Was the intent to remove Assad before a new US President got into office? Or to cause Trump a problem at day 1 as a new civil war with a battling Assad in charge?

In the broad scheme of things very few military operations in the history of Syria are widespread well known. It is not decisive ground. Apart from the legend of Yarmouk where the Byzantines were supposedly crushed by an invading Arab army from the south.

The battles there are precursors or sideshows to sweeping events occurring elsewhere.

It was Russia’s war to lose, and they lost. If Russia had bought off the SAA leadership, then they would have fought, and Russia would still have its client state in the Mediterranean, linking up with its ally Iran.

Turkey was simply more competent and willing to spend money on geopolitical imperatives (instead of embezzling it/buying properties in London).

The Turko(Neo-Ottoman)-Russian conflict just entered a new stage. Russia has failed in Armenia; they are failing in Georgia; they have lost Azerbaijan and thus the whole southern Caucasus. Iran is a nut ready to crack, and then the Turkic world will be united along the southern Caspian as Azerbaijan links up with Turkmenistan.

This leaves Russia massively vulnerable along its southern border with a newly ethnonationalist Kazakhstan growing in population and power. The Northern Caucasus will easily flip for Turkey.

The Russian Federation either solves its corruption and competence crisis (tricky with the brain drain ongoing) and commits to Iran and the southern Caucasus (and that means money), or it loses this century. China will take Siberia; the Turkic world will swallow the Caspian and the Black Sea. The latter has the demographics (because Turkic women are still having babies, unlike Slavs).

Putin has to up his game.

Turkroaches are insects much lower on evolutionary tree than even sub-human Jew beasts.

“Russia and Iran Couldn’t Have Saved Syria”…

…but ISrahell said: “How dare you?!”

Question: How come Syria wasn’t allowed to use the S-300s we were told they received? Only a couple or three batteries I seem to recall, but if not to straightaway drop a Kike Air Force bird or two, what was the purpose?

Maybe I’m making too much of that one question, but if it was like that, Assad really had something to think about.

I recall the esteemed Alastair Crooke speculating on Judge Nap yesterday to the effect of Russia suggesting to Assad – once the SHTF – it was just about time for the Syrian prez to lose the idea of hanging on to his nation. Something also about Assad not being sufficiently assiduous in fortifying Syria against, umm, what again, getting betrayed by allies and counterparties I think it was. Or maybe I misheard. Although I never disagree with anything Mr. Crooke says, I thought allies were allies.

I still think Putin got blindsided for only about the sixth time at the enterprise level. This time, he must have been distracted from the bidness of national security by the delivery of some rhapsodic economic address to a packed audience in Uzmenikyrgyzbekistan. Regardless, my guess is that the cost of defending his modest contingent in Syria would have been rather less than the climbdown now in store for Russia. Think BRICS, the Saudis, BRICS, Black Sea transit, BRICS, Russia’s profile in Africa, BRICS, Iran’s opinions possibly changing just a bit, BRICS…

Apres Syria, never have so many had so much to blame on so few. This is the end of the Resistance everywhere in the world for a good bad hundred years. I for one was just this side of counting on Russia to light up the horizon a good ways south of where I live and send fifty million really quite exceptional Christian fundies to Jesus just like they hope to do except different.

Go ahead Andrew, blame Assad if you like. But remember, the guy’s an eye doctor, not a magician. In the critical moments, I’m sure he really needed guidance from a (crack) expert in geostrategic decision making. And right then, whether Putin was there for him, or wasn’t, would have made no difference.

So we agree at least on the Putin effect.

Still coping. Still making excuses. Lmao. Stop defending failures.

>It’s an unmitigated disaster.

If you’re a fan of the ‘Axis of Resistance’, or want there to be something akin to it, especially something effective, or at least less of a joke, then if you reflect you will perhaps see it as less of an ‘unmitigated disaster’ — because it appears Assad was, as head of state, an extremely weak figure — his own military wasn’t willing to fight, even when backed by Russian airpower and faced with little more than ragtag opposition — so it seems likely Assad also had little support among the general population — in this sense, it’s better that he’s finally out of the way, despite the uncertain future.

AA has omitted perhaps the most important reason for Syria’s fall, its economic strangulation at the hands of the US who occupied the eastern most third of the country.

Simplicius has one of the most comprehensive overviews so far. Especially interesting as things – as it turns out – will not be so bad for Russia (and Iran) after all.

The videos at the end of the article reveal the US owning up to its crimes. These people just can’t keep their mouths shut.

Russians With Attitude;

FIVE LESSONS FOR RUSSIA

Doom and gloom are somewhat appropriate, but it is more important to think about the future now. What does the fall of Syria tell us?

1. False Peace is Death. A bad faith ceasefire is a recipe for disaster and after Minsk and Astana should never be repeated. False peace is worse than war, because false peace means you still have to fight the war later, but at a disadvantage. No green busses or green corridors for the enemy, no deescalation zones, no freezing of any lines. The enemy has to be defeated completely: victory is a prerequisite for mercy. Until that is achieved, no ceasefires, only death under FABs.

2. Collapse is always sudden. The Assad regime resisted NATO-Israeli aggression for 13 years. And then it fell in a week. Mistakes, systemic errors and structural attrition accumulate until a critical mass is reached, and at that point the smallest impact will bring down the entire house of cards. Likewise, our current enemy in the main theater will resist stubbornly, until he will not be able to anymore, and then we will see Big Arrows. All our efforts should be focused on damaging the enemy’s war-waging capabilities to reach that critical point.

3. Infantry is King. A single full-sized, dependable Russian infantry brigade (or a Ukrainian one, for that matter) would have been able to defeat the Jihadi advance for good. They were completely overstretched and to a large degree their offensive was a bluff that only worked because the SAA didn’t even try to resist, they just ran. We had our own experience with a lack of infantry in the SMO — it led to the Kharkov oblast debacle in fall ’22. No matter what anyone says, no matter what technological advances there are, the infantry unit was and remains the central actor of history, upon which all else depends.

4. Empire is secondary to the Nation. There was a loud public debate among patriotic circles in Russia when the intervention in Syria began in 2015. Personally, I was opposed to the intervention because it seemed absurd to me to send Russian men to die in a foreign desert while Russian people are suffering under the yoke of Banderite occupation just across the border. We were told by Kremlin propagandists that “Palmyra is a symbol for all mankind” and the Donbass is just, eh, the Donbass. Whatever. Now, Jihadi dogs will get to loot and destroy all that archaeological treasure of all mankind, and we have to fight for the Donbass, anyway. Was it worth it? I have always been staunchly pro-Assad, but a single square mile of Russian land in Novorossiya means more to me than the entire Middle East. A nation should have its priorities in order.

