The attack of “al-Nusra” in Northern Hama | Colonel Cassad
Judging by the nature of the events, the preparation of the insurgents’ attack was revealed in advance, which led to effective countermeasures, which led to the failure of the offensive in such a short time. A striking contrast with the March events in Northern Hama. By the evening of September 20, according to Syrian sources, the militants were driven out of those areas that they managed to occupy at the cost of large losses, and now the issue of the counteroffensive of the SAA towards Murak is on the agenda in order to take advantage of the consequences of the unsuccessful offensive by militants.

Trump goes full Bushtard at the UN
Despite some of his “America First” rhetoric – tossed in as red meat to his “base” – Trump revealed a global outlook that differed from the Bush-Obama neoconservative/liberal-interventionist approach in words only. In substance, Trump appears to be just the latest American poodle on Bibi Netanyahu’s leash.
Alexander Dugin: Settlement of the Karabakh conflict unprofitable for the globalist elite
In my opinion, the decision on the five regions gives us a partial solution to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. And the resolution of the Karabakh problem strengthens the positions of states, and not only Azerbaijan, Armenia and Russia, but also Turkey, creates a system for a balanced and balanced model of geopolitical stability and security in the South Caucasus, and accordingly, freedom of action for “chaos sellers” is reduced. That is, in fact, the model of geopolitical coexistence between Russia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Armenia and Iran is disadvantageous only to those who are not on this list. We, as neighbors, can not get anywhere from each other. And we will always live in the same space
Alexander Dugin: Aliyev made Azerbaijan sovereign
Azerbaijan during the reign of Ilham Aliyev became a full-fledged, strong, wealthy and established sovereign state. This is a rare case among the states of the post-Soviet space, since not all have managed to cope with the fact that they truly ensure the sovereignty and development of their own country.
Turkish troops on the border with Kurdistan | Colonel Cassad
Taking into account possible escalation in Iraq at the end of September, this military activity looks like a pre-preperation “just in case”, though perhaps the Turkish General staff has a more serious agreement with the Iranian military on the subject of action to prevent the dismemberment of Iraq. The official explanation from the Turkish military emphasized that the military exercises are aimed at practicing cooperation in fighting terrorism. As DAESH is long gone from the area, it is quite clear who the Turks mean.

Work continues on the transfer of Turkish armored vehicles to the Turkish-Syrian border, where Turkey shares a border with Idlib.

The Russian defense Ministry has responded to claims by the United States | Colonel Cassad
Russian combat aircraft in Syria launched surgical strikes, the U.S. was informed in advance about the limits of military operations in the city of Deir ez-Zor, said on Sunday the official representative of the defense Ministry major-General Igor Konashenkov.
Race for Syrian oil | Colonel Cassad
A visual map illustrating one of the reasons for the race in the province of Deir ez-Zor. Major deposits of oil are still on the territory controlled by the Caliphate and it is the desire to control it that is behind the increased competition between the SAA and the SDF, although of course this problem is not exhausted.
The Crossing | Colonel Cassad
The Russian foreign Ministry said that the SAA was able to cross the Euphrates near Deir ez-Zor, the true place of crossing was not specified. Also, it is claimed that the Northern Bank of the Euphrates created a springboard.
The ideology of the new paradigm | Mark Sedgwick
In 1999, I thought that Dugin was exaggerating, but now it looks increasingly as if he was right. Guénon, like Marx, was more interested in meta-analysis than in day-to-day politics. Marx surveyed human history in the long run, looking at it in terms of economics, and focusing on the ownership of the means of production. He saw the struggle between labour and capital as the key dynamic of his own time.
Unlawful presence | Colonel Cassad
SDF operations to the North of Deir-ez-Zor demonstrate that the Kurds are for the United States is the main bet in the ongoing war. While there is the factor of ISIS, the United States remains able under this pretext to support the Kurds, at least until the moment when finally taken Raqqa (probably by the end of autumn, plus or minus a month) and the liberated territory to the North of the Euphrates.
The airport of Deir ez-Zor has been Liberated | Colonel Cassad
The breakthrough of the blockade and the resumption of full operation of the aerodrome in the medium term, gives the SAA additional opportunities for operations in Eastern Syria, as an opportunity to fully air supply through the airbase of Deir ez-Zor, may accelerate the deployment of reinforcements for the development of operations for the full liberation of the city and subsequent operations against Madina and Abu Kemal.
The Russian General staff on the liberation of Deir ez-Zor | Colonel Cassad
The Russian General staff about the operation of unblocking Deir ez-Zor. It is worth noting that the operation was designed jointly by Russian and Syrian military. However, the high pace of operations in Eastern and Central Syria and more educated punches (compared to the campaigns of 2014-2015) to bypass and encircle the enemy, has long pointed to the fact that the specialists of the General staff are firmly are assisting the Syrian military. Hence increased speed of operations and reducing the effectiveness of enemy countermeasures.
Patrick Cockburn on al-Qaeda’s resurgence in Syria | PODCAST
Al-Qaeda is creating its most powerful stronghold ever in north-west Syria at a time when world attention is almost entirely focused on the impending defeat of Isis in the east of the country. It has established full control of Idlib province and of a vital Syrian-Turkish border crossing since July. “Idlib Province is the largest al-Qaeda safe haven since 9/11,” says Brett McGurk, the senior US envoy to the international coalition fighting Isis.
