Of course they did it to themselves, by not surrendering the keys to their country immeadiately upon the US and international communities demand.
Merica only wants whats best for the Syrian people. That goes without saying.




The real Syrian opposition is fighting for and with Assad.

How much oil does Syria have. Not that much you say. Hmmmm.
I don't think they were ever asked for the keys dude. Just another failed despot.

The Golan Heights alone would make Israel an net exporter and the east of Syria has oodles and oodles of untapped resources. Why comment on an area where you don't even have a basic knowledge about the place.

Syria’s proven oil reserves, - Democratic Underground
Syria’s proven oil reserves, amounting to 2.5 billion barrels, are greater than those of all neighboring countries except Iraq: according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s estimation of its oil reserves. This makes Syria one of the largest producers and exporters of crude oil in the Middle East.

That is not counting the reserves off-shore. Getting a clue as to why the war is raging yet???

From a purely humanistic point of view, I find the video heart-breaking. I look at those ruined buildings and I see ruined families. I see the people who through no fault of their own - and there are innocents in this - had their entire lives torn asunder. I simply can't imagine what it must be like for those who were lucky enough to escape the carnage to see what has become of what was once their home.

No wonder, five million Syrians are on the move.

Assad is a monster, just the sort of ally that the Russians embrace,

No I was suggesting Boston is under snow rather than your posted street scene, go ahead post a pic of the same street today, that too much of a chore for you. lol Obviously.


5" and we're under snow. Give your head a shake.


No good news from the Rebel side, that would be your side ES.


The SAA is still trying to take Aleppo after years. Assad will never pacify Syria and the Russians will have to stay there for a long time. *snicker*

Because we in the West have promised the Syrian people to help them defeat their despotic ruler and bring freedom and democracy to Syria. The Gazans are all born virulently Anti-Semetic as are all other enemies of the Chosen State of Misreal.
Of course they are. They willingly engaged in a war of extermination against Israel in 1947 and haven't stopped their sh*t yet. Syria quit attacking Israel. Jordan quit attacking Israel. Egypt quit attacking Israel. All of whom ultimately recognized Israel's right to exist. Apparently the dipsh*ts running Gaza never got the memo.

That place is going to be a pile of rubble for decades. Construction companies need money and the Syrians and Russians don't have it.

Was just reading how Russia has taken a $600B hit thanks to sanctions. They can't afford a new outhouse for the Kremlin even if someone donated a spade and $50 worth of lumber.

How about a pic from today??



A pic from today he said! LMAO... what a tard

It was still Boston, you seem to have glossed over that part, typical trolltards. Does this look any different other than people were more inclined to pitch in back then?



And that is your state of mind 24/7. Was it Boston or not?? Simple question so you won't be able to reply.


It wasn't from "today" as you said though. Talk about moving the goal post.

And they needed to send even more aircraft to Syria to add to their financial woes. They are going to have to stay for years because as soon as they leave the SAA will be on the run again.

The "Stans" are scraping developement deals on with the Soviets left, right and center.

But they still have contract to build state of the art gaydar for the wahabis and their savage selves.

Id like to comment that after reading about the "Seige of Homs" that it makes the battles fought in Fallujah look like a "Weekend at Bernies"...

Pretty much. When opposing forces are unable to quickly finish the job it becomes a slow grind like Stalingrad. The Marines kicked the sh*t out of the insurgents in Fallujah rather quickly.

Drone on. How you going to reload when |Syria stops shooting but Russia keeps up it's patrols and the elimination of ISIS is not part of the 'cessation of hostilities' clause. Russia could say it was going after then terrorists that killed the pilot while he was parachuting down.