5. You can’t change nature. Some peoples and countries are just unreliable. They will never have stable polities unless compelled by overwhelming force or foreign occupation. They will never build working institutions on their own. You can’t just offer them a comprehensive reform package and then shrug when they refuse to implement it. They will always be shitty client states if you work with them within a civilized framework. We know how to work around local particularities in other parts of the world, so we should let Middle East policy also be guided by this knowledge. They are not Warsaw Era-pact allies you can let do things on their own.

The foregoing circumstances could act as a catalyst to remind Russia of the existentiality of the current global conflict. The stakes are everything and Russian leadership may now see just how critical it is to make sure that the West is decisively defeated in Ukraine.

It’s funny Trump is now calling on the Russians to join an immediate ceasefire now that Assad has been deposed. Almost like the whole point of the proxy war was to occupy or neuter the Russian military enough to get Assad or something…

It’s surreal how nobody talks about how “Russiagate” was concocted by the neocons during the 2016 campaign when Trump expressed anger at the prospect of another US military occupation after Iraq in Syria and the massive blowback from the US/Israel sponsored Salafists as well as the refugee crisis from the war.

This is totally memory-holed and thus it’s surreal to me that so many people believe in Russiagate without even remembering the context of how it even came about, obvious neocon lies and propaganda to support another Iraq.

Turning progressive liberal women, the types who should be the most antagonistic to neocon wars, into deranged neocons on Russia was the greatest propaganda coup of all time. And we’re all paying so dearly for it.

Trump’s been quoted as saying it’s not our fight. He’s been hesitant to commit US troops before, so there’s a good chance he stays out of it.

Also, No, The Refugees are Not Going Back and You’re Getting Millions More

Refugees line up at Turkish border

Video Link
Looks like Erdogan knew what he was doing. Your Tiny Tsar isn’t half as crafty as the Turk.

You can’t just fly in a fleet of jets and drop off troops on the frontlines. That is not how these things work, something I assume we’ve all watched enough war to understand.

They could have attacked the column as it entered from Turkey.

A single Mig can take out an unsupported column.

Once again the Russians somehow missed an armored column crossing the border.

Are their satellites turned on?

If the Kremlin Gremlin hadn’t started this stupid Slavic war then he would have had plenty of resources for Assad.

Now your favorite country Israel is going on a land grab.

Did the military’s demoralization set in following the first attack on Syria by Israel after Aleppo was liberated by Russia?
Did the Syrian army lose morale after Russia allowed US to muscle in in the NE part of Syria?
Did Syrians start looking into the future marked by economic crisis,absent access to health care,education,and employment and figure out that there is no hope beyond bare security under Assad?

Assad is to blame for not keeping his finger on the pulse of the nation.
Assad should have made a deal with Qatar,Turkey months ago while Arabs were warming up to him .
He should have noticed the limits of Iranian Lebanese helps against the open spigot of America UK and Germany. He jas 12 months to factor that in.

For such a genius, Putin sure was hustled on Syria. And the turks…. Safe to say they are an untrustworthy bunch. But it maybe wasn’t a surprise: Erdogan kept crying in public about Israel’s war crimes, but he kept trading with Israel and ultimately knifed Russia in the back. If Putin had been a more assertive war leader, it’s possible none of this happens. He kept playing footsie while Russia’s enemies were going for the jugular. Anglin will defend Putin until it’s too late, and then turn on him like he did another false hero, Musk.

There is an alternative possibility. Assad had refused a new constitution proposed by Putin, that would have permanently partitioned Syria. So Putin hung Assad out to dry. Note that Russia never supplied modern weapons to Syria. Further note that Putin hung Armenia out to dry. There is a pattern to Putin’s behavior. The separatists in Donbass were never supported by Putin. He kept trying to give Donbass back to Ukraine, even after Minsk 1 was broken by Ukraine. Yevgeny Prigozhin head of Wagner was murdered, ordered by Putin? Or Shoigu? Prigozhin marched on Moscow, because he believed Shoigu and Gerasimov were traitors who could win the war in Ukraine, but instead were avoiding victory. Putin does not want to win in Ukraine. He fights just as much as necessary to avoid being removed from power, but he won’t go for a kill shot. He will not take Odessa. All military supplies to Wagner were cut off by the Russian Army during the battle of Bakhmut. After a direct appeal, Putin restored supplies. Prigozhin should have considered that what he hated was Putin’s policy. Putin only ordered the invasion of Ukraine because he would have been removed if he had not. Ukraine had opened a massive artillery shelling of Donbass. This was documented by the OSCE, which can be found online. The Russian FSB told Putin this was in preparation of a Ukrainian military offensive. After dithering three days, Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine. He would have been toppled if he had not.
Wagner secured the Russian victories in Syria, even though very poorly supplied by Russia. The Russian general who disobeyed orders and fought to defeat the Ukrainian counter-offensive, was later arrested. Putin should be characterized as a weak, not very competent, leader who is not dependable. There is a possibility he reports to Langley.

What happened happened so quickly that it would have been completely impossible for Russia and Iran to send more reinforcements. The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) stood down, completely, and so this “revolution” only took as long as it takes to drive Toyotas from Aleppo to Damascus. When the media says “lightning fast,” they are understanding the matter. A more accurate axiom would be “like a warp portal.”

We know now as a factual matter that this is because the SAA leadership was entirely bought off by the Turks and opened the doors for the Islamist and Kurd terrorists. If the SAA would have put up a fight, the Russians and Iranians – as well as Hezbollah, for that matter – could have come in and backed them up. But when the military simply stands down, what are the allies supposed to do? You can’t just fly in a fleet of jets and drop off troops on the frontlines. That is not how these things work, something I assume we’ve all watched enough war to understand.

Yes, Persian Iran and Eurasian Russia were fighting and dying for a snake’s nest.

Israel now owns the snake’s nest. The Judeofascists and Islamofascists will soon be at each other’s throats lol.

Putin was overstretched anyway. Iran, too. Russia can now concentrate on destroying the ((Zelensky)) regime, and Iran can concentrate on its alliance with BRICS. Fuck the Snakes Nest. That will take care of itself as these Judofascists and Islamofascists eat each other alive.

Pity the Palestinians, but the Devil takes the hindmost. Maybe Christ will intervene on their behalf as the Judeofascists and Islamofascists fight to the death.

AA has omitted perhaps the most important reason for Syria’s fall, its economic strangulation at the hands of the US who occupied the eastern most third of the country.

DON’T TRUST THIS CLOWN. He is NOT an Analysis. What he does is just COPY & PASTE to provoke, not to educate.

Discard him.

Excellent and perspicacious comment.

“…(It’s) too leaky a ship, to much hope in”. Augustus McCrae.

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity”.

“Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die: but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.’

