Tehran and Moscow harbor no illusions – and are preparing accordingly. The war on BRICS is just getting started.

Syria as we knew it is being eviscerated in real time – in geographic, cultural, economic and military terms – by an appalling confluence of mercenary Rent-a-Jihadi mobs and psychopathological genocidals praying at the altar of Eretz Israel.

All of that is fully supported by rabid NATOstan hyenas – masters of narrative control – and fully intertwined with the eradication of Palestine.

Across the avowedly dejected Global Majority, there’s a feeling that the momentarily exhausted Axis of Resistance will need to go turbo-Sisyphus to rearrange, resupply and recalibrate the defense of Palestine.

Predictably, there’s not a peep across the NATOstan sphere about Tel Aviv’s feral, indiscriminate bombing and snatching of sovereign Syrian territory. That represents a glaring illustration of the “rules-based international order” in action.

Collective West Think Tankland is in rapture. Chatham House preaches a Syrian rebuilding in this “watershed moment” led by the U.S., EU, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye, capable of “forging a consensus around Syria” that “could serve as the foundation for a new regional order.”

The rabidly anti-BRICS Center for a New American Security (CNAS) demands “expelling Russia’s military presence” from Syria and “to close the country as an avenue for Iran’s power projection.”

The Axis of Resistance is being mourned across the spectrum. Not so fast. The deeper meaning of the “ceasefire” between Israel and Hezbollah is that the psycho-pathologicals, for all practical purposes, were defeated, even if they wreaked horrendous havoc on southern Lebanon and Beirut’s suburbs.

Changing the narrative – and the focus – to the Greater Idlibistan offensive allowed an avowedly massive tactical victory not only for Eretz Israel goons but for the assembled NATOstan/Turkiye combo. Yet the real nitty-gritty starts now, even as the partition of Syria is already in effect.

The Rent-a-Jihadi mob, in theory under the control of the aspiring Caliph of Al-Sham, the Saudi al-Jolani, real name Ahmad Ibrahim al-Sha’a, sooner or later may turn against the Eretz Israel project, considering they entertain cozy relations with Hamas in Gaza.

At least for the moment, everything is swell for the Oded Yinon and/or Bernard Lewis plan to subdue West Asia via time-tested Divide and Rule. This harks back not only to Sykes-Picot in 1917, but even earlier, to 1906, when British PM Henry Campbell-Bannerman asserted that,

“There are people [Arabs] who control spacious territories teeming with manifest and hidden resources. They dominate the intersections of world routes. Their lands were the cradles of human civilizations and religions.”

So if these “people” united, they would then “take the fate of the world into its hands and would separate Europe from the rest of the world.”

Ergo, the necessity of “a foreign body” [later constituted as Israel] to be “planted in the heart of this nation to prevent the convergence of its wings in such a way that it could exhaust its powers in never-ending wars. It could also serve as a springboard for the West to gain its coveted objects.”

Pirates of the Levant

The Eretz Israel hallucination does not exactly mingle with Sultan Erdogan’s neo-Ottoman dream, even though they coincide in the broader urge to redraw the map of the Eastern Mediterranean and West Asia.

As for the Exceptionalists, they can barely believe their luck. In a swoop, they just gobbled up the key strategic node of a now buried idea: Arabism, or anti-imperialism in the Levant.

Ever since Barack Obama, in the early 2010s, declared war on Syria under orders from Tel Aviv, the Empire of Chaos had thrown everything and the kitchen sink at Damascus for at least 13 years: the longest and most expensive regime change campaign in U.S. history, complete with toxic, forced-starvation sanctions – until suddenly the big prize fell on their lap.

The prize involves – in theory – smashing an ally of three top BRICS, Russia, Iran and China, with the added bonus of turning it into a geoeconomic black hole while doctoring the narrative to sell “the end of the dictator” to the Global Majority as the precondition for the rise of a new Dubai.

We still don’t know how rump Syria will look like – and even for how long it will be governed by a bunch of neoliberal Salafi-jihadis with trimmed beards and cheap new off-the-rack suits.

The fact is the Hegemon is already controlling at least a third of Syrian territory for at least a decade – and will continue to steal Syrian oil and wheat with absolute impunity: Pirates of the Levant in full regalia.

Playing the role of sidekick, the UK’s MI6 will continue to excel in providing P.R. ops, across-the-board lobbying and gun-running opportunities for the gullible motley crew of mercenary Salafi-jihadis.

When it comes to Tel Aviv, they are destroying Eretz Israel’s largest remaining Arab military opposition; stealing/annexing land non-stop; and dreaming of total domination, aerial and naval, in case Russia loses its bases in Tartus and Hmeimim (that’s a major “if”). Not to mention they somewhat indirectly control the new Caliph, who has meekly asked them to please, don’t conquer too much Syrian land.

The partition will proceed along three other major vectors.

  1. Hegemon-controlled land and military bases – which might be used to attack Iraq. Forget about a fake sovereign Syria recovering their oil fields.
  2. Turkiye-annexed land which will inevitably lead to the full absorption of Aleppo (already proclaimed by the Sultan on the record).
  3. Damascus run by an ISIS offshoot directly manipulated by Turkish intel.

All of the above might lead, already in the first quarter of 2025, to a sort of Salafi-Jihadi Zionization arrangement with just one objective: to ease sanctions from the U.S. and the EU.

As for al-Jolani, real name Ahmad Ibrahim al-Sha’a, for all his woke rebranding, he was Al-Zarkawi’s lieutenant and Emir of Nineveh during the al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI, later reconverted as ISIS) rampage in Mesopotamia. There’s no way Baghdad will have political relations with a Salafi-jihadi who’s on Iraq’s most wanted list.

ORDER IT NOW

An additional headache is the EU’s conditions for normalizing Syria, as spelled out by the unelected batshit crazy Estonian responsible for its foreign policy (and representing nearly 500 million European citizens): Brussels will only lift sanctions if there are no Russian bases and “Russian influence” left in the Caliphate of al-Sham.

Meanwhile, the Empire of Chaos will continue its plunder – in conjunction with Israel. The Syrian oil stolen by the Americans is sold by the Kurds to Israel in Erbil with a huge discount. After all, this oil is “free” – as in stolen. At least 40% of Israel’s oil comes from the Erbil racket.

And it gets worse.

Israel has annexed the Al-Wahda dam in the basin of the Yarmouk river, close to the city of Al-Qusayr in the Dara’a governorate, and near the Jordanian border. This dam provides at least 30% of Syria’s water and 40% of Jordan’s water.

Everything is so predictable: what the NATOstan/Israel combo really wants is an amputated, disaggregated, vulnerable Syria.

Empire of Chaos goes Full Anarchy

Yet the whole toxic equation is far from over. Aspiring Caliph Jolani may be tempted to allow Russia to keep its bases – and to transport their weapons systems out of the country intact. He is in close contact with Moscow, and HTS is de facto protecting Russian assets.

In parallel, Hezbollah signaled it is willing to “cooperate” with HTS, which by the way is also protecting the Iranian embassy in Damascus. ​​

There is no evidence whatsoever that the Greater Idlibistan invasion was a Trojan Horse agreed on the negotiating table by the – dead – “Astana process” even before the fateful Doha meeting on Saturday, January 7.

What is certain is that the analysis in Moscow and Beijing privileges the Long Big Picture. The Chinese for now are extremely circumspect on the record about the whole Syrian drama, apart from declaring themselves “ready to play a constructive role”. Beijing and Moscow see Syria as a temporary setback on BRICS inflicted by an Empire on Desperation Row, along with its equally desperate Eretz Israel ally and a Sultan biting more than he can chew.

The lame duck Biden combo is absolutely clueless on the emergence of a – possible – Israeli-Turkish hegemonic vector in a key node of West Asia. The only thing that matters for Straussian neo-cons and their Tel Aviv psycho-apocalyptic buddies, when it comes to the disintegration of Syria, is the window of opportunity ahead for Israel to attack Iran.

The Times of Israel is in rapture: while previously the “IAF would not fly directly over Damascus when carrying out strikes on Iran-linked targets in the capital, it now can.”

The key to unlock the whole riddle may lie, once again, with Jolani. Everything in West Asia is always in perpetual flux. Only a few days after the fall of Damascus, Sultan Erdogan as well as NATO have refused to help Jolani against the Israeli onslaught in Syria.

Talk about the aspiring Caliphate’s “sovereignty”.

So where Jolani could turn to in a quest for possible allies? And who can he rely on to impose some order in totally disaggregated Syria – including air power to fight ISIS pockets across the desert?

Enter Tehran and Moscow. Ergo, the back channels on overdrive. They would not bat an eye when it comes to “cooperating” with the infant Caliphate – as long as their national interests are not threatened.

The Empire of Chaos will remain unmatched in terms of narrative control, P.R. stunts, monopolizing social media spheres and non-stop psy war. All hybrid fronts. But that’s about it.

The Empire was miserably defeated in both Afghanistan and Iraq. And continues to be humiliated by the Houthis in the Red Sea. Washington has less than zero advantage over Russia on the military sphere – except on electronic warfare (EW), at least on the West Asian theatre, and ISR (Russia is catching up), which instantly translates into inflicting more and more terror.

