Menagh air base is a great spot for a permanent Turkish Armed forces base in Northern Syria Getting Menagh along with Afrin is the crown jewel of this operation. If Turks can reopen the runway even better..

Or would it have? Perhaps the slow approach allowed Ypg to lose heavy casualties, lose morale, tunnels, bunkers, arms catches, cut supplies to the point that they are in heavy panic right now resulting in the collapse of their lines

You don't know Arabs well When an Arab is involved to a fight he will fight till the end. There is no time for negotiations or giving up regardless of the odds against you. Also Arab tribal customs specify that if you kill a member of a tribe you are in a debt to them. So If Assad wants to...

Well somebody has to recruit braindead right wing people too :D psy ops have always been part of war for thousands of years and it's not surprising that woman are being used in such a way. That being said I agree that it is morbid and one thing I like about Muslim armies is that we don't stoop...

lol exactly Those photo-op YPG girls are only attractive to those who have not yet lost their virginity IDF photo-op girls are like victorias secret in comparison btw big gains in the last 2 days. Front is opening up and it seems that YPG's casualties are taking it's toll on them and that...

TSK could push from south in Idlib region and then encircle Jinderes, trap YPG fighters in the progress and make the final push to Afrin go more smoothly.

Russia's interest is to prolong the conflict and create divisions in NATO yes they do seem to be better than America when it comes to Relations with Turkey but it's all interest. I have a feeling that the Russians are secretly improving the Iranian-YPG connection and allowing Iranian militias...

Turkey needs to add more of it's own troops to this operation. FSA guys won't be so motivated unless the majority of them are Arab locals from Afrin region btw any news on deployment of TSK commandos?

Turkey needs to put in more troops Also the push into Afrin should be multidimensional. How comes Turkish Armed forces are not pushing from the south? You can't be too over cautious in a war zone. You have to throw all your chips in at one point or another. Best to do it earlier before PKK/YPG...

Ok where can i find alternate version of livemap i hear they are being edited by pro ypg members

It's good that Bulbul has been taken. I think once Raju is taken panic will sink in and YPG/PKK lines to Afrin will fall rather rapidly. However one thing that concerns me with operation is lack of push from the East of Afrin. I think Turkish Armed forces need to start adding more troops in...

what author does not mention is that Daeesh had state of the art anti-tank systems like Kornet, Konkurs and even BGM TOW why they don't mention how many Syrian Arab Army tanks were taken out by them? Is T-90 not considered one of best Russian tanks anymore?

Serbia does the same thing They send Muslim diplomats to Arab countries and pretend to be friendly with them and Islam in general. Also whenever the Serbian President or lesbian prime minister (I'm not kidding about the lesbian part either lol!) go to mid east they bring their token Muslim...

In this case slower option is better option. I know I have been vocal in past of blitzkrieg style corridors in other sdf held areas but afrin has very diverse terrain. Its important to capture key villages, hilltops and vantage points before just driving to Afrin in 24 hours and then getting...

Is Iron dome even that successful of a system? Israel is very secretive about the performance of their military technology and if it does indeed work then it only seems to do well against a few flimsy built grad rockets I would rate Iron Dome if it intercepted a salvo of a dozen or more rockets...

IMO with this operation Turkey can gain the respect of all Muslim world just like Naser did with Egypt after the Suez crisis

Pakistan should buy weapons from Russia and China instead and look at joining SCO Imagine a military alliance between Russia, Turkey, Iran & China? Not only all countries would be connected by land but it would spell checkmate for the USA global hegemony.

It's sad to see this thread descend into mindless drivel about colonization Stay on topic guys Anyway, with regards to these protests and the many reports I have seen from media both in and outside of Iran + Twitter i am not really sure if they have the capacity to threaten the regime. I think...

Don't underestimate the power of Persian nationalism I believe Iran has had territorial claims on parts of Iraq since the 60s and Bahrain was once declared a province of Iran. A new Iranian Republic or restored Monarchy might not be quick to help Islamic causes or Assad but they will certainly...

Yeah but this is different Assad was supported by Russia, had large weapons caches and an officer class made up by loyalist Alawites with no qualms about shooting at innocent civilians. Then factor in Iranian and hezbollah volunteers who joined the Syrian goverment from the get go. Also I...
