Syrian War: News #18

"YPG Cells Assassinate Field Commander Of Euphrates Shield Force (+18 Video)."

The Kurds are being trained by the Israelis to do these kind of things, I wonder why Turkey does not do the same thing to the Kurdish commanders? I think they will start doing it now.


There is a video in the link that is very graphic, so please be advised.

Javlin missile captured in Syria exposed in Army 2018 expo in russia.

So now they can analyze the "MIGHTY" javlin

AHAHAHAHAHA

Guess they don't need Ukraine afterall to get them the systems.

Let's wait ! Maybe they will send them some f-35 or B-2

I don't think that Russia needs the F 35 or the B-2, they are just old Soviet technologies dressed up to make money for the US elites. The F-22 would be nice.

The Russian MoD shows off what they claim is an American Javelin ATGM at a defense expo/forum today, claiming they found it among ISIS fighters in Syria. Turns out, it's actually a French ATGM, which was sent to the FSA. Whoops!

Totally agree with. We know that there is zero chance the Ukrainians will get the F 35 but the Israelis will. Could you imagine the shit storm(LOL), if the Syrians with the help of Russia shot down an Israeli F 35 over Syria and it was mostly intact with little damage, the heads of the Zionists/Neo-Cons/US assholes would explode LOL.

I am not a Turkey propagandist here, I am a Turk and it is our stance...

My understanding of the Turkish "invasion" of northern Syria was to prevent PKK occupation and control of the area in absence of Syrian government control.

If that is truly the case then the Turks should be happy to stage a measured withdrawal letting Syrian government forces take over the areas they occupy... preventing the PKK from holding those areas instead and using them as staging points to attack turkey from...

if the Syrians with the help of Russia shot down an Israeli F 35 over Syria and it was mostly intact with little damage, the heads of the Zionists/Neo-Cons/US assholes would explode LOL.

The only Israeli aircraft over Syria seem to be over American held areas pretending to be American aircraft... otherwise they use standoff weapons from well outside Syrian airspace... so how effective do you think they think the F-35s are?

F35 is a joke and we knew it all along. Israelis shield the coffin really by placing it operationally below F15. 

Long story sort, USA industrial/manufacturing capabilities plummeted in early 70s and there is no turning back with the current economic model.

Russian MOD back at it again... That is not Javelin. Why is PR of Ru MOD so bad i just do not get it. Last month they posted naked girls on instagram by mistake, before that they posted video games as proff of US and ISIS coop. Before that photos of building destroyed by RuAF in Raqqa as US destruction. Like there is no any other building leveled to the ground by US, they just had to put those that they claimed to destroy year earlier in suspected Baghdadi meeting... Like someone is intentionaly working to undermine Ru MOD from withing and no one is getting fired by now after all those failed.

But yes, there is a reason why Turks won't get their f35 after they decided to buy S400.

Best way to scatter nonsense of invisibility and invincibility is to shut it down.

it has been done already(F117)

I know that the F-35 won't be effective and that is why I said "imagine".

I think the purpose of the F 35 was put money into private hands(not for military use but personal use), the craeter of the F16 called the F 35 a lemon 5 years ago. I think the US will keep their expensive toys away from Russian weapons, just imagine if Russia was given that $1.$ Trillion, Russia would have build bases on the moon and planet Mars.

You are quite right in diagnosing the situation but also quite wrong about treatment proposal...

Since the beginning of the war, every single government hater, be it fighter or civilian, is sent to Turkish controlled areas and it is not that easy to hand over....

Two main points MUST change in those who are in charge of Syria:

- Neutral stance, Syrian government should normalize in a way that it will be able to assure country won't become a strategical leverage for any anti Turkish power.

- Reformist stance, Syrian government will reform, not pretend as if it does....

I read somewhere that it looks like the IAF will not be ordering more F-35s but will be going for more of the latest specification F-15, the ones with, amongst other upgrades, the outside hard points made active, that I think Qatar have ordered.

Read in the other thread that there are lot's of Russian Navy ships in the Mediterranean Sea.

Now in Med Sea:

FSG Vyshniy Volochek
FSG Grad Sviyazhsk
FSG Velikiy Ustyug
LST Orsk
LST Nikolay Fil'chenkov
MS Turbinist
MS Valentin Pikul
SS Kolpino

Interesting.... and what sort of conditions from Syria will you bow to?

