>>206254yeah but the point is that his moderate voting base is going to realize that and it'll cost him a lot considering he's more or less the status quo candidate
so it'll force him to drain more in the radical pool (which won't play too good now that he's the "corrupt dictator who is the only one that israelis should vote for"), but he recently got dropped by his most radical allies because he was too soft on Palestine

>US warns Hungary, other allies to shun business with Huawei>The United States may be forced to scale back certain operations in Europe and elsewhere if countries continue to do business with the Chinese telecommunications company Huawei, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Monday in a new warning that underscores U.S. concerns about the firm.https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/pompeo-warns-of-risks-to-us-cooperation-over-huawei/2019/02/11/3d67669c-2e17-11e9-8781-763619f12cb4_story.htmlAll the "deep concern" regarding Huawei by US is obviously not just because of the Chinese state potentially having access to valuable data (tho data is increasingly valuable and ofc if the 5G company where American under the PATRIOT act data would have to be shared with US intelligence agencies). It's also clearly a sign of the economical and technological war going on between the US and China.
>>206249>>206250ayo, so basically exit polls show the new Gantz-Lapid alliance (center-left) is winning over Bibi's likud, but they still don’t have a majority bloc(need minimum 61) to form a coalition, unless they let the Arab parties in (very unlikely).
So likud and bibi can lose the general vote but still retain power since the right wing bloc(other parties e.g Lieberman) is still bigger overall.
but everything could change if AG decides to indict Bibi before the elections. Bibi is clearly panicking tho, he delayed his meeting with Putin and had a PR meltdown on national TV.

>>206399Yeah I am doing good, was very busy at work, then I used a month of vacation all in one go, plus since the conflict slowed down my interest has faded somewhat. It has all been so repetitive, no Idlib, occasional Israeli airstrikes, Russia; "We have proofs of American collusiion with ISIS, we just can't show you yet", Erdogan screeching, Israeli airstrikes, rinse and repeat.
I check on it once or twice a week but just haven't devoted that much time or thought to it since my work schedule changed up.
>>206399oh yeah, this "τι σκαρώνεις αυτόν τον καιρό?" translated as "what do you skate at this time?"

>>206402>i see logic is still a foreign concept for americansit's always easier for the IQ challenged to blame the party they don't like as opposed to the party they thought was actually going to fulfill all of their hopes and dreams.
>do you think he has chances of being reelected?I still think the key to his reelection would be that the Dems are still very fractured right now, they have so many constituent elements that they can't possibly satisfy if they don't find a common theme to unite under. Republicans are fairly straightforward and united on common goals, and most voters will consolidate behind the main candidate. When it comes to Democrats though, you have the old school "blue dogs" which are more geared toward the working class, then you have the moderates, followed by the LGBT tranny lovers, the socialists, the hippies, and the commies. A lot of these topics for them are interchangeable, for instance some moderates will also support the tranny lovers, but overall the Dems on the west coast are much different than the ones on the east coast. If I had to pick a candidate who would have the best shot I would think Joe Biden would have the best chance, he has an appeal to most of the various special interests of Dems, as opposed to Bernie Sanders for instance who veers fairly far left and would have issues getting the black vote.

Units of the Syrian Arab Army on Friday responded to terrorist organizations’ breaches of the de-escalation zone agreement by targeting their positions with intensive strikes in the southeastern countryside of Idleb.
news reporter said that the army units launched a barrage of rockets on dens, ammunition caches and command centers for Jabhat al-Nusra and groups affiliated to it on the eastern outskirts of Saraqeb city in Idleb southern countryside.
Several dens and command centers were destroyed as the result of the army strikes, while a number of terrorists were killed or injured and their weapons and vehicles destroyed, the reporter added.
SYRIA: Rockets launched by the rebels hit Assad's missile arsenal in Hama, causing heavy explosions
The rebel forces in Syria launched a barrage of Grad rockets at the Jorin military base in Hama.

