This whole drama about the girl's twitter vanishing was carefully crafted propaganda, nobody really cared until she "vanished", and the entire planet's media went nuts, and now she magically reappears, and has a few hundred thousand more followers.

a Syrian patriot then, brave kid, respect. RIP

are you justifying the wahhabis beheading him ?
Executing captured terrorist is small crime compare to other crimes daily committed in Syria.

For example yesterday Assad terror forces bombed market in Idlib killing many civilians including little children. This crime is million times bigger.
 
US Officials: Al-Qaeda’s Loss in Aleppo Is Also America’s Loss

The way DC sees it Bin Ladenites are batting for Team USA

The increasingly public re-branding of America’s war in Syria as a proxy war against Russia has suited a lot of officials, particularly in the Pentagon, who see a new Cold War as a ticket to a bigger budget. With Russia’s fighting focusing on al-Qaeda’s Nusra Front, this Russo-centric view has seen the administration realigning US interests more directly with al-Qaeda.

Embarrassing as America’s realignment toward al-Qaeda is, officials see the defeat of the al-Qaeda-dominated rebels in Aleppo as an even bigger blow, presenting the loss of Aleppo as Russia’s victory and America’s loss, in addition to being al-Qaeda’s loss.

This “loss” is being presented by current officials as potentially hindering President-elect Donald Trump’s policy choices going forward, though since Trump was not in favor of backing al-Qaeda, or backing Syrian rebels in general, it probably makes his go-to plan of moving toward fighting ISIS even simpler to sell to the public.

In the meantime, officials committed to the current policy warn that al-Qaeda is likely to rebound from a direct defeat in Aleppo than America is going to, seeing the continued sectarian violence in the country as giving Nusra ample new fighters to recruit to keep the civil war going, even if it’s not in Aleppo.

The US by contrast has spent most of the year harping on about the need to “save” Aleppo’s “moderate” rebels, by which they mean al-Qaeda, and will have to basically start over in presenting the Islamists as a “moderate” force for change in some other battle.
 
are justifiying iraqi shia army (there is no iraqi army only) rolling over 13 years old with tank?
Not a religious person, I'm not even muslim, don't care about Shia vs Sunni. It's horrible if they're doing that in Iraq but this is about Syria, and all the opposition there are lunatics, I support the government in this war.

and like I said in another thread, the so called FSA is actually more dangerous than ISIS because certain governments, both regionally and in the west, have been legitimizing them by labeling them 'rebels'. It's led to a lot of impressionable young men from around the world to go to Syria to fight with these "heroes" only to become hardened jihadists themselves, some have gone to join ISIS.

The Turkish General Staff said its warplanes “neutralized” 23 ISIL militants in air strikes in the al-Bab city of Aleppo province in northern Syria between 10:05 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. on Dec. 7.

Three ISIL shelters, three headquarters, two checkpoints, three tanks and a bomb-laden vehicle were destroyed in the air strikes.

Earlier, the military said its warplanes carried out a separate set of air strikes in al-Bab on Dec. 6.

Four ISIL shelters, three headquarters and a tank were destroyed in the strikes.

Also, ISIL killed one Turkish soldier and wounded six other soldiers in a car bomb attack in al-Bab on the morning of Dec. 7, the military said in a statement. One of the injured soldiers is said to be in critical condition, the statement added, while an unspecified number of Turkey-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA) fighters were also wounded in the attack.

The killed soldier was identified as Specialized Sgt. Ahmet Şahin, whose body was brought to the southeastern province of Gaziantep with a helicopter, while the wounded troops and FSA fighters were flown to Gaziantep and neighboring Kilis to be treated at hospitals.

On Aug. 24, the Turkish Armed Forces launched an operation in Syria, the Euphrates Shield operation, with FSA fighters to clear the country’s southern border of both Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD) forces, which Ankara considers to be a terrorist group linked to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).

The operations are in their 106th day.

Over 215 residential areas, including more than 1,800 square kilometers of land in northern Syria have been cleared of ISIL terrorists as part of the operation so far.

Last month an air strike, which Turkey’s military initially assessed to have been carried out by the Syrian Air Force, killed four Turkish soldiers in the region. Moscow has said neither Russian nor Syrian armed forces carried out the attack.

A senior Turkish official has told the Hürriyet Daily News on Dec. 6 that an Iranian-made unmanned drone was used in the attack on Nov. 24.

