While the situation on Aleppo is slowly improving the US is dropping bridges in the northeast of Syria in an obvious attempt to isolate areas that US intends to control for the foreseeable future.
With some time Allepo will be taken by SAA and their allies but US will continue with their agenda and that is to rend Syria apart. It remains to be seen how this will play out in future but with the eventual elimination of the terrorist bands who are in control of areas of Syria I think that SAA will turn to the clearing out of that north east quadrant. That will put them in direct combat with US armed forces who are on the ground in ever increasing numbers. It will be an interesting exercise in diplomacy if it comes to direct and verified combat between SAA and the US Army. Of note will be the question of will RuAF continue to support SAA if that Rubicon is crossed. My feeling is yes, it will, but with the ever changing situation in the entire AO the only absolute is there are no absolutes.
Come on, Aus. No need to clear out that northeast quadrant ipso facto, right? Let dirty yanks dream about partitioning Siria. They tried the same in Iraq and in the end they could not keep it. Yeah, they are still around there wreaking havoc, but any hopes of controlling that country is gone. Syrians and Russians do not need to go after yanks right now. They only need to wait them out. Perhaps send a few tools to groups who oppose them to keep them always on the move. Like everything else they have done everywhere else, they will in the end leave, because they have no legitimate reason to be there. Yanks are sick with immediateness. They crave the adrenaline of constant movement. They live for the flavor of the moment. They have no long term vision.
The israelis have now ordered their subhuman quislings to go to full scale proxy war against Syria and double down on their full spectrum dominance strategy against Russia.
In a “propaganda” sense,that is important. But from a “practical” sense,its nothing. The agreements on aircraft flying information is not canceled. Only the setting up of the “joint” center. That wasn’t going to happen anyways. It was just smoke and mirrors to trick Russia with. The “cancellation” of a fake project is no loss that I can see.Besides it was to be in Geneva anyway. Just how far from the actual conflict could they get it,and still “claim” it would serve a purpose in the fighting.

“Washington “has never exerted any real pressure on Jabhat Al-Nusra, done nothing for delineation to succeed and taken no action against its militants,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement Monday, following the US decision to suspend cooperation on Syria.
Besides failing to deliver on its part of the deal, the US were hampering Moscow’s efforts to stop the terrorists, the Russian Foreign Ministry said, calling Washington’s decision a “reflection” of the Obama administration’s inability to meet the key condition for Russia-US cooperation on the Syrian peace process.
“We are becoming more convinced that in a pursuit of a much desired regime change in Damascus, Washington is ready to ‘make a deal with the devil’,” the Foreign Ministry said. For the sake of ousting Syrian President Bashar Assad, the US appears to be ready to “forge an alliance with hardened terrorists, dreaming of turning back the course of history.”
While Jabhat Al-Nusra, a designated terrorist organization, has been known as an Al-Qaeda affiliate for many years, Washington “is not in a hurry to separate US-oriented anti-government forces from it,” Moscow points out. On the contrary, even though Al-Nusra has never been a part of any peace deal, Washington “covers it with the shield of opposition groups which formally confirmed their participation in the cessation of hostilities.”
“The Russian diplomatic mission came under mortar shelling on October 3. One of the mines exploded on the embassy area near its residential department. Fortunately, no one was wounded. The diplomatic mission sustained material damage. Another two mines went off next to the embassy.”
The Ministry said the shelling was conducted from the Jobar municipality controlled by al-Nusra Front and Faylaq al-Rahman terrorists.
“We view this shelling of the Russian embassy as a consequence of actions of those who, like the US and its allies, provoke the violent conflict in Syria, flirting with militants and extremists of different sorts.”

US failed all the agreements on a cease-fire in Syria, allowing the terrorists to hold the next regroup and resupply, the official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry, Major-General Igor Konashenkov. “Do our American partners is time to publicly recognize that almost all fostered and controlled by them” opposition “in Syria – an integral part of one umbrella brand:” Al-Qaeda “and” Dzhebhat en-Nusra “” – asked Major General.
