Look at this one, still a student an international relations student. Yet doesn't even have an iota of what IR is all about.

You pillock how is the US responsible for the offensive,
Where was Iran, Russia and hazebolla when terrorist moved from city to city.

Just in the space of minutes you have postulated two false claims.

The US is responsible for the offensive.
The US made a deal with the HTS

Is this how you people are taught now in Nigerian varsities?

You and that other pillock Vic2023 i don't know who is the bigger clown
I already told you to stop quoting me. Debating with you is futile because no one gains anything other than idiocy. You're a very empty barrel and as the saying goes an empty barrel makes the loudest noise. Stop quoting me you will not die. Move Dumbo and stay the fuk away from my mentions.

President Assad was tired of Syria and gave up, he resigned and asked for peaceful transition, that is why the Syrian army didn't fight at all. Assad took these decisions without consultation with Russia.
Assad gave up, that is why Iraq and Iran said Assad didn't authorize their militaries to help him.

You can't help a person who doesn't want your help.

Unbelievable we just witnessed a war of almost 15 years partial ended within 15 days.

SAA have over 50K yet they couldn’t defend their own country from Rebels and Terrorists, it could have even ended in 2 days if not for Russia trying to slow them down.
Where were the SAA airforces?

Syria War Live: Who is Bashar al-Assad?
Syria War Live: Bashar al-Assad, 59, assumed power in 2000 following the death of his father, Hafez al-Assad, who had ruled Syria since 1971. Born in Damascus, he studied medicine at the University of Damascus and later trained in ophthalmology in London.

However, following the death of his older brother, Bassel, who was initially groomed to succeed their father, Bashar returned to Syria and became the heir apparent.


Assad's presidency has been largely defined by the brutal civil war that erupted in 2011 after Syrians demanded democratic reforms.

Assad's government responded with violent repression, leading to widespread accusations of human rights abuses, including the use of chemical weapons, the repression of Kurdish populations, and forced disappearances throughout the ongoing conflict.

Syria War Live: Syrian rebels declare Damascus ‘liberated’ on state TV


Syria War Live: The opposition has just issued their first statement to the Syrian people on state television.

"The city of Damascus is free," announced one man, dressed in civilian attire.

"The tyrant Bashar al-Assad has been overthrown. All prisoners have been released from the Damascus prison. We urge our fighters and citizens to protect and preserve the property of the state of Syria. Long live Syria."

They say " Heaven helps those who help themselves "

You can try to blame the west all you want but much of the blame falls on Assad himself. He had ample time to make defensive fortifications and modernize the military but he failed to do that after a few success they had in the past. Perhaps he didn't trust his allies.

For the Russians, it was a smart move to choose their battles wisely, it would have been foolhardy to try to save someone who doesn't want to be saved. The Russian naval base in the country would be fine, it would just be like another Libya, so many factions and so many foreign vested interests. I think the Russians have nothing against the Israelis.

However, the Iranians had much more vested interest in Syria, it was more a hub for their operations against the Israelis, a breeding ground for attacks against the Zionist with help of Hezbollah and other proxies.
Just as the Israelis use proxies like The Sistan and Baluchestan insurgents in Iran. So I consider this a big win for the Israelis.

Finally, as it's evident in Libya, the country would continue be politically destabilized, another win for whomever is occupying oil fields and millkng the resources. What country could that be ?

I never thought I would see the day people on Nairaland would cheer on terrorist, perhaps they have no problem with terrorism except against whom it's directed against.
The media even make up phrases like moderate-rebels to white wash terrorism.
It show how unscrupulous and hypocritical people who claimed to be principled are.
I pray you never experience the horrors the Syrians experience in the hand of the mass murderer Assad.
The Syrians are tired of Assad and his family.

You saw the people of South Korea defending their democracy The Syrians have rejected Assad and his genocidal antics. There's celebrations going on in Damascus. Syria is not the only country to experience the Arab spring revolution and won't be the last, Iran own will be bigger than this.

Russia never harassed them, the maiden coup and the killings of pro Russians in the donbass region was what caused this . Cremia was a strategic take which Russia did first because if it had remained with Ukraine prior to the maiden coup, it will be a military strategic danger for the Russian base in Sevastopol and NATO would definitely would want to build their base there . It was a strategic move by Putin and a checkmate to NATOs encroaching towards the borders of Russia.

Syria War Live: Syrians hail ‘Berlin Wall moment’
Syria War Live: “Today is the end of 54 years of the reign of Assad family in Syria. This is the only regime I knew all of my life," Guardian quoted doctor Zaher Sahloul, a Syrian-American physician who organised medical missions into Syria, including hospitals in Aleppo that were targeted by Syrian and Russian airstrikes.

“I don’t cry often in my adult life but today I did. It has been fourteen long years of horror. This is our Berlin Wall moment," he said.

Fair enough. 👍

Like I said earlier, Ukraine's bad luck is in sharing border with Russia. Majority of Ukrainians wanted to pivot towards Europe and away from Russia. Their geography is their bad luck.

We saw that script in Libya and Iraq, the same thing is already ongoing in Lebanon.
FSA already is an enemy of HTS and HTS hated those rebels in Northern Syria that have different styles from FSA, FAA etc
Immediately they took Aleppo, The Russian military just gave up because the troops in Aleppo could fight to stand still until backup comes but since SAA troops were not ready to fight.

In 2 years tell, they will want Assad like Libyans wished for Gadaffi to come back
Now, I understand why Trump wants to withdraw USA troops from there, their land, their problem

It's all their fault. Russia never said they can't join an economic alliance which is EU. Why join a military alliance especially one that hates Russia and wants Russia erased from the surface of the earth?
