They have a vetting process for direct supplies by CIA et al., but they don't care who the vetted rebels ally with, and they don't have a good control over where the arms go after they reach vetted rebel hands. They also turn a blind eye to the activities of regional funders like Turkey, Qatar, Saudi.
Not to mention there have been instances of "moderate" activities by vetted groups (nour al din al zenki, a CIA vetted group, beheaded a child on camera, and I think they recently joined a jihadist coalition.)

Ignore flag, Im not Mark.
The war seems to be in a dead lock, and by the simple fact that no single killing may bring down ISIS, FSA, Al-Nusra or the Kurds, however the death of Assad would destroy, totally, the SAAs efforts.
So it almost seems like the SAA is destined to lose and collapse as by pure chance Assad will sadly be killed or driven to exile.
Can anyone convince me otherwise? I really hope the SAA retake the east.

The US establishment is not a monolith. A lot of the bureaucrats in the Agency and the DoS and DoD are necons and internationalist liberals. Read: people who still think in terms of Russia = gommunism = bad, and people who believe the US should impose its liberal values on the world) They are driving all the propaganda, and the support for the moderates.
They either believe strengthening the terrorists is preferable to leaving a Russian ally in place, or really believe their own "moderate" shtick.
Then there are the realists or reformed internationalists like Obama (yes, really), who just want to keep the US out of the mess as much as they can and keep dragging their heels. But the US president is not all powerfull; he has the deep state trying to pull him into a war.

/SG/ I have to discuss how the United States successes (LOL) and failures to defeat ISIS, the current strategy, and major challenges.
The way I have seen it so far the US military drops off guns for (((moderate))) rebels but they lose their way into ISIS hands and the US acts as ISIS's air force by bombing brave Syrian Army soldiers. And lastly the United States had a hand in creating ISIS with the large power vacuum after pulling out in Iraq and destroying Libya, with Clinton and Obama being the mother and father of ISIS.
Any recommendations to articles would be appreciated
>rebels will rush through aleppo and into deir haffer
Henry Watson
The simple fact that he has so many people out to kill him and the longer time goes on the more likely his assassination is. I mean, where can Assad be that is absolutely 100% safe?
I feel like balkanization is the only thing that can possibly happen, the SAA would simply be incapable of advancing into the east while dealing with extreme insurgency at home and in newly reclaimed territories with their depleted manpower.
ISIS is getting its ass handed to it in Iraq and in the north east, but still the final push to drive them out of the south and reach deir ezor is far away.
Just chance. So many people want to kill assad and where is totally safe for him to stay while still rule?

I've posted this a few times, but I bet most of you still don't know. I have very reliable intel that the french foreign legion is scheduling all of it's regiments for combat deployment in libya next year.

Henry Rodriguez
kek poor guy will go full mental when this war finishes
Blake Thomas
This is South Front being intentionally misleading as always.
Look at a map. They're not deployed via the Idlib supply line, they're in Azaz and Marea helping the Turks. There's a line of YPG between them and the Syrian Army. It will get interesting though when the rebels advance around them to the south and hit SAA lines. Many of the rebels the Turks have deployed there are veterans of the fighting in Aleppo against Assad, I have no idea what they'll do when they get there.
Honestly I've wondered for a long time if that Affrin YPG advance to cut the rebel route from Azaz to Aleppo was ordered by the US because it helps the Americans divide the battlefield - it keeps the Jihadists in Aleppo away from the FSA at the border so the US and the Turks have exclusive influence over them, and allows the US and Turks to safely deploy their troops without JFS showing up from Idlib to kill them.
Chase Martin
Wait, what?
It's not like it's completely unrealistic, but given how much time has passed since the war has begun and how many opportunities there were to do that, it's not a likely scenario at this point.

