SAA and Hezbollah are almost retaking Aleppo completely, they're kicking FSA out of the northern party and IS is literally starving in the east.

At the moment the SAA has turned the tide by completey exausting the Rebel logistics with the help of Russian air strikes and has been advancing in all fronts to the point where they even cut off the main and safest supply route from turkey the Rebels had.

At this point the momentum of the SAA is almost impossible to stop without some kind of USA led invasion of syria, using the Saudis and Turkey as proxies.

And the Saudis and their allies have been threatening to invade Syria recently, supposedly even started mobilising with this intent in mind.

>>54798618
Spain is the main support behind the FSA.

>>54799093

>>54799370

The main "battle" was always between SAA and IS.

FSA is only alive because of US support. I remember a case when US spent million training a few guys. Then after they trained them, they joined Al-Nusra.

>>54798937

>main support

Lel, no way. Plus, the Foreign Ministry has been pushing for the needs of talks and open negotiations, including Assad, for a polítical solution since years now. Unlike France and USA that had always been opposed to these negotiations.

Anyway, there isn't a government in Spain at the moment since late December, and it's very unlikely the PP will form (or be part of) of the next government.

We could have split the country into three or four ethno-religious states ages ago and solved all of this, but that would piss off Turkey and Saudi Arabia, so instead hundreds of thousands of people have had to die and billions of dollars have had to be wasted so we can pretend like we worked hard to bring about a change when really we just wanted the status quo of Assad winning.

Our foreign policy is shit. I hope Trump genocides the entire Saud family.

The country is like Afghanistan in the 80s before the USSR collapsed. I'm predicting that Saudis will ensure a wahhabist regime rises once Assad is gone, which may even be a decade away, but there is no way that Bashar can put Syria back together because too much blood has been spilled.

It's merely empty rhetoric that costs them nothing. UAE and KSA have said they're ready to commit ground troops ONLY IF they're a part of a US-led coalition. They know that there is absolutely no chance of the US committing infantry, so they know that it's a hypothetical commitment they'll never have to back up with action.

But they don't kill each other, sometimes they make some agreements to fight IS and Al-Nusra.

If you genuinely think America supports isis you must be on a whole other level of delusional, one not seen since the USSR was around.

No it's not you delusional idiot. Not everything revolves around Russia. Until recently America did not care what Russia did. Some of candidates in the 2012 election were derided for naming Russia as our chief foe. If anything this is a Iran v. Saudi proxy war and both of us are caught up in it. Now please stop cluster bombing villages and learn how to do surgical airstrikes.

Qamishli is an SAA stronghold and has pretty much been a cease fire line since the start.
Al-Hasakah was the front between SAA/Kurds and ISIS until the Kurds swarmed ISIS positions but agreeing to another ceasefire like with Qamishli.

I don't know if the SAA do bombings while the Kurds push forward, but that would sound like a good agreement for the both of them. I wonder if Deir-ez Zor will stop being a pocket before the end of the year.

Yes it is nearing its end, and its almost assuredly going to be Assad as the rebels are collapsing. Once Assad wins whoever gets into office can just focus all the bombs onto ISIS who haven't been making progress in Syria anyway. If Assad doesn't go full retard mode he will only focus on ISIS as well, as the Kurds don't desire independance.

Basically there is no hope for the rebels at this point, who are also really just more Islamists. Based Assad will go win and then we can all sit down and focus on kicking ISIS, Russia will probably help in Syria and if a republican gets into office we can get boots on the ground in Iraq.

>>54802024

Wot?

>>54802201

But desu FSA and Al-Nusra are no different types of warmongers. Plus how would they know how to find their families?

>>54802070
Doubt it. Both SAA and YPG have higher priorities than to push towards Deir Ezzor. Both of them what to push to Raqqa (The SAA at LEAST to Taqba airbase) and before they do that they have to clear North Aleppo. They have at least two more objectives they have to reach until they turn their attention to the East again. The Kurds don't have the manpower to split troops either. Their completely committed to Manbij right now and haven't attempted an offense in Hassakah for months because of it.

The SAA could press from Palmyra, but they still have to take that first. Even then that would just allow them to maybe run supplies to Deir Ezzor. They would need a huge amount of troops to actually move on and clear ISIS to relieve the pocket. Probably not happening this year.

>>54802215
Not even your government denies that we were bombing ISIS. The funny thing is while you make these accusations with absolutely no proof (great propaganda technique btw m8 talk in absolutes when you don't have proof) there are several examples of your government flat out lying about bombing ISIS. So please post one example of US lying about bombing ISIS. Even your government isn't stupid enough to do that. They leave it for trolls on the internet to cast doubt on it among the ill-informed.

At the beginning of Russian intervention they were more concerned with helping Assad defeat the rebels who had took Idlib. But they wanted to sell the intervention as an anti-ISIS operation since everyone hates ISIS.

So you would see Russian videos and news articles like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFxWwAK3zEY

Claiming to bomb ISIS in areas where ISIS doesn't even exist. Or putting up video's saying they were bombing ISIS in Raqqa when they were bombing FSA groups in Idlib.

Basically the priority was stopping the rebels who had just taken Idlib city and Jisr Shugur but to sell it they acted like they were attacking ISIS. They later did switch to bombing ISIS but at first completely lied about it to sell their mission.

That's funny. Pic very much related. You guys haven't don't shit against ISIS. We've regained 1000's of km's of land from them while you have maybe 100km North of Aleppo to show for your effort.

