Sergei Lavrov, Russia’s able foreign minister, has formally accused the U.S. of supporting Jabhat Al-Nusra (Alqaeda), an organization considered terrorist by every nation on earth except the Zionist Apartheid Entity. Not only does the UN consider Nusra a terrorist organization, but, also, the American Department of State. Lavrov stated that it was obvious the U.S. was not willing to fight Nusra in Syria based on their inaction whenever opportunities arose to strike that terrorist group. Just as the U.S. created Alqaeda, so did the U.S. create Nusra. Remember some of my old articles about this subject: Nusra which means “assistance” in Arabic was created by Robert Ford and Bandar bin Sultaan when they realized that the Syrian Army was not falling apart – that there were insufficient deserters to fight the Syrian Arab Army, and, thus, there was a need for assistance. Nusra is plain and simple Saudi Arabia. To what extent Muhammad bin Salmaan, the reigning clown prince, is willing to continue to finance that organization is anybody’s guess at this stage. Notwithstanding the finance issue, it appears clear that the U.S. is prepared to do all that is necessary to preserve the terrorism in Syria through the offices of Nusra. This is a shameful day in American history.
The Tiger Division, led by Maj. Gen. Suhayl Al-Hassan, is massing at the borders of the East Ghouta. I have been informed that the division comprised of over 11,000 soldiers which also fields improved T-72 tanks with Saraab 2 anti missile equipment is preparing for the last push to eradicate Jaysh Al-Islam, Nusra and Faylaq Al-Sham once and for all. The battle could start at any moment. I suspect that once Jaysh Al-Islam has been vanquished, General Al-Hassan will be tasked with wiping out Nusra and allied terrorists in Idlib. How the U.S.will help Nusra will be most indicative of Washington’s dirty hands.
Syria’s vaunted Popular Defense militia is entering ‘Afreen as I write. The Turks, who have no experienced field commanders, (Erdoghan having jailed or cashiered almost all of them) have threatened to strike Syria’s pro-government militias since, by Turkish logic, they will be protecting PKK fighters. This is an interesting development seeing ‘Afreen is Syrian territory. Now we will see how Russia reacts if Syrian forces are hit by the Turk army. Of interest also is how Iran, which has a mutual defense pact with Syria, will respond if the Turks trigger the pact. So far, Iran has been extremely critical of Ankara’s actions in the north of Syria. We at SyrPer do not believe the Turks have the muscle for a new war to their south. While we have deep suspicions about the Kurds, they are, after all, Syrian citizens who look to Damascus for help and protection.
It is a virtual certainty that Donald Trump has no idea about what is going on in Syria or Iraq, for that matter. He is consumed by a narcissistic obsession with how he is perceived globally. As of today, the CIA is running foreign relations for the United States without any involvement by Rex Tillerson who seems clueless, rudderless, at sea. These are the same CIA spooks who bet their world on overthrowing Dr. Assad. They are now back with even more vitriol, pushing a Zionist neo-con agenda despite the radical changes on the ground.
The United States, as I wrote before, is in a fallback position in Syria. With a large number of special operations soldiers helping the so-called Syrian Democratic Forces, they are especially vulnerable today. Planning in Moscow and Damascus has shifted substantially from fighting a defeated ISIS to now extirpating U.S. forces from the country. A lot will depend on Iraq’s cooperation with Damascus. If the Iraqis deny the U.S. rights to fly over its territory, Washington will have to scrub any agreements with the Kurds in order to use Incirlik in Turkey. It’s a mess. The only other alternative, is the Zionist Terrorist State’s airbases which will bring about a potential WWIII or something truly horrible. The U.S. has cornered itself. It is trapped between a rock and a hard place with no perceivable way out. Just as Afghanistan is sucking American energy, so will this latest adventure in Syria. And it’s just beginning.

the Thylacine FWIW. some war geeks have this — ”RUSSIA appears to have sent two of its most modern stealth fighter jets to Syria
Footage circulating out of Syria today appears to show two of the distinctive aircraft arriving at Russia’s Khmeimim air force base on the shores of the Mediterranean. As they came in to land, a Su-35 fighter is seen to swoop past protectively. The unverified footage has interesting implications, if true. Moscow has been swept up in scandal as its citizens seek explanations for an alleged 200 Russian casualties in a clash with United States aircraft and artillery earlier this month.
It denies it ever happened. But, on Monday, Russia’s foreign minister abruptly warned President Donald Trump not to “play with fire” by imposing its will on Syria. Even in itself, such a move involving the stealth fighter is odd. The secretive Su-57, also known as the T-50 PAK-FA, is still in its prototype phase.
It first flew in 2010. Less than a dozen functioning prototypes exist. It’s being touted by Moscow as its “F-22 killer” — a stealth fighter of sufficient fighting power to take on the best in the US air force fleet, and win.” Let us dream it’s true.