State Department spokesman Mark Toner said that the US administration have mixed feelings “irritation, anger and sorrow” from its decision to cease cooperation with Russia on Syria. “We came out of this agreement, which we have achieved with Russia, in the state of a certain irritation, anger and sadness, because we still believe that this agreement, if it were implemented, it would be the best way forward – to the political process, political transition, political decision “, – he said.
October 3 US announced the termination of the participation in bilateral channels of communication with Russia on Syria.
“They claim that their aim in Syria – the fight against extremism, but they did not achieve any major goals in the fight against IG more than seven months, and went so far as they are forced to ascribe credit for the US successful operations” – he said at a briefing the press secretary of the White house, Ernest.
US considering diplomatic and military measures to solve the conflict in Syria, including unilateral, while Washington will cooperate with the members of the International Support Group Syria in addition to Russia, said State Department spokesman Mark Toner. This toner does not rule out the resumption of talks on Syria “under the appropriate steps of Russia.” “We have not closed the door forever, but we need to see action mode or Russia, or both, that would give us an opportunity to think that there is a reason to start over again,” – said Toner.
The Pentagon hopes that Russia and the US agreement on aviation safety in Syria will continue to operate, despite the differences between the two countries, said a spokesman for the US Defense Department Peter Cook. “We maintain a mechanism to avoid conflict – a memorandum of understanding with the Russian in terms of safety. We believe it is important to keep it even though the differences with the Russian, because we believe it is not only in the interests of the coalition, but also in Russia’s interest to keep these channels of cooperation “, – RIA” Novosti “.
US Secretary of State John Kerry has accused Russia and Syria in the rejection of diplomacy in an effort to win a military victory. “The Syrian regime and Russia together, seems to reject diplomacy and try to win a military victory”, – said Kerry.
US authorities are considering the possibility of direct intervention in the armed conflict in Syria on the side of the opponents of President Bashar Assad of using attacks on targets of the Syrian army to force him to “change approaches” to the regime of cease-fire, reports The Washington Post.
According to the publication, last Wednesday at a meeting of the so-called “Committee of Vice” in the White house, US security officials – representatives of the State Department, the CIA and the Joint chiefs of Staff of the US armed forces – “have discussed the application of the limited military strikes against the regime,” al-Assad in order to force him to change his approach to the cessation of hostilities, to operations in the region of Aleppo and the prospect of serious peace negotiations, reports TASS.
As the newspaper writes, with reference to one of the participants in the administration discussions “options under consideration, remain classified include strikes on the runways of the Syrian Air Force using cruise missiles and other long-range weapons launched from aircraft and ships of the coalition “led by the United States. According to the same person, “one of the proposed ways to circumvent longstanding objections of the White House against the attacks on the Assad regime without UN Security Council resolution – this is a secret drawing of such attacks, without their public recognition.”
On the question of whether there can be curtailed diplomatic relations with Washington, the president’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov said: “I have yet so do not exaggerate, though it is obvious that the US withdrawal from the dialogue on the cease offensive operations in Syria we perceive with regret. hopefully still in the presence of political reason and for the continuation of contacts in particularly sensitive areas, necessary to maintain the general peace and security regime. we understand that contacts are continuing and will continue along the line of our military on the subject to avoid any risk of the action ” -. Kremlin spokesman stressed
US rejection of dialogue on the Syrian regime matters greatly complicates the situation. “This output is, unfortunately, confirms the inability to differentiate between de facto terrorists and the so-called moderate opposition”, – said Peskov. “But this does not mean that the Russian side intends to give up its plans to combat terrorism and to assist the armed forces of Syria in their anti-terrorist operation”, – he assured the press-secretary of the Russian leader. Earlier, a spokesman for the White House Josh Ernest said that “the United States and Russia have nothing to discuss more in terms of an agreement on Syria.”
The US government has failed to fulfill an agreement with Russia, as Washington has no clear position on the Syrian issue, said Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Maria Zakharova. According to her, the White House should take the blame for the failure of negotiations, and not to make statements that sound like a threat. She noted that Washington is trying to impose its point of view Moscow and force Russia to go in the direction favorable US. She added that Washington refuses to listen to Moscow’s position.