Churchill

All of these pretend “countries” in and around what we call the “Levant” are still, after 3,000 years, obsessed with Theocratical leaders. Every now and again, the “Mahdi” will shove spear into Chinese Gordon’s gut, literally and metaphorically, but in general, the Jews are no different than Gertrude Bell, T.E. Lawrence and a host of Occidental parasites who see opportunity in the cultural ignorance and Kamikazi like adherence to a nihilistic faith that promises (I like that it is exact, it is not 73, or 61, or, 152, it is 72 virgins explicitly, like it is a zero sum deal with limited supply. I gotta believe some Jew, with a background in retail, promoted this shit and the sand niggers bought in big time.) hot babes in the afterlife because most of them can’t afford a bar of soap in the present life.

Assad was an “Alawite” (It’s like the Southeast Conference in Islam, where you can drink beer at the game and still have possession with one foot out of bounds.). The esoteric, arcane rules and regulations for each of the myriad “sects” (Make sure you pronounce that right during Ramadan or you will get your fuck’n head cut off with a scimitar, no doubt recently purchased from a Jew in disguise at a retail location right near that big BlackRock that is owned by hilariously, Larry Fink.) are interminable.

What a fuck’n mess. This guy will be running the show, so face the east, beat your wife and then go fuck your goat if you live there.

Syria was said to be one of the last remaining countries outside of the Rothschild central banking system. I lost count; there’s North Korea and maybe some others. It will be revealing to see if the rebels quickly set up a bank with a direct link to the Federal Reserve.

Arguably, more important than the central bank, the Syrian people have been squeezed by economic sanctions, and the democracy-loving Americans have been stealing oil in eastern Syria, which starved the Damascus government of needed revenue.

Did the fall of Syria ultimately come down to consumerism? Syrians saw what people had in other countries, and they wanted the same things. IPhones and such. How much material deprivation could the people endure until they buckled? Did Assad expect his people to live like monks?

Iran is going to find itself in a similar situation. How long will people suffer for an idea before they start begging for the greenbacks? A country really has to go full-North Korea or bust. It must become a hermit nation and ban all Western media so the people don’t know what’s out there, or there will be a revolution from within.

Russia and Iran finally release their Syrian yokes: Until the fall of Assad, Assad and his main backers, Russia and Iran, were the responsible party for Syria’s situation – all of its sorrows, all of its instability, all of its poverty and the general mess. Now who is responsible and accountable for Syria’s future? In one fell swoop, one mostly failed state went from being under Russia’s list of headaches and liabilities to being on Israel’s, Turkey’s, Jordan’s, and America’s list of headaches and liabilities – all of the Middle East actually must suffer the liabilities. The west will bear the blame when everything sours, as everything certainly will. The lack of democracy, the political arrests, the totalitarian laws, the civil strife, the corruption, and the dysfunction – all of it is now the problem of the west, not Putin, not Khamenei and not Assad. Moreover, the resources Iran and Russia wasted on a failed Syrian state will now be used to further strengthen their countries directly. A note to the west: Russia and Iran refused to take the bait. And now, the west will squander its resources to save and rebuild a country that the west destroyed. Russia only feared Syrian weapons falling into the hands of the Ukes and likely made an agreement with Israeli officials that Russia would not fight the jihadists in exchange for the Israeli destruction of any Syrian military equipment left behind in Syria that could “fall” into Ukrainian hands. A great day for us all!

Erdogan was depicting himself as a mediator on Syria while secretly training a rebel force with the help Ukrainian drone advisors.

Putin got played and yet is still talking to Erdogan.

Erdogan pretty much f-cked Putin’s wife and then calls the following weekend to see if he wants to play golf.

Israel now owns the snake’s nest. The Judeofascists and Islamofascists will soon be at each other’s throats lol.

Putin was overstretched anyway. Iran, too. Russia can now concentrate on destroying the ((Zelensky)) regime, and Iran can concentrate on its alliance with BRICS. Fuck the Snakes Nest. That will take care of itself as these Judofascists and Islamofascists eat each other alive.

Israel just got more land thanks to Putin being overstretched. They took a “buffer zone” because they are of course so threatened by country that doesn’t have an official government yet.

So more Orthodox graves and Israel gets land at the cost of ZERO casualties.

Take that Jews! – Anglin’s subgenius followers

Putin could write a check to Israel for 100 billion and you Kremlin Gremlin followers would tell us to not pass judgment until it is cashed. IT COULD BE A 5D CHESS PLAY!!!!

{Further note that Putin hung Armenia out to dry}

Don’t know what happened in Syria, but re Armenia, Putin did no such thing.
You have absolutely NO idea what happened in Armenia back then, or is happening now.
You are just repeating Internet nonsense.

This is not the thread for it, but I have debunked this nonsense plenty in other relevant threads.

Well, at minimum, this has been an interesting turn of events.

I guess when you live in modern, western, at least semi-functional nation states, it’s a little hard to understand how a country can be so unstable, that it can be completely taken over in a week.

I’ve seen all the reports- the army was bribed, Assad was tired and just didn’t care anymore, and he was never supposed to be the son that lead Syria to begin with… the Russians didn’t care, the Iranians gave up…

Here’s the deal-

Did you see how it all ended for Saddam Hussein?

How about Mohmar Ghaddafi?

Christopher Stephens in Benghazi?

Well, maybe Assad did want to be sodomized and hung, so he said “fuck this” and beat feet.

Armenia disagrees with you. Turkey supplied drones and much more, no protest from Putin. So why does Putin suck Erdogan’s dick?

Again, Russia is a paper tiger hoping to be the last one eaten. They don’t have the power to fight these wars. Their job is to be America’s villain and justification for spending trillions to fight wars to “save democracy” on behalf of Israel and other countries. All Putin has is a nuclear arsenal that to use would mean Russia’s own demise.

You make it sound like people worldwide want what people in the West have. So we have cellphones and a bunch of other meaningless bullshit. There are people who live in their cars that have a cellphone, I’m sure they want what the guy down the street have, A REAL HOUSE.

Just because these people were living in other countries doesn’t mean they had access to all that shit they don’t have available in their own countries. There are people here in America who want what other people got, but guess what? THEY CAN’T AFFORD TO HAVE WHAT THEY GOT.

Apparently, Assad could no longer pay his army. It brings to mind the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus’ advice to his sons: ““Scorn all other men, pay the army.”

Putin and Erdogan met 2 weeks before Assad’s fall. Maybe there was a certain agreement. (PS. Biden might not be informed and Trump is not yet in office)

I agree. Russia and Iran couldn’t force al-Assad to do more than he was willing to do. He refused their help to do more several times. After the (previous) war, he cooled his relationship with them because he wanted to pivot to the Gulf Arab states. The Gulf states were no longer antagonistic to him, but they weren’t going to help him either.