Liberated Aleppo and its global implications
ADAM-24-150x150.jpg

Aleppo is almost fully free. The Syrian Arab Army, Russia and their allies have liberated one of the most important cities in the Middle East. This represents the most historically significant event in the Middle East since 2003, when Iraq was invaded and Saddam’s regime fell. It is not yet the proverbial Battle of Berlin, but it is a Stalingrad moment for the Middle East.
2003 was the beginning of a thirteen year cycle during which hell was unleashed upon the Middle East at the hands of the main NATO powers. Strong, secular, modern regimes were invaded. Cultures were eradicated, the rights of minorities destroyed. Into this power vacuum entered Islamic terrorists, the most sophisticated of which were funded by the despotic Gulf states.

Throughout this process, Syrian remained something of a ‘last man standing’ in the Arab world. President Bashar al-Assad who many dismissed as a lightweight vis-à-vis his father, has silenced all of his critics. In life, one rarely gets to choose the timing of the occasions to which one must rise, but in rising to this occasion, Syria’s President has struck a blow against several destructive forces.

When George Bush and Tony Blair started a fake war on terrorism they couldn’t have imagined in their wildest dreams that the REAL war on terrorism would be won by the Syrian Arab Republic and the Russian Federation. There is a kind of tragic yet poetic irony to this reality.

Syria has shown its neighbours and those further afield that it is possible to successfully win the fight against barbarous Islamic terrorism.

Syria has done so with a well-trained army of patriotic individuals fighting for their homeland. Furthermore, Syria has cultivated a genuine alliance of those who respect her sovereignty and her internal political processes. Russia, Iran, Hezbollah and to an extent China, have all aided Syria in the name of Syrian survival rather than Syrian regime change. One cannot fight terrorism whilst sympathising with terrorist aims of overturning a legitimate government, irrespective of the form that government takes.

Syria has also proved that the destructive force of the NATO powers can be resisted. America, Britain, France, Germany, Holland and Belgium have had few actual victories in the Middle East. Having the manpower and the ability to recruit terrorist proxies to destroy a country’s government and infrastructure represents something of a pyrrhic victory. When it comes to actually maintaining anything resembling a country in the aftermath of such an invasion, NATO has failed spectacularly.

In Syria they tried to destroy the country, but were stopped short of regime change. This has made resisting and ultimately winning battles against terrorist occupation possible.

John Kerry, Samantha Power and Ashton Carter have tried their hardest to manipulate the diplomatic process in Syria so as to buy time for their terrorist proxies whose shared, unilateral goal is the overthrow of the Syrian government.

But whilst Russia remained largely quiet when Iraq and Libya were being destroyed, this time a collective statement of ‘enough is enough’ emanated from the Russian Foreign Ministry. Sergey Lavrov’s steadfast leadership throughout the Syria crisis has guaranteed that the diplomatic and political booby-traps set by the West would not taint the process nor hinder the efforts of the men on the ground doing the fighting.

The political victory for Lavrov’s brand of intelligent, informed, dignified and unwavering negotiating is as critical as the military victory against the terrorist forces. With Aleppo liberated, John Kerry won’t have anything left to negotiate for. All chips are off the table. Lavrov has won, Kerry has lost.

The victory in Aleppo will also send shockwaves through the region. Attempts by Saudi Arabia and Qatar to colonise the Arab world through exporting their sinister Wahhabi ideology at gun point, has hit a brick wall. Syria has shown that for all of their money and evil intent, a well-trained army of the people backed by powerful allies can stop the Gulf tyrants who must rely on terrorist mercenaries to fight their battles as their own soldiers can barely fire their expensive American and British guns.

President Erdogan’s ambitions to re-conquer Ottoman holdings in the Arab world has also been set-back. Turkey will either have to abandon her ambitions in Syria completely or else join the constructive efforts to re-build the country on the terms set by Damascus and Moscow. The likelihood is that Erdogan will continue to shift his focus to Iraq whose comparatively weak central government is less equipped to stand up to illegal Turkish incursions into the north of the country.

Finally, for those who lack a sufficiently sound heart to celebrate the victory of secular Syria over terrorism, perhaps they will have enough of a head to realise that in halting the progress of ISIS, Al-Qaeda, the Free Syrian Army and other terrorist groups, Syria has helped make the world a safer place.

I firmly believe that someday people will look back at December 2016 and recall the heroic struggle of Syria, Russia and their other allies against Islamic terrorism. They will feel shame at how their own governments have failed to keep them safe and they’ll say, thank you President Assad and thank you President Putin for doing so.

The war is not over, Raqqa, Deir ez-Zor and other eastern regions of Syria must also be liberated. Aleppo, whilst free, will need to be rebuilt. A great deal of work lies ahead, but the tied has sufficiently turned and a decisive blow has been struck against the forces of evil.