According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, Moscow had to deal with people, to change their perspective on what is happening in Syria almost daily, that in her opinion, was the main reason why the United States was unable to perform the agreement, under the which they have subscribed.
The number of settlements that have joined the reconciliation process has increased to 714. The number of armed groups that have declared their commitment to the terms of a cessation of hostilities, it has not changed – 69.
Over the 51 days recorded violation of the cessation of hostilities by illegal armed groups in the provinces Aleppo (33), Damascus (12) and Hama (6). For days earlier -. 49 violations
Russian FSI and Syrian Air Force opposition armed groups, have declared a cessation of hostilities and to report to the Russian or American centers reconciliation information about their location, strikes are not applied.
In Syria battery delivered anti-aircraft missile systems S-300, the official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry, Major-General Igor Konashenkov. “Indeed, the Syrian Arab Republic delivered to the battery of anti-aircraft missile system S-300. This complex is designed to ensure the safety of the naval base in Tartus and located in the coastal zone of the ships of the Russian Navy task force from the air, “-. He said
Konashenkov added that it is unclear why accommodation in Syria S-300 caused a stir in the West. “Recall that the S-300 – is a purely defensive system, and no one is any threat. Moreover, previously, as you know, in the region there was a similar system in sea execution – the complex “Fort”, which is equipped with the Guards missile cruiser of the Black Sea Fleet “Moscow”, – he stressed.
A spokesman for the US Department of Defense, Peter Cook, said that the Pentagon does not know the reasons because of which sent the Russian anti-aircraft missile system S-300. “Russia stated that their main goal in Syria – the fight against extremism. But none of the terrorist groups do not have aircraft. In this regard, I wonder what is the purpose of sending the system. Perhaps Russia has a better explanation for this “, – said Cook.
Ankara would not want to destabilize the situation in Syria after the collapse of the truce has led to a serious conflict between Russia and the United States, said Turkish Defense Minister Fikri Isik. “Negotiations are over, and with them the ceasefire. We do not want a serious conflict between Russia and the United States in Syria. In the case of such developments in Syria, Turkey, as always, will defend their interests “, – he said.
The Guardian reported that the British Prime Minister, Theresa May, and the country’s defense minister Michael Fallon announced the decision to withdraw its troops from under the Human Rights Convention for the periods of military conflicts and special operations. Fallon later confirmed this information, said RIA Novosti. According to the minister, out of the convention is needed to relieve soldiers from false accusations. The agency notes that, according to military experts, the suspension of the Convention can improve the combat capability of the troops – without fear of investigations, they will do better.
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein said that the situation in Syria Aleppo requires new initiatives ,: “I firmly believe that it is time for strong leadership and bold action, as well as the fact that the UN Security Council should WITHOUT WARRANTY any further delay to adopt the criteria to deter members from using the right of veto, when there are serious concerns that may have been committed war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide. ”
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called on Russia and the United States to resume talks on Syria.”

The September 19 attack on a UN humanitarian convoy in Aleppo was “a well-prepared hoax”, according to a group of independent military experts attached to the International Syria Support Group (ISSG).
On September 19, a UN-Syrian Arab Red Crescent convoy carrying humanitarian aid for the Aleppo province was hit by a strike, according to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). As a result, 18 of 31 trucks were destroyed and at least 21 individuals were killed. According to the report seen by RIA Novosti, the experts studied the video recording made by the Russian drones accompanying the convoy, where “a car with a trailer clearly carrying a large-caliber mortar” can be seen. They also noted that al-Nusra Front-controlled militants were active in the region, when the convoy was attacked. The experts analyzed the footage and photos of the attack in the media and came to a conclusion that “the attack” was staged: in particular, the cabin of one of the trucks was not affected while its cargo was destroyed. In addition to that, the holes left by the alleged munitions in the trucks were covered with rust, and the road was not affected — which would have been different in the event of a real airstrike. The degree of damage contradicts that inflicted by an airstrike: the blast in a confined space would at least have overturned the trucks with cargo while explosions would have left shards in the walls of nearby buildings. But judging by the photos, the trucks only lost its canvas, their tires remained intact, the cardboard boxes remained in their places, and the nearby buildings have no cracks. The experts were also puzzled over the crater allegedly left by the purported airstrike. “The central part of the crater pulls objects in instead of scattering them around. Is it a black hole?” “In summary of this preliminary analysis, we can conclude that we are dealing with a well-prepared staged or ‘fake’ attack,” the report reads. A diplomatic source told RIA Novosti that this report was sent to representatives with the United States who “expressed their disagreement with the conclusions.”
