    did you yet figure out what propaganda is durandal ? "screwy and orwellian as ever I see" .... and just another useless post -- strike strike strike.
    Where is the lie D ?

    Now would you like to improve your horrible 100% strike out track record .. starting with reading the Title of the Thread you are posting in .. and making some effort to comment on the topic .. rather than 24/7 personal invective .. thinking that is an argument for something other than your own ineptitude .. you might notice that 1) it is not my OP .. and 2) "as Russia Military Presence Fades" ..

    How is that not "kicking Assad to the Curb" Durandal ? and how is it your perspective on reality is always so backwards .. upside down .. and yet you call others out for being "Orwellian" .

    Do you know what the term Orwellian means durandal .. and if not ... why are you using these terms .. same with "Propaganda" .. let us understand what the words we use mean .. prior to using them Durandal as this may help to one day make a valid argument :)

    You make it sound as if Russia chose to let Assad fall, as if they chose to lose their ally and their military bases in Syria :)

    I'm guessing "For Lease" signs will be popping up at Tartus, Latakia, Khmeimim, Naval/Air bases soon?

    Also be aware the portion of the Syrian army on the Euphrates fled across the Iraqi border with equipment after they were cut off from the capital. Agreed the Russian assets are not large, but they are assets they can use in Ukraine if they are forced to leave. As you said, the subs they have there could be used, any experience pilots ect. Also any logistical items would be redirected.

    "By the grace of God, the city of Damascus was liberated. The tyrant, Bashar al-Assad, was overthrown, and all oppressed detainees were released from the regime's prisons. The Damascus conquest operations room calls on the mujahideen brothers and citizens to preserve all the property of the free Syrian state. Long live a free and proud Syria for all Syrians of all religions."



    Good to have a statement not from any al Qaeda types, but people who want a free and democratic Syria that is safe for people of all religions. This is what Syria needs to find peace at last. Security and freedom for all.

    "Assad is gone," Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. "He has fled his country. His protector, Russia, Russia, Russia, led by Vladimir Putin, was not interested in protecting him any longer. There was no reason for Russia to be there in the first place. They lost all interest in Syria because of Ukraine, where close to 600,000 Russian soldiers lay wounded or dead, in a war that should never have started, and could go on forever."

    "Russia and Iran are in a weakened state right now, one because of Ukraine and a bad economy, the other because of Israel and its fighting success," his post continued. "Likewise, Zelenskyy and Ukraine would like to make a deal and stop the madness. They have ridiculously lost 400,000 soldiers, and many more civilians. There should be an immediate ceasefire and negotiations should begin."

    No my friend, I am not confusing the religion of Islam with a political ideology, it is you who are confusing the Middle East with Europe.

    Today the majority of Muslims, especially in the Middle East will not accept any system with secular laws, AND IT IS FACT.

    Why do you think Muslims murder much more apostates than Christians, Jews, Hinduisms , Buddhists and Patafarians together?

    What happens right now in Syria happened in other Muslim countries – any economic or political problems are immediately translated into religion differences, the same things happened in Europe few hundred years ago – but recently in the West we don’t have religious wars, in the West we kill each other in the name of political ideology.

    And the fact is that it is much easier to convince people to die ‘defending God’ than to die defending Democrats, Republicans or Social Democrats.

    And BTW – Muslims not always try to convert kafirs (infidels) to Islam, many Muslims are satisfied when kafirs pay ‘dhimmi’ and when Jewish synagogues or Christian churches are not taller than mosques.

    .. compre vous ?

    Assad has fallen. Israel, Turkey and the West is happy, but only time will tell the nature of the new guys. Apparently the leader was Al Qaeda back in the day, but later formed this Syrian rebel group.

    It's very embarrassing to Russia of course.

    The central problem was not equipment, but rather the disinclination of Assad's troops to confront an armed enemy instead of unarmed civilians. I've seen that movie before.

    You can bury your head in the sand like an ostrich, persuade yourself that everything is fine, but this will not change reality.

    Syrians who fled country celebrate in UK and beyond as Assad regime is toppled


    I suppose a lot of refugees will start heading back now, assuming the fighting is over or significantly reduced.

    Well Yeah Durandal .. the dream of Islamic State in Syria has been realized .. That is what the Holy Jihad in 2011 was all about Durandal .. a new caliphate .. ISIS .. and so all Sunny Salafists are overjoyed .. just as the Taliban returning to Afghanistan after the Taliban took over is overjoyed to return home.

    The question for you D .. how is it that you think it Patriotic to the USA to be cheering on ISIS .. The Islamic State in Syria Reborn .. You thinking of a move Durandal .. be with the brothers !

    For one of your countless lies about me, specifically "You been telling us that cheering for the Islamic State in Syria is a Patriotic duty."

    Show the class where I ever said such a thing.

    Durandal ... the Islamic State in Syria - ISIS - is not about freedom of religion. Let us understand at least that much. .
    --------------------------------
    Syria conflict: Rebels 'filmed beheading boy' in Aleppo
    Syria conflict: Rebels 'filmed beheading boy' in Aleppo - BBC News
    ---------------------------------

    Let us not be thinking it is Patriotic to cheer for these Syrian Rebels Durandal .. we know who they are .. what they do to Christians and minorities.. the Islamic State was a going concern for 4 years just last decade D.. Let us exercise our memory .. remember the joys of what you seem now believe were the good old days. .. Syria was not a happy place for non Salafi Jihadists ... its where Genocide Joe earned his nick D .. surely you remember that .. 500,000 civilians dead..

    You are cheering on the Syrian Rebels .. sorry if you didn't realize that they are Islamic State rebels .. but how could you not know ... media on both sides stating this plainly ..

    Did you not realize who it is you were cheering for as liberators ? .. or are you pretending not to remember again.
    cited from one of your posts D .. why are you claiming not to remember ..