about the yellow vest, it pretty much died down when macron gave some reforms (although the fuel tax wasn't removed, they just delayed its implementation for 6 months)
so the only one that are protesting are the most radical elements who try to REVOLUTION™ the government but since the moderate mass is gone, they have little to no traction

>>206433>>206426Here is the link from a part of it near the beginning, based on the conversation Doc and I had started arguing about it a few days before, but I couldn't find the exact starting argument. So if you follow it you will see a South African get involved, I can't remember if it was Deep or ZAlurker, and then at some point I get pulled back into it as well. It stretches over several threads, one of which culminates in Doc's "Might is Right" edition. Maybe by working backwards from the link I posted doc could find where the argument started exactly, my guess is on a Thursday because I didn't see anything on the Friday threads.

Original idea was seizing the entire border with Iraq, they lost the opportunity of taking Bukamal because Iran understood what's up but they are influencing Iraqi politicians to keep the Qaim-Bukamal crossing closed to civilian traffic (so Iran has a harder time smuggling shit).
Iraq claims they won't open the Qaim-Bukamal crossing for civilian traffic until Bukamal area (i.e desert and i guess other side of the river) is secure, a bullshit excuse, but you understand better why pro-SAA sources are accusing the burgers in Tanf are aiding ISIS in the desert.
>>206486>it’s also in artillery range of US/SDFThat's not an impediment to majoosi smugglers, the border being closed on the Iraqi side is.
>>206488i see, thanks for the insights

>>206613>implying the average mutt has such deep insights about what happening in idlib>implying they wont 4D chess their way out of it>implying "muh fake news from pootin agent" isn't going their main argument
>>206615>the average mutt has such deep insights about what happening in idlibYes, the average mutt knows the opposition are jihadists. Trump said it quite clearly during and after the election.
The "4D chess" would be blaming Assad like the example i brought up, but the mutts will still be biased against the rebels IMO.
>muh fake news from pootin agentAFAIK CBS are anti-Trump so the "fake news" narrative could happen (if it even gets reported) if they actually paint Tr*mp in a negative fashion for defending "FSA".
But generally i believe the public are anti-war and anti-FSA so i think most people who aren't relentless MAGAtards will think badly of Tr*mp in this scenario if that's the case.

>>206772>i think they'll continue until they get an appropriate response or run out of munitions.They will never run out of munitions I think. Ruskies will empty their depots, cheaper than utilizing these shells.
>i can't recall seeing any international outrage regarding the shelling situation yet I think a proper mainstream media campaign and it can be done in a week, few pics of dead women & children, some muh evil Assad shilling. Manipulating public opinion is easy. Than there'll be "Russia backs these monsters, they're shelling civilian areas daily, look, kitten sanctuary and Last Clown of Idleb :-("
Maybe western coutnries aren't pushing that narrative because deep inside the leaders now it's a literal alQaeda nest.
>>206779>They will never run out of munitions I think. Ruskies will empty their depots, cheaper than utilizing these shells.I remember details about GRAD rockets not being too cheap during the second RU-backed Palmyra offensive and it's probably the same for the later rockets and ballistic missiles but yeah regular shells will probably not run out.
>Maybe western coutnries aren't pushing that narrative because deep inside the leaders now it's a literal alQaeda nestYep, it's Erdomemes playground now.
Cheeto man warning against an offensive half a year ago was weird as heck though... but now that HTS is firmly in power i don't think he'll do that again.

Hama, SANA – The army on Sunday responded to terrorist groups’ breaches of the de-escalation zone agreement as they attempted to sneak from the surroundings of Latamina and Hasraya towns into military points in northern Hama.
SANA reporter in Hama said that the army units dealt with the terrorists’ infiltration attempts from the outskirts of Latamina and Hasraya towns towards military points in Hama northern countryside, using the appropriate weapons.
A number of the terrorists were killed and their dens were destroyed.
Terrorist organizations launch rocket attacks on safe areas in Hama countryside
Meanwhile, terrorist organizations continued their violations of the de-escalation zones agreement by launching shells on safe areas in Mhardah in Hama northern countryside.
SANA reporter said that terrorist groups, positioned in al-Latamneh town in the northern countryside, attacked with several rocket shells the town Zalin to the East of Mhardah in Hama north-western countryside, causing only material damage.
The reporter added that the army responded to the terrorist attacks, destroying fortifications and dens of the terrorists.

