Yup. Remember that phrase ''We'll be in Moscow before Christmas'?

Well SAA probably will be in Moscow...for medal ceremony.

#AlQaeda #JFS (#Nusra) released New video accusing #Erdogan of making a Deal with #Putin on #Syria

Youth Housing district under SAA now. This is fast stuff.

reports that local groups in Azaz asking YPG for help to kick out Turkish backed Al Qaeda groups from the city. #TwitterKurds

^^ this will probably hold the Al Bab offensive by Turkey. Buy SAA some time to clear Aleppo.

The number is probably in direct proportion to how loudly Kerry is screaming for a ceasefire...

   SAA in Aleppo these days be all like:

This really is delightful to see, definitely worth the wait.

Master, save us!

Erdogan RPZ....

Sort of report on that airstrike Coalition did on SAA in Deir el Zour on Sept. 17 - http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-world/national/article117752313.html.

Interesting part for me:

"U.S. Air Force Brig. Gen. Richard A. Coe, who led the investigation, said Tuesday that Russians had been kept waiting for 27 minutes when they used the hotline to call Sept. 17 and warn the U.S. military that it was bombing a Syrian military unit.

The usual U.S. military point of contact for the Russians was on another side of a base, Coe said. Transcripts show that the Russians hung up. When they called back a few minutes later, the officer still wasn’t near the phone. They waited on hold until he showed up."

And:

"Australian, British and Danish aircraft took part in the airstrike alongside U.S. aircraft, which included F-16 fighters, A-10 Warthogs, F/A-18 combat jets and numerous drones, Coe said.

The aircraft let loose with 34 precision-guided weapons and 380 rounds of 30 mm ammunition, Coe said. A U.S. investigation following the attack could not arrive at the site and relied on aerial footage, confirming only 15 deaths but believing there were more."

And:

"He was watching a full-motion video of a tank, and in his personal experience he had never seen ISIL with a tank,” Coe said, adding that others at the air operations center in Bahrain noted that Islamic rebels had captured an army tank days earlier, overruling the dissent."

This is a link to the redacted report. What a screw up! But no-one to blame lets learn the lessons. Worth the read but may increase your blood pressure.

Russian diplomacy at its best
They're still talking to Turkey after all the latest news. They need to let the professionals sort it out, enough with the cr@p.

There are reports that a temporary ceasefire will be announced to allow civilians to leave east Aleppo, it is a result of Russ-Turk talks

Long range missiles launched over Lebanon. Target seems to have been a Hezbollah ammo depot and some transport. Not particular people this time.

yala shabab, c'mon broders, lets drink for Aleppo





^^ whoop whoop what's this Iraqi militiaman holding?

Great progress by the SAA. I wish they could capture the remaining pocket in a few days (unlikely, I know). Western leaders and their propagandists are going to be screaming about 'massacres' more and more.

By next week it's over at this rate. They've waited a month or two for this assault, no point in making it wait longer.

IF alqaeda indeed is making videos pointing that Erdogan made a deal with Putin over Syria
that does not benefit them , it means nothing more ,nothing less just another solid confirmation
of an alliance that existed before between ERdogan and Alqaeda. And they know trying to pressure Erdogan to return back to their side..  


Whatever is the case , Erdogan will be isolating Turkey from the world if he start a new direct offensive against Assad. to reverse Syrian army gains in Aleppo or block them from Capturing IDlib or any action of direct attack on Syrian army. IF erdogan had any brain left he will disconnect from any alliance with any "Rebel" or terrorist groups in Syria and go back to
reality ,since Turkey will have no future without any ally or friend. Europe don't like Turkey
no one there like Erdogan. and he have zero chance to join Turkey the EU. and US new President
which is Islamophobic and have praise for Putin ,will not support Erdogan actions in Syria. So eventually Turkey will have to choose to be the new North Korea of middle east and align with ISIS and Alqaeda and cut relation with US ,and Russia , or align with Russia/US policies for Syria , and completely stop its support for terrorism.. and get the hell out of Syria.

Well, like Jebediah Springfield said: ''Noble intent imbiggens even the smallest of men''

Does anyone have a rough estimate on how many troops will be freed up in Aleppo as soon as the city is liberated?

They could at least try and pretend better.
