Bruh, you act as if Barzani's/PDK are the only element of Iraqi Kurds that contributed to the succces of the KRG. You should know that that's definitely not true. There are a lot of other politicians.
First of all, at this moment the best (in terms of effectiveness of rule) politicians aren't PDK, the best military strategists DEFINITELY aren't PDK. 90% of the respected generals are not PDK. Economically, the PDK has a lot of leverage, but non-PDK were more innovative in that region, because of the 90's dual administration where the PDK had crowded bordercrossings, and non-PDK didn't.

Basically Iran and Hezbollah kept Assad from collapsing, Iran restructured the whole SAA army to one fitted for this civil war. Then Iran had a deal with Russia to really support Assad in order to remain geo-political allies after the Iran deal was signed.

Aleppo has been in a stale battle of attrition for years so far with very few gains in territory. The Islamic Front or IF (which is what commands rebel-held Aleppo) has been falling apart with all the Russian airstrikes and recently withdrew all their fighters from Mahattah (which is now being contested by ISIS and SAA. The Rebel grip on Aleppo is starting to weaken, and within a few months, the SAA should capture the whole city with the help of Russian air support. Keep your eyes peeled.

False dichotomy.
You have a lot of options, the good options just don't get supported by the interfering states and groups.
Your post is also just plain disgusting western Orientalism. You never have been to any middle eastern country except for a holiday Antalya right? Get out of your superiority complex, your argument could be used against early 20th century Europe as well.

What I'm saying is that no political actor is doing the responsible thing about Syria. No Syrian deserves to die for political goals of interfering states. The first thing we need is de-escalation, ceasefire and a Syrian political debate. Except every side lives under the illusion that it can win, so the war goes on.

And please don't respond with communist-tier shit like "my magic brand of democracy just hasn't been tried yet".
And the situation in europe was vastly different: There already existed something resembling nation-states with a strong national identity, so democracy was a lot more realistic than it is in the middle-east.

So all these Syrian men should just fight for Assad huh? Or they should all go fight for Al Nusra? Or Shamiya front, or ISIS, or whatever random militia.

Middle-east after the WW2 also had 'strong states with strongmen', that just led to coups, lost wars, economic stagnation etc. So the strongmen argument is falsified by empirical historical evidence. There goes your theory according to popper.
I have said nothing about gommienism. It is just fallacious to claim stuff about countless unobserved options based on the limited amount of observed options.
My point is that many of the arguments given in these threads plainly suck. We could make something of this thread by properly discussing stuff. That way it's not just useless time consumption.

Sure, the fact both the US and the Soviets were fighting proxy wars in the whole middle-east surely has nothing to with the fact that it was unstable as shit, that totally is the same as every single country failling to become a real democracy after the Arab spring, a time in which there were no two super powers using these countries as battlefields.
How about you start with proposing an option that we could discuss instead of complaining about people not doing so?

Zeit released an article today featuring this vox video
http://www.vox.com/2015/10/14/9525469/syrias-war-a-5-minute-history
that's simply wrong in everything it says.
"first shots fired by assad"
"hundreds of iranian officers on the ground"
"obama administration horrified by assad administrations atrocities" which never existed (gas) or are echoed more loudly by moderate memes, real jihadists and also kurds
"US program stall out at first" as in it manages to train and keep 5 people, the rest defect to ISIS/Al Qaeda and take their stuff with them
"assad uses chemical weapons" just NO wtf how do you make a video like this and never even read UN reports
.... holy fucking shit theres so much wrong with this. I'm so incredibly made at mainstream media, i really don't know what to do with this penned up anger. Zeit is supposed to be a format that does deep research and thinking into the things published.

You can propose as many options as you want. They are all useless unless they include a way to either get the warring factions to the table or a way to kill all or most of them off.

Yeah, except it's exactly the opposite and it's to hell with the latter, especially the refugees. Those who are fighting are the only people that MATTER. Discussing things with people who don't want or even can't to take up arms means exactly nothing, as their opinion might as well not exist, if they won't enforce it.
Jesus, it's like you think that if you'll have a cup of tea behind a round table with a couple of philosophers, all militants will just look on that, dump their weapons and go elsewhere.
>>53819419
Hafez's regime was able to do that, Bashar was too incompetent for that and got criticized by the top Iranian generals for his stupidity.

