The constantly-changing make-up of the Russian group of forces in Syria has become a veritable kaleidoscope of the country’s contemporary military capabilities, which are evidently taking turns being tested, depending on the operational requirements, on their usefulness in the current reality of a multipolar world embroiled in a global hybrid war.

Jim W. Dean - The Syrian ceasefire and the intra-Jihadi fighting in Idlib have given the SAA time to clear some if its flank pressure, but Deir-Ezzor is at the end of the line, due to the logistics problems.

Jim W. Dean - This is quite a move by Turkey, which must have a lot of spare cash around to build a city for 80,000 so fast to move Syrian refugees back to. To announce something like this without consulting the host country - many would consider this a violation.

Jim W. Dean - As VT readers know we have been on pins and needles hoping that the Turks would not be so stupid to think they were going to fight their way through to Manbij, driving the Kurds out, when their main forces were fully engaged in trying to encircle Raqqa north of the Euphrates.

Gordon Duff - I hate writing this. I just finished explaining Kevin's piece on Korea and just finished talking with Jimmie. I am not allowed to mention who I talked with last night but the NSA can check their recordings.

Does General Adrian Bradshaw really want us all to believe that Russia is actually the aggressor while NATO has already placed thousands upon thousands of troops around Russian borders? Does he mean to tell us that NATO is not advancing its troops in major countries in Europe?

Jim W. Dean - ISIS now has 150 less combat vehicles returning to Deir Ezzor, to able to be used to harass the eastward push going on now. The sweetest revenge for having to take Palmyra back twice would be to chase the jihadis all the way back to Deir Ezzor.

If the US decides to decline the Turkish request to participate in the Raqqah offensive, it will lead to a Turkish-Kurdish escalation in Syria and will push the Pentagon to use its troops actively in operations on the ground.

Jim W. Dean - As the jihadis are losing their territorial bases, the planes and helicopters fly in to extract the terrorist leaders plus the Western and Gulf Intel headquarters staff and sometimes key lieutenants, to have staff to build and retrain new terror recruits. The rest are left as rear guard die-hards.

Assad - “If the Americans are genuine, of course they are welcome. Like any other country, we want to defeat and to fight the terrorists."

Jim W. Dean - The Jihadis cleared out of Qabasin and Bzaah to tighten their lines around al-Bab. This makes them more compact as bombing targets, but then there are always those human shields to use inside the city, a routine tactic for them.

Gabbard is smart enough to realize that the Neocon path leads to death, chaos, and destruction.
