The SAA and Allies need to cross the river right away, reaching Deir-Ez-Zor and not grabbing land to the East will be pointless.

This is better than fighting the entire kurd nation . The yank bases in Syria and Iraq supporting the separatists can come under attack too .

We have replaced the kurdish commanders the goal is far to important to leave to the kurds they will do has grunts tho. Granted I would have liked more then what they gave me but I can make do with this manpower and equipment.
yes I've known about the offensive for weeks.
I may...have had a hand in the planning of the thing. It was a simple tactic really allow the syrians to draw in heavy ISIS reinforcements and then attack with a full scale coordinated surprise assault, ISIS had no warning no one did, we even kept many of the kurdish command in the dark. ISIS will not be table to reinforce these position quick enough thanks to how dug in they are against the Syrians. The path to the oil fields are going to be quite easy.
It worked like a charm, I used the Syrians like a cheap fiddle.
I was even nice enough to signal it with my bridges comment afew days ago.
The russians have already reacted hence handing over those bridging trucks, of course with their flanks not secure and Deir till not secure. Well mother russia, to little to late.
The syrians can cross but they will be so exposed ISIs will not have a hard time raiding their flanks and slowing them down and killing many of them.
I have already completed my mission by securing an important zone.
The movements of the US have been fairly evident in the last weeks. Not even in the refered to the Kurd forces but also in the refered to the ISIS.
It is obvious how the US and their allies have been maneuvering to have a movement of ISIS troops from Deir Ez Zor to the area of Ma adan, also in the Euphrates, but more to the North. Also it is evident that the evacuation of ISIS leaders would be the reward to them after it.
But do not try to paint the losers as winners. Your ambitions were far higher than what you are doing now.
Just to remember your own words of a few months ago:

(Even said to expect ISIS to push onto that position exactly how they did) back Deir is required for them to spilt Syria so it will collapse.
The SAA cannot do anything about this based on their positions and their lack of forces let alone airborne.
You can pretty much see how this will start to end US backed forces will control that part of syria, Assad will hold onto the other half.

Airstrikes alone will only slow it down not stop it and no new army groups will be arriving there anytime soon.
Really if ISIS wasn't such a useless force, they would have taken Deir by now.

Sure things have to be taken from them but they will retreat whenever attacked now because they cannot handle it anymore.
That is semi right, It ALL comes down to Deir. We want it, Russia wants it.
Without Deir the kurds will become much less attractive for the US and the kurds know this.
Deir is literally do or die for both side, whoever takes it wins the war pretty much.

ISIS can seize Deir they have enough men if the Raqqa force is allowed to flee, Deir Azzor will fall unless ISIS REALLY and I mean REALLY fucks it up.

However, the kurds are fairly pathetic figthers in Tabqa and other places Units like mine had to do the heavy lifting little shits are way to used to ISIS running away.
The turks would be curb stomping them right now if it wasn't for Russia, not much If Assad takes it first well they will not oppose it. They will try and hold onto the ground they do have however and this is where my country comes in. This is why we want ISIS to take Deir Azzor because if Assad guys are still there when the kurds roll in welp...they fucked up. Because the kurds know they can take Deir from ISIs but they will not push Assad because right now he is all that is saving them from the Turks.
Provided they fulfill their task...well they got promised things however if they fuck up we will leave them to the wolves. Cannot stress enough how Deir Azzor is what will decide the outcome of Syria has a country.
So the kurds have real incentive not to fuck this up, I gotta be mia now got me goat fuckers to shoot.

ISIS has taken some points within Deir-Azor and their offensive is on going.
Syrians are closer and closer to losing this war. At this point, Assad is going to lose. Unless someone gets his act together real god dam fast
Daraa is a pointless offensive and Tan-if well that could have waited, sure it's a legitimate target but it's not of dire important.
Once Deir falls and at this rate it's going to, Kurds or FSA will sweep in.
Again tho anyone with a functional mind can see this.

So we will see, currently, I think I'll reach Deir before they will.
Very cute all.

