I don’t understand the nuance of Syria, but even I can tell that this is a rock in Putin’s shoe and I’m here for it.
Man just a few days ago I was surprised to hear that the Syrian war was still going on
I can’t keep up with it all
Same. I can’t get my head round people supporting both Isntreal and Ukraine either.
Do you mean the hypocrisy of supporting Ukraine because they were invaded by Russia (twice now) and Israel which has attacked Gaza and Lebanon (and probably more if they get their way).
I guess that one makes a lot more sense to me because Israel has a long complicated history. Ukraine is relatively simple: they were happy to separate from the USSR and the invasion was attempted annexation.
Unless people have their head buried in the sand, Russia has been known to be a Mafia state. Israel, on the other hand, has been so effectively supported in post-world war II propaganda that they even taught us in school that Israel was to become a “safe place” for Jews.
Syria is completely unlike either of those though. It just appears to be a complete clusterfuck
Yes.
Assad’s whereabouts are “unknown,” so we get to guess which Russian city he’s in. My vote is St. Petersburg.
Someone on Non-credible Defense found a plane taking off right when he was supposed to have left, which crashed a bit after take off. He was probably on that plane and probably died, but no one is reporting on it because it’s unconfirmed. Odds are news networkd are gonna be days behind Non-credible Defense just because someone had the idea to check flightradar.
