Turkish Peace Operations in Syria (Operation Olive Branch) Updates & Discussions

Why would Russia take in jihadists? Russia never armed those jihadists or invited them into Syria. Go complain to Turkey, the Arabs and the US about that.
I was being sarcastic. Take in refugees and then gloat about aid. But you label whoever you want a jihadist and wipe your hands clean...

No country has done more to help civilians in Syria then Russia despite all the crying and negative press the Arabs, Europe and the US gives to Russia.

Russia has treated 1,500 patients and donated 60 makeshift hospital pods, Russia has donated medical equipment, Russia has sent nurses and doctors. Russia has flown seriously wounded people to Russia for medical treatment. Russia has clearnes mines and IED, Russia has delivered 100s of tons of aid over the past year. Russia has sent MPs to protect civilians.

What else would you like? What has all those other countries that bitch at Russia done?

Hard to tell.

Yesterday, some plonker on twitter said that the Turkish army finally entered al-Bab, so I posted the news here. Later on, it turned out the news was fake.

It's really hard to tell what's going on in al-Bab right now.

Turkey claims to have killed at least 1000 ISIS fighters since the start of the Euphrates Shield operations. I personally think this number is exaggerated.

In my opinion, ISIS has probably lost only a couple of hundred fighters since August 2016.

You have to bear in mind that most of the battles so far have consisted of only several dozen fighters on both sides. The war against ISIS remains a low intensity conflict, even on the Kurdish and Iraqi fronts.

Turkey will eventually capture al-Bab, in my opinion, so nobody should really be worried about that.

The question is what comes after al-Bab's liberation. Will Turkey hand the city over to the Russians and Syrian regime forces, or will Turkey annex it or turn the Azaz-Jarabulus corridor into some sort of a Turkmen autonomous region? Nobody knows for sure.

A more important issue is how will ISIS react against Turkey's eventual takeover of al-Bab? The thing about ISIS is that it is continuing to successfully launch suicide attacks in places that are currently held by Turkish troops in northern Syria. Just a few days ago, at least 12 FSA fighters were killed in Sawran by an ISIS VBIED.

That's the real challenge that Turkey faces. ISIS's goal is to continue destabilizing the territories held by its opponents until they're weak and exhausted enough to collapse. After all, this is how ISIS took over Anbar province and Mosul in the first place. It carried out so many VBIED attacks over the course of 3-4 years until the Iraqi army and local governments finally collapsed and paved way for an ISIS takeover in these areas.

The problem with these Salafi-jihadist groups is that they have a lot of sleeper cells and covert followers.

Turkey must sever its ties with all Islamist groups in Syria because none of them are trustworthy. A lot of them have ISIS sleeper agents.

I don't know whether some random guy on Twitter is the plonker or the guy sharing the Twitter is the plonker, both I suspect.

You are the one talking about and complaining about refugees, not me. I'm also not a government representative so I don't know why you keep telling me to take refugees.

Like I said Russia has done everything from clearing mines, to building field hospitals, to negotiate safe passage for civilians to provide hundreds of tons of aid and it has also taken refugees.

And you're the one crowing and the one who calls anyone who isn't a Assad-fanboy a jihadist.

Rakka...

Raqqa would require at least 10 000 soldiers on ground and thats an optimistic estimate. Its also means at least a thousand dead or wounded and tens of destroyed vehicles. Not to mention its way too far from the border. Doesnt worth. Rest of Syria is none of our concern. Turkey should not lead the operation on Raqqa. It should be part of it at most.