Justin Adams
Most US weapons shipments go to the Iraqi Army and the Peshmerga. A select few, though only of small arms, go to the YPG. Arab SDF units get direct support. Some FSA groups, ones with the stated intention not to create an Islamist Syria, are given small arms and TOW missiles - since more than half of all rebel fighters are Islamists/Jihadists, this isn't that many, and in most cases the Saudis or Turks do the supplying rather than the CIA.
So far, only a couple of TOWs have ever fallen in Jihadist hands - and, since the US has no tanks for them to shoot at, they ended up used against the SAA anyway. The TOW program is actually extremely successful, far more successful than the effort to actually protect the secular rebels from the Jihadists.
To say the US is ISIS's airforce would be to ignore the thousands upon thousands of bombs they've dropped on them and the thousands of ISIS members they've killed, the oilwells blown up, the tankers destroyed and the leaders killed. The only ISIS bigshot they haven't killed yet is Al Baghdadi - the rest of the 'original crew' have all died from US airstrikes, commando raids, or those by its allies.
Jace Butler
>keeps the Jihadists in Aleppo away from the FSA at the border so the US and the Turks have exclusive influence over them
Hadn't thought of it that way. Since the U.S. has mostly worked with the other canton group, I always imagined that was just the Afrin troops seizing the opportunity to get closer to the other cantons (with no protests from Assad since they are now a buffer against Azaz rebels).
At some points /sg/ was much lower in activity and it was useful for organization purposes
Christian Ward
someone detonates a gigantic explosion near where he is, there may be a coup, he could be killed by a turncoat soldier...etc
I also feel like Assad and the SAA rely on the ideological belief of Syrian unification (and thats understandable, but not achievable), which means they must absolutely retake land from the FSA, Al-Nusra, ISIS and Kurds meaning if in victory, there'll be hundreds of thousands who'll want him dead. Will he hide forever?
The situation he's in is really depressing for me, I feel like its hopeless without a total genocide which would be stopped by the UN/US immediately.

Not really, but they've been talking about Lybia for a while now, so moving forces from Syria to there isn't exactly surprising. The carrier group just finished the sea trials for the FCAS, now they'll just qualify some new pilots and if it doesn't break again we should start bombing from the sea in a couple months, and that will be more than enough to keep up with our ISIS killing quotas

Ah yes, the good old White Helmets.
>someone detonates a gigantic explosion near where he is You need to smuggle explosives inside Damascus and close to the president. I'm plenty of sure that the security is tight enough there, considering Assad is even being bodyguarded by Best Koreans.
>there'll be hundreds of thousands who'll want him dead I don't think you fully understand what you're talking about, but the fact is that even the dumbest rebel commander understands that when all your ties to outside funding are cut, you won't be able to make a successful coup or start another civil war.
>I feel like its hopeless without a total genocide which would be stopped by the UN/US immediately. See, the fact that the US is getting more and more butthurt over Aleppo mean exactly that Assad is winning and he's winning something that's very valuable in countering him. The US slowly digging it's own grave with this war, so to speak, with the way they're acting.
Nolan Jones
I think it's a happy coincidence, I'm just spouting conspiracies. The US doesn't have much contact with the YPG in Affrin because of the Turks' reservations, and I doubt the Pentagon would order them to attack rebels funded by the CIA. We know the PYD want to create a contiguous state, I imagine it was simple opportunism that just worked out for the US in the end.
If they did do it, it would be brilliant, but I've no proof, and I regularly discredit Russian claims for lack of proof out of hand despite the conspiracies floating about, so to nto be a hypocrite, I'll chock my theory up to wishful thinking.

MOSCOW, 29 September 2016, 17:15 — REGNUM, the Ministry of defence of the Russian Federation responded to the statement of the US state Department about the possibility of terrorist attacks in Russia in case of continuation of the Syrian war. The corresponding statement was made today, September 29, reporters the official representative of the Russian defense Ministry major General Igor Konashenkov.
We will remind, earlier official representative of State Department of the USA John Kirby at a regular press briefing directly threatened Russia that in case of continuation of the war in Syria, in Russian cities can be committed terrorist acts. Konashenkov said that the Russian side is well known where exactly and exactly how much in the Syrian Arab Republic, including in the province of Aleppo, is not advertised, Western "experts" that are involved with operational planning and direction of operations of the militants. As for the threats from the state Department about possible losses of Russian aircraft and send Russian soldiers home in "body bags", in that conversation the American side it is better to avoid any hints of threats by Russian soldiers and Russian citizens, wherever they are.

