Have you not been paying attention throughout this whole thread?
To cut and paste one of my entire previous posts...
From the UN, Airstrikes on civilians, civilian infrastructure, fuel and food lines and fucking refugee camps.:
Quote:
Civilian Infrastructure Hit and Humanitarian Aid Workers Killed in Northwestern Governorates
GoS and allied forces airstrikes reportedly impacted civilian infrastructure in northwestern governorates in Syria from 02 to 22 December. Most recently on 20 December, six airstrikes hit a public market in Idleb City killing more than 50 people and wounding approximately 150 people most of whom were evacuated to Turkey for treatment.
One NGO staff member and two civil defense workers were among those killed while a number of NGO staff were wounded in this attack prompting safety concerns for humanitarian staff working in Idleb City. The airstrikes also destroyed a school, a court building, and a collective shelter housing newly displaced IDPs.
Airstrikes hit a fuel market in Ma’aret al-Nassan in Idleb governorate frequented by civilians on 15 December, killing approximately 16 people and wounding over 50 people. Fuel prices have risen dramatically over the last month in areas held by Non-State Armed Groups (NSAGs) due to repeated attacks on fuel supply lines and infrastructure and the subsequent shortage of fuel. According to local sources, as of 21 December the price of diesel has risen from 250 Syrian Pounds to 375 Syrian Pounds in Idleb governorate since late November.
One NGO staff was killed by artillery fire in Khan al-Shaykhoun and a NGO supported hospital was partially damaged in Taftanaz due to a missile hitting in close proximity to the hospital on 13 December. This resulted in the main generator catching fire and causing subsequent damage. In another airstrike on 11 December, one bread distribution point was hit killing six civilians and wounding at least ten others. According to the Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) cluster, 2,538 individuals were displaced between 17 November and 18 December bringing the number of IDPs displaced from and within Idleb to 206,254 people as of 18 December.
In Lattakia, GoS and allied forces continued their airstrikes in Turkmen and Akrad mountains in northern Lattakia, an area with the presence of 14 NGO supported IDP settlements hosting 12,882 IDPs. Due to ongoing airstrikes and ground clashes between GoS and allied forces and NSAGs 11,245 people were displaced from 17 November to 18 December in Lattakia according to the CCCM cluster. Approximately 4,000 families living in IDP camps and settlements along the M4 highway near the Turkish border area of Yamadiya are living in close proximity to active frontlines. Protection fears for IDPs in these camps were raised considerably on 09 December after airstrikes and surface-to-surface missiles hit Obein IDP (refugee - KPO) camp in Lattakia, killing seven civilians and wounding many others.
In the southern countryside of Aleppo governorate, airstrikes hit two field hospitals in Khan al-Touman and Zarbah killing five people and wounding an unverified number of people on 09 December and 22 December, respectively.
A medical warehouse containing life-saving aid and medical items was severely damaged in Kafer Hamra town in Haritan sub-district of Aleppo on 07 December, after being hit by airstrikes that killed a number of civilians and wounded one NGO staff. The capacity of health infrastructure and the ability of health NGOs to respond to medical needs in the area have severely deteriorated.

We all know SIG and 1KIKI are Russian stooges, and I've heard the term painfully obvious, but this is ridiculous.

the weapons that Russia is using in Syria, I doubt that they have to resort to barrel bombs. Maybe you should educate yourself,
Maybe you should educate yourself on the use of grammar, since I never said Russia was using barrel bombs.
Quote:
Oh, you mean war crimes like "shock and awe"
I would say educate yourself on "war crimes" and military doctrine while you're at it, but the more you read the dumber you get, so maybe don't bother.
Quote:
I see that Russia committed the war crime of proposing a ceasefire and humanitarian aid - even tho they're winning.
I see Signy has made the mistake of believing the Russian government again.

FSA and other rebel groups say they won't lay down their weapons until Russia stops its bombing campaign on their cities:

Quote:OF COURSE they are, you nit. Russians have never claimed they were only fighting ISIL. It was their stated intention all along - right from the very beginning- to support Assad. They also said: Not all terrorists carry a black flag.

But I see that you keep making the mistake in thinking that the "rebels" are some sort of universally holy pro-democracy force. The reality is that there are SOME that tried to fight a two-front war- against both government forces and ISIL, but they're few and far between, and many of the various rebel factions have openly allied themselves with various foreign terrorist organizations.
Quote:Then the FSA can be bombed with their ISIL/ ahrar ash Sham/ al nusra / al Qaida allies. Not all of the rebels have allied themselves with terrorists, but when you ally yourself with terrorists ...

