COMMENTARY: Aleppo’s fall has much to do with the Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s geopolitical maneuverings — particularly his irritation with Syrian dictator Bashar Assad for spurning a long-standing offer of reconciliation.

Two constants in the Middle East: Kurdish suffering and indifference to their plight--as well as to the Armenians. The world also said nothing when Nagorno-Karabakh was ethnically cleansed last year. Colonialism lives--but when it's not Western, few care.

It's very funny that we got 30,000 breathless op-eds about how supporting Ukraine risked over-stretching the decadent West, but it's Moscow and Tehran who have to tell Assad that the only support they can spare him is thoughts and prayers - and not many of either.

I would call this more of a "yes, and" answer, but still, the big-picture approach of analysis in this thread enables a more accurate understanding of what is happening and what to expect.
Non, "mais"
-Non parce que les rebelles syriens ont leur propre agenda : virer Bashar. Ils ont juste bien évalué la fenêtre d'opportunité liée à l'affaiblissement de l'axe iranien&Russe en Syrie;
-Oui parce que les Turcs soutiennent les régions rebelles et ne se sont pas opposés à cette offensive.

bonjour est il possible que ces factions aient été aidées ou encouragées par des pays qui ont intérêt à ouvrir un nouveau front afin contre les russes et les iraniens?

Current developments in Syria have a scope which extends beyond just Assad. Any analysis that does not account for the long-term interests of (at least) Turkey, Iran and Israel in the region, is doomed to miss the mark.

I wish people were made to show receipts of their operations before casting blame.
How many doors did your team knock this cycle? This should be asked more.
Also a LOT of consultants get rich off Dem campaigns win/lose so there’s a huge financial incentive to blame others so they stay on payroll

As the platform continues to grow, I don't see public block lists staying as a feature. This is for several reasons, the main reason being that they are: (1) a platform-provided (2) public tool, that is already clearly (3) being used to target people (4) based on protected classes.