As for Iran, it’s far from weaker now than before the fall of Damascus. That’s imperial narrative spin, inbuilt in the self-pleasing Exceptionalist mechanism. Ayatollah Khamenei, a fine strategist, does not waste his words. Tehran will eventually develop an alternative supply chain to Hezbollah and the West Bank.

Besides, follow the money. The Iranian Foreign Ministry has already noted that “the new Syrian government will take on all of Syria’s financial obligations to Iran.” That’s a lot of money – that Jolani does not have.

Michael Hudson is adamant: “Anarchy is what the U.S. plan is.” This being West Asia, where backstabbing is an art, there will be blowback. Tehran and Moscow harbor no illusions – and are preparing accordingly. The war on BRICS is just getting started.

    The genocidal Iranian Hamas attack on October 7 backfired. It forced Israel into immediate hostage rescue action. The result was humiliation of Khamenei. Iranian Hamas wiped out. Iranian Hezbollah left leaderless in disarray.

    Khamenei’s failures showed weakness, exploited by Erdogan. There is no evidence that Erdogan coordinated the Turkish HTS advance with Israel. Just the opposite, both Israel and “Team Biden” appear to have been caught flat footed. Was there a deal between Erdogan and Putin? It is possible, but no one has released conclusive evidence for or against.

    Erdogan’s Greater Türkiye plan is based on Ottoman empire boundaries.

    Is the next step Kurdish areas of Syria? It certainly looks like the most pressing issue. A rump Kurdistan would ruin his dreams. Taking the land is achievable. However, it will require both Turkish HTS and regular forces. Capture is only step 1. It will be followed by a lengthy Afghan style insurgency.

    Erdogan would like to roll up Lebanon, then Israel, then Egypt. None of that can start until the Kurdish front is resolved. There is time for diplomacy to work, if Erdogan is willing to be reasonable.

    No one trusts Russia or Putin. The Representative of Russia at the UN mainly talked about the PARTITION of Syria and nothing else. Why is that? Russia colluded with Israel and the West supporting ‘greater Israel’, let Assad falls, to get concession in Ukraine, like what Russia did in Libya, otherwise her representative at the UN would have not talked about PARTITION and instead should have talked about INTEGRITY of Syria like what Iran did.
    I neither trust Russia nor you. Shame on Russia, an ally of Netanyahu and the Jewish mafia tribe and supporter of ‘greater Israel’. Death to greater Israel and its supporters.

    I think of it like this: the “new Caliph” are Islamofascists (named by jews and Neocons, aka Judeofascists — who are in fact working for Judeofascists, eg ISIS).

    So the Judeofascists created, cultivated and promoted the Islamofascists. And in fact, many Islamofacists are jews!

    Complete idiots and corrupt, politically correct (kosher), “Woke” dilettantes and hebroids demand: “Don’t use the word Islamofacist! Don’t use the word Judeofacist. They’re racist and bigoted and anti-Semitic!

    Never mind that the kosher cult is the most racist, bigoted, misanthropic and misogynistic, Satanic bunch of mass murderers in history. And their stupid and corrupt lickspittle are Satan’s apprentice. These are all the nests of vipers an dens of thieves referred to in scripture by the man who named the Synagogue of Satan.

Syria is one of only two nations (the second is Belarus) to have hosted a Russian military base.

    Not so sure about that. Trump just appointed Michael Anton to State Department’s director of policy and planning.

    Anton is one of the top Straussians in the U.S. and he is a hardcore supporter of Trump and America first foreign policy.

    President-elect Donald Trump’s selection of Michael Anton to be the State Department’s director of policy and planning bodes well for the country’s foreign policy…Michael Anton is famous in conservative circles for his 2016 essay in support of Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy titled, “The Flight 93 Election,” wherein he urged conservatives and Republicans to charge forward like the brave passengers on that doomed airplane to save the country from the rot of progressivism… Michael Anton appears to be intellectually well-positioned to not only revive the importance of the Policy Planning Staff but also to steer it in a direction that will carry out Trump’s America First agenda. He could become the George Kennan of Cold War II…

They assisted the Americans in preventing the destruction of the terrorist. Every time they faced defeat the Americans rescued them with Russian collaboration. How come after nine years Russia failed to defeat them, how come Russia allowed Israel to continually bomb Syria for years, how come Russia never freed Syrian oil fields and agriculture from American grip???

    No evidence? Ha! Ha! Ha! The proof is in the pudding!

    Our BRICS cheerleader is a propagandist. How do we know? He does not even CONSIDER the possibility that Russia sold out Syria in order to promote the Zionist dream of Greater Israel. Surely that’s, at minimum, a possibility? Putin’s pom pom boy also does not ask why Russia did not provide Syria with either oil or allow them to shoot down Israeli jets. He doesn’t go into the details of the ‘collapse’. Did Russia in fact help engineer the collapse? Or why, if this is such a bad whack on BRICS, did not China pay Syrian soldiers as mercenaries just as NATO paid the headchoppers?

    Instead we are directed to frame the recent events in a certain way that absolves both Russia and China and by omission discourages obvious questions about how Syria, despite being allies with the supposedly very powerful triumvirate of Russia, China, Iran, fell in a New York Minute to at the most 30,000 mercenaries.

    Everything said in this essay in support of the Russia-China-Iran strategy vis a vis NATO is simply wishful thinking given what we have seen until now from BRICS heavyweights Russia-China.

    Are they living in total oblivion or are they in fact globalist wannabes? Apparently, top analysts from Russia have no clue about what’s going on in the world. For example they see the war in Donbass to be of more urgency and value than their getting involved in west Asia. This imbecilic narrative among Russian thinkers fails to understand that NATO’s full spectrum global dominance hinges upon control of Middle Eastern energy. Without it NATO cannot wage proxy wars around Russia western borders, against China via Taiwan or on Gaza and Lebanon.

    NATO partners (puppets states) in the Persian Gulf make sure the global market is always fully saturated according to western rules which then helps NATO (US, UK, Israel, France, Turkiye…) forever bankroll their war projects and sanctions including against Russia, Taiwan, Venezuela, Iran, Gaza, Lebanon, Georgia…etc.

    Right after Syrian government’s collapse, a Russia analyst said something like an inch of Novorussia worth a million times more than what happens in the Middle East! Putin basically sees Middle East to be a complex mosaic of different tribes/factions with deeply rooted history of conflicts etc.

    Whatever China, Russia and Iran are doing must first and foremost focus on the strengthening of their control over the events in the Middle East. There’s no future for a BRICS new world order without them having a big say in this region. In fact there would no future for China and Russia as sovereign independent nations if they somehow failed in this important mission. Donbass, Taiwan… are only sideshows.

    There are no rivalries between Israel and Turkiye over Syria. It’s just a game they are playing. Ankara’s newly announced Turanian Empire stretching from the Mediterranean to Chinese border is a NATO project with the aim of breaking up the BRI, NS corridor and BRICS in one shot. Once Syria stabilizes, NATO will move on to Azerbaijan via the Zangezur corridor then Central Asia next on to China. Despite knowing Turkiye – as a NATO member – is never allowed to drink a glass of water without prior permission from its masters, Russian strategist see no problems about the Zangezur but view it as an economically promising development for the future of the region!!

    Afraid the BRICS, BRI and a new multipolar world order will end up as the biggest hoax in history, unless China or Russia begin to strengthen Iran with all necessary hardware including nukes asap.

    Instead we are directed to frame the recent events in a certain way that absolves both Russia and China and by omission discourages obvious questions about how Syria, despite being allies with the supposedly very powerful triumvirate of Russia, China, Iran, fell in a New York Minute to at the most 30,000 mercenaries.

    Calling these ISIS 2.0 punks out of Idlib “Mercenaries” is to flatter them.

    When most think of mercenaries they think of ex-Military, highly trained killers. The ISIS-type mercenaries are mostly undisciplined, minimally trained drug dealers and street criminals; the 35%-Muslim city of Brussels has streets crawling with these types of losers with criminal records.

    The 30,000 Muslim “mercenaries” (mostly Muslim trash) that took Syria could have been defeated by 5,000 genuine mercenaries, the European types that fought in Africa back in the 60’s and 70’s, the type of mercenary that Frederick Forsyth wrote about in his book The Dogs of War.

    Genuine, highly-trained, and yes, white mercenaries, 5,000 of which would have defeated the 30,000 Muslim-punk “mercenaries” that took Syria:

    These Muslim ISIS punks are the same as the 30,000 so-called “mercenaries” that took Syria; they are the same low-life criminal Muslim punks you can see standing around on street corners in any major city in Western Europe, especially in Brussels, today:

    To be honest. I don’t give a flip about Hamas. Only women, children, Palestinians against Hamas and Palestinian Christians.

    Israel is absolutely justified in wiping out Hamas but not anyone else if they could help it.

    Your thoughts are sane legitimate ones.

    One would think that one of the many Muslim countries near Gaza would take in these women and children temporarily (being fellow Muslims, members of their wonderful umma…and all that) during this time of brutal war, and that the wealthy oil-rich Muslim countries would pay the costs. Apparently the Muslim world doesn’t want to touch the “Palestinians” with a 10-foot pole; their terrible past behavior in Jordan and elsewhere has not been forgotten; Muslims do not want to take the chance of being stuck with these indoctrinated, welfare-addicted, “Palestinians.”

