The War in Syria Continues Despite the “Ceasefire”
With the aid of it’s allies Syria
continues to make dramatic advances on the battlefield while the
terrorist death squads are in a panic. The shift has become so dramatic
that even in Washington perpetually disconnected from reality they
began to realize that they have lost this war. Of course the Empire of
Chaos has already shown that it will never actually give up it’s efforts
to destroy Syria an important front in it’s endless war on the planet.
For the moment however it has
decided against backing the plans of Turkey and Saudi Arabia to invade
Syria which would probably have resulted in a humiliating defeat.
Instead they have accepted Russia’s face saving offer of a “ceasefire.” I
was initially shocked by the news fearing a repeat of 2014′s Minsk
Agreement which stopped the NAF (Novorossiyan Armed Forces) from
exploiting their hard fought victory over the Ukrainian forces by
liberating any more territories from the fascist Kiev Junta. However
those fears proved groundless as this “ceasefire” excludes al Nusra and
ISIS allowing the Syrian Arab Army to continue their efforts to liberate
the country from terrorist death squads. Instead this “ceasefire” is
intended to be the initial stage of surrender for some of the smaller
groups of terrorist death squads. It is mean to neutralize some groups
while allowing the Syrian Arab Army to concentrate on destroying other
groups.
Of course it is only the first stage
and so long as the Axis of Chaos (US-NATO-GCC-Israel) continues to
flood the terrorists with weapons and supplies the war will never
actually end. In addition the Empire of Chaos will doubtless use the
ceasefire to regroup their forces and plan to smuggle in vast amounts of
weapons to the death squads. However Russia, Syria, and the rest of the
4 + 1 (Iran, Iraq, and Hezbollah) are well aware of the treacherous
intentions of the Axis of Chaos and will keep guard against such
schemes. The tide of the war has already decisively turned the death
squads desperate recent counter offensives have again ended in disaster.
Turkey continues to shell Syrian territory but doesn’t dare to invade.
The “Ceasefire” will not alter the direction of the war. The SAA
continue house by house, village by village to liberate their country.
First the “Ceasefire” the ominously
named Munich agreement. It basically boils down to an agreement with 97
groups (the number is constantly changing) They agree to stop fighting
and in exchange Russia agrees not to bomb them. A system has been set up
where the Russians and Americans have set up separate headquarters with
hotlines to monitor the ceasefire. The Russians are based in Hmeimim
Syria since unlike the Empire of Chaos they are there at the invitation
of the Syrian Government. The Americans are based in Jordan one of their
major terrorist launching pads into Syria as Sibel Edmonds revealed a
year before anyone else. Jordan created as a British puppet state has
somehow managed to escaped the infamy of it’s allies the Saudi’s and
Turks as sponsors of terrorist death squads. An amusing part of the
ceasefire agreement is that it exposes this Jordanian role but even more
so that of the United States as the prime backer of these death squads.
It likes to blame it’s friends for the endless atrocities of the
terrorist death squads and is now officially responsible for their good
behavior. For now Russia and Syria are turning a blind eye to the many
ceasefire violations 7 on the first day, 15 on the second, 21 on the the
third. (Syria 360 Publishes a daily report)
For after 5 years of war the people in
Syria are doubtless happy to experience even relative calm. It also
allows supplies to enter long besieged towns and helps spare the lives
of civilians trapped in terrorist occupied areas. And after 4 months of
heavy losses even some of the death squads are relieved and in fact they
are surrendering in increasing numbers. 1,200 agreed to lay down their
arms in Hama a couple days ago for example. Others have decided to
switch sides and fight their former allies. In the chaotic war the death
squads have often battled each other for the right to loot Syria and
Syrian and Russian intelligence doubtless have plans to use the
ceasefire to infiltrate and manipulate the death squads against one
another.
The recent string of successful
assassinations of top death squad commanders demonstrates they are
already having some success in placing spies and buying traitors within
the death squads. This has the added bonus of inducing paranoia in the
terrorists ranks as they begin to execute each other on suspicion of
treachery. The ceasefire will help to neutralize some groups, subvert
others, while freeing the SAA up for it’s planned offensive to liberate
the eastern half of the country from ISIS. Meanwhile it’s current
string of victories in Latakia and in Aleppo will cut off the flow of
supplies to the death squads meaning that the terrorists will be in a
much weaker position when the ceasefire eventually collapses. Clearly
the ceasefire not only marks a major victory in the Syrian war it also
offers many opportunities to spread demoralization and confusion in the
ranks of the NATO death squads.
