As long as they don't move to Europe or the US, I could give a fuck less. Self-removing kebab is a feature, not a bug. And the moderate and radicals are all members of the same dysfunctional tribe. We could glass them and lose nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Hezbollah reigns supreme over Arsal mountains

>>34635728

Sure. Were his teeth being removed by an Assad prison guard at the time?

That said, I want to know more. If USA aided AQ directly there's some seats going to be warm. And if this was the Obama govt doing it, we can expect to hear more because Trump will love denouncing it. If his guys were behind it then good luck getting a dent in.

Personally I DO struggle a bit with the idea of Osama-killing Obama making deals with AQ.

>>34635801
like US politicians care who they support as long as it contributes to their geopolitical goals , they would support ISIS if it wouldnt cause such public outrage that it would politically hurt them

>>34635801
Al Qaeda , ISIS and such organizations are no serious threat to US ,only usefull tools

>>34635251
You are now citing a Hezbollah owned publication as proof of Hezbollah's victories. This is literally the same shit as what happened in Zambadi and it does not in any way make it true.

Second they have every reason to lie about their loses and to over emphasize their enemies loses. Hence it is more like 1:2 in terms of losses.

Third, the pocket being attacked was estimated to have 400 militants total. With 200 surrendered and 143 dead, there should be nothing stopping Hezbollah from taking the rest of the pocket. So why has their advance slowed?

>>34635728
Go back to /pol/ with your propaganda noise you blatantly Assadist shill. In /k/ we demand a higher burden of proof, as we are interested in the conflict and how it is not fought, not in who wins it.

Not speaking for anyone else. I already knew the US were supporting at least one syrian rebel group, which failed spectacularly. It's hardly news. We also know they are supporting the SDF although frankly I don't know what they have received of the promised weapons help so far. But direct US aid to Al Quaida this side of the Russian campaign in Afghanistan not something I recall having heard of. So I ask questions. If you have hard proof I am interested in hearing more - from a more reputable source than twitter accounts.

-"No my son, I was a Hezbollah lumberjack. I killed trees."
-"You killed trees. But daddy, there are no trees in the desert!"
-"Not any more, my son. Not any more."

Hezbollah soldier studying on the front line

>>34636353
Educate me, is there something about Shi'a Islam that permits studying and science? Do they not subscribe to the "always interpret Quran literally" idea?

>>34636407
nothing permits them ,but its unusual for soldiers to study on frontlines ,especially in ME

>>34636407

I didn't bother to do a line count but there are hundreds of universities in Iran. And they have a Shia majority.

What I am curious about is how he managed to stuff books into his backpack. All ME backpacks I have had a glimpse of so far seemed pretty small, and I assume there's stuff in them for starters.

when did Middle East threads turn to shit

>>34635918
Why are you getting mad about him posting twitter links? You must be quite new to these threads if this triggers you so much.

>Go back to /pol/ with your propaganda noise you blatantly Assadist shill. In /k/ we demand a higher burden of proof I think this is one of the most cringe worthy statements I've read on this site in a while desu senpai.

>>34635918
Also, to add to what I said here >>34641852
If you're so mad about what he posts, why not post shit yourself? Or you can take what SG and others post, and form your own opinions instead of screaming "shill shill" like most sound adults would do.

>>34641878

Jesus I'm tired this morning, excuse my bad structure.

>>34641779
Slow threads usually turn into circlejerks, soapboxes, ideological fights or shitpost dumps.

You're better off getting info from livemaps. Hell, even /sg/ is more interesting because that cesspit, while similar to this thread in its current state, is livelier enough that you get all sorts of shit. Just don't forget to take everything coming out of there with a grain of salt. It's a shame /sg/ doesn't give much fucks about weapons and military movement though.

>>34642440
yeah I might just stick to live maps, what happened to 5 star general? he was a good source for mostly unbiased news

>>34635302

#treelifesmatter

>>34642449
He's still around adn was posting a fair bit in the last thread. These threads are still good although occasionally on a slow day you end up with this shit

>>34642449
>>34642479
Forgot to mention, take everyhting that Syrian General says with a grain of salt. Occasionally he posts something good but he often just ends up shilling for pro-Assad forces

>>34642449
He still pops by. Fatigue just set in for most of the thread goers because progress in the wars is still slow by their standards, and IS, the more interesting shitstirrer in this shitfest, has receded in nearly all fronts in the Levant.

By the way, I guess the SAA is also pushing along the Euphrates and Kurdish territory to get to DeZ. That's actually pretty smart of them for once. With the Suknah offensive crawling, opening another front to the north keeps IS defenses stretched, and IS is also be too busy keeping the Kurds at by.

Also, did anyone catch news that HTS stormed the AAS HQ in Idlib? And HTS checkpoints in Idlib were carbombed?

Two questions. What kind of trees are those, and where does the water come from? I'm aware of basic underground irrigation but the water has to come from somewhere.

>>34639951
They get all the rejected stuff from other countries like Vans hats, magpul, and of course baofang radios that none of them know how to program.

>>34642486
At least he posts shit though, like god bless all these people complaining about stuff being posted, but very few of them will post anything at all.

>>34636544
He obviously found those books on some corps and uses them to wipe his ass.

>>34643925

While I could totally see that happening it still implies SOMEONE would carry a book into the field for reading material.

>>34646148

No. The shia govt has far too much trouble on its hands to even think about what is going on outside Iraqs borders. Between being assfucked by the US on a daily basis, having ISIS playing Minesweeper and Whackamole all over Baghdad, the possibly seceding kurd area, Turkey and Iran dancing on its borders, and a just plain continously pissed off sunni majority not cooperating at all, what power does Iraq have? The money from their oil is going into Swiss bank accounts and half their politicians are probably on the take with foreign countries. Right now the Iraqi army is celebrating its Mosul victory. When they wake up one morning the wages to pay the army will just one more thing to 'govern'.

>>34646148
With the installation of democracy in Iraq, the US inadvertently gave Iran the puppet it always wanted

>>34646915

Democracy? If the US had created actual democracy in Iraq the Sunnis would still have been the governing faction. And the US didn't want that, it would have made the whole war against Iraq look pointless and denied them the power they now have over the Shias.

>>34646405

I read the first one. Good read, but it was kind of cute how the journalist seemed to assume that the US did not have a representative in the camp, Does he really think he can go anywhere, including to the bathroom, without US Intelligence knowing every detail?