    By the time this Israel-Hamas war is completely wrapped up those two-million Gazans will, more than likely, end up on welfare – forever – in the non-Muslim West and they with worship in new Saudis-built mosques. It’ll be another reason for Western citizens to have utter contempt for their destructive, society-ruining, even traitorous leaders.

    Yes, children being shot, “shredded,” blown to piece is obscene; that’s exactly what happened in war, that’s what has happened to millions of children in the last hundred years; not to mention the thousands vaporized in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We ALL have that blood on our hands so don’t kid yourself, Israel is doing in Gaza what Hamas would have done in Israel if they had the upper hand.

    My question is: Considering all the death and destruction in Gaza, where is the Muslim World and its vaunted umma? The Muslim world is vast with its dozens of countries, with its close to two billion inhabitants, with its sheikdoms awash in cash, yet no Muslim nation has taken in even a single one of Gaza’s children to protect from the horrific carnage. With two million Gazans confined to 170 square miles of area, evacuating them would be a relatively easy task if only there was the will to do it. It’s obvious that the Muslim world would rather watch Gazan children die than to take the chance of taking them in and then being stuck with them.

    As I have said before: By the time the dust has settled in Gaza all two million Gazans have a much better chance of being on welfare in Dublin than working in Dubai (taking from the non-Muslim world instead of contributing to the Muslim world).

    Weak European leaders (e.g. Scholz, Macron, Starmer) do not have the capability to pull this off. Likely successors such as Farage and recently Merz are openly opposed. There will be no mass contamination of Christendom with millions of Muslim colonists departing Gaza.

    Just the opposite. European countries are being very nice to Turkish HTS and its wanted leader. These nations are looking to remigrate Syrian refugees back home.

    UNRWA is being thrown out of Muslim occupied Judea, Samaria, and Gaza. The dole is coming to and end. This will encourage emigration.

    Iranian Hamas, destroyed the Gaza aquifer. Therefore Islam exclusively owns the problem of supporting Muslims in Gaza. How will the greater Islamic community of nations act? There are three broad options:

    -A- Provide fresh water to Gaza via pipeline and/or desalination.
    -B- Help Muslim occupiers relocate to authentic Muslim lands.
    -C- Leave their coreligionists to suffer in squalor.

    Neither A nor C is a viable long term solution. Ultimately, that leaves B. Most likely a Right of Religious Return so Muslims can stop squatting on Christian and Jewish land. Perhaps the impending partition of Syria, Lebanon, and (possibly) Iraq can establish a New Muslim Palestine on Islamic lands.

    Russia colluded with Israel and the West supporting ‘greater Israel’, let Assad falls, to get concession in Ukraine, like what Russia did in Libya, otherwise her representative at the UN would have not talked about PARTITION and instead should have talked about INTEGRITY of Syria like what Iran did.

    Former Communist Russia has a large Judefascist fifth-column within. They ran the country from days of Bolshevism, right on through the collapse of the Soviet Union, murdering, desecrating and demoralizing as many Russian Christians as possible along the way. Their Judas Class allies helped them and profiteered with them along the way. After the fall, Judeofascist Neocons like “liberal Harvard Boy” ((Sachs)) then went in and divided up the spoils with his brethren, again desecrating and destroying as many White Christians as possible. These organized criminals and treason-doers are holding the nation hostage, using ZOG-Ukraine and ZOG-US to menace the nation. In fact, the Judeofascist fifth column is engaged in a similar project in the ZOG-U.S.

    Islam has its own Judas Class problem, and in fact millions of Judas Class (“Islamofascist’) Muslims are in bed with the Judeofascists, and intertwined with them. For example, the Wahhabi House of Saud (which did 9/11 with the Judeofascists and the kosher, fake-“liberal” Deep State), and factions in Turkey.

    Dumb, sick and corrupt rubes don’t realize how large the Synagogue of Satan really is, they don’t realize how large the Judas Class really is, and don’t realize that they’re all ultimately doomed to become mindless slaves of ZOG and Satan unless they beat back the Judeofascist menace and their Judas Class lickspittle once and for all — as Moses once tried to do, and as Christendom continued to do before ZOG got a foot in the British-Anglo Empire’s door via the ((Cousinhood)), aka the “Rothschilds”, and via other Judas Class rubes like the Illuminati and Napoleon earlier.

    The Judeofascists work for Satan and always have. Kosher “liberals” like ((Sachs)) sometimes develop pangs of guilt and try to make amends, but they never name the Judeofascists nor their boss (Satan), nor do they return the stolen loot that enriched them earlier in their careers with the Synagogue of Satan.

    Trump and Putin have the same problem Judas had and Jack Torrance had: They’ve sold their souls, and they can’t return the filthy lucre. “Your money is no good here” in the Synagogue of Satan.

    There will be no mass contamination of Christendom with millions of Muslim colonists departing Gaza.

    Even without the Gazans coming, the West has been so overrun with third-world welfare-lifers (tens-of-millions of them being Muslims and their offspring) that the West is too far gone to pull itself out of its death spiral.

    I truly want your beliefs about coming Western leaders and self-deporting Muslims to be correct and my beliefs to be incorrect, but I feel that won’t happen, that it’s too late to set the West’s course right. The West was “sold down river” by its nation-ruining leaders too long ago (1964’s Immigration Act being a red-letter date for the USA) and now it’s too late to set things right.

    All a Western citizen can realistically do is to prepare themselves and their own families for the worst to come since they have zero ability in changing the fall of their nation. Individuals have a much better chance of saving themselves – at least temporarily – than they do in saving their society. And anyone who thinks Trump is going to change America around, to save the day for “The American Way,” is deluded; at best Trump may buy us some time – four years – in postponing the inevitable collapse.

    Russia disbanded the Warsaw pact while US did not disband NATO but started absorbing former Warsaw Pact members.

    Russia has a history of attacking its neighbors which predates both Communism and the US.

    Putin underscored the need for NATO by attacking Ukraine. He in fact drove Finland and Sweden out of neutrality.

    I think there was a period where it was fair to question the existence of NATO but Putin chose to reenact age old Russian imperialism. Smaller countries like Estonia do not regret joining NATO after the invasion of Ukraine. Russian TV hosts in fact speak of the Baltics as if they belong to Russia.

    It’s terrible to watch these children and women getting slaughtered by the Israelis but if any country took the entire population of Gaza as refugees they would be accomplices in the ethnic cleansing/ genocide of the Palestinian people. The Israelis would repeat the same in the West Bank, and in fact they have already started, and then the dream of Palestinians ever reclaiming their land would die forever. Anyone accepting to resettle the Palestinians en masse would be an accomplice in the greatest crime ever – genocide, not something anyone is prepared to do, except perhaps immoral Westerners who would then paint this criminal action as some kind of “humanitarian” effort and stupidly pride themselves on their “empathy”.

    My problem with Arabs/Muslims is that they don’t get together and kick those Jews out of Palestine, not that they won’t accept more Palestinian refugees than they’ve already got. But yeah, Palestinians generally don’t make good refugees/immigrants.

    Maybe this is a defeat for Iran and Russia but nothing like the defeat of US in Afghanistan. Syria was attacked by Turkey, Israel and Jihadis while in Afghanistan mighty NATO only had to deal with the Taliban. Furthermore Russians and Iranians did not run like cowardly Yanks from Kabul. In fact the Iranian withdrawal was orderly and the Russians are still there.

    Also, the loss of Afghanistan is a strategic defeat for US as it failed to secure the eastern flank of its future target, and Russian and Chinese supplies to Iran will run through Afghanistan.

    This isn’t over and it has a long way to go. Turkey will never achieve its New Ottoman Empire and Israel will never get its Zion from the river to the river; there are just too many factors in the way.

They could have supported Iran and Syria during the past 11 years so there could have been no need Syrian generals accepting puny $1000 bribes for leaving the battlefield once those rented Jihadists backed by NATO moved on Damascus. Russia however never lifted a finger during all those years.

    Every strategy Iran had planned about Syria it also had to carefully watch Russian strategy then every time the only recommendation was to stand still, doing nothing. The biggest problem is if Iran falls so would be Russia-China next. Moreover, Russia and China today have their best chances of checkmating NATO in just one sweeping move through supplying Iran with all military hardware it needs. If that were to happen the world will immediately switches to a multipolar one helping future of the BRICS immensely. NATO might decide wage WW3 but then so what? If a BRICS multipolar order can’t materialize then there will be no more Russia and China anyway as independent sovereign nations.

    ‘No Civilians. Everyone’s a Terrorist’: IDF Soldiers Expose Arbitrary Killings and Rampant Lawlessness in Gaza’s Netzarim Corridor – (archived) – Haaretz
    ‘Of 200 bodies, only 10 were confirmed as Hamas members’: IDF soldiers who served in Gaza tell Haaretz that anyone who crosses an imaginary line in the contested Neztarim corridor is shot to death, with every Palestinian casualty counting as a terrorist – even if they were just a child

    The Neztarim corridor is a line from the eastern border of Gaza to the ocean. The Zionist smashed all buildings in the are to separate norther Gaza from the south. Every day the soldiers who ‘guard’ the corridor are ordered to commit arbitrary murder:

    The Netzarim corridor, a seven-kilometer-wide strip of land, stretches from near Kibbutz Be’eri to the Mediterranean coast. The IDF has emptied this area of Palestinian residents and demolished their homes to construct military roads and military positions.
    While Palestinians are officially prohibited from entering, the reality is more severe than a simple exclusion zone. “It’s military whitewashing,” explains a senior officer in Division 252, who has served three reserve rotations in Gaza. “The division commander designated this area as a ‘kill zone.’ Anyone who enters is shot.”

    the dream of Palestinians ever reclaiming their land would die forever. Anyone accepting to resettle the Palestinians en masse would be an accomplice in the greatest crime ever

    The only surviving, indigenous religions of Palestine are Christianity and Judaism. Palestinian Jews and Christians have dreamt of reclaiming their land for over 1,000 years.

