>Taliban routs commando company in one of Afghanistan’s most secure rural districts
Last week, the Taliban launched an assault on the district of Jaghuri in the embattled eastern Afghan province of Ghazni. Reports in the Afghan press downplayed the severity of happenings in Jaghuri, which is considered to be the most secure rural district in all the country due to the demographics and geography.

However, reporters from The New York Times who were on the scene saw something much different and far more terrifying than what was reported in the Afghan press: an Afghan Special Forces commando company that was sent to bolster defenses was routed, while security forces and government officials were attempting to flee the scene as Taliban forces advanced.

As The New York Times noted, Jaghuri, which is considered to be “Afghanistan’s Shangri-La,” has until now been immune from the Taliban’s insurgency, despite that fact that it is located in Ghazni province, which has been a hotbed of Taliban activity. Jaghuri’s population of 600,000 is predominantly Hazara and are opposed to the Taliban. The Taliban has isolated the remote district by cutting off roads, but refrained from attacking it.

Until now.

Last week, Taliban fighters (more than 1,000 of them, according to the Times) pressed their attack into Jaghuri while also assaulting other districts in Ghazni. Reports from Ghazni, such as this one from Khaama Press on Nov. 7, parroted the official Afghan government line that the Taliban was “pushed” from the district as military reinforcements arrived. TOLONews echoed this sentiment on Nov. 7, when it quoted Interior ministry spokesman Najib Danish.

“Enough equipment has arrived via air to our forces and backup forces have been deployed there. The situation is under our control, but clashes are still ongoing,” said Danish told the news agency.

Yet, as the Times reported, by Nov. 11, the situation in Jaghuri was in disarray. Security forces have all but collapsed. An Afghan Army Special Forces commando company which was sent to Jaghuri to help shore up the local militia that secured the district, was rendered combat ineffective. Of the 50 members of the Special Forces commando company, 30 were killed and 10 more were wounded.

The commander of the Hazara militia was killed and three of his sons are missing. Local Afghan officials pleaded with a delegation from Kabul to send reinforcements, but none came, despite promises. An official from the Ministry of the Interior downplayed the deaths of the commandos, and claimed they were local militiamen, despite the fact that the bodies of the soldiers being stacked in front of him were wearing commando uniforms.

As of Nov. 11, Afghan officials and all those who could leave the district were attempting to do so. The Taliban are said to be just miles from the district center, where the remaining security forces and militia are holed up.
>Afghan forces seemingly on the brink of collapse

The Taliban’s rout of the commandos and collapse of Afghan forces in Jaghuri, and the government’s inability to send reinforcements, should come as no surprise. The Afghan military and police forces have been unable to defend Afghanistan’s rural areas and have been overrun at a host of bases, outposts, and checkpoints throughout the country over the past several years. The Taliban overran four significant bases in the first six days of this month. Since the beginning of this year, the Taliban has routed a commando company in Ajristan district Ghazni, and inflicted heavy casualties on Afghan Special Forces in Farah.

To remedy the problem, the US military and Resolute Support – NATO’s command in Afghanistan – advised Afghanistan’s ministries of defense and interior to pull back from rural areas and defend more populous areas. In theory, this should have preserved Afghan forces and defended the bulk of Afghanistan’s population from the predations of the Taliban. In practice, it has resulted in a degraded security situation and has put the Taliban in an even better position to threaten and attack Afghanistan’s population centers.

While US and Afghan military officials have claimed that Afghanistan’s remote areas are strategically insignificant, the Taliban has used its mastery of them as a springboard to take the fight to more populated areas. In these remote districts, the Taliban has established its shadow government, which it uses to spread its ideology and further its military aims. Here, the Taliban taxes the local populations, recruits fighters, establishes training camps and military stockpiles, while using these areas as staging points to attack neighboring districts. In the south, the Taliban controls and hotly contests a band of districts, panning from Ghazni and Zabul in the east all the way into Helmand, Nimruz, and Farah in the west that it uses to take the fight to the Afghan government. Over the past six months, this safe haven was used to launch major incursions into Ghazni and Farah cities.

