Putin has his own problems and can’t possibly micro-manage Syria if Assad is incapable of the most basic competence.
As with any big event, there is a lot of nonsense swirling in the narrative around the fall of Syria.
Some people are going around claiming that this is a failure of Russia and Iran, that these allies should have swooped in and saved Assad.
People are so gay and retarded.
Russia was already bombing the terrorists. Iran was trying to send in troops.
What happened happened so quickly that it would have been completely impossible for Russia and Iran to send more reinforcements. The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) stood down, completely, and so this “revolution” only took as long as it takes to drive Toyotas from Aleppo to Damascus. When the media says “lightning fast,” they are understanding the matter. A more accurate axiom would be “like a warp portal.”
We know now as a factual matter that this is because the SAA leadership was entirely bought off by the Turks and opened the doors for the Islamist and Kurd terrorists. If the SAA would have put up a fight, the Russians and Iranians – as well as Hezbollah, for that matter – could have come in and backed them up. But when the military simply stands down, what are the allies supposed to do? You can’t just fly in a fleet of jets and drop off troops on the frontlines. That is not how these things work, something I assume we’ve all watched enough war to understand.
In real life, you can’t just airdrop in and start shooting at the enemy like Cobra Commander.
That was a cartoon show for children and not especially similar to real life war situations.
The Jewish media is spinning this as “looking bad for Russia,” and on a basic level, because most people won’ t ever understand what happened, it does look bad for Russia. But there was nothing Russia could have done.
Frankly, if the SAA would have fought, Russia would not have needed to send troops, as the air support would have been enough to hold off this movement indefinitely. The whole horrible scene was entirely defined by the military stand down.
Assad was not only not in control of his own military, he had no intelligence about what was happening beforehand, other than the enemies and the traitors, Assad is the only person who can be blamed here.
Also, No, The Refugees are Not Going Back and You’re Getting Millions More
A lot of people are joking about “so I guess the refugees can go back now,” but I’ve also seen people seriously suggesting this will happen.
That’s a laugh.
This is going to result in many, many more refugees, and a whole debauched scene with Turkey. It will be like 2015 all over again.
The media obviously claimed that the reason the refugees couldn’t return is that there is no democracy in Syria, but if you believed that, then I’m sorry, you are a gay retard. Some wealthy Syrian exiles might return as the country is being auctioned off by the revolutionary authorities, but the poor people who flooded Europe are not going back.
This coalition that overthrew the Syrian government, the Turks, Kurds, and Islamists, all hate each other, and the only thing unifying them was hatred for Assad. Really more than hatred for the man, they wanted his power. Now they’re going to have to figure out a way to divide that power, and it’s going to be very complicated.
Israel invading and making the country look like a little pussy bitch while the revolutionary refuse to even comment makes it all the more volatile, and Israel will no doubt be bombing various people in the country for a long time.
This is to say: the “Syrian Civil War™” did not end. It did not come close to ending. This is going to enter into a new hot period, where everyone is going to be trying to take as much as they can get. They’re all already militarized, so it is. going to take 2 seconds for any conflict they have to be militarized. They’re not going to be talking things out in a parliament or whatever.
It’s an unmitigated disaster.