    Islam is an inherently non-Palestinian religion. It arrived by force ~600 AD. Even Muslims admit this timeline is accurate. Muslim colonists occupying Judea, Samaria, and Gaza are participants in the greatest crime ever.

    Helping Muslim colonists in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza return home to their authentic Islamic homeland is ultimately the only answer. Gaza barely supports the current 2MM+ Muslim occupiers. Gaza’s population could reach 4MM by 2050, leading to total collapse.

    Why do Muslims serve as camp guards keeping their coreligionists in? 70+ years of history show that this is a failed strategy. It only makes things worse. Is there no place in the entire greater Islamic community (population ~ 2 Billion) to provide a Right of Religious Return to a few million Muslim colonists stuck squatting on Christian and Jewish land?

    Christendom, for obvious reasons, will not accept millions of unassimilable Muslims. However, these charitable nations would be willing to put in funding to help honourable and compensated religious returns. Reclaiming Bethlehem as a Christian city would involve buying out the current non-Christian landowners.

    why should the Gazans be forced to leave? It’s their land.

    if it’s such a simple thing to expel a few million usurpers, then obviously it’s the Jewish supremacist illegal colonists that need to GTFO

    As has been pointed out, your map shows they have no business being there, and more to the point, their collective delusions of superiority and their genocidal murder-lust, (codified in their covenant of Talmudic hate), means that as long as they’re there, there is going to be hatred and strife and killings.

    It is written.

    Purge this menace from the Holy Land. Send the Jews back to whence they came. End this Holocaust of Palestinians of this 21st century.

    Investigate 9/11, and prosecute to the n’th of the law, every one of those murderous fiends who orchestrated the horrific murder of 3000 American souls, so that these Jews could steal more land, like they’re trying to do in Syria, as I write this.

    There is no moral ambiguity over who is right and who is wrong in Palestine.

    The Jews used terrorism and murder to steal the homes and farms of the Palestinians. And no chorus of Western media liars and corrupt politicians of the West, is going to make that truth disappear, no matter how many “Christian” evangelicals scrunch their eyes closed in ‘prayer’ for their thousand year rapture.

    The Jews squatting on Palestinians land are going to have to leave. The Jews trying to steal parts of Syria, will be rebuffed.

    This century, ((after 9/11)), was intended to be like the last one. A ‘Jewish century’, of genocide and wars and horrors writ large. But for that to happen, the people of the Western world must continue to be lied to. And slowly, inexorably, those lies are being undone.

    I appreciate Pepe’s insights, even if they’re not always objective, he knows more about these things than I do. And then we get the comments, that point out his errors, and in the whole, looking over the entirety of events, we try to piece together what’s happening, and what’s likely to happen.

    Will Russia stay in Syria?

    How much land is Israel going to try to steal?

    Ditto Turkey and the other bad actors.

    One thing that is unmistakable, is the rancid stench of hypocrisy from the West, who screech their bile because ‘sovereign borders are sacrosanct!!!

    Unless it’s Kosovo, or Palestine, or Syria, or any other sovereign border that ZOG considers inconvenient.

    I used to wish that hypocrisy was painful. Then I wished it was excruciating. Now I wish it is deadly.

    I’d like to see every scumbag who blubbers about ‘inviolate Ukrainian sovereign territory’, but then dismisses Israeli claims to Syrian territory, or that the Gazans need to evacuate, I’d like to see them all have agonizing aneurysms of the brain, and twitch on live video, frothing at the mouth, jerking uncontrollably, and as they do, are suffering every slight, every wrong, every bullet and grenade and suffering through starvation and loss, that the Palestinians have endured for several generations now, as the people causing it, are busy extorting more money out of Germans and Americans to build more ‘Holocaust’ museums, because ‘genocide is the worst evil there has ever been!’

    I’m starting to think hypocrisy is the worst evil there is, and I’m starting to wish that every cock sucking hypocrite, dies a suitable death, but not before they suffer, like the Palestinians and Syrians and Ukrainians and Russians and untold millions upon millions of people suffer and die, all to the hypocritical sanctimony of repulsive, evil people.

    It seems a difficult thing, when ZOG controls the U.S. and UK, (and much of Western Europe), in near absolute terms.

    I don’t have to tell you about the jumping seals at Netanyaho’s appearance in the “people’s” chamber.

    D.C. has been ((co-opted)), and we’ve all witnessed how eager those treasonous scumbags are to serve ZOG, (and betray America and their oaths) like slavish dogs on a leash.

    They’ve even treasonously relinquished their role to declare war, and now cravenly rely on the ((White House)) to ‘keep us all safe’, and bomb any nation on any whim.

    So it’s a razors edge, that Russia and Iran and other nations in ZOG’s crosshairs, have to parse.

    I too would have loved to see Russian S-500 defensive positions blow the Israeli jets out of the Syrian sky. I think we all would. But everyone seems to be walking on egg shells.

    If nothing else, I would like to see the new regime in D.C., repudiate the whole post-WWII idiocy of Murka as the ‘exceptional people’. Who single-handedly defeated Hitler and Stalin and now have the moral mandate to rule the world with force.

    This is why I love seeing Liz Cheney squirm. Liz and Dick Cheney are the vile remnants of that old guard GOP, who loved to spew their venom from that presumed position of the ‘moral superiority’ of the ‘exceptional people’ of the ‘greatest generation’.

    As when Dubya was making his case for Shock and Awe, and speaking of Saddam’s thinly veiled “will to power”. Dubya said “we’ve seen this kind of thing before”, with obvious references to Hitler, just like they’re trying to do with Putin. And the Republican party used that banal idiocy to maximum effect, but it doesn’t work anymore. This is what the whole Mike Pence/George Bush/Dick and Liz Cheney/Billy Kristol/the neocons… all used as their justification for America’s belligerence around the world. Because Murka was the moral paragon, who had defeated Hitler! Blah, blah..

    And now all of that is in the dust bin of history, and good riddance.

    Rand Paul just suggested Elon Musk as the new House Speaker.

    That would be revolutionary, and is not likely to happen. But it just goes to show how dead that old guard ((GOP)) actually is.

    When the whole filthy edifice is rotting in its grave, along with John McCain, (and hopefully soon Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton and the G5 leaders- who’re dropping like flies) things will gradually get better.

    My problem with Arabs/Muslims is that they don’t get together and kick those Jews out of Palestine, not that they won’t accept more Palestinian refugees than they’ve already got.

    You mean like a war? Yea well they tried that and f-cked it up. Israel has Golan because their Arab neighbors screwed up an attack when they had the advantage. Muslims did their best fighting in WW1 when they had German advisors. Of course that is too politically incorrect for everyone.

    Arabs don’t have as many political and military leaders to select from. Palestinians are a marginalized population that has most likely suffered from emigration dysgenics. The ones with leadership potential are more likely to leave.

    Islam is an inherently non-Palestinian religion.

    Yes, but many indigenous Jew and Christian Palestinians converted to Islam. I think it would be hard to now separate who were the converts and who the Muslim invaders, or rather the descendants of these.

    Christendom, for obvious reasons, will not accept millions of unassimilable Muslims. However, these charitable nations would be willing to put in funding to help honourable and compensated religious returns.

    Did you ask these charitable Christian nations, or rather their leaders, if this is indeed so?

    Reclaiming Bethlehem as a Christian city would involve buying out the current non-Christian landowners.

    Do you think Jews would allow any large scale independent Christian community anywhere in the West Bank or Israel itself? In fact there are other towns that should be Christian, or at least shared between Jews, Christians and Muslims, including Jerusalem, but Jews would never allow that.

    this is not over, far from it, as it hasn’t even really begun. now the iranians will be able to play a role more like they played in iraq and their proxies can inflict damage on the militaries of israel and her sugar daddy, incestuous uncle, just as they had planned for russia and iran once again. the tables have been totally turned and israeli greed has once again led them into a quagmire that will further destroy their apartheid state from within.

    our kinder gentler terrorist overlords, seem like a dog that has caught the car it chased and don’t know quite what to do with it. israel is busy destroying every military asset they can find, as they now have reasoned that maybe their mercenaries don’t really love their “gentile neighbors” as much as their tiktok videos implied, better safe than sorry. now hts wants international help in stopping the air strikes, lol, good luck with that. the u.s. is back to bombing “isis” targets as well, as they no longer need them.

    everything is going to remain in a dormant state until trump is anointed emperor again. the russians are playing it by ear as well, they have far more options now, than in 2011 and may end up in libya, another of the empires failed campaigns, or even in iran, with their upcoming mutual defense treaty with iran , to be signed around the same time as caligula and his horse are coronated in the zioneocon empire.

    well if the shit does hit the fan, it’s the zioneocon empire that will find itself exposed on numerous fronts and my more devious self, is in fact looking forward to seeing the clusterfuck they have prepared for themselves, go up like roman candles, in all directions at once. if they think this has given them any leverage, than they are even more stupid than i had imagined, hard for me to comprehend but they never fail to amaze me, as their idiocy seems unfathomable.

    expect another month of slow motion kabuki theater on the surface, while hezbollah continues to reorganize it’s command structure and the iranians rework supply lines. i can’t help but think they have constructed some submarine bases that connect to their miles of tunnels constructed under soleimani’s supervision, perhaps gaza as well, as hamas is still fighting after being totally cut off for over a year, where do their weapons come from? bet the israeli would like to know as well.

