The coalition has entered its " sell by date".
Assad will not fall either now either now or in the near future, yes there will be changes but Sharia law will not be introduced in Syria.
Let us hope that soon this horrid war comes to an end, enough killing and destruction.
In other words milti, Assad has lost big time. i've been saying this for a very long time, and I have always been proven right in everything I have said so far.
Mate you do make me laugh, Sorry. Care to give us an instance when you were right?
Assad hos ...lost big time ?
unfortunately miltiades, the joke is on you.
You guys have had blood seeping from your fangs since over a year ago saying the fall of Aleppo was imminent.
Well, it still hasn't fallen yet, and it isn't going to happen for a very long time.
You would think you would have learned your lesson by now.
So Paphitis .... how
ARE things going in Mosul? All over in a week, I think you said?
Mosul is all very quiet on the internet with only a few obscure (
unreliable) sites giving information. There is no press coverage because the '
coalition' is bombing urban and city centre areas and killing many civilians, destroying large areas of the City and are embarrassed by the carnage, so they say nothing and keep the press out ........... but you cannot drop bombs that don't kill people.
When this happens in Aleppo,
YOU call for a cessation of hostilities and throw out accusations that Assad/Putin are deliberately targeting civilians, schools and hospitals, thus committing war crimes! When it is
YOU doing the bombing ..... SILENCE. That is what I call double standards ........ another signature MO of the US!
Note, that even on these pro-Putin propaganda sites you hate so much, you rarely hear the same inane and stupid claims the US is committing war crime/deliberately targeting civilians/deliberately targeting hospitals and schools, they seem to accept that unfortunately the more aggressive
ANY forces are to dislodge
THEIR enemies, the more civilians die. And don't try to tell me THAT is not happening.
In Aleppo, just like you are now finding out in Mosul, once you hit the suburbs progress is difficult. Its not so much that Assad couldn't take Eastern Aleppo .... it was at what cost to the civilians and the fact he could not take it without inflicting heavy civilian casualties. He and Putin were well aware of this.
So they tried to prevent deaths directly due to air strikes or artillery but still prevent the terrorists from getting supplied with weapons and thus degrade their ability to continue fighting. Assad/Putin agreed to pauses in the fighting with Kerry, for various periods of time, to allow the civilians to leave. They didn't leave because they were being held hostage, that is now becoming very evident from those leaving East Aleppo.(
another one of your theories bites the dust!) Any attempt to escape and they got shot at by snipers or the exit check points were bombed. (
RT showed it happening live!)
What happened when Assad's forces and their allies respected these pauses?
YOUR rebels carried on shelling and
YOUR coalition, in spite of Kerry's promises, took the opportunity rearm them thus prolonging the conflict. The terrorists fight back and yes ... quite right ... the front line moves backwards and forwards ...... killing more trapped civilians.
Face it Paphitis ..... you have been wrong on virtually all your wild predictions so far and no doubt will continue to keep up the entertainment, for a while yet?
On what I see happening I would put my money on the terrorists being defeated in Aleppo by the end of the month. Will it be the end of the war? No, of course not, but the people of Aleppo like the people in Damascus, will be able to live in reasonable security but will still suffer from terrorist attacks for the foreseeable future.
