One has to wonder just where ethnic cleansing comes on Trump's list of "off limits" activities?

Even with your usual esoteric posts, this one is a little abstract?

Mostly gas. I wrote on a bus in a rush.

Gas attacks.

The terrorist dictator, Erdoğan, will probably free them, give them money and weapons and set them lose on the Kurds.

It's aight, they're just brown people (with no money), if only they controlled the US like the Saudi's (or now seemingly Turkey) currently do. (US sending more troops to the Saudi Bases, but leaving the Kurds at the mercy of a genocidal **** is mighty contradictory to the idea of "bring the boys home", that's for sure.)

Good to know Putin's plan to spread democracy in Syria is coming along nicely. He was particularly active in May this year, it seems:

An analysis of previously unpublished Russian Air Force radio recordings, plane-spotter logs and witness accounts allowed The Times to trace bombings of four hospitals in just 12 hours in May and tie Russian pilots to each one.

The 12-hour period beginning on 5 May represents a small slice of the air war in Syria, but it is a microcosm of Russia’s four-year military intervention in Syria’s civil war. A new front in the conflict opened this week, when Turkish forces crossed the border as part of a campaign against a Kurdish-led militia.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see a video from him next week, just like all the other times hes been killed.

Took his kids with him via suicide vest, how brave.

More of a retroactive abortion vest then?

Nice touch being chased to his death by attack dogs. Could have only been topped if it was an all female assault squad.

Let's see who the next leader is then.

Regarding this few notes. The guy was killed at Barisha, 1.5km from the Turkish borders. Nobody should believe for a single second that his location wasn't known to MIT (Turkish Military Intelligence) for years.
Which means
a) Either Turkey didn't inform US intelligence about his whereabouts all those years.
b) Turkey handed over Bagdadi as a present to Trump for the US forces leaving Rojava and ease bit the tension after the Turkish-Russian summit last week.
And everything that came out from it like doubling the S-400 missiles, buying SU-35s from Russia, creating a buffer zone and sending the Lausanne Treaty down the bin.
These on top of Attila-3 that is underway the last 5 months, having completely invaded the Cypriot territorial waters and drilling for gas and oil on the Italian ENI fields. (Turkey didn't dare to touch the Total fields after the French send there half their fleet earlier this year).

It seems we're entering a new chapter in Syria now

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/...0-000-displaced-people-battle-bitter-n1136846

President Bashar al-Assad’s forces have battled Turkish-backed fighters in the northwestern province of Idlib for years, but Damascus and Ankara in recent days have taken to directly targeting each other's troops. Turkey said it had retaliated on Monday after Syrian forces killed five of its soldiers in Idlib, a week after a similarly deadly clash between the two sides.

I wonder when we'll finally see some kind of peace in the region ?

If Turkey and Syria go all out against each other - Putin will throw some army trained` passionate civilans` in there , by the reinforced air mobile combat division or 2. He got away with Ukraine, and really doesnt like Turkey.

Malevolence · 14 Feb 2020 at 19:49

Does anyone like Turkey and their mad dictator? NATO only tolerates them due to their strategic location and handy airbases. It just shows what sort of a dictator he really is when he's threatening to attack Syrian troops that don't pull back from, and stop operating in, Syrian land. Personally I hope Syria, with Russian backing, royally ***** Turkey in the arse, and goes in rough and dry to boot.

Turkey/French relations seem to be rapidly deteriorating over Libya (and a sideline issue related to Cyprus) as well. France seems to be posturing with armed forces in the eastern Mediterranean.

Looks like things are getting a bit sticky between Turkey and Russia in Syria :s don't have time right now to see what is confirmed, etc.

Minusorange · 20 Feb 2020 at 16:41

Sounds more like the SAA vs Turkey than Russia, if Twitter reports are to be believed Syrian airstrike has killed 2 Turkish soldiers

And Turkey responding by killing a bunch of SAA in a chicken farm (random vid of chickens chowing down on dead soldiers lol :confused:

)