According to Tom Cooper, IRIAF tried to keep 60 F-14s operational at any time during the war. But since 1986, this number reduced to 30 F-14s, of which only half were fully mission capable. Overall, Cooper states that Iranian F-14s shot down at least 160 Iraqi aircraft during the Iran-Iraq War, which include 58 MiG-23s, 23 MiG-21s, nine MiG-25s, 33 Dassault Mirage F1s, 23 Su-17s, one Mil Mi-24, five Tu-22s, two MiG-27s, one Dassault Mirage 5, one B-6D, one Aérospatiale Super Frelon, and two unknown aircraft. Despite the circumstances under which the F-14s and their crews had to operate in Iran during the eight-year-long war against Iraq, it is still the premier fighter in the Iranian Air Force. The aircraft continued to operate without any support from AWACS or AEW aircraft, without even a proper support from the Ground Control Intercept (GCI). It faced an enemy that was repeatedly introducing new and more capable fighters, radars, weapons and ECM systems in combat and was supported by no less than three "superpowers" (France, the USA, and the USSR). Their crews were also permanently under heavy pressure from the regime in Tehran. That it proved as successful in combat is a result of strenuous efforts of IRIAF personnel and immense investment of the Iranian economy.
I would say Shiites tend to be more competent then their Sunni counterparts but the Iraqi "special forces" don't hold up to the performance of Hezbollah, Iran and the Houthis (against KSA at least)

The very fact that western media pushed against Assad so hard for so long should have told everyone all they needed to know.

It's not right. He has the right for it though. Or at least you have zero right to condemn a man that fought to death and probably lost comrades, not having been on his place.

A Sunni dominated Syria would not allow Hezbollah to be supplied by Iran making Assad's survival necessary to Hezbollah's existence.
>>53821552
I do, I was living here then and I still am.
And no, not a lot, not even close to syria numbers fled to EU states, and not a single country in EU accepted them with open arms, more to the point you bombed us again in 99 after that war.
Serbia alone in that war hosted more than 700k refugees, those who fled in europe were more like 10k.
It's not even fucking close dude, look for official numbers.

>>53821668
>>53821868
You're both right really.
Hezbollah has had to forfeit most of it's Sunni support to ensure it's supply lines.
>>53819663
Problem with Sunnis from what I've seen in person is that they don't like orders much. I remember one time our squad had two Sunni tribesmen(not part of the original team) in Dammaj and we came under fire from a 50.cal while moving equipment from a depot to a outpost. We already knew what to do find cover,PK guy lays covering fire and two guys move from cover to cover to get close enough to eliminate hostile fire. Everything went smoothly until our guests decided charge the gun men. Our squad leader kept shouting for them to find cover and I shit you not they screamed:"we will show how the grandsons of bin walid fight"ackbaring all the way. About half an hour later we eliminate the 50.cals crew we found one of them on the side of the road with a piece of shrapnel in the leg and the other died from bleeding out from a bullet wound that hit his abdomen. Tl:Dr Sunnis can't into small unit tactics.

eh brother, it's everywhere in the media. they always start off by saying:
a) Putin promised to bomb ISIS
b) Putin's a lying bitch cause he's not bombing ISIS
BUT, they alway fail to mention that a) is wrong. he said they'd bomb ISIS AND OTHER TERRORISTS. Bombing ISIS at this point would be pointless, since there's barely a frontline with the ground forces (SAA) and also you don't want to fight everyone at once. just logically.
Just heard this podcast in bavarian radio (fuck bavarians - prussian here - radio documentaries can be OK though). they started exactly like this. later they had an 'expert'.
>reporter: so putin is going in without any strategy and will be boged down?

there's no place for enlightened despots once other countries start smearing you. Enlightenment matters little if others use the shadows your light casts to blame you.
Assad has done a lot to appease others. he released political prisoners, he let go of basicly ALL of Syrias power (the new constitution allows him as well as the baath party to be voted out of power)... yet still western media cry for him to be strung up on the nearest crane like saddam

The point is that we can struggle forward supporting one side or another. While there are countless other strategies not being pursued or even thought of, all in name of geo-politics, the new military religion.

So, if there is ever an uprising in SA or returning islamists backed by some rich SA families try to take up arms - everything will be over very quickly, since the army is in no fighting condition.
so tribes can be bought off and stuff. how can you ever trust anybody in your vicinity, when everybody is basically up for sale? no wonder there are just barely functioning arabic states.