No, it's a recruitment strategy. Al-Qaeda explicitly is only in Syria to fight the Shia as part of its global Jihad. Most Syrians have no interest in global Jihad, they just want Assad gone. Their "domestic" rebranding is an attempt to make them seem more like Ahrar al-Sham and other nationalist Salafists rather than international crusaders, and thus be more appealing to Syrians.
The US still classifies them as terrorists and, were they not currently fighting Putin and Iran, would probably be bombing them too.

Two times is not "all the time" you Putinfag. It's inevitable that as long as Deir ez-Zor is SAA controlled and there are ISIS-controlled oilwells in the area that the US will bomb the area. They almost always manage not to hit the SAA though simply because they usually don't bomb ISIS units fighting the SAA.
If Obama wanted to bomb Assad, he has a prime opportunity, a prime excuse to do so in Aleppo, but he's not doing it yet.
I love how the US can bomb ISIS thousands of times, but bombing the SAA twice by accident counts as "ISIS has an airforce". You people are pathetic in trying to make the US look like the bad guys here.

>a prime excuse to do so in Aleppo Without UN mandate he hasn't. Giving an ally of russia/iran a legitimate casus belli is the last thing they want.
Samuel Fisher
And the very same day they bombed a couple dozen ISIS targets and killed its Propaganda chief.
The SAA has only been hit by the US twice, while thousands upon thousands of bombs have rained down upon ISIS.
Why the fuck would they intentionally bomb them only twice, and in Deir ez-Zor of all places? If they really wanted an excuse to bomb them, they would have bombed Qamishli during the Hasakah fighting or Aleppo/Latakia after the aid convoy bombing and Aleppo siege.
You have neither evidence nor a logical argument to support why the US would target the DEZ garrison on two disparate occasions.
Jordan Anderson
When your bombings slaughter dozens of soldiers trying to fight for their homeland against Isis and against every goatfucker you've supported then yes, Isis does have an airforce and that airforce is the USAF.
I don't known if you're some really stupid /k/ fag or just a shill but its clear that the united states isn't seeking the destroy Isis right away. They're trying to shepherd them towards Syrian lines so they can fight their battles for them. The only forces actually fighting them directly and clearly are the Kurds, Iraq and the Syrian army.

Luis Green
It was during a tenuous ceasefire, and any defensive formation in Deir Ez Zor is irreplaceable considering it is drowning in a sea of ISIS. I don't think the purpose was to just bomb SAA I think it was to sabotage a ceasefire that had unfavorable conditions, and make it harder for the pro-diplomacy camp within the U.S. to continue their efforts.
Christian Cruz
Why would America bomb the people they arm and fund?
They wouldn't so the logical conclusion is they are there to bomb Syrian government.
Brayden Brown

Adrian Turner
French wiki page : "Coalition air forces mistakenly bomb loyalist forces (...) IS then claims the control of Mount al-Tharda (...) According to Russian MoD, 62 SAA soldiers were killed, and more or less a hundred injured in four strikes by two F-16 and two A-10. The OSDH says at least 90 died.
Jacob Walker
Also, you can't just say it's 2 out of thousands as if every air strike is equal. Sources say at least 60-80 SAA were killed, that is a massive amount and considering the area they bombed was a crucial point that held on since forever, it would be near impossible to mistake it for an ISIS position, especially considering the U.S. is actually very good at pinpointing targets.
Nathan Ramirez
They've bombed them TWICE you dipshit, and not intentionally. They're only ISIS's airforce for a couple hours in total at very specific places, and unintentionally. That doesn't count as an airforce, especially since on those very same days they also bombed the shit out of ISIS.
The straw grasping is real.
Everyone fights ISIS, it's just a question of priorities. They're the Kurds' #1 enemy, so the Kurds fight them every day. They're Iraq's only enemy, so they fight them exclusively. The Syrian Army doesn't have the strength to go after ISIS, and in any case the rebel forces behind their frontline with ISIS in Idlib, Aleppo, Homs, etc are far more numerous than the paltry forces ISIS has facing the SAA, so mostly a few SAA sit around while most of them are off fighting the rebels.
At the moment the biggest fights against ISIS are south of Mosul and against the Turks in Aleppo, which ISIS have massively redeployed to meet due to Dabiq being under threat and that being all-important to their ideology. They believe that just as these Turks attempt to take Dabiq from them Jesus will come down as a demi-god to save them and lead them to victory or some stupid shit.

