Thanks for the timely updates on war.
Thanks too for all those play their piece for peace.
As so often, Canthama over at Syrian Perspective says it best:
“… both Turkey and KSA are trying to imply they will invade Syria to fight ISIS, the world knows is a lie, Turkey want to hold the YPG from connecting Kobani to Afrin and if possible hold some Syrian territory under their favorite terrorist.
KSA has no army, they hire 20 countries mercs to fight in Yemen on their behalf because their soldiers are useless, sending a KSA army into Syria means only one thing, popping up ISIS army, that is what KSA is probably trying to do.
Both won’t work, for different reasons…1st Russia is willing, I mean almost desiring Turkey to take this decision, to invade Syria. Turkey, without NATO backing, would be in very bad situation and at mercy of Russians bombers and missiles, and people forget Iran has a defense pact with Syria against a formal foreign invasion, which if Syria desires they could ask for, so Turkey, though a powerful country, has no means to fight Russia and Iran, without NATO saying. Though Merdoghan is crazy, this emotional move would only destroy him.
KSA is a piece of joke, they are burning reserves at a $15-20Bi/month die to the oil price, inflated budget, support to terrorism, the criminal war against Yemen civilians and now being invaded by Yemen and those Provinces are most likely not collecting taxes at all, so all in one, money will run short for KSA and wonder how they intend to pay more mercs…”
And now to the real agenda. Canthama again:
” Turkey, KSA and Israhell are putting all their coins in a free State of Kurdistan in Iraq, they want Barzani to sieze power in a way to try crippling Iraqi Government, and create a buffer against Iran, now a common enemy of the 3 countries.
The ME conflict is far from over, the fact Syria held the ground changes it all, now Turkey, KSA, Qatar and Israel are running against time to minimize their losses, Barzani is their only hope to minimize their losses, and yet no one know the reaction from Iraqi to all this.”

Thanks.
Here’s an interview with one Vijay Prashad that has shed some light on various aspects of the conflict for me – U.S. role in Syria destabilization, desastrous consequences of U.S. regime change operations, stability of Assad government in Syria, Saudi Arabia as principal U.S. ally in the region, importance of KSA gas station as U.S. weapon, KSA support for terrorism since the 1960ies, Turkey and ISIS (starting from 16:20), Turkish war against the Kurds, cultural diversity in the Middle East, Turkish hardcore nationalism, pressure on Kurds to assimilate and renounce cultural identity, Kurdish political movements and the Turkish Left, progressive values in Turkey, reasons for military U.S. approach to things. A very good interview!
The Empire Files – Examining the Syria War Chessboard (Jan 26, 2016) [23 minutes]
If Russia controls the air over Syria, then it should not be possible for Turkey/America to airdrop supplies (within Syria’s borders) to the Terrorists, as depicted in this brief military review video.
Russia has Radar in Syria, anti aircraft missiles – S 300s, S400s, as well as Fighter Aircraft. So what’s up?
Either this Video is incorrect, or the Russians are incorrect. So which is it?
As best we understand, the Anti-Fascist Alliance of Russia, Syria, Iran, Hezbollah, & portions of the Iraq Government (which permit Russian overflights, and Iranian access), are Turning the Tide, and winning the war. They claim to have cut the land route supply corridor to the terrorists in North Western Syria.
The Zionist American Oligarchs may not permit the Turkish Army to directly provoke a much larger confrontation, by moving their army into Syria, if they are sure the Russians will make a Stand, as they did at Stalingrad, and in Novorossiya. However, if the Turkish Puppets are ordered to directly attack Syria, and its allies, the Russian Leaders will be forced to make a decision. To run, or to stand.
The Russian and its anti-fascist Allies’ Stand in Syria, as I wrote shortly after September 30, 2015, is for all the marbles. This is the fulcrum which determines the fate of Humankind. This is where the evil Imperialist new World Order is rolled back – or not.
This point needs more explanation. The Russian Air Corps, and growing support forces, the Hezbollah, and the Syrian Government and its valiant Army, have nowhere to run to. The Russian Armed Forces cannot evacuate in time. They know that. Russia cannot run. Therefore they will not run. Therefore, it is unlikely the Turkish puppets will be ordered to enter Syria.
Recall – that the Iraq Government, weak and (still), semi-occupied by American Army, was quite clear on its insistence that No Turkish Armed Forces are welcome in their country. In that case, the Turkish Army (at least partially) withdrew, (or most likely, drastically trimmed the size of their intervention).
It would help if all the American participants at this website prepare Leaflets to explain this Key moment to our neighbors, and Leaflets with Signs and Demonstrations would be even more helpful.
