How


Syria's revolution could reshape the Middle East


"Here's a preliminary look at what the upheaval could mean 

for a range of countries that have interests in Syria."





"About 900 U.S. troops remain to prevent a resurgence of the extremist organization. Most of the Americans are in remote northeastern Syria, with others in the far south." 


"President-elect Trump is striking a different tone. He took to social media over the weekend and said Syria is not a U.S. problem, the U.S. should not get involved, and should just let events play out."


"But the U.S. is already involved."

(That's our 3D chess wizard for ya

as we head  into the end-times.

Astute as ever!)


"Those U.S. troops are not just fighting the Islamic State, they've also been protecting vulnerable Syrian civilians."


"Iran

Assad's downfall is the latest in a series of major setbacks for Tehran. Persian Iran has spent the past four decades developing Arab partners and proxies in the region, collectively known as the "axis of resistance." But in the past year, they've been tumbling like dominos."


 "Iran's Revolutionary Guards maintained a strong presence in Syria until pulling out last week, just ahead of rebel advances. Iran also used Syria as a bridge to ship weapons to Hezbollah in Lebanon.

But now Assad is gone, Hezbollah has been greatly weakened by its war with Israel, and another Iranian proxy, Hamas in Gaza, has been devastated by its own war with Israel."


"Russia

But Russia is now preoccupied with the war in Ukraine and carried out only a few airstrikes as Assad's regime collapsed, demonstrating it was not able or willing to provide significant support."

(I told honey this morning the Russians could have halted the advance on Aleppo and they just didn't. If Russia is allowed to keep its military bases in Syria? Then that's what they got in exchange for not attacking the march to Aleppo and onwards, and shows prior coordination between Russia and Turkey.

That nobody is talking about who funded, armed and trained these guys, tells you it was our NATO "ally".

 (Hint hint, wink wink, nod nod, Turkey.)


"The Turkish leader would also like to see more than 3 million Syrian refugees in Turkey head home. Some have already begun doing so. In addition, Turkish construction companies are well placed to rebuild Syria, ravaged by more than a decade of war."

(Both help his economy. 

Now you see why he 

armed, trained and funded these guys?

Part of the reason anyway?

Think our intelligence services 

don't know what I am saying?

That explains

why your not hearing about

who armed, trained and funded this.

Cause they dont want you to know,

it was our NATO ally.)


"However, Erdogan's ambitions will depend on Syria restoring relative stability. Under Erdogan, the Turkish military has often operated in Syria against various Kurdish groups

(Gave him an excuse to have troops in the area.)


"that Erdogan views as a potential threats to his rule."

(They are a threat but a minor one and not at all to his rule.)


"If Erdogan chooses to operate against Kurdish factions in Syria, that could undermine efforts to rebuild Syria."

(He is out to fry 

a lot bigger fish 

than the Kurds,

he aint really 

worried about em.)