The Afghan military has been unable to halt the Taliban’s slow but inexorable attacks that have taken place in all regions of the country. The size of the Afghan military has decreased at a time when more, and not less, soldiers and policemen are needed to stave off the Taliban assault. Over the past year, the size of the Afghan security forces has decreased by almost 9,000 personnel due to casualties, desertions, and failure to reenlist.

The Taliban clearly has the initiative and Afghan forces are on the defensive in many areas in Afghanistan. It is unclear how long the Afghan security forces can suffer losses such as the one in Jaghuri. Casualties are at an all time high, and the cumulative effect on morale of Afghan forces cannot easily be measured since elite forces and military and police bases are overrun with shocking regularity, at this point on a near daily basis.

>Russia, Jordan and Egyptian Delegation Blame Israel For Gaza Violence
DAMASCUS, SYRIA (11:30 P.M)- Russia has joined in on condemning Israel for Gaza violence, following a covert Israeli assassination mission.

Russia, Jordan and an Egyptian Delegation, have all declared that Israel is responsible for the violence in Gaza. The Russian condemnation comes after an Egyptian delegation to Gaza, set up with the purpose of creating a ceasefire, place the blame on Israel for starting the violence.

More than 10 Palestinians are dead, as a result of Israeli airstrikes and violent attacks. 50 Israelis have allegedly been injured, by Hamas rocket fire, although the large majority of the injuries are panic attacks.

It is claimed by the Israeli Military, that 80 targeted strikes have been launched against Gaza. Hamas claim that over 300 rockets have been fired into Israeli held territory.

Israel bombed the ‘Al-Aqsa TV’ Palestinian media building, in Gaza, also recently striking and destroying the Al-Amal Hotel (Gaza City).

Updated statistics on the dead are not yet available, although the Palestinian Ministry of Health puts the number at 10, within around 24 hrs.

It would have taken a while for Iran to integrate into the world economy again, so of course there would be little improvement. It also was always unlikely that over seas investment would have come to the rescue anyhow. To hot a spot considering the region. The reimposing of sanctions will likely do little to actually make things worse.

I dunno, it would look like a big long bulge from Jaghuri to Malistan; or even worse, an ugly bulge area that bottlenecks between Jaghuri and Moqor(Muqur).
Take note that Khaz Uruzgan is contested, so it's simpler to shift around the frontlines in east Uruzgan province, and then have it like the ANA is attacking from east Uruzgan.
My personal rule is "Go the simplest way for maps and minimize border gore". Fair?

Unless you have proof that the ANA are present in the area between Malistan and Jaghuri.

is this a sign that the NATO leadership already giving up on doing anything?

>>185777
Checked. It seems the Taliban are faster than the ANA.
ANA focuses on one place, Taliban attacks another place, then ANA arrives to defend that place, the Taliban attack yet another place.
Just like Vietcong against the South Vietnamese Army.
>>185787
Pingu, you member when we talked about the Taliban's endgame - taking the countryside while the ANA retreats to the populated areas, then the Taliban raid/besiege the populated areas and begin taking over one by one?
Do you think the Taliban have already or are entering this endgame? I mean, look at the Districtmap - 7 districts containing the provincial capital are contested by the Taliban with them contesting two capital cities (Farah and Ghazni) this year alone, and actively closing in on Maymana, Tarinkot, Pul-i-Alam with minimal NATO involvement afaik.
>>185792
IIRC, NATO has advised the ANA to retreat to the populated areas and let the rural areas fall to the Taliban since the ANA is being overstretched.
Of course, this plays right into the Taliban's hands since their short-term goal is to seize the countryside and then use the countryside to launch attacks on the populated areas after cutting them off from each other.

>>185797
>IIRC, NATO has advised the ANA to retreat to the populated areas and let the rural areas fall to the Taliban since the ANA is being overstretched.
in a majority rural country where most of the income is from agriculture and subsistence farming, the afghan government is set to lose (or be heavily reliant on mutt gibsmedats which will make them more easily influenced by said mutts)

>>185798
Never said they were smart. ANA is screwed no matter what they do:
>If they take the fight into the rural areas, they overstretch and the Taliban can surround/rout them and the cities fall faster
>If they don't take the fight into the rural areas, Taliban takes the rural areas, delivering a crippling economic blow to the gov't leading to increasing desertion, and lay siege to the cities.
Btw, I remember some reports about ANA deserting/defecting due to low to zero pay and low willingness to fight for the gov't due to them being a lost cause.