While the situation on Aleppo is slowly improving the US is dropping bridges in the northeast of Syria in an obvious attempt to isolate areas that US intends to control for the foreseeable future.
With some time Allepo will be taken by SAA and their allies but US will continue with their agenda and that is to rend Syria apart. It remains to be seen how this will play out in future but with the eventual elimination of the terrorist bands who are in control of areas of Syria I think that SAA will turn to the clearing out of that north east quadrant. That will put them in direct combat with US armed forces who are on the ground in ever increasing numbers.

My feeling is yes, it will, but with the ever changing situation in the entire AO the only absolute is there are no absolutes.

According to the publication, last Wednesday at a meeting of the so-called “Committee of Vice” in the White house, US security officials – representatives of the State Department, the CIA and the Joint chiefs of Staff of the US armed forces – “have discussed the application of the limited military strikes against the regime,” al-Assad in order to force him to change his approach to the cessation of hostilities, to operations in the region of Aleppo and the prospect of serious peace negotiations, reports TASS.
As the newspaper writes, with reference to one of the participants in the administration discussions “options under consideration, remain classified include strikes on the runways of the Syrian Air Force using cruise missiles and other long-range weapons launched from aircraft and ships of the coalition “led by the United States. According to the same person, “one of the proposed ways to circumvent longstanding objections of the White House against the attacks on the Assad regime without UN Security Council resolution – this is a secret drawing of such attacks, without their public recognition.”
On the question of whether there can be curtailed diplomatic relations with Washington, the president’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov said: “I have yet so do not exaggerate, though it is obvious that the US withdrawal from the dialogue on the cease offensive operations in Syria we perceive with regret. hopefully still in the presence of political reason and for the continuation of contacts in particularly sensitive areas, necessary to maintain the general peace and security regime. we understand that contacts are continuing and will continue along the line of our military on the subject to avoid any risk of the action ” -. Kremlin spokesman stressed
US rejection of dialogue on the Syrian regime matters greatly complicates the situation. “This output is, unfortunately, confirms the inability to differentiate between de facto terrorists and the so-called moderate opposition”, – said Peskov. “But this does not mean that the Russian side intends to give up its plans to combat terrorism and to assist the armed forces of Syria in their anti-terrorist operation”, – he assured the press-secretary of the Russian leader. Earlier, a spokesman for the White House Josh Ernest said that “the United States and Russia have nothing to discuss more in terms of an agreement on Syria.”
The US government has failed to fulfill an agreement with Russia, as Washington has no clear position on the Syrian issue, said Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Maria Zakharova. According to her, the White House should take the blame for the failure of negotiations, and not to make statements that sound like a threat. She noted that Washington is trying to impose its point of view Moscow and force Russia to go in the direction favorable US. She added that Washington refuses to listen to Moscow’s position.
According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, Moscow had to deal with people, to change their perspective on what is happening in Syria almost daily, that in her opinion, was the main reason why the United States was unable to perform the agreement, under the which they have subscribed.
The number of settlements that have joined the reconciliation process has increased to 714. The number of armed groups that have declared their commitment to the terms of a cessation of hostilities, it has not changed – 69.
Over the 51 days recorded violation of the cessation of hostilities by illegal armed groups in the provinces Aleppo (33), Damascus (12) and Hama (6). For days earlier -. 49 violations
Russian FSI and Syrian Air Force opposition armed groups, have declared a cessation of hostilities and to report to the Russian or American centers reconciliation information about their location, strikes are not applied.