What sort of reforming demands will Turkey capitulate to?

I rather doubt the Syrian government are expecting to walk into territory currently held by Turkish forces... like US forces just walked into places held by ISIS.

The point is that the territory in question belongs to Syria and is currently illegally occupied... do you want to hand it over, or do you want to fight for it?

Unlike the terrorists, Assads forces will have modern ATGMs and modern MANPADS and fairly decent air support...

If you want to make Syria fight for its land back, do you think they would refrain from supporting PKK forces inside Turkey?

I realise you think you have a say in Syrian affairs but that does not mean you do... they can be just as pig headed as you can...

Completely up to you of course... you can make it easy or you can make it hard... whether Turkish forces remain or withdraw Assads forces are going to have to fight for a bit to make the rebels think the negotiating table is their best option...

Put up just out of interest as to a different view. Looks out of date and suspect to me.

“FOREIGN SPECIALISTS ARRIVED IN SYRIA TO STAGE CHEMICAL ATTACK: RUSSIAN DEFENSE MINISTRY.”

“According to the information that the Russian Reconciliation Center for Syria received today from the residents of the Idlib, foreign (English-speaking) specialists arrived in the Hbit settlement located in the south of the Idlib zone of de-escalation for staging a ‘chemical attack’ using chlorine-loaded missiles,” he said.

Russia knows the location, why not hit them right now?

https://southfront.org/foreign-specialists-arrived-in-syria-to-stage-chemical-attack/

my opinion is if Russia and Syria want to avoid another US staged attack, they need to strike the locations of these specialists and the chlorine tanks. Doing so, they will prevent a chemical outbreak that gives reason for west to attack.

As soon as they hit the chlorine tanks, the rebels and West will claim the Syrians or Russians dropped them in the first place. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Than try to capture both the chlorine tanks and the specialists in rapid raid.

Here the "victims of the chemical attack".

I did not post for warmongering, rather I pointed out that Assad cant fix everything with hard power. In fact this thought is the reason why country experiences hell on earth for almost one decade.

I definitely dont think guys in Kremlin will let Assad clash with Turkish forces without a serious series of talks in order to settle things. But there is a reality, Syria is not a place that 4 million of refugees would like to return at the moment. Yes, those lands are not Turkish and neither claimed to be, but if Turkey hosts 4 million of Syrian refugees most of which really affect the Turkish population, then Turkey has to have a say about this issue.

Furthermore, almost half of Syrian lands are in the hands of Turkish number one enemy. That completes the spice of the meal already on extreme heat.

The first point in my previous post, in my opinion, does not need any further explanation. If you wonder about the second, which you misunderstanding it as a "capitulation" I can talk about it a little more.

As I said, before all of these events and definitely after them there were/are a big crunch of Syrian population that are openly against Assad and his way of governance. Actually this big crunch was provocateable enough to start a war within Syria. And Assad just let it begin by sieging cities and towns to death.

Now, this is an issue that still remains today. Syrians here must go back Syria but the problem is they do not want to hand themselves over to a guy that wants to finish them off. Number one example is a Syrian farm worker in my grandparents village from Manbij. He just goes to Turkish controlled areas and never cross Assad controlled area.

Second issue is that Syrian army drains away as war continues and becomes a militia like organization. Almost half of Assad allies are irregular forces. The reformation of Syrian army is required together with reformation of government. These changes have to be made in coherence and should involve reconciliation like procedures.

Assad should let people form legal parties. Bloody hell Syria still has a single party! I dont even mention the need for atmosphere that fair elections can be held.

New constitution should be accepted and transition government should be formed.

I do not say Assad must go sort of things, in fact he may stay during transition period, in which he should not have extensive authority but definitely he needs to be proven as elected by comprehensive elections.

I do not think these are capitulation terms and in fact these are necessary for long term stability in Syria. Otherwise Syria will remain as it is -a shithole- and will contiously provoked by many different powers.

In my opinion, Turkish presence will end through a soft but fast handing over process to undoubtedly elected and legal government of Syrian Arab Republic.

Faster these happen, faster Turks will go back home. Other options are not good for neither side...