What are you even saying no to? The Kurds were getting btfo by ISIS before we intervened. Within 2 weeks ISIS had completely taken all of Kobane Canton except for 2km^2 of the capital city. Within a month of us helping them they completely reversed their situation and retook all of their lost territory. Then took all of the border with Turkey East of the Euphrates.

They honestly weren't.

No ethnic kurdish lands were lost. There's a reason ISIS took some of their land. It's because it was ethnically Arab land that the Kurds took from Al-Nusra in 2012-2013.

The Arab residents never liked Kurdish rule. So the Kurds withdrew from these lands the second ISIS got close. It was only in Kurdish lands that the Kurds put up a fight.

Even now you barely see them outside of their old borders. They have stopped moving at Raqqa and Deir-zour for a reason. It's not their land.

The Alawites really only control Latakia, and having them just concede to that while the Sunnis take the rest would be a defeat on their front. Infact Al Nusra even suggested that a while back, that Alawites can have their state in coastal Latakia, even if it means Syria becomes land-locked

During Assad's pre-war Syria, he tried to push a full on Arab-only Syria, due to his Arab nationalistic stance. He suppressed the Kurdish people, and tried to Arabize them

You can see their position though, the USA has been strongly and staunchly supporting the rebels since before ISIS even existed (when it was just ISI).

Syria as a state no longer exists. Russia doesn't give two shits about the Syrian people, geopolitics 101. They care about the base and preserving the coastal regions under the control of Assad. The East of Syria is a lost cause at this point. Nothing short of a full-scale Russian invasion (which would be completely unacceptable) can allow Assad to regain control of the entire of Syria, and even then it would be precarious and would fall apart as soon as the Russians left.

Besides, why would he bomb the Turks? Let them take over IS and Rebel held parts of Syria, they will be mauled by IS and held down for years in that quagmire.

>>54797928
Good job starting a shit posting war almost as big as the actual war.

Honestly, the Kurds are going to win territories in Iraq, Syria, and probably Turkey due to the UN forcing the Turks to give up the land. Nobody except for those countries and some irrelevant island nation that thinks it matters really hates or directly opposes Kurdistan. As for the civil war, it's really too much of a mess to tell, but eventually the US is going to deploy soldiers and it's gonna probably be in support of the rebels.

Unlike the US government, the Russian government isn't short-sighted. They realize that without the Syrian government, Syria would just be another Libya. The US is trying to channel IS into the Syrian government in order to make Syria crumble. Once the "moderate" insurgents are defeated, it will be possible for the Syrian government to completely defeat IS.

And after all this time the US says "Assad must go!" They really want another Libya.

The SAA/NDF are making huge gains on every front. It's a matter of weeks before rebel-held area of Aleppo is put under siege, after that it's only Idlib and the IS-held territories left.

The Syrian government will likely have to concede autonomy to the Syrian Kurds, but other than that they will be the inevitable victor.

Question:

Why has the USA spent millions of dollars in funding Syrian opposition groups since 2006? It's almost like they were preparing for regime change.

>>54808294
>A direct attack on Syria will drag in Iran, and therefore Russia.

What? Why would Iran do that? They can't hold the Sunni regions of Syria, not in a million years, and they don't want to. Understand, this is about saving Assad and the coastal Shia regions. Syria is lost. There can be no attack on Syria, only on the Assadist region and the Turkish/Saudi coalition would be careful to avoid that. They would move into Eastern and Northern Syria, establish a "safe zone" and Assad would be forced to accept a de facto partitioning of Syria. His army is spent, Iran has been propping him up for too long and is also spent. Russia has no interest in keeping Assad in control of all of Syria.

You seem to think Russia has some obligation towards Iran. They don't, Iran has been a pariah state for a very long time. They're working together in Syria because their interests happen to align, but Russia does not like Iran. They will not attack NATO for them.

Do you understand that when Queeny dies she will be replaced by postmodern multicultural jihadists that will dominate shariah on whole commonwealth? Just google proclamation of 1982

and the shit he did before the civil war even started

Nah, if that happens we will just become a Republic, like we should have done long ago. After Lizzy dies (God forbid) but it will happen, I think we should abolish any ties to the monarch.

Is this from that Awakening, Opening the Eyes, Standing Up thingie? Shit's kind of uncanny, if a bit behind schedule.

They'd just proceed to war each other. Turkey will destroy Iraq and Syria before it let's Kurdistan exist I'm pretty sure.

Kobane has been pretty much the only western success in this whole debacle, and I'm 100% sure it will backfire when Kurds inevitably refuse to give the land back and go independent.

Tunisia is doing alright

Assad just wants to carve a viable state. Kurds can keep their land.

>Do you think it will come to an end in the foreseeable future?
It will last through the end of this year at least
>Which faction involved do you think will come out victorious?
Syrian government obviously, whether Assad will last after a peace settlement is unclear. The non-ISIS insurgents are being rolled up fast and then it will be Assad vs. ISIS which was the plan all along. The kurds are strong enough they should be able to make a sovereign state or have self rule like in Iraq.

It's not that our government is short-sighted, it's that they make more money off of ruined countries than functional ones, especially when those countries might oppose them.

Moderate rebels of course :^)

Yes and Russia supports Iran and we support Saudi cancer

>>54810552
I'll admit between 2011 and 2013, I thought the rebels were going to win

Then 2013-2016 I was 100% sure Assad is definately going to win
The minute the rebels started fighting each other, it was a victory for Assad

But now as of 2016, seeing Turkey and Saudi possibly sending troops in, I am doubtful