The clown leaders of the Arab world were trying to one-up each other on how they were going to slaughter all the Jews in Israel. Then Egypt, Syria, and the other Arab countries attacked Israel, got their asses kicked, and quieted down with their genocide talk.

    It’s terrible to watch these children and women getting slaughtered by the Israelis but if any country took the entire population of Gaza as refugees they would be accomplices in the ethnic cleansing/ genocide of the Palestinian people.

    Anyone accepting to resettle the Palestinians en masse would be an accomplice in the greatest crime ever – genocide…

    No it’s not. Anyone who thinks that standing on the sidelines and watching a child die is somehow better than taking that child in and saving him or her from death is delusional.

    If the Muslim world thinks in the way you posted they are even sicker than I had thought. My bet is that the Muslims are not that nutty; more likely it’s Muslims using lame, asinine, excuses that a normal nine-year-old could tear apart. I also wouldn’t put it past the Muslim world that they want the death count to rise because it makes both Israel look bad and it gets them off the hook in their not caring for these Gazan refugees.

    One thing is for certain: The Muslim world doesn’t care enough about these “Palestinians” to take them in, to save their desperate Muslim lives. If a Muslim ever speaks to me about their sacred brotherly and sisterly umma, I’ll be sure to mention Gaza.

    Islam is an inherently non-Palestinian religion. It arrived by force ~600 AD. Even Muslims admit this timeline is accurate. Muslim colonists occupying Judea, Samaria, and Gaza are participants in the greatest crime ever.

    Yes, but many indigenous Jew and Christian Palestinians converted to Islam. I think it would be hard to now separate who were the converts and who the Muslim invaders, or rather the descendants of these.

    There is no need to separate them. The territorial claim is religious, not ethnic. Those who follow:

    • Palestinian faiths of Christianity and Judaism get to stay.
    • Non-Palestinian faith of Islam would have the Right to Religious Return, exiting Palestine & migrating to an appropriate Islamic homeland.

    Theoretically, sincere conversion & open repudiation of Islam would be grounds to stay. However, it is not worth discussing in great depth here as the numbers would be comparatively tiny.

    Reclaiming Bethlehem as a Christian city would involve buying out the current non-Christian landowners.

    Do you think Jews would allow any large scale independent Christian community anywhere in the West Bank or Israel itself?

    Your use of the term “independent” is vague and subject to multiple interpretations.

    Establishing Bethlehem as a Christian enclave, though not an independent state, would be negotiable. Judaism has no religious interest in exclusively New Testament sites. What is the total Christian population? IIRC ~200K. Specifics are hard to predict, but limited numbers open the door to a variety of potential arrangements.

Putin always works only with the Zionist behind kissers like Erdogan and UAE, Saudi Arabia and India. He is a traitor and no one should trust this bastard. Look what he says:

    During four and a half hours of question-and-answer, Putin responded to questions on the Syrian conflict from a US and later a Turkish reporter. He said the future of the Russian bases at Khmeimim and Tartus is undecided. “The vast majority of [Syrian groups] tell us that they would want our military bases to remain in Syria. I don’t know — we should think about it, because we have to decide for ourselves how we relate to the political forces that are now in control and will control the situation in this country in the future. Our interests ought to coincide. If we stay there, then we have to do something in the interests of the country where we are.”Putin endorsed the Turkish military movements into Syria over the Israeli ones. “Israel is also solving security issues for itself…We hope that Israel someday will leave the territory of Syria, but right now it is bringing in there additional troops. I think there are already thousands of troops. And I have such an impression, that they are not only not going to leave, but they are going to reinforce there…Turkey needs to ensure its security somehow. We understand that all. This is not for today’s meeting, so as not to waste time.”

    Putin said: “You and those who, I repeat, pay your wages, want to present everything that happens in Syria like some kind of failure, the defeat of Russia…We came to Syria ten years ago so that it would not become a terrorist enclave like the fact we observed in some other countries, say, in Afghanistan. In general, we have achieved our goals… And even those groups that fought against the Assad regime, with government troops, also undergo internal changes. No wonder today many European countries and the United States want to establish a relationship with them. If they are terrorist organizations, what are you doing there? So, they’ve changed, have they? This means that to a certain extent, the [Russian] goal has been achieved.

    Shame on you Pepe who is still defending this charlatan, traitor and Zionist servant. Russia and putin always have obtained concessions from the criminal west by selling their partners.

    Again “share” is vague and subject to multiple interpretations. Clearly, neither Nazareth nor Bethlehem could be an independent nation. However, a lesser level of Christian self rule at the municipal level would make sense where a substantial Christian majority present.

    It is easy to see how Bethlehem would naturally head towards becoming a special Christian enclave. This is the only case where I would be confident of pulling it off. A huge amount of the local economy would be driven by Christian tourism.

    What about Nazareth? To the Jews or Christians?

    The Jews have been committed and organized for our collective destruction for generations now, targeting any politician who didn’t toe their line 100%, while the goyim chewed their cud in the fields, oblivious. But for the first time I can remember, the average Joe is catching on to these vermin, and paying attention to how they vote. There might be a nascent awakening, to just how treasonous our politicians in D.C. have been for decades. The Jan, 6th debacle was a huge tell. They railroaded average people, including grandmothers with cancer into long prison terms, and treated these naive patriots like they were treasonous, while the imperious scum, who sat there in judgement, like Liz Cheney, were the real treasonous ratfucks.

    Average people are finally seeing, (due to things like Twitter and TickTok), just how fucked up things have been. The people reeling from the hurricane in North Carolina, treated like dirt, as billions were sent to Biden’s corrupt cronies in Ukraine, has not been lost on John-Q-Public.

    Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk and others, are changing the paradigm. Jews no longer have an iron lock on all information, as they’re used to.

    I don’t know if all of that is going to add up to anything, but I hope so.

    Had a traditional GOP Republican been elected, we’d be entrenched in the Jew-wars for as far as the eye can see. We’d be continuing to bankrupt our grandchildren to pay for bombs, until there was nothing left but Jew-debt and a vast dystopian hell on earth, where Western civilization used to be.

    Maybe, just maybe people are waking up to ‘the Jew’.

    Aneurysm kills relatively quickly once the strangulated arteriole bursts by causing a brain hemorrhage. To get the desired effects there are other means… like starvation, or phosphorus burns (as they caused on the child survivors of their bombing of schools)– the wounds that never heal…

    Seriously speaking, I agree that hypocrisy is evil but I also see it as a transitory means used to fool people as long they feel masks are needed, before they feel they are in total control.

    On his own show, Dan Bilzerian explained to him that that number has been grossly exaggerated and downwardly revised by both the “Jews” and the Red Cross. Not only that, but Judeofascists and Zionists were responsible for whatever “Holocaust” there was, by using the Anglo and Russian ZOG governments to squeeze Germany, and by additionally using the Judeofascist fifth column within the Nazi Party.

    Doing the basic research. Officially 200 Russian servicemen KIA in Syria between 2015 and 2024.

    In a civil war that displaced millions into Europe and killed around 1 million Syrians. A war that began in 2012, hardly a drop in the bucket.

    In Afghanistan the US had around 2,000 KIA over 20 years of occupation between 2001-2021.

    It’s hardly anything to do with Russia ultimately.

    Russian has lost 190 servicemen KIA in Syria between 2015 and 2024. Deployed no more than 4,000 at a time.

    That’s hardly anything. They were just hanging around maintaining bases.

    I too would have loved to see Russian S-500 defensive positions blow the Israeli jets out of the Syrian sky. I think we all would. But everyone seems to be walking on egg shells.

    Those egg shells are the triggering of a nuclear WWIII. Nobody in their right mind would start WWIII over Israeli jets being blown out of Arab skies, but America’s Jew-controlled leadership isn’t in its right mind. Putin is the only adult in the room, if anyone is going to keep WWIII from starting it’s him and he knows it.

    Lots of people here at The Unz Review criticize Putin because he supposedly didn’t help Assad enough when Putin, most assuredly, weighed ALL the costs and options then acted accordingly. This included Assad, unlike Gaddafi, not dying in the desert with a bayonet shoved up his ass by terrorists whom America now suddenly supports.

    If anyone is left twisting in the breeze it’s the non-Sunni Muslims that remain in Syria; for them the knowledge that there still might be a rape-and-murder bloodbath must be a terrifying.

    Yesterday’s (Wednesday) “Red Line” violation by Ukraine””

    “Ukraine has launched a missile attack against a large chemical plant in Russia’s southern Rostov Region, the Russian Ministry of Defense has reported. According to the military, six American-made ATACMS tactical missiles and four air-launched Storm Shadow cruise missiles were used in Wednesday’s assault.

