Breaking: ISIL kills top Iranian Commander - Brig General in Syria

[A.M.]

I expect a very strong reaction

More like nothing.

Iran and Russia are now stuck in Syria and Iraq. Obama will slowly pull the USA out and will watch both of them go down further and further.

. You died defending innocents of Syria.

On the flip side, He died defending Asad and his Alawite regime.

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

I hope you know the difference between a regular army officer, Major General and Brigadier General?

I'm sure you are more knowledgable about military ranks than a guy from a mil family with almost all immediate family serving ..

silly statement !!

bashar al-assad is the "regional secretary" of the "syrian regional branch" of the "arab socialist ba'ath party" and the syrian army is majority sunni as are the majority of the syrians who support him.

using a words like "alawite regime" puts your post in the boundary of "nato propagandist"... i am sure you don't want to be seen as one.

and before you cast aspersion on me, i am sunni ( thought don't care about such terminology ).

Even Pak has lost Generals in WoT.... Including one in FATA... Maj Gen Naizi Shaheed -- his vehicle (unfortunate incident) hit an IED.. When he was visiting troops on the front...

An army whose officers lead from the front is a good one... Even the causality ratio (PA) Officer : soldier is evident of the fact that our officers lead from the front!


On topic -- Innalilahey wainnaillihay rajeoon.. RIP to the brig gen

You do realize that this General's from the Iranian Mullah Brigade AKA Revolutionary Guards.

A Shia Mullah is no better than a Sunni one.

Unfortunate loss of life. I had much respect for Assad but I seriously am worried since he began killing his own people. The muslim nations should find a precarious balance in their foreign policies. Internally society should be free and externally talk harshly to the west and other problems we face. It is rare-no almost a non-possibility to find such a state-the ideal state.

I know Assad has support from some people but if he was honorable he would give up rule when the people rose up and avoided further bloodshed. He responded by killing his people. Such are the times though. The saudis are trying to prop up a dictator in yemen while Iranians are supporting a genocidal maniac in Syria.

I feel that each muslim country today has a foreign policy that is complete rubbish. Instead of uniting against the outside enemy we are fighting one we create ourselves-the internal ones. I hope the ghosts of the thousands death do not come to haunt us because we excel at one thing. Killing our own people-be it in the name of religion, sovereignity or kingship.

IRG is very much like a mini military .. with land,sea n naval branches... The third richest organisation in Iran (according to Google search)... It's like the elite Iraqi revolutionary guard... With its officers deputed from Iranian military ..

The gen died fighting Daesh .. Not sure if daesh represents Syrian ppl or Islam ... It does represent rabid wahabi ideology though.

The enemy of my enemy is not neccessarily my friend.

IRG opened fire on Pakistan Rangers a few days ago.

in this thing, my friend, i disagree with you.

bashar al-assad is a good man and he said in a interview in 2012 i think that the syrian army is fighting for the world... indeed, it is fighting for all the world's free-minded peoples.

I feel that each muslim country today has a foreign policy that is complete rubbish. Instead of uniting against the outside enemy we are fighting one we create ourselves-the internal ones.

true, and that is what gaddafi said too in 2008... watch towards the end of this vid ( Gaddafi speech:'America hanged Saddam and we might be next! (with English) - YouTube )... lot of his words have turned true.

because we excel at one thing. Killing our own people-be it in the name of religion, sovereignity or kingship.

and at the behest of the western imperalist powers... slavery this is !!

If what you said were true, innocent Syrian civilians would not have been dying. Asad's army may be mostly Sunni, but Syria is a classic example where minority rules over majority-------------It's a well grounded fact and no matter, how one tries to put a subjective spin on it-----The fact can't be denied.

 

[Sinnerman108]

Let me get this straight .

So the Russians where bombing the guys who are fighting ISIS & ISIS took over Alleppo & killed the highest glorious Iranian commander ?

what a thing

Oh I know a thing ... it is practiced in Iran.

 

[Genghis khan1]

Good News. Asad is a dictator and Iran is equally complicit in the unrest and bloodshed in muslim countries. Youtube has videos captured from Iranian Revolutionary Guards after they being either killed or captured in Syria.

 

[atatwolf]

He had no business being in Syria. It is sad but he had it coming.

Bashar in my eyes was a good person when he stood against George W Bush and his sanctions-though he lost his prestige the moment he began to kill his own people and create a country where some of the worst fighting is going on. I don't think their socialist credentials are enough for us to turn a blind eye to what these people have done. A socialist should be brought to power by the will of the people-not by slaughtering his citizens to maintain power.

Needless to say here we disagree. When the people want you out its time to go.

true, and that is what gaddafi said too in 2008... watch towards the end of this vid ( Gaddafi speech:'America hanged Saddam and we might be next! (with English) - YouTube )... lot of his words have turned true.

Gaddafi was better than Assad but the sad thing is that most leaders standing up to the west fail to understand the beauty of their nation and their own peoples diversity which is why an entire eastern town became a bastion for rebellion against Gaddafi. That is why when a voice is raised against these rulers they tend to eliminate it without sitting and talking. The objective should however be to win disparate and people with differing ideas over.

We can take Najibullah into question. In a book on the pashtuns Abu Bakr makes it clear the problem which exists even within socialist ranks. That brute force of those concerned rather than the will of the people brought them there.

Of course the free education, jobs for all are glamorous ideals of socialism but we need a socialist state that incorporates these ideals with the ideals of free speech, democracy and liberal thought. Such a state would be ideal in my eyes. There is much to learn from places like Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan, both poor in their ways but have universal education and other beneficial concepts.

and at the behest of the western imperalist powers... slavery this is !!

I would love if a power rose up and gave the west a bloody nose but how are we going to do that when so insidiously locked at each others throats. True we may claim that west has created rifts in our societies but then why not take the first step and avoid fighting our own people.

I have no problems with socialism. But I wouldn't like it imposed against the will of the people. The thing is-the people should want socialism, it should not be imposed.