In Syria battery delivered anti-aircraft missile systems S-300, the official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry, Major-General Igor Konashenkov. “Indeed, the Syrian Arab Republic delivered to the battery of anti-aircraft missile system S-300. This complex is designed to ensure the safety of the naval base in Tartus and located in the coastal zone of the ships of the Russian Navy task force from the air, “-. He said
Konashenkov added that it is unclear why accommodation in Syria S-300 caused a stir in the West. “Recall that the S-300 – is a purely defensive system, and no one is any threat. Moreover, previously, as you know, in the region there was a similar system in sea execution – the complex “Fort”, which is equipped with the Guards missile cruiser of the Black Sea Fleet “Moscow”, – he stressed.
A spokesman for the US Department of Defense, Peter Cook, said that the Pentagon does not know the reasons because of which sent the Russian anti-aircraft missile system S-300. “Russia stated that their main goal in Syria – the fight against extremism. But none of the terrorist groups do not have aircraft. In this regard, I wonder what is the purpose of sending the system. Perhaps Russia has a better explanation for this “, – said Cook.
Ankara would not want to destabilize the situation in Syria after the collapse of the truce has led to a serious conflict between Russia and the United States, said Turkish Defense Minister Fikri Isik. “Negotiations are over, and with them the ceasefire. We do not want a serious conflict between Russia and the United States in Syria. In the case of such developments in Syria, Turkey, as always, will defend their interests “, – he said.
The Guardian reported that the British Prime Minister, Theresa May, and the country’s defense minister Michael Fallon announced the decision to withdraw its troops from under the Human Rights Convention for the periods of military conflicts and special operations. Fallon later confirmed this information, said RIA Novosti. According to the minister, out of the convention is needed to relieve soldiers from false accusations. The agency notes that, according to military experts, the suspension of the Convention can improve the combat capability of the troops – without fear of investigations, they will do better.
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein said that the situation in Syria Aleppo requires new initiatives ,: “I firmly believe that it is time for strong leadership and bold action, as well as the fact that the UN Security Council should WITHOUT WARRANTY any further delay to adopt the criteria to deter members from using the right of veto, when there are serious concerns that may have been committed war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide. ”
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called on Russia and the United States to resume talks on Syria.”

The September 19 attack on a UN humanitarian convoy in Aleppo was “a well-prepared hoax”, according to a group of independent military experts attached to the International Syria Support Group (ISSG).
On September 19, a UN-Syrian Arab Red Crescent convoy carrying humanitarian aid for the Aleppo province was hit by a strike, according to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). As a result, 18 of 31 trucks were destroyed and at least 21 individuals were killed. According to the report seen by RIA Novosti, the experts studied the video recording made by the Russian drones accompanying the convoy, where “a car with a trailer clearly carrying a large-caliber mortar” can be seen. They also noted that al-Nusra Front-controlled militants were active in the region, when the convoy was attacked. The experts analyzed the footage and photos of the attack in the media and came to a conclusion that “the attack” was staged: in particular, the cabin of one of the trucks was not affected while its cargo was destroyed. In addition to that, the holes left by the alleged munitions in the trucks were covered with rust, and the road was not affected — which would have been different in the event of a real airstrike. The degree of damage contradicts that inflicted by an airstrike: the blast in a confined space would at least have overturned the trucks with cargo while explosions would have left shards in the walls of nearby buildings. But judging by the photos, the trucks only lost its canvas, their tires remained intact, the cardboard boxes remained in their places, and the nearby buildings have no cracks. The experts were also puzzled over the crater allegedly left by the purported airstrike. “The central part of the crater pulls objects in instead of scattering them around. Is it a black hole?” “In summary of this preliminary analysis, we can conclude that we are dealing with a well-prepared staged or ‘fake’ attack,” the report reads. A diplomatic source told RIA Novosti that this report was sent to representatives with the United States who “expressed their disagreement with the conclusions.”
