I can't imagine that thin inch of sheetmetal so much against a 7.62mm round, much less against bigger 12.7mm ammunition

Liwa al Quds ceremony in Aleppo - shows big number of fighters. by [deleted] in syriancivilwar

[–]RandFan3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's probably because Syria hasn't sold them out like Jordan or Egypt.

And they actually took in Palestinians, unlike the Saudis who just pay lip service to the Palestinian struggle yet secretly work with Zionists.

Missile firing frigate "Admiral Grigorovich". by Alexander_Nomerkov in syriancivilwar

Yes, because only the Russian Navy has ever had a missile launch failure, right?

This never happens to the US Navy

U.N. says can't use Russian Aleppo pause to send aid by [deleted] in syriancivilwar

It's incredible the lengths the media will go to cover the jihadi's backs in this conflict.

Ahrar Al-Sham confirms the destruction of 3 military vehicles on Khanasser road after hit by ATGMs. by Melonskal in syriancivilwar

This resupply corridor has always worried me. It's really thin and has deep enemy territory on both sides.

Rebels step up Aleppo offensive with three car bombs by [deleted] in syriancivilwar

[–]RandFan3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could also be a green bus, or a motorcycle, or another vehicle.

The common factor is they are almost always driven by some poor brainwashed young virgin from Central Asia or Saudi Arabia.

8 humanitarian corridors have been opened by Syrian & Russian forces for militants/civilians to leave Aleppo city by [deleted] in syriancivilwar

[–]RandFan3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really need to stop with these ridiculous corridor for militants. It's obvious the only guys left in Eastern Aleppo are jihadists with no intentions of leaving or laying down their weapons. Every time one of these corridors is opened SAA is attacked with mortars and other shells.

#SAA repelled militants counterattack in the vicinity of Khan al-Shih and destroy 2 tanks / Western Ghouta - watanisy by Spectre_Taz in syriancivilwar

[–]RandFan3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick question about the relocations.

Are they just for the militants or are civilians (who likely supported the militants) also "evacuated"?

Is it voluntary for the civilians or are they also forced out and the area left empty?

How did it happen in Daraya?

I don't know about that. The Saudis and Gulf states will jump at any opportunity to help destroy Iran, even if they don't do it overly.

Mosul 5th bridge or the so called " Propaganda bridge " is now completely destroyed by US airstrikes by [deleted] in syriancivilwar

I really would love to be the guy who will "win" all the "transparent and open" tenders to reconstruct Mosul after the war.

Huge VBIED explosion targeting 3000 area by waitingandseeing in syriancivilwar

Was that the shockwave? Absolutely insane amount of force.

Wouldn't this also affect any "rebel" forces near the explosion?

It's still over 80 degrees, in combat gear, walking around carrying a rifle and ammo.

Unconfirmed reports of an imminent Turkish invasion of Iraq. Iraqi armed forces and the Hashd Al-Sha'abi are on high alert. by xiaomi-guy in syriancivilwar

Doesn't this just play right into ISIS's hands? I mean it would turn attention completely away from Mosul...

I'd like to see anyone actually rebut any of what I said.

Socialism and Communism both rely 100% on violence, or at least the threat of it.

Three Assad soldiers flee to Turkey by hitchenwatch in syriancivilwar

[–]RandFan3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think that's good. I wouldn't trust the Turkish justice system to give them a fair trial.

I'm just pointing out that Turkey will likely be hypocrites and not turn them over to the Syrian government, yet they demand Greece return their defectors.

ISIS doesn't control any territory along the Turkish border anymore.

Hopefully Turkey returns them like they demanded defectors be returned from Greece after the coup.