    Russian air defense units engaged the incoming missiles, successfully intercepting all ATACMS and three out of the four Storm Shadow missiles using S-400 and Buk-M3 surface-to-air missile systems, as well as the Pantsir air defense system. One of the Storm Shadows veered off course. However, it still impacted the facility, resulting in damage to a technical building on the premises, the ministry said.

    Moscow has condemned the attack, declaring that the attack by the Kiev regime, supported by Western sponsors, would not go unanswered.”

    This in not the doing of rogue soldiers but military policy.

    As long as the Gazans know in advance the area is a” kill zone” this is pretty much your basic “welcome to war.” This is what war is and the spoiled-brat Hamas “leadership,” the ones living the 5-star highlife in Qatar, should have know this before launching an invasion into Israel, before stating a new phase in a long war they can’t possibly win, a new phase in a war that’ll get, more than anything else, a lot of Gazans killed.

    One could only hope that your predictions are right. We will find out soon when Iran-Russia sign their strategic treaty.

    If Russia afterward supplied Iran with nukes, stationed some of its own nukes on Iranian territory similar to the one NATO has at Incirlic-Turkiye or helped Iran build its own nukes, then we’ll know that’s indeed a serious strategic treaty. If it’s just written words followed by Russia-China opting for further negotiations with western powers aimed at curtailing Iran’s nuclear program, then we know for sure it’s yet another ploy to dupe Iran give up its nuclear program a la Moamar Ghaddafi.

    By doing the latter option Russia-China are telling NATO that if you want WW3, then so be it, we’re ready. Such a move would immediately establish a multipolar world order. If NATO is dissatisfied with it, they must launch WW3 which by the way is rather unlikely.

    There’s a far greater chance of NATO going for a more balanced coexistence followed by the creation of an official country called Palestine. Once Palestine is created, Iran might also recognize Israel. Generally speaking that could be a win-win situation for all sides.

    If Russia-China continue to show weakness, definitely we all goanna end up being ruled as modern woke slaves by the zioglobalist banking cabal who will own everything on this planet.

    Russia is very WEAK, WEAK. That’s why always has to sell others for its own interest.

    Pepe Escobar is patronised by Russia, so he is unable to criticise Russian policies.

    I think there are clearly a lot of errors made by Russia in Syria. Russia didn’t help Assad to finish off the rebels in Syria and allowed them to regroup and eventually overthrow Assad. They had 10 years to do so. 10 years.

    This article said that U.S. secrectly helped to coordinate all the rebels and terrorist groups throughout Syria in the months prior to rebel offensive to overthrow Assad.

    US ‘prepared Syrian rebel group to help topple Bashar al-Assad’

    Fighters funded and trained by America and Britain tell The Telegraph they had advance warning regime would be overthrown

    The United States prepared a rebel force to join the offensive that overthrew the regime of Bashar al-Assad, fighters have claimed.

    British and American-trained fighters in the Revolutionary Commando Army (RCA), a group aligned against Islamic State, were told “this is your moment” in a briefing by US Special Forces before Assad was ousted.

    In the first indication that Washington had prior knowledge of the offensive, the RCA revealed it had been told to scale-up its forces and “be ready” for an attack that could lead to the end of the Assad regime.

    “They did not tell us how it would happen,” Capt Bashar al-Mashadani, an RCA commander, told The Telegraph from a former Syrian army air base used by Russia on the outskirts of the city of Palmyra.

    “We were just told: ‘Everything is about to change. This is your moment. Either Assad will fall, or you will fall.’ But they did not say when or where, they just told us to be ready.”

    [MORE]

    Having worked with the RCA to dismantle the Islamic State’s Syrian caliphate, the US still pays its fighters a salary to prevent the terror group’s resurgence.

    In the weeks before the briefing at the US-controlled Al-Tanf air base on the border of Iraq, according to Capt Mashadani, the RCA’s ranks were swollen by smaller freelance units like his brought under its command.

    As the main rebel force swept south to Damascus in a lightning offensive towards the end of last month, the RCA advanced out of Al Tanf and now occupies roughly one fifth of the country, including pockets of territory in the north of the capital.

    US military commanders in Syria ordered the advance to prevent remnants of Isis – which occupied much of the north-east of the country until its defeat in 2019, taking advantage of a power vacuum if Assad fell – senior RCA officers said.

    It indicates not only that Washington knew about the offensive led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), which toppled the Assad regime on Dec 8, but that it had precise intelligence about its scale.

    Among the chief targets of the US-backed operation was Palmyra, fabled for its Greco-Roman ruins, which was occupied by Isis between 2015 and 2017.

    The ancient desert town 150 miles north-west of Damascus is considered a vital bridgehead against Isis and was heavily defended by Russia and Iran-backed militias, including the Lebanese group Hezbollah, until Assad’s fall.

    RCA fighters who captured the Russian-controlled Syrian air base on the outskirts of the town last week said they had been told to prepare for Assad’s possible fall in early November, nearly three weeks before the offensive began.

    Until one month earlier, Capt Mashadani had been second-in-command of the Abu Khatab brigade. This small unit of 150 men was created by US Special Forces and trained by their British counterparts in Jordan until 2016, to hunt down Isis fighters near Deir ez-Zor, a city in eastern Syria.

    There were several such Sunni desert units operating out of Al Tanf. They fought separately from the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), the Kurdish-led militia that controls much of the country’s north-east.

    But, in early October, Capt Mashadani and his fellow commanders said, American officers at Al Tanf brought the Abu Khatab brigade and other units under the joint command of the RCA.

    The RCA’s ranks grew from about 800 to as many as 3,000 as a result, he said. All members of the force continued to be armed by the US and to receive their salary of $400 (£315) a month, nearly 12 times what the soldiers in the now defunct Syrian army were paid.

    As the offensive began, RCA forces fanned out across the eastern desert, taking control of key roads. They also joined up with a rebel faction in the southern city of Dera’a that reached Damascus before HTS.

    Capt Mashadani said the RCA and the fighters of HTS, which is led by Syria’s interim leader Mohammed al-Jolani, were co-operating, and communication between the two forces was being co-ordinated by the Americans at Al-Tanf.

    As Syria’s 13-year civil war ground on, it threw up a bewildering array of militias and alliances, most of them backed by foreign powers.

    It would therefore be only one of many ironies if the US has been in an effective alliance with a group like HTS, which was al-Qaeda’s affiliate in Syria until it broke away in 2017.

    It is equally ironic that rebel factions supported by the US are co-operating with those backed by Turkey in places like Palmyra, while fighting against each other elsewhere in the country.

    While Turkey opposed the US-supported Kurds in Syria, it was in full agreement about the threat posed by Isis.

    In recent days, the US has carried out dozens of air strikes on Isis positions even as its Kurdish allies have come under sustained attack from Syrian factions supported by Turkey.

    The Isis threat is clear in the town of Palmyra, which was largely destroyed in the Russian-led battle to recapture it in 2017 and remains mostly abandoned.

    Isis fighters are positioned in the hills to the south-west of the town and have effective control of parts of the highway to Damascus, said Abdulrazzaq Abu Khatib, a commander in the Turkey-backed Falcons of the Levant Brigade, which controls central Palmyra.

    The Falcons led the offensive that captured Palmyra, with casualties suffered both by his men and by Hezbollah, Mr Khatib said. Another five of his men died on Tuesday while trying to clear a building booby-trapped by the retreating Russians, he added.

    An offensive against Isis in the area was likely to begin next month once Palmyra was fully secured, Mr Khatib said.

    I think Putin made a lot of mistakes. He is a poor foreign policy hand for Russia. He lacks the ruthlessness and decisiveness to be leader of Russia. He said that Russia did not fail in Syria because Russia defeated Islamic terrorism in Syria. lol. No, Russia intervened in Syria in 2015 to SAVE Assad regime. They were not there to destroy Islamic terrorism. That’s BS.

    Assad regime has fallen. Russia FAILED in its goals. Pepe Escobar can say none of these things since he is patronised by Russia. Wow, Pepe really needs to wake up and do more somber analysis and not serve as some sort of partisan for Russia or BRICS. That’s stupid.

    There is interesting speculation on role of Iran in downfall of Assad. Apparently, Iran had been unhappy about Assad for a while and decided to withdraw Iranian Revolutionary Guards from Aleppo so as to put pressure on Assad.

    Here is a comment from the comments section of a video from the Duran:

    [MORE]

    “Sadly all of you wrong with my respect .. I am from Iraq we know whats going on in Syria .. let me tell you an important information . Iran isn’t the big loser because Iran plotted the fall of Assad as a revenge from his last behaviour towards them. When Lebabnon war started Hezbollah former leader Nasurallah was supposed to be escorted to Syria to operate from there.. However Assad refused this request despite Iranian pressure on him.. Then as you know Nasrullah was assassinated this pissed Iran a lot therefore Iran withdrew its miltia that supported Assad in Syria conflict as a punishment to him and a message telling him you are nothing without us. Thus Assad regimen collapsed so quickly. Iranians also made a deal with HTS rebels by telling them do not revenge from Shia and the way is paved for you to Damascus. Sadly this is the true story. Iran pulled its hand from Syria as a signal to Trump they wanted peace…”


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7dQ2cJicPc&t=3988s

    We also have this report from Thierry Meyssan:

    “…Then, these forces attacked Aleppo, until then defended by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards. The latter withdrew without a word, leaving a small garrison of the Syrian Arab Army to defend the city. Faced with the disproportion of forces, the Syrian government ordered its troops to withdraw to Hama, which they did on November 29, after a brief battle…

    Ali Larijani, special envoy of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, went to Damascus to explain the withdrawal of the Revolutionary Guards from Aleppo and to set conditions for military aid from the Islamic Republic of Iran; astonishing cultural conditions for a secular state.

