2024 Syrian opposition offensives - The first Syrian rebel offensive against Government forces since March 2020

Apparently Assad, just..gave up.

He refused Iranian aid, ignored advice that HTs was planning something.

He was asked to open up another front against Israel and refused and basically just was placing all his eggs in the normalize ties with the gulf states basket.

Assad literally just gave up. Apparently.

Decided to throw in the towel when the pressure was on.
> Gets tired of the bullshit that is ruling a Middle Eastern country.
> leaves

That's one way of doing it I guess. More graceful exit than most get.
 
The rapidity of this somewhat suggests a backroom deal which, if true, means Russia will quietly sign deals to confirm the status of these bases. Don't expect the rebels will push too hard given the subsidies from the land alone will probably keep their government afloat long enough to make it permanent. Barring outside influence of course.
If Assad really did just give up, it'd be hardly surprising if Russia did some dealings with some new faction. Especially since there's still something like 4 rival governments in Syria, and the assorted other factions. If your current ally won't keep going, just pick another retard from the pile.
 
The big difference
Is that this is your sportsball team so you will shit out any cope for why it's ackshually different between guzzling your doctor prescribed HRT and dilating out your wet dreams about sailors with one hand.

13 marines got suicide bombed in Kabul at the end of that fiasco, you wretched troon. The last thing the US did in Afghanistan before leaving was bomb a car full of children in retaliation because they thought it was an IS-K group. There's been nothing even close (so far) to that conga line of disaster capped off with footage of people getting crushed by landing gear and falling off of planes they were holding onto during the airlift in this entire Syria episode, faggot.

That's the big difference so far, shut the fuck up trying to retcon reality because the memory chaffes your rotting fucking stinkditch, schizo.
 
Benny with eyes on the prize.

Between this and Afghanistan I wonder how many other stable countries whose government seems secure but are actually susceptible to a blitz like this? More fun to think about, what first world country would be most likely to fall to something like this? Two common thread is majority support for the rebel faction outside of the main city, and the military buckling. A lot of the regime's troops either sympathize with the rebels, apathetic enough to not fight, or pragmatic enough to know they wouldn't win and the rebels aren't interested in killing the low rank grunts.
Literally happened in Ukraine, to outsiders, out of nowhere.
 
Turkish forces in Syria continue their offensive against the Kurds.
I don't think they fought Assad at all during this.
In the immediate aftermath of Assad's government collapsing, it is being reported the generally Turkish backed Syrian Interim Government has started attacking Kurdish forces in a northern part of Syria.
Turkey intends to eliminate the Kurdish presence at least west of the Euphrates in the near future (Manbij and adjacent areas will be occupied by the SNA). Areas east of the Euphrates are also under threat.

Someone needs to have a talk with the Turks.



ROFL in fact!


I mean, Ba'athism is straight up Arab nationalism combined with socialism. You do the math. People and ideologies getting called 'fascist' or 'Nazi' is so overdone, but Ba'athism is the exception in that it quite literally is the Arab flavour of fascism / National Socialism.

Yup, escaped former nazis helped create the arab extremist/terrorist movements from the beginning. Hell, hey were the friends of he nazis before and throughout WW2.


Thats the cope take that modern historians make. The regions always have, always are, and always will be in a constant state of fighting each other. No magical division of the map, no matter how perfect, will stop pajeets or arabs from fighting each other.

Yup. I've argued before that the "British lines on a map" and other cope is just nonsense. Nobody could have did a better job because it isn't just religious subgroups and ethnic ones as well. There is no way to do it "correctly" with creating 100 different micro states. And then it would just replace continual civil war with normal war as the states battle over who has or controls what, and resources etc. Until their culture advances out of the stone age, that is, grows up.. Nothing is going to bring peace to the region. Not when full of people who can't stand anyone not part of their group/religion living freely around them.
 
As if I couldn't hate this Zionist scumbag further. Always amazes me how neocons slurp Israeli dick while having literal coreligionists who get slaughtered by their own policies in the Middle East.

Really shows who the real God of Evangelicals is.

Assad met with Putin.

Putin informed him that he was going to allow Syria to be thrown to the wolves to save the west some face when Ukraine formally yields a good chunk of their land to Russia.

For allowing that to happen, Assad got assurances he will get to live in exile instead of getting the Gaddafi special.
 
Yeah dude that clings to power through civil war and bombs his own cities "just grew tired".
He was just a pacifist hippie. You guys just don't get it. He would cry every night with his moustache in his wife's bosoms about all the suffering around him. His conscience was HEAVY.
 
You could only be an American lol

No European nationalist still thinks that the welfare queens in question are "refugees". In Europe, if you believe the Syrians, Somalis and Afghans have a morally just reason to be there, you are a leftist.
I'm not American and I have no idea how you've reached the conclusion that I'm sympathetic towards third world invaders arriving in Europe.

The point is that jewish NGO's are the ones bringing them here...

He had been fighting a war of survival for over half his time in office. He wasn't ever able to decisively win, he was on the west's permanent shitlist, and Russia and Iran no doubt made it clear his survival depended on kowtowing to them forever, while completely ostracized from the rest of Arab Street.

I can totally believe he just decided it wasn't worth it anymore-so long as his family got to safety, he wanted out.

He was ostracized because he fucking gassed his own people.

He left because he looted and raped the country for all it was worth.