There’s is no way to explain the total all-hands desertion of the SAA other than treason at the top levels. They deserted bases that weren’t under rebel attack. Air bases, naval bases, air defense systems. Why? They deliberately abandoned aircraft outside protection hangers so they can be bombed from the air. Why? Even assuming soldiers don’t like al-Assad personally, an army fights out of self-preservation. Out of a desire to maintain their organised power. I mean, if the military brass don’t like the civilian head of state, they can depose him themselves and assume power (remember Egypt?)

There was talk about how rebels were using drones and EW. So what? That didn’t cause the less-equipped Kurdish militias (SDF, FSA) to desert or surrender. Judging by the videos the drones we’re talking about are quadcopters dropping grenades. I mean, come on. An entire army fled because of this?

You Judeofascists are just upset because you bought yourself another tar baby. If Assad wasn’t willing to fight for Syria, why should Russia and why should Iran? They’re not cucks, like your ilk.

Eurasia + Persia + Asia is the future, while you Judeofascist and Islamofascist parasites duke it out over Muh Holy Land and Muh Petrodollar lol.

Jesus Christ said Jerusalem is cursed. The Prophets said the Hebroids are cursed. You people are pariahs who bring misfortune to whatever you touch. Your own elites couldn’t stand you.

Enjoy your tar baby, John “Juden-Fascist’” Johnson.

Christendom will come in eventually, mop up your blood, and flush it down the toilet. World peace will then reign once the Serpent is dead.

Like I said: you know nothing about Armenia and are regurgitating BS that you read at some obscure blog or website full of imaginary “facts”.

And when somebody resorts to spouting juvenile non sequiturs — it is a tell that they know less than nothing and are desperately trying to appear knowledgeable.
Won’t work: you still know less than nothing.

Adios.

“ Was the intent to remove Assad before a new US President got into office? Or to cause Trump a problem at day 1 as a new civil war with a battling Assad in charge?”

The answer is yes to both questions. It will be much harder to remove U.S. troops from Syria with the coming chaos. And even if U.S. troops are withdrawn, there will not be any agreement possible over Syria between Putin and Trump. The big winner from any chaos in the Levant is Israel.

“ The battles there are precursors or sideshows to sweeping events occurring elsewhere.”

Ultimately the big showdown will be among the biggies. The Syrian debacle, which is bound to spread wider, will only make it harder to reach a peaceful solution to the ever growing tensions between the Anglo- American axis and the Russo-Chinese alliance. America is hellbent on controlling the energy sources of the Middle East, thereby holding dependent China hostage to which direction America turns the spigot. The Chinese hesitancy to take an active role in Middle Eastern affairs will cost them dearly.

Meanwhile, with Assad having played his cards badly, the Syrian society is doomed to ever greater chaos.

Thank you for your excellent comment.

In as much as I never took Paul Craig Roberts’s chiding Russia’s indecision and half steps, back at the start of the Russian military prop up of the failing Syrian army in 2015, he has proven very prescient. Chaos in the ME will preclude any successful attempt by Trump at resolving the American Neocons and deep state mess that they have pinned on United States-Russia relations.

Putin should have finished the job by blasting away the last jihadi. What the Russian Air Force achieved in one week was a total turn around with General Suleimani in charge of the boots on the ground.

I hope Russia has learnt and would never budge over her SMO aims.

If the Kremlin Gremlin hadn’t started this stupid Slavic war then he would have had plenty of resources for Assad.

scumbag

Putin did not start the war.

ZOG, your government, under Obama, (with Lindsey Graham and John McCain’s assistance), led by ((V. Nuland and her Kagan cabal)) fomented a coup, (“Yats is the guy”), whereupon these puppets installed by ZOG began shelling the Russian-speaking citizens of Ukraine with artillery, murdering thousands.

Putin, after exhaustive attempts at diplomacy, did everything he could to avoid war. But your little brother Boris Johnson, was sent in to say there will be no peace.

What about that, (lying scumbag) do you not understand?

Putin will sell out Syria to Jews if they push hard enough. So will he sell out Russia too? All boomers are programmed like robots to sell out to Jews.

What the Russian Air Force achieved in one week was a total turn around with General Suleimani in charge of the boots on the ground.

Don’t trust Russia, Putin showed he is a traitor to Muslims. Putin is aligned with the Zionist Sunni, Zionist Hindu and Zionist China. The main target of Al Nusra is Shiites meaning Iran, Hizbollah and its ally Hamas. It is very real that these terrorist attack the Shiite in Iraq. They love to kiss Jewish behinds, but to kill the Shiites. How evil and petty one can get to kill the people who are fighting against the enemy of Muslims because they are against sectarianism. Their worldview is Wahhabi like.
General Suleimani did not want to leave the Terrorist in Idlib under control of the zionist whore Erdogan, emphasizing that we should finish the Job. His order was not accepted.
This treason happened in Astana conference and Both Putin and Assad went for this trap. Don’t forget that Putin is NOT ally of Iran, he is just interested in using others for the interest of Russia. Unfortunately, Bashar Assad was strongly attached to Putin because he was ‘secular’
Putin was also sided with the Zionist Pan Turkism, Erdogan, in the Caucuses when Turkey stabbed Iran on her back, siding with Turkey in Zionist Pan Turkism project of Zange Zur, to close the Iranian passage to the Europe. Iranians are very angry at him and don’t trust Russia for a second.
That project is has NOT started yet, but I am sure The zionist whores, Pan Turkism, are going to push this project forward where Iran has warned the involved party that Iran WILL NOT ACCEPT and will fight back for her interests.
Until few days ago, Iran was pushing Assad to fight back against the terrorists of Al Nusra and was prepared her forces to fight along Syrian army, but Assad would not give PERMISSION. Iran could not fight in the country when Assad and the Army are not willing to fight the terrorists. I think Russia made a DEAL with Assad where the Zionists will be be happy. Everything was different this time, the Iranian officials said. So the Russian official FOOLS deliberately are spreading LIES that Russia was SHOCKED, or “Russia was surprised”. Everyone knew that the terrorists in Idlib under Turkey’s control are recieving training and arms funded by Qatar/UK/US to topple Assad. Death to traitors, Shame on Russia and China.

“Putin should have finished the job by blasting away the last jihadi. What the Russian Air Force achieved in one week was a total turn around with General Suleimani in charge of the boots on the ground.”

If you read the linked article, the author goes into why this didn’t happen. About a quarter of the way through he writes;

“…ideations about conquering Idlib at the time aren’t as realistic as some believe. The US and Turkey were both prepared to go to war to save their Al-Qaeda stronghold, and Russia astutely saw fit to compromise and “quit while they were ahead”… etc.

He’s being himself and I like that.

Russia and Iran did not swallow the Western provocation aimed at leading them to a war outside their territories in order to stir up the world with a disinformation campaign against them by the Western yellow press as the causers of the war.