BEIRUT, LEBANON (6:00 P.M.) – A series of intense clashes broke out this afternoon between the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and jihadist rebels in the southern countryside of the Idlib Governorate.

The clashes broke out when scouts from the pro-government National Defense Forces (NDF) caught several militants trying to move towards the Syrian Army’s lines near the town of Al-Taman’ah.

According to a military source in nearby Hama city, the Syrian Arab Army unleashed a barrage of machine gunfire and artillery shells towards the militants.

The jihadist rebels responded with heavy gunfire of their own before they backed away from the Syrian Arab Army’s lines in the southern countryside of Idlib.

This latest exchange resulted comes just hours after the Syrian Arab Army and Free Syrian Army (FSA) clashed in the northern part of Hama.

While no ground advances have been made, the Houthis have reported that they are remaining on high alert in Hodeidah.

I really cant say they got the government on the backfoot if they stop now they will give the ANA and coalition forces some breathing room(that is not to say that fighting completely stops in winter but the tempo is not the same as the spring and summer seasons).

>Kurdish-led SDF chasing Baghdadi in Euphrates River Valley
The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) are fighting Daesh leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s followers and family members in Hajin, an eastern Syrian town about 50 km west of the Iraqi border, a Sun correspondent embedded with the militia has reported.

“In other battles, the jihadists had other places to run to, but in Hajin they have nowhere to go,” SDF commander Havel Ronnie Walat told the outlet. “Here it is only the true believers left and they will fight to the death,” he said.

Earlier, Moscow accused the US-led coalition of resuming airstrikes in the area using white phosphorus bombs, and said the attacks were causing casualties among civilians trapped in the area. On Wednesday, Syrian media reported that the coalition used cluster bombs in Hajin and the nearby town of al-Sha’afa, leading to multiple civilian deaths. The coalition has repeatedly denied using cluster and white phosphorus munitions in populated areas in eastern Syria.

Commenting on rumors that al-Baghdadi may be hiding out in the Hajin, Walat revealed that the terrorist head honcho’s brother “was in the area recently (and) he was holding a meeting encouraging people to fight. Also, about a month and a half ago, we got intelligence that we killed (one of) Baghdadi’s sons,” the commander said.

The SDF commander said that “significant numbers” of foreign fighters remain trapped in the area, including fighters of Afghani, British, Chechen, unidentified European, Iraqi and Saudi origin. He added that the fight against the terrorists for the area has turned into a crawl, with Daesh using vehicles in suicide bombings, building tunnels and placing improvised explosive devices everywhere.

“[Daesh] have had over five years to prepare,” Walat said. “It’s very slow work [and] we are having to take [territory] house by house, metre by metre.”

“We will begin the offensive against Hajin soon…but I don’t think this battle will be done quickly. This is not a war that can be won quickly,” Walat emphasized.

Over the course of the war against Daesh in Syria and Iraq, al-Baghdadi repeatedly evaded assassination attempts by the Russian, US and Iranian militaries.

In September, Iraqi media reported that al-Baghdadi narrowly escaped death after showing up late to a meeting of terrorist commanders. The terrorist issued his latest address to followers in August, urging them to continue the jihad and to “burn” the infidels.

>Saudi Coalition within 5km of Hodeidah Port
BEIRUT, LEBANON (11:10 P.M.) – The Saudi Coalition and their allies have captured a large chunk of southern Hodeidah over the last two weeks, putting them within striking distance of the port for the first time since they lost the provincial capital.

Led by the UAE-backed Southern Resistance Army and Yemeni Republican Guard, the pro-government forces scored a big advance inside Hodeidah city after they managed to overrun the Houthi troops near the municipal hospital.

Once the municipal hospital was under their control, the pro-government troops set their sights on the strategic Hodeidah Port, which is heavily fortified by the Houthi forces and their allies at the northwestern part of this western Yemen city.

According to the latest map from the Islamic World News, the Saudi Coalition and their allies are now withing 5km of Hodeidah Port.

Should the Houthi forces lose this site, they will no longer have a major Red Sea port under their control; this would leave them under a land, air, and sea siege.