Name one example.
Just one and I will apologize.
One is all it takes.
C'mon, prove me wrong, I dare ya' !!!
JohninMK wrote:Excellent response. Ignore him, keep the words coming.
So eehie, for the avoidance of doubt (in case you don't know, that is a powerful legal phrase in English Law), as you clearly have a limited grasp of the finer points of English and Seig clearly has much better things to do than piss in the wind with you whilst I, as a retired person with time to kill doesn't, am going to spell out to you in words of one syllable what he just said on the key point.
Seig said this in his second, expanded, comment "Yes I work for the United States, I said that in my first post here. I never said in what way nor do I plan to." Whilst that does not exclude the possibility, it does not in any way state that he is, as you potentially slanderously and dangerously for him put it, a US soldier.
I said "You might prove me wrong but I am pretty sure he has never said who he works for. He could be an in country contractor working for who knows who. There are a few options there." which by not excluding US soldiering is pretty much spot on.
Please eehie do not argue with English speakers who may have a better grasp of the language than you, unless you are on much stronger grounds than this. But more important than that I would suggest that you do not make accusations that can put fellow posters at risk.

JohninMK wrote:eehnie wrote:No, I will not be who enlight the Senior Shoe Shiner of the US forces about what is happening.
Russia and Syria are doing a good job fooling you
It is obvious that under your bids to intoxicate, you still see not what is coming. Well, well, you will enjoy it.
I would normally treat a comment like this with the contempt it deserves but as you are clearly delusional which is strange given some of the really good posts you put up elsewhere so surely understand the situation more than you say.
I am not sure how the Russians/Syrians can fool the US, by fool I assume you mean hide an intention or act, when, with the INTEL assets they have in place, it is likely that they know if a SAA asset moves more than 10 feet. By INTEL asset I mean mainly hardware like satellites, various radar, other sensor and camera fitted manned and unmanned aircraft, as well as as probable SF ground operatives. Bear in mind that knowing about something and having the ability to react to that knowledge are two different things.
I would place good money on Seig having a much better overview than any of us who are reliant on scraps from the Internet. Whether and how much he will enjoy it is in the hands of two armies of mainly 'arab' type people who, apart from limited numbers in elite units, are not particularly high quality and unpredictable politicians.
Also I suspect that it is probably a while since he cleaned is own boots, let alone anyone else's.
JohninMK wrote:How about this thought?
It does look as if a possible reason for the SDF strike south to Deir could be to cut off ISIS on the east bank of the Euphrates creating, together with the SAA, another area of surrounded ISIS.
Another is of course that the US saw where the SAA bridging gear was going and wants to stop them getting over the river. As well as the obvious one of cutting the SAA off from the oil fields.
Looking at this map of the whole area, as opposed to the close in ones normally here, was what made me think of the first.
EDIT
Having posted that I then found this. So much for that theory

Those were valid dates with what information I had, however, at times things do not go according to plan.
Yes taking deir is a big deal I never said it wasn't they will get the city, they moved faster to secure then I thought they would.
None of what you posted makes me wrong just means admittedly my time tables were wrong due to failures on the ends of the kurds.
Had the kurds done what was fully expected of them it would be a different story, I cannot account for how well the kurds will performance in situations.
Most of the ISis members in raqqa did not flee so one statement you reposted of mine is accurate, had they been allowed to flee they where not.
ISIS is a useless force but they can be a good road block when required if used right. That doesn't mean they are worth a dam in battle.
Is is true part of the objective is failed the syrians will have the city, those oil fields tho.
The kurds have fucked up many times is which is they are now being told what to do by others rather than themselves.
Assad for the most part will still lose, syria is forever lost to him has a whole country, he will get back parts of it, he has failed his objective to get full control back of syria that does make him a loser in the grand scheme.
I could go on but you reposting old remarks out of context is taxing on my soul well whats left of it.
Yep and they don't have far to go to put themselves between the river and the oil fields.franco wrote:It's a blocking move.