    In a telephone conversation with his Iranian counterpart, Masoud Pezeshkian, President Bashar al-Assad said that the “terrorist escalation” was aimed at “trying to fragment the region, to crumble its states and to redraw the regional map in accordance with the interests and objectives of America and the West.” However, the official statement does not reflect the mood of the conversation. The Syrian president wanted to know who had ordered the Revolutionary Guards to abandon Aleppo. He did not get an answer. He then warned President Pezeshkian about the consequences for Iran of a fall of Syria. Nothing worked. Tehran continued to demand that it be given the keys to Syria to defend it…

    On December 6 and 7, the Doha Forum was held in Qatar. Many Middle Eastern figures participated alongside Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. On the sidelines of the Forum, a guarantee was given to Russia, (which represented President al-Assad), that the soldiers of the Syrian Arab Army would not be pursued and that the military bases of the Russian Federation would not be attacked. Another guarantee was given to Iran that the Shiite shrines would not be destroyed, but it seems that Tehran was already convinced of this…

    Turkey confirms diplomatic success in preventing Russian, Iranian military intervention in Syria during Assad’s fall

    On Friday, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan verified that his country was successful in persuading both Russia and Iran to refrain from military interference in Syria during the opposition forces’ offensive that eventually led to Bashar al-Assad’s demise.

    In an interview with Turkish channel NTV, Hakan Fidan stated, “The most vital matter was engaging in dialogue with the Russians and Iranians to confirm they wouldn’t interfere militarily in the equation. We conversed with them, and they understood.”

    “To reduce losses, we worked to attain the objective without spilling blood through targeted negotiations with two important sides capable of using force,” Fidan added.

    Fidan argued that had Assad obtained Russian and Iranian support, “the opposition’s success would have taken much longer and would have been bloodier.”

    He further clarified, “The Russians and Iranians understood that this no longer made sense. The man [Bashar al-Assad] they invested in was no longer worth the investment.”

    He also underlined that both Russia and Iran realized that the conditions in the region and the world were no longer the same as a decade before.

    You’re right. They live by the Old Testament, they should die by its commandments.

    An eye for an eye, means they need divine retribution visited upon them. Everything they have done, and continue to do, to the Palestinians, they deserve done to them.

    For every child maimed, burned, starved, shot, crushed, humiliated, orphaned, tortured or driven to despondency by an unspeakable evil, and a world willing to countenance such evil, the same justice must be meted out to these supremacist vermin.

    this spawn of Netanyaho

    should be made to endure every torment and humiliation and agony, that he so gleefully advocates for Palestinian children.

    I’d love to see him wake up one day in the shoes of a young Palestinian man, and be rounded up by the IDF, and given the ‘treatment’ in one of their Israeli dungeons for a few years, periodically tortured, perhaps raped, to the giggling and cheers of IDF Jews.

    I think most humans, (and all decent humans) have a natural sense of justice, like those ‘instant karma’ videos, (if you’ve ever seen them) when a thief is knocked cold the moment he grabs the purse, or a thug is beaten to a pulp, by outraged bystanders, or a granny grabs her shotgun and blows the arm of a home invader… It’s almost universal this desire for justice.

    I don’t see much hypocrisy left in Israel

    You’re right.

    In their current state of blind hubris, they’re like like that child rapist Antonio Cosme who got out of jail early, and in his smug, asked his victim’s mother, “How’s your daughter?”

    I abhor cruelty, but what Cosme got, Cosme deserved.

    But I wasn’t really referring to the Jews vis-a-vis the rancid hypocrisy, (Jews will Jew), but rather the goyim leaders and media whores of the West, who preen and beam that they’ve funded seven new ‘Holocaust’ museums, and mandated ‘Holocaust’ studies at every grade in their public schools, and then out of the other side of their rotten, lying faces, they demand Israel ‘has a right to defend itself’, by genocide and ethnic cleansing and murder and collective punishment (including children) of anyone it considers inconvenient.

    It’s like Jerry Sandusky lecturing us all on child welfare. Or Sean Hannity scolding people for supporting Hamas.

    I’ve listened to Hannity shill for every Jew-war now going back to at least to the war on Iraq in 2003, and I’ve always known he knows better than anyone that he’s a lying rat and a rancid hypocrite.

    he is everything I despise about America and the West

    I think I was sub-consciously thinking about Hannity when I wrote about a brain aneurysm and choking on his lies and twitching in agonizing, foaming spasms… until dead.

Iran needs to watch Russia very very carefully. Putin wishes he can get rewarded via Ukraine. No matter how much Pepe tries whitewashing Russia’s repeated backstabs by giving positive outlooks for a new BRICS, BRI order and other rubbish.

    It’s obscene, over principle of all things, to prefer children to remain on their land and be “shredded” in a war zone than it is to removed them from their warring land and put them in a safe country

    let’s see..

    A man comes up to me and tells me he wants to invade the home next door, and kill the inhabitants, including several children, so he can steal the home and its contents for himself, and asks me for guns and ammunition in order to do so, and also for me to provide cover for him to get away with it all, from the authorities.

    In the current situation, Israel is the guy who wants to murder and steal, and the U.S. is the guy giving him the guns and ammo and cover, and you’re standing there on your moral high-horse, saying ‘how can you let him kill those children?!’ Sure, give him the guns to kill the adults, and allow him to steal the home, but at least get the children out!

    How about the U.S. simply tell the scumbag who wants to murder and steal, that we aren’t going to give him the weapons and funding and cover to do so. All it would take is for the potus to call up Bibi and tell him to stop it.

    End it today, or else.

    That’s it. That’s all it would take. No need to evacuate the children, because the genocide is all being perpetrated on our dime. Simply cut off the support, and the horrors would end today, and the children can go back home, and start rebuilding their lives.

    But that wouldn’t suit you, would it?

Israel has been killing kids in Gaza for close to 15 months and not a single country in the Muslim world has saved a single Gazan child in all that time.

    The only comments he hates even more than those unmasking Israel as the monstrous entity it is are those that unmask him as a cynical, lying pro-genocide troll.
    But what if we are all wrong about him? What if this:

    “It’s obscene, over principle of all things, to prefer children to remain on their land and be “shredded” in a war zone than it is to removed them from their warring land and put them in a safe country.”

    is merely an expression of his sincere concern for the suffering Palestinian kids, poorly expressed (after all he is not a poster boy for the much lauded superior judaic verbal aptitude) and of his poorly informed understanding of the suffering of the Israeli Jewish (IJ) children?

    He needs to consider this:
    IJ children are dragged by their criminal, psychopathic parents to live in “settlements,” which are military outpost enclaves carved out of stolen land, in permanent danger because of the psychopaths’ endless terrorists activities against the native population.
    IJ children are constantly brain washed and indoctrinated from an early age to live in terror of virtually all human beings on earth who, they are told, “hate them just for being Jews” and seek to exterminate them, as they allegedly did six million European Jews.
    By the time they are adults they become haters of humanity, cowardly assassins and genociders, in short, ideal recruitment material for the IDF and the MOSAD. Because they are also raised to believe themselves supremely entitled they behave abominably so that when they travel outside the Stolen Land they are considered reprehensible by normal people.

    Isn’t it obscene, to prefer IJ (neonates to 17) children to remain on the stolen Palestinian land and be destroyed as human beings — turn-key murderous zombies– than it is to remove them from their poisoned habitat and put them in a safe country in special de-programing camps?

    I remember being in some public place, airport or somewhere, and I recall how I felt seeing two little boys with their father, and these little boys, of about seven and ten, or there about, were all accoutered with all the paraphernalia of Jewish supremacism, with the special haircuts, with the little curls, and the beanies, and so forth. They didn’t stand a chance.

    And I remember being disgusted with that father, (with his long black coat and hat), who was instilling in these innocent children, all the hatred of thousands of years of angry, ignorant tribalism. Yes, the same thing had been done to daddy when he was a child, but who in their right mind would want to do that to their own child?

    ‘Everybody hates you and wants to exterminate you because you’re a Jew, and as such, you’re waayyy better than all of them, and because of that, they hate you. Blah, blah, blah…’

    ‘In fact, god put them here to serve you and all of us Jews, and as long as they refuse, they’re in god’s disfavor, and you should seek to destroy and kill them, as god has ordained, blah, blah, blah…’

    It is highly unlikely that Hitler was a Zionist agent. There’s no need to invoke such a zany hypothesis because all that he did on the major issues was rational from the stance of German self interest, except that in the end, they were defeated by overwhelming force, orchestrated conspiratorially.

    I have to point out the paucity of your record on both posts and words. Plus, your vacuous and insubstantial attempts are devoid of meaning.

    Have you considered moving over to the Washington Post. You might by come across as vaguely average over there. Here you are clearly mentally out matched by myself and many others.