>>207135>Like firing 20 or so missiles into the Golan? They didn't have this high-level meeting for that, so if is really is a response it'll be much bigger than anything in the past.I think so too. Something weird going on, Zarif was really a capable diplomat, weird that Assad's visit and Zarif's resignation came together.. Something smelly is going on.
And the fact that Soleimani was present during Ali bin-Ali al-Ali and Assad..
Theory: Syria has lost patience and are about to go into Idlib, with the Iranians providing background support.
Syria does have the legal right to reclaim their sovereign soil; with Russia, Iran and even Turkey supporting 100% sovereignty and integrity of Syria in official statements.
Any merit to this or is it just wishful thinking?
>>207143I'm willing to bet the Turks won't fight the Syrian army as Idlib is almost 100% controlled by literally Al-Qaeda, and that would be extremely bad form for the Turks to be openly supporting a designated terrorist group.
Besides, the SAA can simply bypass the OPs the Turks have set up. They have political and intimidation value, but nothing else.
>>207135>They didn't have this high-level meeting for that, so if is really is a response it'll be much bigger than anything in the past.Exactamundo. Hamas and Hezbollah might chime in aswell in such a scenario.
>There's no need for such a high-level meeting between political leaders that Soleimani was present at.They'd park it there for a reason you know...
>But within Syria/Iraq?No-fly zone and owning the burgers epic style by launching an offensive in Syria.
Activating an anti-burger shia insurgency and/or force the government to tell burgers to fuck off in Iraq.
Other than firing missiles at burger bases in the ME, messing with Israel via Hamas/Hezb/Syria or arming shias on the arabian peninsula there isn't much they can do to wage an offensive war against "America/allies" outside of Syria/Iraq.
>>207144>>207143It's possible, as long as the t*rks aren't targeted directly.

>Indian defence ministry says no information about air violations into PakistanNEW DELHI (Reuters) - India’s defence ministry said on Tuesday that it had no information about Pakistani allegations that Indian aircraft violated Pakistani airspace.
Pakistan’s military said that Indian military aircraft crossed the Line of Control frontier in the disputed Kashmir region and “released a payload” after Pakistan scrambled its own jets, but there were no casualties or damage.
“I have no information,” an Indian defence spokesman said.

>India Says Many 'Eliminated' in Strike on Jaish Camp, 'Grave Aggression' Says PakistanNew Delhi: Indian Air Force fighter jets went across to the Line of Control early on Tuesday morning. India’s foreign secretary Vijay Gokhale said in a press briefing at 11:30 am that a terror camp in Pakistan’s Balakot was destroyed, and a large number of terrorists were eliminated.
The foreign secretary termed the airstrike as “non-military” preemptive action, and said it was “absolutely necessary” as the government had “credible intelligence” that Jaish-e-Mohammad was attempting more suicide terror attacks in various parts of the country and fidayeen jihadis were being trained for this purpose.
The terror camp that was destroyed, Gokhale said, was run by Masood Azhar’s brother-in-law, Maulana Yousuf Azhar. It was targeted as it was far away from civilian settlements and the strike would not lead to any civilian casualties.
“The existence of such massive training facilities capable to training hundreds of jehadis could not have functioned without knowledge of Pakistan authorities,” Gokhale said.
Gokhale hit out at Pakistan for not taking action despite knowing about possible terror camps. “India has been repeatedly urging Pakistan to take action against the JeM to prevent jihadis from being trained and armed inside Pakistan. Pakistan has taken no concrete action to dismantle the infrastructure of terrorism on its soil,” he said.
Like in the press conference after the 2016 surgical strikes, only a statement was read out and there was no Q&A. However, while in 2016 there was a joint press conference by the Ministry of External Affairs and the Ministry of Defence, this time only the foreign secretary was present.

