnic cleansing...
Unfortunate reports of a remotely detonated car-bomb targeted civilians and fighters evacuated from Fu'a and Kafrya outside Aleppo, Rashdin.
Syria #TahrirSouri explosion hit bus station in#Rashedeen #Aleppo where Fuaa&Kefraya residents waiting to be moved,dozens killed&injured
WHAT is extremely sad is the fact that the Sunni FSA rebels guarding the safety of the Shia fighters and their families...were also targeted and killed and wounded in this VBIED strike...
A car bomb hit waiting civilians from Fuah & Kefraya (and guarding rebels) just west of #Aleppo city.
Dozens dead.
A terrible crime!
CORE reason...the Assad regime forces are not holding to allowing the last Sunni town to be evacuated as agreed to....
JUST what the heck...did someone actually use a regime vehicle as an VBIED which was under complete regime control all the time????
Syria pro-regime media first say regime was able to send aid for people in Rasedeen ......then say car exploded was carrying aid.
Initial reports of ~100 people killed in the attack.
Activists reported many HTS/AhS fighters killed and injured in the blast allegedly came from "a parked milk car" dispatched from regime end.
THIS is important to inhale and fully understand.......
Regime blames HTS of course.
But HTS fighters are among the dead.
Activists tell me,the regime postponed the entrance to attack the refugees
These activists are highly accurate in their assumptions that Assad was behind this attack as it was Assad forces that did not let the second Sunni town evacuate as agreed to and thus held up these refugees from moving onward as agreed to...
Huge casualty toll from the Aleppo terror attack. Many victims amongst Fuah/Kefraya civilians and rebel fighters.

That's a most absurd claim:#Hezbollah won't intentionally murder Shiites loyal to Hezbollah—that's absolutely harām.