Given that Obama doesn't actually want to fight the Russians, I'm still not seeing any convincing reason to think this is true, other than you want to believe it is.

God you're stupid. If you actually believe the US arms and funds the very people they bomb around the clock every day, you're completely down the Putin propaganda rabbit hole and I can't help you. Reality does not matter to you, you just hate America and will believe whatever allows you to maintain that claim.
Isaac Peterson
He may not, i have. Deir ez-Zor is an oil route and an important road to pretty much anywhere in syria. Securing that point means not taken absolutely fucked up roads or a huge detour. Why not bomb Aleppo? Simple, high risk. Qamishli is partly secured by proxies and turkey probably so whatever.
Bentley Myers
They are bombing them in Iraq, because they are of no use to them there. They never bombed ISIS in Iraq when they took all those humvees, tanks and heavy rocket launchers, to bring into Syria. Even though they could and should've done that, you tard.

ISIS was only a couple hundred yards away and since they have no one on the ground telling them what's going on, the confusion is rather understandable.
I have no proof for the following, as the SAA would never admit it nor is there any evidence taken by anyone if it, but there were anecdotal reports that the troops on that hill weren't SAA regulars but militia of some kind (NDF?) and they weren't wearing uniforms, so the US mistook them for the similarly uniformless ISIS troops.
But no not every airstrike is equal. For example, bombing a couple ISIS machineguns - ok, whatever. But the US also blows up all its fuel supplies, its oil wells, and even blew up $1 billion in cash they had stashed away for buying weapons. Added to all the tactical airstrikes against ISIS units they carry out, like that massive convoy that go obliterated leaving Fallujah, and targetting of ISIS commanders, killing all of their original, capable leaders tot his point except for Al-Baghdadi, and they've hurt ISIS not just more than they've ever helped them against the SAA, but more than anyone in this war.
Jack Lopez
This Canadian In Asspain is well-named. Perhaps the reason no one believes you is because your argument depends on rigorous logic aiding people who think they can shuffle sipr and nipr assets, then blame everything on mysterious Russian hackers.
Adrian Russell
I actually love Americans, US government is occupied though and these days they don't even pretend to get congressional approval for war. America admits openly that materials and money have gone from moderate beheaders to ISIS, do you think they couldn't predict that when they are different in name only? Are you a shill or just braindead?
Brody Scott
Because they had no aircraft in the area at the time dipshit. It was so sudden they hadn't deployed yet. And no, they were staying out of Syria at the time, because it was and still is a mess. It was only when the Kurds were threatened with genocide like the Yazidis that the US stepped in and saved them at Kobani, and thus became an active player in Syria.
Most of those US vehicles they captured from the Iraqis are bombed out wrecks at this point. Remember the convoy trying to escape Fallujah? Remember how they annihilated that? Yeah.
Liam Murphy
That's not America's fault? kek 30.000 Iraqi ''soldiers'' fled when they saw 2k armed ISIS militants lool

Oliver Bennett
You don't have to "believe" me. You're the ones making conspiracy theories with no proof, just "They would totally do this because...well they just hate Assad so no matter how random and pointless this strike is, it MUST have been intentional."
You people are out of your minds, but I expect no less from /sg/.
Tyler Morales
Yes, but not intentionally. And these days, very little, since the SAA has surrounded the rebels and cut them off from contact with ISIS. Only the rebels in northern Aleppo with the Turks have contact with ISIS, and that contact is not friendly, I'm sure you know.
No money has as far as I know. I wouldn't doubt the Saudis have, but the Americans haven't. Hell they won't even give TOW missiles to all the rebels, let alone ISIS.