“We saw trees fallen down and one house damaged and four craters where the bombs had fallen,” said Mohammad Ajmal, a 25-year-old who visited the site.

Complete Indian statement regarding the atttack.
>>207214Addendum to the first report
>Pakistani villagers shaken awake as Indian warplanes drop bombs near madrasaBALAKOT, Pakistan (Reuters) - Villagers near the town of Balakot in northeast Pakistan were shaken out of their sleep by what seemed like an earthquake in the early hours of Tuesday, only discovering once dawn broke that there had been an Indian airstrike on their neighborhood.
Indian officials said the raid destroyed a training camp of Jaish-e- Mohammed, the militant group behind a suicide attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir that killed 40 members of a paramilitary police force on Feb. 14. India’s foreign secretary said “a very large number of JEM terrorists” had been eliminated in what was the first Indian air strike on Pakistani territory since 1971.
The villagers, however, said only one person was wounded in the attack and they knew of no fatalities.
A resident, who did not want to give his name, said there was a nearby madrasa run by Jaish, though most villagers were guarded talking about their militant neighbors.
“There is this madrasa on the hilltop. The Jaish-e-Mohammed runs it,” he said.
Another person, who also declined to give his name said the militants had had a presence in the area for years.
“I belong to that area. I know for sure that there has been a training camp. It used to be there. I know Jaish people ran it,” he said.
“This camp was turned into a madrasa several years ago, but no one would still be allowed to get close to this infrastructure. There are scores of students in the madrasa at any given time,” he said.
Set in a wooded, hilly area in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on the way to the scenic Kaghan valley, some 40 kilometers from the de facto border with India, Balakot was of many towns that was devastated by as massive earthquake in 2005.
From what villagers could see, the Indian attack had missed its target as the bombs dropped exploded about a kilometer away from the madrasa.
India confirms air strikes inside Pakistan
Mohammad Ajmal, a 25 year-old villager near Jaba Top, where the attack took place, said he had heard four loud bangs in succession just before 3.00 a.m. (2200 GMT).
“We couldn’t tell what had happened. It was only in the morning that we figured out it was an attack,” he told Reuters after visiting the site, in a wooded hilltop area.
“We saw fallen trees and one damaged house, and four craters where the bombs had fallen.”
Fida Hussain Shah, a 46 year-old farmer, said he and other villagers had found pieces of Indian ordnance that had splintered pine trees on the hill but the only casualty was a man sleeping in his house when shrapnel broke the windows.

“Foreign Ministry officials have no knowledge of the resignation,” Mousavi said. Stressing that “Zarif’s account on Instagram is not fake”.
Moussaoui pointed out that Zarif had announced his resignation via his account on Instagram and the reasons remain unknown.
“Many thanks for the generosity of the dear and brave people of Iran and its authorities over the past 67 months. I sincerely apologise for the inability to continue serving and for all the shortcomings during my service.” Zarif wrote on his Instagram page.