    I am amused by your comment and its contents. You have commented more than I. That is a fact. The rest of your comments regarding quality comparison are easily disregarded and discarded. Objectively, I looked at your posted comments in sufficient amount to judge their depth and quality.

    While informative at a certain level, I find that overall the quality is what I would call “undergraduate level”. This indicates a limited depth, a pervasive superficiality, and ordinariness. What constitutes exceptional commentary are occult and behind the scenes maneuvers, forces, ideas, motives, etc. While these in certain circumstances are ‘intangibles”, they are quite a boost toward understanding.

    Your comments are the metaphorical equivalent of relating physical movements as observable objects. This is descriptive by not interpretive. Another detriment to your comments is the constant mixture of the Christian perspective and lens. This is a belief system, not a form or template or filter/prism for understanding. As for your inability to understand by prose or sentences, I shall not belabor the assertion that the shortfall is yours. (English is your first language, isn’t it?).

    Your website link, The Conservative Treehouse is in the category and Israeli bias of Breitbart. Consistent references are WSJ, Politico, CNET, and other Israel/Jewish owned and slanted outlets. It is manifest that this site and you – in the Order Of The Vaseline Judeo-Christian Lip Lock Fusion – have hands in each others’ pockets.

    You see, here is where I differ and defer from tethered Western Christians like you. I am Eastern. Orthodox and Buddhist, which provide me intellectual, untethered and freedom to follow and pursue where I believe Truth may lie. This has led to modifications of my traditional, retro-conservative basis of being to understanding that others not of my general fixed point have something to offer that is superior in morality, truth, and beauty. So I find myself agreeing on issues many times with people of The {OMIGAWD} Left, e.g., The Grey Zone’s Max Blumental, Aaron Mate [and his father Gabor Maté, Katie Halper, Eva Karene Bartlett, Professor Finklestein, and the parade of journalists on Aljazeera, ON ISSUES.

Yeah, they will say they agree with you on something to suck you in, and then shit all over you and everybody else who is honestly trying to observe accurately, exchange sanely or learn. The propaganda machine on hyperdrive. The operating basis seems to be to throw a couple very sparce truths in there, VERY occasionally, with a million lies and signposts leading down chaotic paths. One can insult a robot a million times but it won’t change a thing. Meanwhile they take up valuable space. It just seems like ignoring is the better idea, or if one must just label. That really gets to them. Does their pay get docked, or what?

    Another self-righteous, not-too-bright, potty-mouthed, internet tough guy; they’re a dime a dozen in cyberspace which makes you the internet equivalent of a two-bit whore. Nellie will be proud of you, she had dopes like you that she lead around by the nose over on the SONAR21 site. Congratulations.

    I will never say “I told you” because that’s something one might only say with satisfaction, feeling vindicated that some little guess came true.
    I will be in mourning like someone bereaved, even if the end was expected because the deceased was decrepit and riddled with disease.
    I envy you your strength to hope.

    You meant Azarbaidzhan, right?

    IDF is setting up base there for our next operations on Iran and as a Rabbi I certainly hope to be sent there to motivate our boys and girls.

    We recruit actively in the Mossad. I hope you will join us and maybe we will meet in Azarbaidzhan.

    Please give me your contact information.

    So I find myself agreeing on issues many times with people of The {OMIGAWD} Left, e.g., The Grey Zone’s Max Blumental, Aaron Mate [and his father Gabor Maté, Katie Halper, Eva Karene Bartlett, Professor Finklestein, and the parade of journalists on

    Aljazeera

    , ON ISSUES.

    So you are well aligned with our Qatari friends who threw Assad down the well, and our Jewish friends shaping the narrative on the opposition side.

    Mossad offers a starting salary of 100K for rookie recruits. If you prove a valuable asset your salary will go up by leaps and bounds. And if your potential is proven over many years we might place you in Putin’s outer circle, and who knows, even his inner circle one day.

    Provide a contact information if interested.

    Shalom.

    Israel is absolutely justified in wiping out Hamas but not anyone else if they could help it.

    Israel isn’t justified in anything but disappearing from the face of the earth.

    No.

    You have a lengthy track record of commentary that mirrors Zionist talking points. Most people here see it, but can’t be bothered to respond because they find that merely responding to cretins like you is usually a waste of energy and effort better spent on other endeavors, especially since you’ve been defeated multiple times in debate and continue to flog the same old bullshit.

    I’m even a little regretful that I wrote this much to explain what is surely obvious to the vast majority of us.

    Additionally, your schoolyard jibes against ariadna and Rurik make you look ridiculously weak and pathetic.

    Go help your wife with the chores, for God’s sake. Do something useful for once.

    I shall drink to your success. The more ‘boys and girls’ you can motivate to their own demise the better. Not the type of Tikkun Olam you had in mind, but the overall health of humanity is inversely correlated to success and felicity of your odious kind.

    Agree 100%
    Iran went to Syria and told him Iran is willing to fight the terrorists along with Syrian Army, but
    Assad did not accept the offer, then Iranians won’t be fighting for a country that is not going to let them to fight. Putin had the most control on Assad and most cooperation with the genocidal Netanyahu against Iranian position in Syria. Now, it is more than clear that Russian bases and embassy are both safe.
    There has been a DEAL behind ASSAD’s back between zionist whore Putin and Zionist whore trump, that Putin let Syria falls, then trump returns the favor in Ukraine on the expense of Syria and Iran.
    Russia sold Libya, yesterday, Syria today, Iran tomorrow. Every single Iranian knows that. Putin is a zionist whore, and remains as such until he is dead.

    The British government doesn’t represent the British people who you seem to hate, with your failure to distinguish between rulers and ruled, manipulators and manipulated.

    I wouldn’t hate the British ruled if they weren’t such doormats for the jews and the Judas Class British elites, but, as you say “most of the public are only starting to show an interest in [“Holocaust” myth-making]. All out of commercial interest mind you.”

    So now that it’s financially convenient to start re-thinking the Holocaust, they’re starting to show interest? Their principles revolve merely around filthy lucre? They don’t have an iota of traditional Christian integrity, as the great, antisemitic merry old Englishman Shakespeare had? As Dickens had? As Orwell had? They’ve been naturalized as Judas Class stooges, to cut their own throats? They don’t know that all British wealth and all advanced civilization wealth is precipitated on unification around King Christ, as the antisemites knew?

    No wonder the increasingly wog Brits are such a moral, social, political and geopolitical catastrophe. Stupid f’ing shekel grubbers, just like Hitler-Shiklgruber with his dreams of plundering Russia instead of explaining to the world that it was a ZOG occupied government, just like Britain.

    Hitler admired the British and probably the ((Cousinhood)) because he was one of them.

    Additionally, Hitler was brainwashed in the “Jewish Century” by Judeofascist and Zionist financial wizards, their treachery, their wars, and the dynamic they created, as were the British elites. The ((Cousinhood)) infiltrated and colonized the British over centuries, because they became sick, weak, decadent, and eventually anti-Christ.

    They became eminently corruptible because they never bothered to practice Christian Logos. It requires too much thinking, whereas the Brits are now just interested in shopping and shiny objects and nice cars and big houses and maintaining the (inevitably) collapsing Ponzi at the point of a gun that pays for their addictions and vices and bling.

    Azerbaidzhan is a good move, I don’t deny it but I have my eyes on the final destination: Birobidzhan.
    I cannot discuss with you in an open forum whether I am already or plan to be a MOSAD asset. I leave it to your intelligence to conclude.
    I will wait for you there, next to the tallest menorrah in the world. It has long been a source of sadness for me that our people failed to appreciate Iosif Visarionovich’s magnificent present: the oldest Jewish state in existence! Well, Ok, an oblast technically speaking, but autonomous and so far from any Goy neighbors that it guarantees security.
    Instead, fooled by corrupt politicians they flocked to Palestine where they have had nothing but tsures trying to dislodge the second worst Goyim on earth: the Arabs.
    As a rabbi you must educate our people to make them understand that in Birobidzhan they would be finally free from the Goy oppression that prevented them from dedicating themselves to the endeavors in which they are destined to excel (agriculture, manual labor, forestry, etc) and forced them instead to survive by engaging in dishonorable, shady occupations revolving around money and lawyering.
    They would also be free to finally develop a culture and a civilization of their own!
    Tell them there will be no need for any eruvim anymore: the whole Birobidzhan is an encapsulated perfect shtetl surrounded by a virtual eruv.

    So I presume Iran won’t be signing that defence treaty with Russia.

    I recommend Sarite as a far better fit to your organisation than Rurik or Ariadna. Sarita is already a huge fan of your jihadi head-choppers in Syria.

    And distressingly for Pat and the zio-trolls here, not everything is cut and dried in Syria. Safe to say perhaps that the last word has not yet been spoken there.
    The Fat Lady has not yet sung.

    — ❗️🇸🇾/🇸🇾 WATCH: Yesterday, an ex-SAA unit consisting of loyalists to the Syrian Arab Republic, mounted an armed resistance operation against HTS terrorists in the town of Talfita, north of Damascus

    The former SAA soldiers ambushed the rebels, shooting & killing many of them. They then entered Sednaya prison, killed some of the people guarding it, before retreating.

    They shouted ‘Long live the Republic!’. It seems only a matter of time before regime loyalists start an organized armed resistance.