Avery, you are all hat and no cattle. Do you have any facts? Russia standing aside while Turkey and Azerbaijan attack Armenia? The Turks using modern weaponry, Turkish fighter aircraft, Turkish pilots, against Armenia with old Soviet weaponry. Yes, your heroes, Putin and Erdogan fellate each other. I know the history, ancient and modern.

Putin did not start the war.

ZOG, your government, under Obama, (with Lindsey Graham and John McCain’s assistance), led by ((V. Nuland and her Kagan cabal)) fomented a coup

Oh ok explain how there was a coup started by Nuland when it was the Ukrainian Parliament that voted to remove their corrupt pro-Russian president. Here is an article from that time:

Ukraine Parliament Votes To Remove President Yanukovych
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/miriamelder/ukraine-parliament-votes-to-impeach-president-yanukovych

Instead of facing a trial that president looted his own mansion and fled to Russia.

Are you saying he should have been left in office or that his removal wasn’t democratic?

Removing a president that took bribes is not a coup. Biden should have been removed for similar reasons.

You have been reading too much from pro-Putin blogs that don’t tell the whole story.

Putin didn’t even cite that removal when he invaded Ukraine. He said it was about stopping the Eastward expansion of NATO. Well that goal has failed since NATO has moved East through Finland.

Putin, after exhaustive attempts at diplomacy, did everything he could to avoid war.

Oh really? Then why didn’t he send an ultimatum to Ukraine over NATO?

I don’t really believe Russia or Iran wanted to save them, regardless. Their interests were only ever in preventing Syria from becoming an American puppet state, not in propping up Assad per se. The accusations that Iran and Russia “betrayed” him is funny, since the guy couldn’t even stand on his own two feet and was always just a means to an end. He knew it and they knew it. Beggars can’t be choosers, and complaining that Russia and Iran “betrayed” Assad is like a panhandler complaining that he was “betrayed” because someone gave him $5 instead of $20.

At this point, they either believe that the USA will not be able to control Syria, because it will become a quagmire for them or because Turkey will exert more control there, or something else in the strategic calculus has changed (possibly recent Iranian weapons developments- missiles, drones, or possibly a successful nuclear program) such that propping up Assad was no longer worth the costs.

Israel just destroyed all the state military assets of Syria. Fecking Jews.

The US and Turkey were both prepared to go to war to save their Al-Qaeda stronghold, and Russia astutely saw fit to compromise and “quit while they were ahead”… etc.

Everything Russia did in Syria was useless or was serving Zionist goals in the long-term.

If they were not willing to risk war in Syria there was no reason to go there. Obviously when you intervene against Zionist-American proxies you are risking war with them. This is why they hoaxed the gas attacks TWICE under Trump, and Trump jumped like a dog, squealing about gassed babies when it was an obvious hoax.

Russia sent the Wagner troops towards the oil wells to be murdered and then disavowed what they did.

If Russia and Iran were actual allies, they would have cleared out Syria including “Rojava” – restoring the oil fields, pushed Erdogan into line, prevented the non-stop Zionist bombing of Syria, recovered, and they would have relentlessly harassed American “bases” in Syria through proxies backed with the threat of nuclear retaliation if the US directly intervened.

The USA has no legal right to be in Syria, at all. Neither does Israel.

The Syrians were fighting a long time without significant aid against an insurgency heavily backed from abroad.

Russians comes in and say they’re going to help, their Air Force supports the Syrians, Hezbollah, IRGC and Wagner forces, but then leave Syria in a situation that is untenable in the long-term. Food and oil stolen by Americans, Americans backing ISIS terrorists, Russia permitting non-stop Israeli bombing and drone terrorism.

This appeasement is what emboldened the US to start the Ukraine War. WHICH IS A WAR not a “special operation.” If you’re not willing to fight a war because you don’t like the term “war” – you’re not exactly striving for victory.

There was no way Syria could survive in this situation without substantial foreign aid. Russia abandoned Assad in exchange for something, that’s a sell-out. You can’t be so close to the Zionist Jews and be a reliable benefactor to any of their neighbors! The US government can’t be Israel First without putting Jews ahead of Americans. The Russians can’t maintain “close ties” with Israel without betraying their erstwhile allies.

A “democratic revolution” where a depraved US Jewess who would throw sunflower seeds on the dirt for poor Ukrainian children to pick up talks on the phone about who is going to hold office in the government and which countries are going to be allowed any influence in Ukraine. (incidentally, that’s what “democracy” and “revolution” mean in practice, and quite possibly, they have always meant that, since at least 1815 and probably for many years before)

Ukraine is not controlled by Ukrainians. Ukrainians are hunted down and press-ganged to die on the front for the kikes. Ukraine is controlled by murderous, bloodthirsty Jews who are happy to see massive Ukrainian casualties and depopulation. The people who support that are mentally incompetent or deranged.

If in 2014 Russia had swept into Ukraine and occupied the country, Ukrainians, Russians and the whole world would be far better off.

It would be nice for the Ruthenians to have autonomy and for Ukraine to have a measure of independence, but we live in a world where Jew banks can totally manipulate and control a poor country like Ukraine, and lead it to ruin. Ukrainian nationalists have become the worst enemies of their country.

PCR claims that Putin allowing Syria to fall will come back to bite him in his ass, I don’t know how serious everything is going to get. But I believe him when he says “Putin was so afraid to offend Israel, he did nothing!” Putin would rather defend Israel than his own territory, at least that’s what I got out of reading PCR recent post.

It’s starting to seem like to me, that no one is willing to challenge them….It amazes me how weak this entire world really is when it comes down to this one part of the world. I am glad I never grew up putting any faith in men outside of fictionalize stories about heroes and warriors standing up to a threat and defeating it. Because men of the real world have shown me one thing…

They are all pussies living in fear of Hell, and will defend and protect hell no matter what. Basically just helping them build their Greater Hell Project. Putin is nothing more than a fucking liberal, and Liberals aren’t tough, they just know how talk a lot of shit. So if Putin does get replaced, it will be best to get the fuck out of the United States, because changes are they’ll replace him with someone who won’t hold back on nuking the United States for it’s ignorance. I already feel uncomforable living in America enough as it is….I mean it’s a nation fully armed to the teeth, but the citizens are still bitches and scared of their own Government when it should be the other way around.

All of you will be just as surprised, scratching your heads and asking the same questions when Russia withdraws from Ukraine and shakes hands with Zelenski!

None of you are able to see or understand the big picture.

