Israel builds up forces near Golan citing rebels taking control https://www.timesofisrael.com/syria-rebels-take-areas-near-israel-border-idf-warns-them-not-to-turn-in-our-direction/

Edit: They've entered Damascus, taken the Republican Palace but Assad is not there.

Wonder what will happen to Russian bases near the sea.

I am hoping that Iran and Russia can get strikes going hard and fast to help inspire the official forces to keep going. Shit all is coming after Bashar al-Assad spoke of inaction in supporting Palestine resistance and stopping the genocide. Kind of reminds me of Gadhafi trying to wake up people about needing to stand against western imperialism and then being murdered by US backed rebels.

I am also hoping that the Kurds start merc-ing all ISIS prisoners that have been forced on them to hold indefinitely. Shit is already really fucking bad. The faster that internal threats are dealt with the better for their zone, and allow focus on repelling Turkey and other factions that will most certainly turn attention their way.

I mean Iran would pretty much have to outright invade Syria at this point, the Syrian army has pretty much disintegrated already.

That would utterly disintegrate any Pan-Arab cooperation. It would be seen as an aggressive opportunistic strike, even if the reasoning is noble.

Yeah I'm not arguing that they should, just that it would be the only thing they could do at this point if the only goal was to salvage Syria.

I agree. It’s just sad it’s a lose lose situation.

Assad couldn’t support Palestine because the Syrian army was on its last legs as we can obviously see. If they started getting hit by IDF forces the rebels would have pounced on them immediately and it would have been an equally devastating defeat. If not worse since part of Syria would have been under Israeli occupation.

What did you expect Assad to do?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They're not saying that? They're saying that this happens after Assad spoke about collective inaction to the genocide, precisely because Syria and Lebanon can't do all the fighting by themselves when there's this rabid dog of a state propped up by American guns and money.

Thank you! You got what I was trying to say 100%.