Despite or perhaps because of the
announcement that the “Ceasefire” was soon to come into effect the
terrorists launched major counter offensives. They launched yet another
failed attempt to seize the Deir Ezzor a government held territory
deep in ISIS controlled eastern Syria a vital strategic point. The
Heroic City and airabase of Deir Ezzor so long as it survives foils the
long held schemes to break off the lightly populated but oil rich area
and join it with a chunk of western Iraq to create a saudi style Al
Qaeda state between the two allies. I should mention that Iraq has also
been making major gains in forcing ISIS out of it’s territory. Obviously
one of the most important details of the “Ceasefire” is that it allows
the war on ISIS and Al Nusra to continue hopefully the SAA and it’s
allies in the air Russia, and on the ground Russian and Iranian advisers
along with the legendary Hezbollah, and the feared Iraqi Militias will
be able to liberate the entire eastern half of the country, before the
US can try to recognize any future “wahabistan”. Thankfully even the
outrageous liars in corporate media would have trouble selling the idea
of ISIS as moderate rebels after spending years hyping them up as a
major threat to justify their launching of a third Iraq war and an
expanded war on Syria back in the fall of 2014. Yet that fact hasn’t
stopped them from stubbornly refusing to abandon these plans to break up
Syria. Instead it is the heroic defenders of Deir Ezzor who have
withstood years of siege and attacks to maintain a presence in the area.
Recently they sent hundreds of ISIS terrorists to their graves as they
smashed yet another major attack. I look forward to the day when the
siege of Deir Ezzor is finally lifted after the SAA liberate the
territory that separates them.
The SAA also foiled a major
counter-attack meant to slow their offensive in Aleppo province. The
terrorists siezed the strategic town of Khanaasir temporarily cutting
off the road to Aleppo slowing the progress in evicting the terrorists
who have been laying siege to the city for years. Luckily the terrorists
achieved only a temporary victory and the SAA and it’s allies managed
to retake the town killing hundreds of terrorists in the process. As
South Front recently revealed while the worlds attention was focused on
the Russian airstrikes Russian advisers were secretly providing valuable
assistance in rearming and retraining the Syrian Arab Army. Thus this
counter offensive was smashed by the SAA with much greater ease then the
counter-offensives last fall that also seized strategically important
roads but which took longer to evict. Thus their earlier counter
offensives stalled things for weeks while this latest attempt was foiled
in mere days. The terrorists were caught between two SAA pincer
movements and were slaughtered by Syrian Special forces who ambushed
them as they attempted to flee. This is a major sign that the tide has
irrevocably turned in this war. Of course the axis of chaos continues to
pour men and weapons into the country but the SAA is getting more
effective with every passing day.
With their series of defeats on the
battle field the death squads cowardly response has been to step up
their terror attacks on civilians a long series of car bombings continue
to take a heavy toll in civilian lives. Sadly Syria has been a victim
of these attacks for so long that what would be front page news if it
happened anywhere else is quickly forgotten when it happens in Syria. In
any case hundreds of Syrian civilians were killed in senseless bombing
attacks no doubt ordered, by the Empire of Chaos and it’s allies in a
spiteful revenge for the terrorists losses. Turkey is also launching
attacks in it’s impotent rage over the defeat of it’s terrorist proxies
and of course their covert forces disguised as terrorist proxies. It has
been shelling Syria from across the border harassing the YPG/SDF with
Russian air support and weapons from their Syrian allies have been
attempting to close the border into Aleppo. The Kurds have stubbornly
continued to advance despite the shelling. Maybe that’s why the turks
escalated towards nearly killing 30 foreign journalists covering the
conflict who of course caught the whole thing on video tape. According
to Pepe Escobar the US saved the turks and the saudis from themselves by
forbidding an invasion. This must be why the turks are starting to go a
bit crazy. An amusing detail according to Syrian Perspective a bunch of
Saudi generals wrote in to their mad king begging him not to launch an
invasion of Syria given that they were already losing badly in Yemen.
Rumor has it Turkey’s generals also had to explain to Erdogan the Sultan
of Chaos why an invasion would be disastrous in the face of
overwhelming Russian air superiority. This whole episode has exposed yet
again why NATO must be disbanded before it plunges the world into
disaster one crazed NATO member could easily drag the world into a
nuclear war. Especially as Washington insists on installing fanatical
anti-Russian governments throughout eastern Europe some with openly
fascist sympathies.
Thus despite the ceasefire the war will
continue. The SAA is on the offensive throughout the country. Once
Aleppo is liberated they will begin the offensive on Raqqah. They are
also preparing to liberate the ancient city of Palmyra once home to
Queen Zenobia during roman times. Although Turkey and Saudi Arabia have
not been allowed to invade they will continue to try to desperately
flood the country with weapons and terrorists. Meanwhile the Empire of
Chaos will continue to plot some new strategy to keep the war going.
However there is every reason to believe that these plans will end in
humiliating defeat. Thanks to the tremendous courage of the SAA,
Hezbollah, Iranians and the Iraqi Militias, and thanks to the timely
intervention of Russia the course of the war has irrevocably changed.
There is good reason to hope that the death squads will in the end be
forced to flee, surrender or die. Long Live Syria!