It’s beyond me how anyone would want to live in a reckless country like the United States, at least when Rome collapse they were done trying to conquer the world. When Spain collapsed, they were done colonizing… But the U.S. never quits because it’s fucking suicidal… I don’t know if everything PCR says is true, he even claims that Putin will have to surrender just to avoid nuclear war because him not doing anything to prevent what happened with Syria will now give the West an excuse to pound it’s chest even harder by getting even more aggressive. Like I said before we live in much dangerous times.. Some people are saying it was good that Putin let Syria go, others are saying it was a mistake he didn’t try to defend and protect it because now it’s going to have dire consequences. So who is right and wrong here on this matter? I wish I knew but I don’t I wish I could have gotten out of the West a long time ago before Putin gets replaced by someone with enough balls to put America in it’s place.

>AA has omitted perhaps the most important reason for Syria’s fall

You mean Anglin isn’t an expert on everything going on in the world? — very surprising.

>perhaps the most important reason for Syria’s fall

No, I don’t think so — the most immediate reason is that the SAA was unwilling to fight for Assad, his regime, or even for Syria, since to them it seems Syria was represented by the Assad regime — even with superior numbers, better equipment, and backed by Russian airpower (the ‘rebels’ had no air capability), they quit, gave up, deserted en masse, allowed every major city to fall, barely firing a shot — this is rather clear now — so as head of state Assad was a very weak, and likely rather unpopular, figure — probably also incompetent, certainly no strongman who could inspire and control a following.

I’ve heard that soldiers in the SAA were poorly paid, which probably affected motivation — but there is no conscription in Russia; those fighting in the SMO do so voluntarily — clearly men with options are significantly less likely to do that — many in Russia are quite poor — to see examples of how poor, watch a few videos on this channel.

So ‘the most important reason for Syria’s fall’ was the unwillingness of the SAA to fight.

And the most important lessons for Russia are clearly 1) and 4): don’t make a bad deal just to get peace (especially after shedding so much Russian blood), and don’t enter into useless alliances with incompetent regimes.

Wtf is it with you bleating about ‘fascists’ all the time? Stop it.

You think the Russians would be fighting in Ukraine if they lived in Syrian conditions?

The Syrians fought for many years, if they collapsed now, it’s because the reached the breaking point. The same thing will happen to Ukraine, and someday, to Israel.

A “democratic revolution” where a depraved US Jewess who would throw sunflower seeds on the dirt for poor Ukrainian children to pick up talks on the phone about who is going to hold office in the government and which countries are going to be allowed any influence in Ukraine.

This has to be the laziest Jewspiracy I have ever seen. It is up there with Jews controlling the weather.

Nuland was not even a director of the CIA. Do explain how an assistant diplomat made a pro-Russian president take bribes or how she forced Ukrainian Parliament to vote out Yanukovych.

Do explain how she used magic Jew powers to remove a president that no one, and I mean no one has tried to claim was innocent. He is on video looting his mansion before fleeing to Russia.

Nuland said that he should go and so did most Western European leaders.

But if you think she did some type of Jew curse then go ahead and explain it.

If Yanukovych didn’t take millions in bribes then Maidan would not have happened.

The Kurds control all the oil wells which would provide salary for soldiers. Where the Kurds stow all the loot is any one’s guess.

That’s why the Israeli vassal states of America and the U.K. have kept the Ukraine war going for as long as they have. Russia has fewer military and intelligence resources to commit to the Syrian theater as a result of the Ukraine war and have now paid the price for it.

And like you said depriving Syria of its oil producing region proved fatal to the Assad regime and it was only a matter of time before they ran out of money to pay the military who apparently got a better offer from U.S. surrogates not to fight. I thought Russia, Iran and possibly China were chipping in to bankroll Syria but apparently not to the degree needed.

This will all go sideways at some point but if and when it does Israel will just demand The U.S. expend blood and treasure to fix it which orange man or any other American president will gladly do.

“Kuznet609” just commented in the latest YouTube post from Andrei Martyanov (“Smoothie X12”) concerning Russia in Syria, as follows:

I find the behavior from the Russian side quite brazen.

It’s being presented (with videos, among other things) as if the Syrian soldiers were cowards and simply didn’t feel like it anymore and gave up. In addition, Russian soldiers recorded videos with malicious comments showing huge queues of Syrian soldiers who had given up and were heading towards Iraq.

First of all:
Syria had to struggle with massive sanctions (Caesar Act) for over 10 years, large parts of the country where agriculture was practiced and oil was extracted were occupied by the enemy – including the USA. Unlike Russia, Syria is not able to survive independently.

There was hardly any investment from Russia and China in Syria.

When the Syrians tried to liberate Idlib a few years ago, the Turks helped with air strikes against the attacks and Russia did nothing. Instead, Russia persuaded Syria to stop the Idlib offensive.

This marked the end of the Syrian army and the Syrian nation state.

The only Syrian who has turned out to be a coward is Assad, who suddenly left the country without a word shortly after his visit to Moscow.

Even a blind guy should realize that Russia has apparently made it clear to Assad that he should give up.

Almost at the same time, virtually the entire Syrian army laid down their arms and fled. This is unusual and does not happen without orders from above. The whole army!

The fact that the Russians are now acting with arroganter attitude as if the Syrians have cowardly given up and they would be responsible for the fact that Syria is now ruled by Islamists instead of fighting is a disgrace for Russia. Absolutely disgusting behavior by Russians and Russia.

If you have friends like that, you don’t need enemies.The Syrian army did everything it could and was betrayed in the end.

And the pro-Russian NPCs can get as upset as they like, but it also looks to me like the Kremlin was clearly working with the Israeli government (alongside the Turkish government).

Someone replied to the above:

“If Syria isnt able to survive independently it wasnt a viable state to begin with so maybe the Assad family should’ve been focusing on that rather than building statues for themselves.”

We live in a world where both sides feel they can do whatever they want.

I’m beginning to believe that Russians are just moronic dickheads now. That and they don’t really know shit about their own sorry ass leader.

Some slight corrections needed there, the reason Putin invaded Ukraine was because Putin finally obtained definite proof that the plan was for the Ukies to invade Russia after taking care of Donbas and Lugansk. Russia doesn’t want fighting on its territory after the experience of WW2, so since the fight was coming Putin just made sure that the fighting happens outside Russia, in Ukraine.

But you are right in that Russia doesn’t give a fork about Serbia, Libya, Ukraine, Syria or anyone, Russia only cares about itself. Its a very short sighted approach, but it is Russia’s approach. And the fighting in Ukraine was just to slap NATO and its global ambitions around a bit for their audacity in thinking they could attack Russia, not to take territory there or to save the Russians there. Any Russians in Ukraine can simply flee to Russia as Russia has lots of land, so no need to save any Russians in Ukraine. Any Russian actually wanting to do proper fighting in Ukraine is going against Russia government policy and strategy and so gets dealt with.