>>207264>>207262Call it influence or whatever. ex shin bet chief said russkies prefer bibi. which is weird since center left is much more inclined to agree for concessions re:golan/palestine.
>>207263it's similar to the U.S ala Trump/right wing vs. everyone else. bibi vs. "everyone but bibi parties." leftists are tired of bibs since he's been PM for eons and not much has changed, mostly just stalling and doing nothing.
p.s. polls aren't very reliable here
last time they said likud and labor are neck and neck with slight favor for labor
in the end likud got 30 mandates and labor 20 and pollsters had to apologize for the massive fuckup.
>>207265>it's similar to the U.S ala Trump/right wing vs. everyone else. bibi vs. "everyone but bibi parties.i don't quite get it
in the US it was (slightly bit less than) half of the country wanted a conservative vs half of the country wanting a liberal, here the way you make it sound like is that bibi's party is cornered from all sides and is only supported by a fringe population
btw what are the reasons for people to support bibi when they basically know that he still wont get anything done except screech about muh iyy-ran from time to time
>>207266>here the way you make it sound like is that bibi's party is cornered from all sides and is only supported by a fringe populationNo I meant it's very divided in a similar way. The left had much more power in the past, but each war in Gaza has weakened them and many people flocked to the right.
>btw what are the reasons for people to support bibi when they basically know that he still wont get anything done except screech about muh iyy-ran from time to timePeople think he's charismatic and stronk because of his rhetoric.

Plus occassional artillery shelling or an air strike.
>>207280That nukes won't fly doesn'T surprise me, but a greater scale conventional intervention by either side is also not a possibility (also limited most likely) especially considering they will aggitate each other with these sporadic clashes and that one of them triggers a greater response...

Security forces of the Hamas Movement arrested the leader of the Iranian-backed Sabireen Movement, Hisham Salim, and many of the group’s fighters in a surprise operation on February 27, according to the al-Arabiya TV.
The Sabireen group was formed in early 2014 after some leaders in Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), including Salim, converted to Shia Islam and became dissatisfied with PIJ’s leadership and their stance as well as Hamas’s stance regarding the Syrian war, where it supported the Syrian Opposition.
Salim acknowledged in an interview with the Ma’an News Agency in 2016 that the movement is directly funded by Iran. However, he stressed that his group was non-sectarian, non-religious and not a “Shiite movement.”
In late 2018, the U.S. designated the Sabireen Movement as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) for carrying several attacks against Israel.
“They planned and executed terrorist attacks include firing rockets into Israel in September 2015 and detonating an explosive device targeting an Israeli army patrol in December 2015. Harakat al-Sabireen also previously established a rocket factory in Gaza that was destroyed in the summer of 2014, and the group had plans to carry out attacks against Israel in February 2016,” the Department of State said in an official statement back then.
The Iranian support for the movement was apparently viewed as a threat not only by the U.S. and Israel, but also by several Arab countries. A Palestinian source told al-Arabiya that the Hamas Movement took the decision to neutralize the group and seize its weapons upon request from Qatar and Egypt.
The operation against the Sabireen Movement will likely lead to the growth of tensions between the Hamas Movement and Iran, who cut down its financial support for the Palestinian group recently, according to al-Arabiya.

Israel, Russia mull creating group on foreign forces pullout from Syria – report
Israel and Russia intend to set up a working group, involving a number of other states, which will facilitate the withdrawal of foreign forces from Syria, a high-ranking source in the Israeli government told Sputnik on Wednesday.
“It was decided to create a group with the participation of Russia, Israel and several other countries, which will work on the issue of the withdrawal of foreign forces from Syria”, the official said after the talks. He declined, however, to specify the details of the initiative, including the countries that could be involved in the process in addition to Israel and Russia.

>ISIS has released a new photo series depicting executions in Nukhayb of Anbar Iraq.
An Iraqi lawmaker alleged on Wednesday that the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/IS/Daesh) leader Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi is traveling freely “under U.S. military protection” in the desert of western Iraq.
“IS [Daesh] leader Baghdadi is in the Western Desert in Anbar province under U.S. military’s protection… He travels between Iraq and Syria protected by the United States”, Iraqi lawmaker Hassan Salem said, as quoted by the Lebanese El-Nashra news outlet.
The lawmaker claimed that support of the Islamic State leader was provided from the Ayn al-Asad Airbase, where U.S. troops are currently deployed.
Salem added that the United States “supported Baghdadi out of concerns over the possible endorsement of a bill expelling U.S. troops from Iraq”.
Veteran journalist Elijah Magnier reported earlier this week that Baghdadi was believed to be hiding in the last Islamic State enclave in the Euphrates River Valley.
Citing an Iraqi intel officer, Magnier said the ISIS leader was believed to be trapped in the Euphrates River Valley, as Iraqi intelligence officers embedded within the terrorist ranks have provided information to Baghdad about Baghdadi’s whereabouts.