Hey 'G'string.
This: "BAD RUSSIA! Only RUSSIA seems to be doing anything bad! That must mean ISIS is GREAT!" Is NOT a defense of Russia. Where did I excuse/ defend Russia?
I was merely ironically pointing out how one-sided you are. You KNOW what being one-sided means, right?
Pssst ... it means you're a hypocrite and idiot.

KPO, G, and THUGR,
MAYBE you need an education about the current state of the FSA. Would you accept Wikipedia as a neutral source of info?
According to WIKI, the beginnings of the FSA were defectors from the Syrian Army who refused to fire on protesters in 2011. Fast forward to today ...
Quote:So, there are jihadist groups in northern Syria= groups that I assume you would say are legitimate targets of the Syrian Army and Russian air campaign.
Between July 2012 and July 2013, ill-discipline and infighting weakened the FSA.
Meanwhile, jihadist groups entered northern Syria and became more effective than FSA.
Quote:Not quite a majority
... On 7 December 2012, about 260 to 550 commanders
Quote:In other words, the meeting was held in Turkey, which is so invested in deposing Assad that they are THE major suppliers to ISIL, and attended by other FOREIGN POWERS whose goal was also to depose Assad. i.e. They became pawns in a proxy war.
and representatives of the Syrian armed opposition met in Antalya [TURKEY] and elected a new 30-person military council for the FSA. ... Brigadier General Salim Idris, ... was elected as the new Chief of Staff of the FSA and effective leader.
Security officials from the United States, United Kingdom, France, the Gulf Cooperation Council and Jordan were present at the meeting
Quote:
About two-thirds of those elected to the new command were individuals associated with the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria
The Muslim Brotherhood is a Qatari-funded group of sectarian Sunnis who believe in Sunni Sharia law.
Quote:
Thomson Reuters stated that the new Chief of Staff Gen. Salim Idris "is not ideological", while two of his new deputy commanders, Abdelbasset Tawil from Idlib Governorate and Abdelqader Saleh from Aleppo Governorate are Islamist.
FSA brigades in northern Syria supported the Army of Conquest-led [anti-government, pro-Nusra] offensive that took control of almost all of Idlib governorate, as well as aided the YPG in their approach from the east and west against ISIL-controlled Tell Abyad. According to journalist Thomas Joscelyn, FSA troops backed al-Nusra and other jihadi forces in their successful capture of Jisr Al Shughur in northwestern Syria's Idlib province.
The entry also mentions that FSA members have defected to ISIL.
So the FSA is a hodge-podge of sub-groups whose only unifying motive is to depose Assad. Some of the FSA is pro-democracy, but much of the FSA live on the spectrum from being pro-Sunni Islamists who seek to implement Sharia law (after Assad is deposed), to being out and-out pro-terror Takfiris.

Because you SIG and 1KIKI are always posting with malice about the West, I point out to all who visit theses threads that you two are nothing more than Russian trolls. The harder you try not to come off that way the guiltier you look. It is one defense of Russia after another and never a rebuke of any kind.
I've said it before and I'll say it again; eat shit comrades. I am an American who believes the sooner the Russian economy crashes beyond repair because of Russia's behavior in Georgia, the Ukraine and Syria the better.

Turkey Shells Aleppo, Says "Massive Escalation" In Syria Imminent As Saudis Ready Airstrikes
Quote:
Even as all sides - including the US, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and select rebel groups - pretend to be working towards a ceasefire and a diplomatic solution to the five year conflict in Syria, actions speak louder than words, and to put it as succinctly as possible, everyone is still fighting.

Preserved for the future. Quote in which THUGGER FREELY! admits he's so stupid he doesn't care WHO wins - even if it's the Nazis in Ukraine or ISIS in Syria - they're A-OK! As long as Russia loses.
I already figured out a loooong time ago that's what you think, idiot. Why else do you think I've been pointing and laughing at you all this time?

I wonder, if the Turks/ Saudis/ Qataris/ USA CIA prevail and Syria turns into a(nother) Afghanistan/ Iraq/ Libya/ Yemen, would G, KPO, and THUGR have the intellect and -more importantly- the ethical fortitude to look back and ask themselves What have we done?