>Militants and moderates still not separated in Idlib: Russia
The separation of radical militants from moderate opposition groups in the demilitarized zone in Syria’s Idlib region has not yet been successfully achieved, Russia’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Thursday.

The process, which was launched as part of a deal between Turkey and Russia in September, has not been successful despite efforts by Ankara, she noted.

Syrian Ambassador to Russia, Riyad Haddad, said on Thursday that the upcoming meeting on Syria in Astana, Kazakhstan to be held in the near future will be dedicated, in particular, to the implementation of the Russian-Turkish agreements on Idlib, TASS reported.

On Tuesday, Syria’s Minister of State for National Reconciliation Affairs Ali Haidar said that it was still premature to talk about a reconciliation process in the Idlib province since the situation in the militant-held region remains “fragile,” according to Sputnik.

>No sleep for rebels in northern Hama as Syrian Army expands assault
BEIRUT, LEBANON (12:40 A.M.) – The rebel forces in northern Hama are likely getting little sleep after the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) expanded their assault to several areas around this volatile front this evening.

According to a military report in northern Hama, the Syrian Arab Army’s 4th and 11th divisions pounded the trenches of Jaysh Al-‘Izza, scoring a number of direct hits with their artillery shells and surface-to-surface missiles.

The report claimed that the Syrian Arab Army specifically targeted the rebel defenses in the towns of Al-Lataminah, Al-Zakat, Tal Sakhar, and Ma’rkabah.

No further details were released regarding the Syrian Army’s attack on northern Hama tonight.

This latest attack by the Syrian Arab Army comes just hours after they heavily targeted Jaysh Al-‘Izza’s trenches at Al-Lataminah.

>US Senate proposes new bill to prohibit arm sales to Saudi Arabia
A newly proposed bill in the US Senate would suspend the sale of weapons to Saudi Arabia and block refueling of Saudi warplanes bombing Yemen, as punishment for the death of a Washington Post columnist.
A group of senators on the Foreign Relations Committee, led by Bob Menendez (R-New Jersey) and Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) introduced the “Saudi Arabia Accountability and Yemen Act of 2018.” It was sponsored by three Democrats and two Republicans.
Menendez, who is the top Democrat on the committee, said that sanctions against 17 Saudi nationals introduced earlier on Thursday by the Trump administration were “not enough” to ensure a credible investigation of the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, and pressure Riyadh into ending the war in Yemen.
“This legislation is an important way to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for various acts in Yemen as well as the death of Jamal Khashoggi,”said Graham.
“We are putting teeth behind these demands with regular oversight, sanctions and suspension of weapons sales and refueling support,”Menendez said.

I think it should both remain as the united 50 states, while also being 50 seperate states to form their own alliances and unions (Confederacy for example)

I mean, each state should be granted such great autonomy to the point of being de-facto independent and free to pursue their own domestic/foreign policy with a forum for all 50 states on foreign policy matters concerning all 50 states, and this can be accomplished by shrinking the federal government to being basically only for "the common defence" against foreign threats as cited in the Constitution.
Fun fact: before the Civil War, people referred to the United States as "The United States are"
Afterwards, it became "The United States is".

But they should be kept together through a loose union (pic related) like the EAEU, and all 50 states should have a military alliance so if one is attacked, all 49 others come to the defending state's aid - just because the states aren't bound by an all-powerful federal government doesn't mean they're weak. If anything, they're stronger without a tyrannical federal government breathing down their necks.

But none of that will happen until after civil/race war resulting in the overthrow of the government and new checks for future security against corruption. I predict this war will happen within the next 5-10 years, and I'm wondering if I'm being generous with that estimate.

That is how it was envisioned, considering the articles of confederation.

Despite the hype, things are still good in the United States. Many people are rich and despite the corruption things remain stable. There are no day to day bombings or organized groups commuting acts of terror. It will take a real depression or a bad war with China to actually make anything like that pop off. Besides, people will just leave if things get too hot. People leaving is why Venezuela is not in revolution, and why problems in Africa are not actually being solved. Unless it explodes quick the incoming American disaster will be a slow burn.