Hezbollah, RuMOD, SAA Tiger Air Force, and the entire Syrian armed forces have all been alerted and are preparing as we speak, and President Putin is preparing a ceremony for the brave vigilance and initiative of every /sg/ poster for carrying out this noble task.

also i heard something along the lines of "bekhokhekha" from the guy speaking, wtf does it mean?

>Satellite imagery I've seen shows that not a single structure in the training camp targeted by the Indian Air Force was damaged. Some geolocated strikes landed ~200m to the SW of the site, but there does not appear to be any material damage.
>>207741>yeah no, otherwise the fighting wouldn't be contained just to kashmirexactly. which is why the original assertion doesn't make sense. it's just india doing their "retaliation". whole thing will die in a week, just like Venezuela.
>>207741>that's far more smoother to the ear than the heavy german like "kh"I think arabic has a lot of ch/kh sounds as well. khan shaykun, xalab, xama, etc. but it depends whos speaking it and context. here when you hear arabic it's usually on tv seeing some hamas member threatening shit so it's always comes as crude/aggressive and very throat-y. but I've also seen a poetry shows on tv where it sounds more pleasant.
>bekhokhekhahmmm, no such word. maybe behakika ? "in legislation" from "hok"- law.
or perhaps behakira "in investigation".

>>207784Don't worry, most highways through deserts in Libya are like this. I find it hard to believe the lazy mercenaries even bother launching ambushes here.
They should definitely sweep the flanks and "secure" the border (it's impossible to really secure such a vast territory) though.
Besides, the flanks are nothing but desert, mountains and rugged terrain, the only thing getting reported are populated places.
>>207786IMO the deserts shouldn't be marked as being controlled by anyone, the battles are fought over the roads.
>>207796OMG that gif is amazing!
>>207796Also, has anyone noticed that in Syria, the secular government tends to control the cities, whereas the Islaimist rebels tend to control the countryside? Which I'd say makes sense because throughout the world cities tend to be more Left wing and less religious. Yet it seems to be the opposite in Libya - the big cities are Islamist-controlled.
This makes no sense to me...
Anyone have any answers?
>>207831>OMG*schnapp*
Yep, I know where this one is going.
Thanks for the compliment though.
>>207832Syria isn't comparable to Libya, since unlike Syria, the Libyan gov't fell.
What you're seeing is actually a rebellion against the gov't that was in power throughout Libya after Gadhaffi.
Plus keep in mind that the Tripoli gov't is backed by Italy which means a much shorter supply line from Europe than in Syria, Iraq, Afghan, etc, so fights in the cities are going to be harder than in Syria.
Furthermore, Haftar doesn't have the direct support of a superpower, he's pretty much on his own as far as boots on the ground and planes in the air are concerned.
Unless I'm missing some major things, which I probably am.

My current line of thinking is that Pakistan is full of Islamists (whom I hate), whereas India, despite having a Hindu nationalist, is more secular (which is good).
Ebin tried to convince me with "muh red team argument" but I think there are more important things than the countries that they happen to be allied with. India just seems more civilized on average (even when you take their streets being filled with poo into account)
>>207873>Fuck Bolton either wayAtleast he tried.
>>207877>My current line of thinking is that Pakistan is full of Islamists (whom I hate), whereas India, despite having a Hindu nationalist, is more secular (which is good).never have I cringed so hard
>>207880But doc, isn't that the main reason we all support Assad? Because he's secular and not an Islamist? I know there are other reasons but that's the main one, r - right?
>>207877> can you redpill me on why I should support Pakistan and not India?There is no reason for you to support Pakistan if you dont like us. No need to think so hard about it.
>Ebin tried to convince me with "muh red team argument"He merely presented his point view. He didnot enforce them on you.