All US forces were required to withdraw from Iraq in 2011 by an act of Iraqi parliament, so they all left. They had no one there.

Joseph White
I didn't mean that Obama is doing it, I think it was a sabotage by factions within the U.S.
Your explanation for how the mistake might have happened makes sense, I don't claim to know what happened, but it doesn't seem impossible for it to be intentional either

The idea that the Pentagon would actively sabotage a peace deal to...I don't know, try to start a war with the Russians? It doesn't make any sense. Mercs and spies are air groupings. They cannot bomb those ISIS attack groups. Follow the convo.
Jack Adams
What? In 2014 US was already carrying out airstrikes in Iraq.
>Remember the convoy trying to escape Fallujah? Which was a handful of trucks with RPGs, whilst all the heavy armor is either still in possession of ISIS or was captured by Hezbollah.

Nolan Morgan
>FFL going to Libya they're a wee bit too late
Ian Clark
Yeah, but not until after that initial blitz. They couldn't stop those vehicular attack groups initially because...they weren't there.
ISIS doesn't have much armour at all, at any point in time but certainly not now. They have a few tanks captured from the SAA and that's about it.
Robert Stewart
not true.
iraq pm maliki even complained about the little effort the us put into airsupport for iraqi military offensives against isis. also he complained about the us delaying delivery of ordered jets needed for their missions.
Jose Russell
Not a war perhaps, but to make it so that the only way forward in Syria is military instead of diplomatic. I can see neocons and neolibs alike orchestrating such a thing. My only reason for thinking this way is that the "mistake" came at exactly the right time during a last straw sort of ceasefire, on a place that was guaranteed to anger the Russians and the SAA because of its importance

Samuel Cooper
What exactly does Soros gain from India and Pakistan launching nukes at each other?
And let's not forget that it's literally the same shit as to what happened in Afghanistan.
Charles Wright
There's a different between lack of co-ordination and lack of effort. The US eventually deployed a significant air grouping to Iraq as well as a carrier, but since they had left Iraq, they had no embedded liasons with the Iraqi army, so they mostly bombed ISIS targets behind the lines. Thus the Iraqis complained they weren't getting frontline tactical air support. Once Obama felt he could acceptably deploy sufficient troops to Iraq, the scope of air-ground co-ordination was increased and the Iraqis could start relying on US tactical air support, as they do right now.
What I'm waiting for is for the Russians to do this with the SAA. Only in places with notable Russian troop presence (Latakia, Aleppo, Palmyra) do the Russians provide timely tactical air support. Look at Hama currently - Russia planes fly over the area all day but they're either bombing targets in Idlib or on their way to Aleppo. Only the SAAF has been bombing the rebel attackers in Hama and they have been ineffective at tactical support as one might expect given that they're not very competent. This says to me the Russians have not sufficiently invested in ground co-ordination.