THIS

>>186125
IMO as the economic problems are becoming bigger (see wealth sharing during the 50's where the average worker could have a house, healthcare and education without too much struggle vs today where the wealth is far more concentrated in the hands of the very rich who are getting more and more tax cuts while the average worker gets his job taken by robots and is struggling to pay bills (most americans are living paycheck to paycheck with little to no savings)) the societal problem will become too much for the government to bear/ignore and will have to shift it's budget to fixing the society and less to the foreign policy (monetary aid to allied countries, military expenditure to keep troops abroad etc) otherwise' they might face a venezuela style massive protest in the long term
so i'd say america will be forced to make more concessions in terms of foreign policy and be forced to cooperate more with countries they're allied to instead of imposing their will as they're doing right now. this will leave the way for other regional power to expand their influence locally and supersede american presence at the border of their empire (afghanistan, ukraine korea etc)
so although we may not see a purely isolationist america in the future (ie their presence/influence will still be seen far away from their border in europe/ME/asia), their influence will be lesser than it was in the 90's and 00's (no more unilateral invasion of countries)
IMO the people saying USA will collapse/ turn into 90's russia are over-hyping it

>>186253
>I predict this war will happen within the next 5-10 years, and I'm wondering if I'm being generous with that estimate.
Eb, we are nowhere near that level here, it would take a massive infrastructure collapse, apocalyptic natural disaster across the whole country, or outright martial law takeover of the states, etc. Right now the only war here is one of words between those who put themselves in the left vs right spectrum, and the majority of Americans are more worried about what they are eating later and how many Facejew friends they have. Consider the fact that the 60's saw massive political upheaval, assassinations, radical groups, niggers getting emboldened and rioting, and the like and it never spread outside of major cities. One could make the argument that the 60's were a lot different than it is now, but ultimately the foundation is fairly the same, and it would not spread to many areas of the country outside of major cities, mostly on the west coast.
>>186336
excellent post Doc, I would also add that as you referenced the societal problem in regards to wealth/social needs and a need for the government to shift more focus and resources away from foreign entanglements and back to domestic ones the individual states will probably lead the way on this and get some much needed separation from the Federal Government in regards to decision making. Many states openly defy the Feds on decisions at a rate that is steadily increasing, whether passing laws that the Feds don't recognize but can't enforce (see recreational marijuana laws or California defying immigration regulations) or economic deals between states, different tax laws, etc. Ultimately you will see states taking more matters into their own hands down the road, imo

>>186352
> the 60's saw massive political upheaval, assassinations, radical groups, niggers getting emboldened and rioting
yep, america is far from having daily mass riots (read country wide riots) and bombing and political assassinations
and even if it reached such level it doesn't mean USA would collapse see northern Ireland during the troubles or Algeria in the 90's
it'll take more than a big chimp out to bring a country to it's knees
and we're very far from that in USA today
>b-but muh liberals talking about overthrowing trump
big talk, as long as no mass action is being made (im not talking about sporadic lone wolf attacks, i'm talking about organized cells going full taliban style insurgency) then you can rest assured, and even if it happens, it doesn't mean it'll necessarily lead to a civil war
people tend to underestimate the power of secret services

>>186355

Asking for a friend

The Syrian Army (SAA) and its allies have imposed their control of al-Safa amid collapse in ISIS’ positions in this heavily fortified area, a source in the SAA told SouthFront on November 17.

According to the source, the heavy rain destroyed most of the fortifications and hideouts of the terrorist group during the last few days. This forced the remaining terrorists to flee towards the eastern Homs desert, where ISIS maintain a small pocket.

The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) confirmed that the SAA had made a significant advance in al-Safa and said that the highest positions in the area are currently under the army control.

“Our units in the southern region made significant advance in al-Safa and imposed fire control on the remaining ISIS-held positions,” the SANA quotes a military source as saying.

Meanwhile, Syrian pro-government activists reported that the SAA had killed, injured and captured dozens of ISIS fighters during its final push in al-Safa. “Abu Hajar al-Sheshani,” a senior ISIS military commander in the Damascus desert is among the terrorist killed by the army.

The SAA launched its military operation in al-Safa following a brutal ISIS attack on the southern governorate of al-Suwayda in late September. The army faced several major setbacks in the course of the operation. However, it finally achieved success in mid November.