>>207889it's not cringe posting in itself, it's misunderstanding the whole war
if it was a "secular" vs "religious" conflict then why would iran "religious" support assad while "secular" europe would support islamist
the whole war is more complex than just that
also the syrian government isn't secular at all by modern standards, that would be the kurds that would come close to anything like that
if you want to support assad for this sole purpose of "at least he ain't no radical islamist" then good for you but to think that such is the objective of the war or the reason such actors like iran and hezbollah are siding with him is deluded; it's more geopolitical than simply religious
also not everyone cares about the religious aspect of it all, if anything few people do, especially when you take into account the general position of said regulars over afghan conflict (more pro "religious" taliban vs few support for "secular" afghan government)
also there is this misconception that secularism is "good" and opinions vary quite a lot, even more when you put it in the context of a massive anti-liberal/feminist/secular sentiment among regulars and the average /pol/tard but that would be a subject of itself
>>207893I see what you're saying and I know that alliances are formed with groups who may differ greatly on some issues. I guess I can only really speak for myself and say that's why I first started supporting Hafter and Assad. But you are right, there are other reasons. Also the Kurds are secular, but they go way to far (Western degenerate-tier) and I dislike them for that. There's a healthy middle ground, I suppose.
>>207894>but they go way to far (Western degenerate-tierno such thing
this is what secularism inevitably leads to
every time, there's no liberal who'll say "guess that's enough liberalism" the overton window just keeps shifting to the left pic rel is very showing of the evolution of what the "right" and "left stands for
>There's a healthy middle ground, I suppose.what you consider today as healthy secularism" is what your grandparent would call western degeneracy and your grandchildren will think that your views are too far right
just look at the gay marriage debate, 50 years ago not even the left would (significantly) try to push for it and yet here we are today where it would be unimaginable (read: political suicide) for the "right" to try to reverse it, hell they even now pander to gay people (as in look at this gay representative i have in my party) because that's the norm now

Fuck both of them but India a little more for being depraved zionist streetshitters and having a bigger population.
The Turkish military sent another large convoy into northwestern Syria on Friday, several local activists reported via social media.
According to reports, the large Turkish military convoy that entered northwestern Syria on Friday consisted of several trucks carrying cement blocks and equipment.
The Turkish military convoy reportedly entered Syria’s Idlib Governorate from the Hatay Province and made their way to the nearby Hama Governorate, where they delivered the equipment and personnel to the observation post in the town of Morek.
This latest move by the Turkish military comes just days after they sent a delegation to meet with the residents of southern Idlib in order to propose an offer to rent out their lands so that they can build more observation posts and block the Syrian Arab Army’s (SAA) potential offensive inside the governorate.
Currently, Turkey has a dozen official observation posts inside northwestern Syria and an unofficial one inside the northeastern region of the Latakia Governorate.

Pingu, I've a historical question for you and I want local insight on this: How the bloody did this war get so out of control?
>map by Long War Journal, April 14, 2008
Was it corruption crippling the military? The economy? Low quality of life in FATA and KPK? Inept military leadership faced against okayish TTP leadership?
And how did the government restore control and maintain control? I remember you saying that the government is currently working on raising quality of life in KPK, I figure this had something to do with quelling the insurgency.
But still, damn. That created a dangerous situation, especially since this took place inside a nuclear-armed country.

>>207983>scared of the ChineseI disagree. The Chinese are the only hope for civilization to continue on this Earth. As Africans pour into Europe and Hispanics pour into America, the West is doomed to devolve into the 3rd and 2nd world spheres respectively.
The torch of civilization will pass to the Asians who will probably learn from our mistakes, close their borders and embrace eugenics and Ectogenesis.
I wouldn't mind living in a Chinese zoo, as long as I don't have to be placed in the same cage as Aboriginals or Blacks.
>>207968Chinese professors will admit that China's oil is high in impurities and that the country lacks the means to process it adequately. China exports its oil to Japan where it can be processed and imports sweeter crude from Arabia.
This isn't to say they aren't a superpower, but China has lots of issues and is more dependent than most realize.