But like I said, Russia is suffering from shortsightedness. With Syria Russia had a populace willing to fight as proxies for Russia. The West has lots of proxies fighting for them, but Russia doesn’t see the need to maintain proxies to fight against the West. Utter stupidity. With its proxies America maintains them with supplies, money and management skills. Ok, Russia doesn’t have money, but Russia has indefinite supplies so could have supplied Syria with all the wheat and fuel Syria required to at least maintain some sort of a civilized existence. Russia also did not supply Syria with the necessary management skills without which Syria couldn’t get anything right. Proxies are too stupid to get anything right by themselves so they need outsiders telling them what to do. It would have taken like just 2000 Russian administrators to maintain the Syrian government and army in good enough condition to give a good account of themselves in the event of any Turkish, American or Israeli invasion. But Russia didn’t want to supply or manage Syria, and was always telling Syria to not fight Turkey, to not fight the US and especially not fight Israel, even though all those countries are holding Syrian land. The end result was that Syria didn’t want to fight when Syria really needed to fight. Russia forked up, plain and simple as that, but it is Russian policy not to get too involved in matters outside Russia, even when they should. And it would have cost Russia nothing to supply Syria, Russia already has more wheat than it can consume and enough fuel as well. The 2000 managers needed would have been volunteers who wanted to fight the good fight against the West even if they die. So at little cost Russia could have pissed the West off for decades in the Middle East, but Russia didn’t.

primary failure happened ’17~’18, by leaving assad with the mess to deal with alone – which was impossible situation. and ever since it was sort of inverse sunken cost spiral, with thinking going something like – well, we shouldve done this and that but now it would be much harder, and since we didnt and it still somehow holds perhaps we can manage it diplomatically and it will all work out

then the proper, secondary failure happened in ’22 once ru started ukro op and was hit with bazzilon sanctions all real restrains on helping syria were removed, but above modality was already deeply ingrained and focus was elsewhere – thus they didnt

one can call mid ’24 final failure, but at that point saa was an empty shell and assad long gave up trying, all necessary intel was there – the op was long coming, and situation was still technically recoverable tho costs woulve been great

>You think the Russians would be fighting in Ukraine

Yeah, I do — because they are white men, and white men fight, they don’t run away — since 2014, ethnic Russian citizens of Ukraine have been fighting the AFU — and since Feb 2022, Ukrainians have been fighting hard against a superior enemy — some Ukrainians fled at the start of the SMO, but the vast majority stayed, and the AFU has been an effective fighting force — e.g. in late 2022 they forced the Russians to retreat, in 2024 they even undertook an offensive into Russia (Kursk) — I said ‘especially after shedding so much Russian blood’ because Ukrainian men are making Russia pay a price for every meter of nominal Ukraine Russian forces occupy (almost all the fighting is taking place in the regions self-declared as autonomous in 2014, which Russia did not recognize until the start of the SMO in Feb 2022).

There had been no significant fighting in Syria for years — it had been so quiet, the ‘civil war’ was seen as over (mostly because of the contribution Wagner plus Russian airpower made in defeating the ‘rebels’) — things were stable in Syria, to the point that as I said before, some governments in Europe were talking about revoking protected status of Syrians and sending them back to Syria.

The idiocy you see in the comments here is unbelievable.

There are people who live in their cars that have a cellphone, I’m sure they want what the guy down the street have, A REAL HOUSE..There are people here in America who want what other people got, but guess what? THEY CAN’T AFFORD TO HAVE WHAT THEY GOT.

People tend to want what other people have, it is true. Sometimes these things are simply unaffordable, and there is nothing that can be done. The guy living in his car, for instance, is not going to get a house. You make solid points.

But, what if the problem is more than lack of money? People in Syria were suffering under American economic sanctions. Eventually, it seems that they reached the point where they were willing to welcome their own government’s downfall. Maybe they loved Assad, I don’t know. But, in the end, they chose American consumerism.

Now, consider Iran. How long are they going to be willing to suffer economic deprivation for an ideology? Do they want hard-line Islamic rulers who resist the Zionists, or do they want the stuff that people have in America?

This is an important point for you to understand. It was the basis of the plan to topple Putin, which failed miserably. Time will tell if the bankers can effect a colour revolution in Iran.

This is an important point for you to understand. It was the basis of the plan to topple Putin, which failed miserably. Time will tell if the bankers can effect a colour revolution in Iran.

You talk like the gullible Iranian fifth column, ‘the reformists’ who refuse to understand the facts on the ground due to their petty interests.
I ask you a simple question: Are Egyptians, who have become the servants of US/Israel and have to kill their brothers for US/Israel in order to receive hand out from, better off or the Iranians who conduct their own foreign policy?
Is Jordan better off that has become nothing but US/Israel’s lackey to receive hand out to feed her hungry population? All have remain humiliated unless they liberate themselves.
Is MBS gas station better off accepting to serve the interest of Israel and US better thier own interest, killing their own citizens who are oppose to the status quo, in thousands? No one forgets the time when Houties attacked ARAMCO to end Saudis aggression against Yemen, but her Master, US, did NOTHING to save them, although Trump extorted billions of dollars from MBS giving him nothing but empty promises. Do you remember?
Or UAE, a glass casino where can be shattered with two missiles, but it is at the service of the Jews to go there to sell drugs and prostitution, otherwise they will go down. So much benefits for ‘serving the enemy’ to improve your dollar dominated economy. While the enemy sitting on his fat ass, doing nothing but genocide collecting the stolen money through ‘dollar as International currency’ policy that is forced on nations around the world.

talks on the phone about who is going to hold office in the government

and not to discuss who’s going to be president of Ukraine, but she herself unilaterally and imperiously decides for herself, who is going to lead this nation, after she bragged of spending 5 billion dollars to promote “democracy” in Ukraine.

How’s that for “democracy”, eh? As you point out.

And then, the ((Western)) politicians and media are all screeching about ‘Russia meddling in our elections!!’.

The hypocrisy is so over-the-top, and in your face, that its intended as a ‘fuck you Russia, what are you going to do about it?’

There isn’t even the hint of statecraft. Just a grubby little bully pushing people around, always looking for anyone who thumbs their nose at ZOG, so they can send the stupid Americans to stomp them down.

Ukraine is controlled by murderous, bloodthirsty Jews

yep, like Kolomoisky, Zelinsky’s boss.

all swimming in the billions of lucre Biden is lavishing upon them, with some of it trickling back to corrupt congressmen and the utterly corrupt Biden regime.

If in 2014 Russia had swept into Ukraine and occupied the country, Ukrainians, Russians and the whole world would be far better off.

It’s hard to say. One thing I’ve come to appreciate over the decades, is that I personally do not feel qualified to second guess Vlad Putin. Perhaps in hindsight, PCR was right, and that as soon as it came out that the Minsk accords were a ruse, (to get more Russians and Ukrainians slaughtered), that perhaps that would have been the time to march on Kiev, and rout out the corrupt ((Zelinsky regime)).

