2024 Syrian opposition offensives - The first Syrian rebel offensive against Government forces since March 2020

[Judge Holden]

It really shows how bad Assad was that the whole thing was done and won in two weeks. Even his army had no belief in his leadership and once a symbolic victory was won by the rebels, it all came tumbling down. The only reason people here or online supported him is not having the pleasure of living in a dictatorship where anything that makes the leaders look bad is being put in jail indefinitely.

If history is a guide then the autistic far left/far right horseshoe blob that whacks off over any and all sadistic third world tyrants because muh westoid globohomo will spend the next few decades seething about how the Syrian people are filthy traitors and sellouts for daring to depose their divinely ordained ruler who was thiiiis close to uniting the entire middle east against the west/pulling a new form of currency out his ass that instakills the dollar/some other bullshit that magically makes team multipolar-retard win

 

[Spud]

Look on the bright side. Now the Syrian refugees can go back to Syria cause it's safe now, right?

 

[Vesperus]

I want Putin to deploy nuclear weapons.
Not because I care, but I want my "who must go?" meme back.

 

[Gerelatha]

Will the rebels attack/take over Russias air/naval base? I know Turkey has heavily supported these rebels so maybe they did a backdoor deal with Russia & Rebels to leave their bases alone? Someone correct me if they know anything ty

this is the only question left remaining, I saw rumors that rebels were already entering tartus a couple of hours ago, but absolutely nothing concrete
we'll see over the coming days, if Russia loses the port and airbase their ambitions in Africa are dead in the water

how the fuck did this shit happen? he controlled most of the country last time i checked a month ago, real fucking suspicious that all of a sudden a flood of news hits the world after 7 years of radio silence followed by this,
the future of syria is going to look like libya with their slave markets and backwards fundi islamic totalitarianism. keep in mind that every picture that came out of syria of children being decapitated was done by the brave freedom fighters of the free syrian army supported by the west whos typical evils the narrative surrounding the war conveniently forgets.

God bless assad. and his resilience.

This dude sums it up pretty well

The rebels in the North were trained and supplied by the Turkroaches for years, whereas Assad was buckbroken after years of fighting.

 

[Foltest]

Assad forgot the most important rule from "The Prince"
It is better to be respected than loved.
That one should avoided, is being despised and hated.
Assad failed at being loved, being respected and all he had was being hated.

I just want to say that it’s been a crazy year in politics, like globally. Everyone has a few weeks to end it with a bang.

I don't even know. They're probably scumbags, too. They always are.

All of them are scumbags. No matter which side you choose. This isn't anime.

I miss Gaddafi. When I was younger I always thought he was a lolcow leader with his occasionally wacky antics before I found out why Hillary Clinton salivated over him getting brutally murdered and sodomized by US backed rebels.

The way Gaddafi got done never sat right with me. He was a complete piece of shit in the 70s and 80s, but he'd mellowed out over the 90s and having watched Iraq collapse in days before the US military decided "None of that for me, thank you" and had been being a good boy playing by the rules. He payed out a massive settlement to the Lockerbie victims' families (the fact the piece of shit who did it got to die free at home is 100% Scotlands fault), was getting along and playing well with others, renounced terrorism....
And then gets slaughtered in a ditch due to the Frogs launching airstrikes he couldn't counter.

This has to be the fastest collapse I have ever witnessed in my lifetime. I didn't get to witness the fall of the USSR so this is something in my life.

Nicolae Ceausescu still holds the world record for speed running from in-control to fucked% which is 6 days, and in-control to fucking dead% in 9 days.

 

[30+GameOvers]

Well, a destabilized country without proper leadership will at least make it easier to pave way for Greater Israel. There is some comfort in that, at least!
I'm curious how the rebels managed to speedrun their victory so quickly this time around, if it was that simple then the rebels would have won last time.

Didn't Gaddafi die conveniently right after he spoke out against the petrodollar, or when he said he was going to use another currency? Seems self explanatory to me.

He had to actually to govern the country, not just control it. Syria is in shit state with no prospects, so it's no wonder people are not inclined to defend it. Nothing has been improved there since ISIS was defeated.

 

[Average Russian Spy]

I think it's fair to say Russia was the only thing propping Assad up at this point. You can look back at when things got hot with ISIS and see how the SAA wanted to retreat multiple times, but Russian commanders forced them to stay and they ended up winning. The moment Russians aren't present, this shit happens.
I always liked Assad, but god damn, was the ball dropped hard.
I just hope his family is okay.

Truly feels like were getting some geopolitic chess move being played left and right after years of nothing truly happening and shit is about to hit the fan.

 

[Camel joe]

THIS JUST GOT Featured? Thank you null here's a rebel song (nasheed) to celebrate!

I just hope his family is okay.

I hope not.

I suspect in a lot of cases, controlling the country amounted too a given town or locale wasn't in active rebellion and so the government didn't bother garrisoning it.

Or you had Shabiha militias and the like extorting the locals, while the local rebels were "reconciled" meaning they signed a pinky promise pledge not to keep fighting.

While Assad controlled the bulk of the map-on the ground control was probably a fiction, or at best the people extorting the population were at least loosely pro Assad.

It is very likely Russia abandons Tartus base and the Rebels allow them to withdraw. Next most likely is the base is put under seige, under lock down, by 2600 buff, illiterate Jihadis until the new government is officially formed. There is nothing to be gained by needlessly provoking Russia.

I'm not sure how butthurt the Rebels are about Russia support for Assad. Because the lease payments on that base are pretty nice - its possible they come to an understanding. Money does talk - though the Ruble is suffering a bit of laryngitis currently....