>>207997>Was it corruption crippling the military?Yep corruption was far more rampant in the the paramilitary units that patrolled the frontier areas then the regular military.
>The economy?that has always been bad and has gotten worse still.
>Low quality of life in FATA and KPK?KPK is better off than FATA, people would go there for medical services and business from the agencies. It was the shit conditions within these agencies and the way everyone had been handling administration of FATA that created the environment for insurgency to take root. And everyone is to be blamed for this. The military, the government(both federal and provincial), the politicians and the tribes themselves.
>Inept military leadershipAye, the military was not prepared at all for the insurgency. They had been trained to fight a conventional war against India. Add in the existing corruption and sanctions from the pressler amendment and the ones applied after the nuclear tests(some of the restrictions were later lifted after the war began as a "gift" from the US but by then the sanctions had already taken a heavy toll on the capabilities of the armed forces) shit was real bad. The initial operations usually involved military bombing the shit out of a place forcing the insurgents out, cue a brown version of bushmissionaccomplished.jpg and the military would go back, with insurgents returning to the area again. The only units back then who were fighting effectively against the insurgents were the SSG and the NLI regiment but both were taking heavy casualties and being deployed in nearly all engagements combat fatigue was starting to set in. Also remember the military had made ceasefire pacts with TTP effectively giving them control of some areas in the vain hope to stop them attacking Pakistan and shift their focus to Afghanistan but they never lasted long and they kept on pushing forward(both sides would blame each other while some would lay it was Al-qaeda for stirring shit up not the TTP).
>okayish TTP leadershipBear in mind quite a lot of the TTP members were veteran of the civil war as well some as fighters from the kashmir insurgency groups such LeT JeM etc who were pissed off because of Pakistan's apparent alliance with the US. Add in the Al-qaeda, TIP, ETIM and IMU you get very capable fighting force on your hands in quite a large number.
>And how did the government restore control and maintain control?The government barely did shit (especially the two that were elected after Musharrafs time) they were too busy with their own faggotry. It was the military that mostly took care of things after introducing COIN curriculum reforming the military and the paramilitary units forming light commando battalions from the Infantry units(they werent good as the special forces but were better than the regular infantry and took the pressure off from the former) and appointing Pashtun high ranking officers in command of operations as they under stood locals and their customs and rebuilding infrastructure destroyed in the fighting( UAE really helped out in this regard. They gave a alot of cash for rebuilding). Also in the military effort to get TTP to stop fighting Pakistan instead focus on the afghan war(few of them did and some surrendered to the Paki military on seeing what TTP had become at this point of time. The ones who surrendered were integrated into Aman Lashkars which comprised of militias from tribes to patrol the areas cleared) but the real factor which broke the TTP in my opinion was their infighting. Though cells still do operate. Cross border raids do take place(and whoever tells you that the fencing of the border will stop the raids are outright bullshitting you).
Read this for an understanding of how the Pakistan military adopted to COIN operations. Its not entirely accurate but is a interesting read nonetheless.

This should have done a long time a go.
>But still, damn. That created a dangerous situationYou have no idea how bad things had gotten. Every place was getting hit be it schools, hospitals, mosques along with military and government institutions. A friend of mine used to joke that before the war if there was a suicide attack people would run to mosques to pray for peace now the people run away from them.
>especially since this took place inside a nuclear-armed country.I remember reading that once a US delegation came to Pakistan and asked to reveal all of our nuclear stockpiles and offered to takeover for safe keeping from terrorists. The Pakistani official blew his lid and told them to go fuck themselves this was just what the US and the Indians wanted so they fuck us sideways later. I dont know how credible this report was but I do believe the Americans had(and still do) contingency plans to take control through force if necessary.