But it also would have resulted in massive casualties of both Russian and Ukrainians, something I’m sure Putin is loath to see more of. Also, it would have done significant damage to the historical city that is a part of the heritage of all the people in the region, Russians included. Then of course, there is always the threat that ZOG’s relentless provocations will finally give them that pretext they lust for, to say, ‘LOOK, look at what Russia is doing in Kiev! We were right all along, Putin is Hitler! And he must be stopped!!!

Blah, blah..

But you get the idea, and that is what Putin has to deal with. An unhinged fiend looking for any pretext to get more goyim slaughtered, while they always laugh their way to the bank. Such a deal!’

we live in a world where Jew banks can totally manipulate and control a poor country like Ukraine, and lead it to ruin. Ukrainian nationalists have become the worst enemies of their country.

It’s complicated.

One of the things that almost never gets mentioned is the legacy of WWII and the ravages of the communist regimes that oppressed and often genocided wholesale massive swaths of the population, (the Kulaks), which Russia pretends never happened, that exacerbates the hostilities left over from that ((evil war)).

The Jews use those lingering hostilities to foment more and more slaughter and misery and hate; their calling cards.

his removal wasn’t democratic?

duh, imbecile

Oh really? Then why didn’t he send an ultimatum to Ukraine over NATO?

he did, imbecile

Ukraine (the U.S. / UK – ZOG iow) repudiated his ultimatum, and so we got the war, a war that was forced upon Putin by ZOG

which everyone here knows, so the more you lie and dissemble, the more rat-like you make yourself out to be.

Most leaders of men since the the Bronze Age have been defective to some degree (if you study history) just as the Mankind that ran after them cheering was a motley spectacle and checkered mass of fornicators and perverts, with a few heroic exceptions. Get wise, my friend.

Is Jordan better off that has become nothing but US/Israel’s lackey to receive hand out to feed her hungry population?

Are Britain, Germany, or Japan better off after accepting US dollars? How is it working out for the Ukraine after turning towards America?

Come on, anon. Never try to emulate America or accept its influence. It spreads mono-culture. If its influence is let in, then a country will lose its unique culture and traditions, and your kids will turn into gay trannies. All for what, cheap plastic trinkets?

We hope that Iran will be strengthened by its rich history and firm faith, so that its people do not succumb to the siren call of consumerism.

No, Russia would be a failed state if it was in Syria’s position. (there have been times in Russia’s history when it has been in that position and her defensive capability collapsed (as in 1918) – because of its vast extent and population it avoided total occupation) That’s the simple reality. Putin knew very well Syria was in no position to support itself (much of its territory being occupied, under extreme sanctions), and had wholly inadequate resources. He’s blaming it on Assad and the generals because Russia abandoned Syria in exchange for something else.

The stupidity of the Russian apologists (like Gilbert Doctorow pretending Israel is subject to the USA and not that the USA is subject to the Jews) is apparent for the world to see.

Wtf is it with you bleating about ‘fascists’ all the time? Stop it.

Your hero Hitler was a kike. His father (Shicklgruber) was a crypto-Hebroid psychopath. The bad seed didn’t fall far from the tree.

In fact, Hitler” (Shicklgruber) had Satanic (jewish) dirt up and down his blodline.
https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/books/first/k/kershaw-hitler.html

Hitler, like ((Zelensky)), got a ton of White Christians killed. He fell right into the ((Cousinhood’s)) traps, deliberately, or like ((Zelensky)) through degenerate, anti-Christ, Satanic programming.

Jesus Christ didn’t have a drop of Satanic or Voodoo blood in him. It’s why he was allergic to kikes.

Given that naming the Judeofascist bothers you so much, you could be a kike.

So you didn’t want to back your statements on Maidan and everyone can see that.

You have no explanation for how Nuland used Jew powers to remove a corrupt pro-Russian president that you aren’t denying took millions in bribes. You also aren’t denying that he was removed by Ukrainian Parliament which would make it a democratic process just as if Congress removed Biden.

Oh and your dwarf king left Russian units behind in Syria:

I guess you and Anglin are on the 5 year plan when it comes to figuring out that Putin is just an angry ex-KGB atheist with short man’s syndrome. He will make deals with whomever he wants and will break them without care. That is the unprincipled man. He was supposed to be providing security to Assad in exchange for business contracts. Putin has treated Israel far better than Syria but you probably can’t handle that reality at the moment. He sure as hell doesn’t share your views on ZOG and in fact praised the Jews in a speech in June.

Ukraine (the U.S. / UK – ZOG iow) repudiated his ultimatum, and so we got the war, a war that was forced upon Putin by ZOG

Let’s see this ultimatum to Ukraine then.

We will see if Rurik can back ONE statement on Ukraine with a source.

You put lots of food for thought.

However, I am still willing to give Putin the benefit of the doubt. And we all should ask ourselves, is Putin engaging in realpolitik now that Russia is no more the ideologically driven USSR. After all, as Bismarck remarked “ politics is the art of the possible”.

Putin IMHO, never wanted a war with the West and was happy to let his country live and and let live. He was trading with Europe and things were just fine until ZOG decided to move in a menacing way into his backyard. Under the crisis that followed, Russia reasserted her dormant power becoming the undisputed military power. But that will not be enough to save Russia from the scheming of ZOG.

One thing is sure, Putin is not driven in his actions and policies with the establishment of justice but more with the survival and the territorial integrity of Russia. No matter how much betrayed many of his admiring Muslims should feel, Putin is still the least bad alternative to the Global South, including Muslims.

You have a point that I am here judging by hindsight.

But had such a scenario been seen as a strong possibility, would Russia have decided to bury the hatchet?

ZOG planners, including the late Zbegniew Brzezinsky, have built a strategy against the Soviet Union based on hurting the USSR by attacking her soft underbelly. The same strategy of using Islamic extremism is being nurtured in Syria. Let us recall the Arab fighters in Chechnya during the Yeltsin incursion.

No matter how much of a brave face we put over the loss of Syria, there is no doubt that had the Assad regime endured, life for the Empire would have been much harder than it currently is.

Pragmatism can sometimes preserve the peace but at much higher cost of war later on. Turkey accepted reluctantly the terms of coexistence with Russia in Syria, bided her time, and attacked at the opportune moment.

Let’s see this ultimatum to Ukraine then.

imbecile

the whole world heard Russia’s ultimatum.

Either Ukraine stays out of ((NATO)), or else.

If you’re too stupid to see the obvious, perhaps you don’t belong here..

The Russians would have needed to have blasted the Kurds off the oil field areas. Was that even possible?

The Kurdish and American forces in Syria simply sat on the oil fields. There was no way to pay the Government Armed Forces. Naturally the legions bled or faded away without pay.
