WWE Rumble in Turkey's Parliament.
The Syria conflict thread
- Thread starter Samseau
- Start date
I've been seeing videos of parliments in east Asia, south Asia, the middle east erupting into brawls for years. Usually it'd be on the Daily Show or some shit like that and we were supposed to laugh at them. Seems preferable to the asshole sandwich we've got of two parties politely disagreeing on process and points of order but working in unison to fuck the world. Seems to me a lot of members of congress (for starts) could use a good punch in the face.
Don't forget Libya and the coming showdown with Egypt/UAE

I think the brawling is great, if your not willing to punch someone in the face over the future of where your country is going then you have no business being in politics.
Erdogan's mistake is to be on too many fronts.
Regarding Karabagh , I am curious to know which side is helping Armenia. I know that USA was involved , but the russian-armenian relations (a bit like russian-georgian) relations are a bit of a rollercoaster.
Azerbaijan will mostly be helped by Turkey.
Russia is technically selling weapons to both , but i am not sure.

Big if true.
Our tax dollars at work. Putting our good men at risk all to protect Al Qaeda and ISIS. Meanwhile, our border is unprotected and our cities are being burned and looted to the ground.
Once the election side show is done in the USA, it will be back to business in the Middle East.

A brilliant backgrounder on why we're in Syria...
Can't make this shit up
Happened a couple of days ago. Major development yet it went totally below the radar
Saudi minister of state foreign affairs hinting at the Saudis acquiring nuclear weapons (if Iran does so)
They already have the agreement with Pakistan

Saudi minister says nuclear armament against Iran ‘an option’
Riyadh reserves the right to arm itself with nuclear weapons if Tehran cannot be stopped from making one, minister says.
The Syrian National Army (fancy name for a band of bandits/jihadists that follow Turkey's orders) have started an attack on Ain Issa. Their goal is to cut the M4 highway and take over the city+ countryside
The territory is held by the YPG. No word from the Turkish MoD so far.
After the Turkish attacks in 2019 Russia moved into the area to do joint patrols with the YPG and SAA. It's likely that there has been some negotiating behind the scene and Russia will let Turkey grab this city in return for some favours elsewhere

I'm really interested to see if there is a real attempt to get back into Syria under Biden, or if they will basically just up the support to proxy terrorists to destabalize the area.
In order for that to happen within just one day, those troops must have been staged there in advance... In violation of Trump's orders.
I'm starting to think even the Insurrection Act wouldn't have helped.
