Not with all the fighting going on... and it is bad and non-stop.

No matter how many billions the Russians invest the opposition numbers grow. They are already battling each other for control of areas the Syrian government has surrendered.

It will be billions the UN spends, Russia will be getting big paychecks for material goods sold to Syria, Iran will get the energy contacts and the EU will gobble up the infrastructure contracts for the civilians so they won't bitch about how high the price goes.

Israel will be busy building a 3 sq mi island off the coast of Gaza for their new international deep water port/airport.

Have you seen their LNG trains? Longest trains in the world.


They are longer than the oil trains here in SK which became necessity after Obama wanted to up the kerogen content of the XL
That's actually a pretty good idea but there must be a point where the volume couldn't be handled. In that case they could be used to feed the product from the (remote) wells to the refinery and move the tracks as needed.

2 engines per car, we should be able to do better than that lol

You always were a big dreamer.

What is Syria going to pay them back with... rubble?

Post all the cheery propaganda you wish... the war will drone on and on as it has. And what a bloody one it is! Thousands are pouring into Syria to fight for one side or the other.

Al Queda even set a car bomb off in a Hezbollah controlled area of Lebanon! How poignant was that! Hezbollah being car bombed!

And Israel recently did ANOTHER air strike against Syria ... shattering another one of your myths of impregnable Syrian Air Defenses.

Israeli Bolsheviks are already pushing NG through Syria.


The Friendship line and the Islamic line are what is being fought over. Competition is killing thousands but who cares when they are labeled Hezbollah and al Qaeda to justify the Islamic line.

If you intentionally go small, like yourself, you might as well stay home.

Funds allocated by the ICC once Syria demands sombody pay for all the intentional damages that are part of a 'war' as declared by 5 of the Arab States in the area. Syria gets to decide who get the contracts. Golan Height products can go straight to Israel at a 'slight' discount once she shows they are for peaceful projects, like an experimental salt-water battery array near the Dead Sea (inexhaustible electric energy that could serve Europe and the emerging economy of Africa as the breadbasket of the civilized world compared to 'hell no I won't glow of the radiated NA' (2020 and all the rest of the plants in Japan go critical as everybody with ant brains will have abandoned the whole island)

Cherry is when you find it on page 14/15 pages, these were the top 3 headlines with 'syria' as the search term.

Al Queda even set a car bomb off in a Hezbollah controlled area of Lebanon! How poignant was that! Hammas being car bombed!
You really want to create sympathy for them on their home turf with elections coming up. The STL shut down completely once they made some political gains and the loses went and hid himself in the Palaces in Saudi Arabia, once he starts breaking off again then there is something about to happen so the US can have their parrot back in power. The arrests didn't take very long after the other recent attacks so their time in Syria has them well acquainted with their standard way of creating terror on civilians.

And Israel recently did ANOTHER air strike against Syria... shattering another one of your myths of impregnable Syrian Air Defenses
Israel does more complaining about Syria getting the S-400 system than I brag it up so they are doing a better job of selling how good it is than any vid youtube has. The US removed a Carrier Force as soon as they hypersonic cruise missiles were brought in.
Syria needs something that can pick off little rocks coming from space, on the shelves as we speak so not a project that need a decade of hard work.

I like the red star and circle for Jerusalem, is that now the 'official capital' on the maps for the area. The rest is not real important and the odds arte it was rebel controlled materials that were blown up via remote control rather than the invisible Israel air force. That far north it would have been a American missile that delivered the munition and the planes in the area was the cover so the real method of delivery was. Tell me you have at least heard of the Arrow3 system.
That is the highlight for the whole last week?? Not real impressive.

You just don't get it do you, the hardline Islamics that are causing all the trouble are fully funded by the werst to wage a covert war against the Muslims that could implement all the UN human right demands for all of it's citizens if it were not for the US only wanting hardline dictators in the area tha prefer most of the population be kept at the level that Indians are at in North America 100 years after they were forced onto them.

If you can't pay them to be bad then they get demonized in the press that only works so many time on most people.

They aren't opposed to Muzzies. That is a ruse so boobs like you go off on anti-Islamic tangents and support their cause. IF Muzzies really were a threat all ties with the Saudis would have been severed long ago.

There is no doubt if China, Russia, Germany, or France were to use drones as does America to advance their extraterritorial claims, I can just imagine the outrage from our hawkish brothers.

Hawkish as in chicken hawk?
Chicken Hawks - that is what they should name the drones, because they are piloted by pimply nosed little putzes in bunkers in the US who spent their whole youth playing computer war games and are too chicken to face their enemies.

LMAO... still living in your dream world.

A long slow grind of a war that will cost billions of dollars and take decades with no real source of money.

And they are coming from all over the world to slaughter each other.

What is this babble about? You lost all military cred when you insisted the Patriot was a ground to ground missile system.

Save the keystrokes on your board. You military knowledge is about nil.

Yemen has been a hot bed of trouble makers but the military has to be
much more careful about targets. Then again who might be travelling in
the procession? Terrorists are international and the war is international
therefore it is up to each nation to ensure they hunt down terrorists or
round them up At least drive them from within their borders and that is
not always easy to do either. Difficult call and disastrous result
There has to be a better way but the answer is not easy to find at the moment

Man... there was no procession. Whenever we hit a sweet target they say we hit a wedding.

How many times are they going to use that foolishness.

Capable was the term used. No wonder you lost the war as even Israel knows that if something goes up and goes bang and then comes down that it can be made to go up and then down before it goes bang.

How about off the shelf hardware currently available.