Juan Hughes
And they have. What's the issue?
I know about the airdrop mistake. Again, so what? Even in that case it's just a couple crates of small arms, it's not a huge deal.
Or were you expecting perfection? I mean the US military is good, but no one is perfect.
Christian Turner
They didn't have AIRCRAFT or significant ground forces beyond mercs and advisors, neither of which are used for frontline combat. The AIRCRAFT part is significant. They couldn't have struck those ISIS attack groups without AIRCRAFT.
Easton Baker
this neo-con namefag is boring
Gavin Gomez
Is there an actual source on those US troops near Aleppo? The video OP provides mentions some Lebanese news report, is there an actual article or something that exists?
Jayden Wood
the bombing being a phenomen of internal rivalry of between a wing which favours diplomatic efforts and neocons is somewhat convenient but it does not explain why they put literally zero effort into achieving any of their obligations according to the ceasefire deal. mod ru reported 360 ceasefire violations. at the very beginning ahrar al sham (kerry related to them as 'our guys') declared they do not accept the ceasefire (as did plenty of others). none of the oh so moderate groups distanced from al nusra. in east aleppo 'people' demonstrated against (sic!) the aid convoy (flags of fsa nusra and ahrar al sham present at the demonstartion). though saa actually retreated from castello road for a day, there was not any such movement by jihadis, instead they shelled the west. only thing the us did was handing over the location of the rebels groups fostered by them and shortly later bomb deir ezzor.
Eli Flores
>What's the issue? That they keep arming terrorists, instead of arming them as long as it benefits them and only will start destroying them after their initial goal is achieved.
>Or were you expecting perfection? Are you just going to ignore the rest of it? I even linked an interview with an Al-Nusra commander from few days ago, that openly says that they're getting funded and trained by all kinds of countries, including US. And even the US has acknowledged Al-Nusra as a terrorist organization.
The US didn't, mistakenly attack SAA in Syria, that's retarded. Considering that the SAA and ISIS positions haven't changed in two years now. And everyone knew that, even fucking Hohol maps.
Michael Wilson
I only saw it on the Hohol map. I don't doubt it's true though, the US does have a Green Beret platoon attached to the Turkish units in Syria. Whether they're /exactly/ where that report says they are I don't know, but they're there with the Turkish Army, no doubt.
Carson Morris
>*instead of bombing them...
Jason Collins
Well, they can't all be lifetime achievement winners like raqqa raphael.
Julian Nelson
Yeah I don't see any reason to think they would randomly strike DEZ for no reason.
If they were actually going to strike the SAA to some discernible end, they'd probably strike Qamishli.
And they don't intentionally arm terrorists. Though the Saudis do, and I'm really not a fan of the Americans' alliance with them (though if the Saudis become punitive because of that 9/11 bill, I hope we see the end of it).
Adrian Lee
Qamishli doesn't make sense because they can't claim accident there. As opposed to Deir which is surrounded by U.S. targets
Nathan Brown
Except that the US is forced to keep a carrier in the Gulf, so how come no planes? Also they have land based fighters there, im pretty sure of that.
Dominic Howard
>Yeah I don't see any reason to think they would randomly strike DEZ for no reason. Why would they randomly decide to help the SAA against ISIS all of a sudden then to begin with? And without even giving any kind of warning or acknowledgment to the Syrian government or Russia?
>they'd probably strike Qamishli Why would they?
>And they don't intentionally arm terrorists. They don't care who they arm, as long as they can deal with the main problem. They know they can deal with the terrorists afterward. This was the scenario in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and is the same with Syria. youtube.com/watch?v=PYnV4L-6FNY
Nathaniel Cook
So where here /comfy/ despite having a hurricane raging by? I certainly am since I got all my supplies and weatherproofed the house earlier in the week. Not to mention got rid of all branches overhanging or threatening the house.
Glad to see we have reached zero hour and the advance into Aleppo has properly started. So of course we get the US pouting and throwing a tantrum that Russia and Syria have to stop killing terrorists.
If their threats about flooding Syria with manpads are true. It just means that any peaceful end to the conflict is off the table. Only the destruction of the terrorist forces will see an end to the civil war. Which means the US will have to rely on the Kurds very hard to keep Syria from stablizing. Which of course will piss off the Turks to no end.
Washington is severely fucked in the chess game that is Syria.

No, they had no land-based planes in Iraq.
The carrier I don't know. I have no idea the exact whereabouts of their carriers at the time Daesh attacked.
In any case, Obama didn't even authorize an intervention until August when it became clear the Iraqis could not handle ISIS and the US would be forced to intervene to prevent a genocide of the Yazidis. You have to remember Obama wanted to be the man who got America OUT of Iraq. He didn't want to be the man who turned around and went back in.
The US state Department found evidence that the convoy was destroyed by Russia?
Bentley Green
the us watched. could at least have attacked suply lines behind the front lines. guess what, they did not. apologetic fucktard. same in syria. russia dwarfed all strikes of the great us coalition combined in a few months. now shill off.

At least the Russians actually have aircraft to put on their ships. :(
