Syrian war explained

[blackfeather]

Found this on jsmineset I have to post it..


Here is an explanation of the Syrian war.



Dear Jim,



Remembering that the so called rebels (mostly foreigners from jihadist Arab countries and the caucus were financed and armed to the teeth by Saudi Arabia and powers that be,( have brought mayhem and utter chaos throughout the faith) here is the summary of the convoluted state of affairs:



A highly restricted briefing paper on Syria:



President Assad (who is bad) is a nasty guy who got so nasty his people rebelled and the Rebels (who are good) started winning (Hurrah!). But then some of the rebels turned a bit nasty and are now called Islamic State (who are definitely bad!) and some continued to support democracy (who are still good).



So the Americans (who are good) started bombing Islamic State (who are bad) and giving arms to the Syrian Rebels (who are good) so they could fight Assad (who is still bad) which was good.



By the way, there is a breakaway state in the north run by the Kurds who want to fight IS (which is a good thing ) but the Turkish authorities think they are bad, so we have to say they are bad whilst secretly thinking they’re good and giving them guns to fight IS (which is good) but that is another matter.



Getting back to Syria.



So President Putin (who is bad, ‘cos he invaded Crimea and the Ukraine and killed lots of folks (including that nice Russian man in London with polonium poisoned sushi) has decided to back Assad (who is still bad) by attacking IS (who are also bad) which is sort of a good thing? But Putin (still bad) thinks the Syrian Rebels (who are good) are also bad, and so he bombs them too, much to the annoyance of the Americans (who are good) who are busy backing and arming the rebels (who are also good).



Now Iran (who used to be bad, but now they have agreed not to build any nuclear weapons and bomb Israel, are now good ) are going to provide ground troops to support Assad (still bad) as are the Russians (bad) who now have ground troops and aircraft in Syria.



So a Coalition of Assad (still bad), Putin (extra bad) and the Iranians (good, but in a bad sort of way) are going to attack IS (who are bad) which is a good thing, but also the Syrian Rebels (who are good) which is bad.



Now the British (obviously good, except that nice Mr Corbyn in the corduroy jacket, who is probably bad and the Americans (also good) cannot attack Assad (still bad) for fear of upsetting Putin (bad) and Iran (good/bad) and now they have to accept that Assad might not be that bad after all compared to IS (who are super bad).



So Assad (bad) is now probably good, being better than IS (but let’s face it, drinking your own wee is better than IS so no real choice there) and since Putin and Iran are also fighting IS that may now make them Good. America (still Good) will find it hard to arm a group of rebels being attacked by the Russians for fear of upsetting Mr Putin (now good) and that nice man Ayatollah in Iran (also Good) and so they may be forced to say that the Rebels are now Bad, or at the very least abandon them to their fate. This will lead most of them to flee to Turkey and on to Europe or join IS (still the only constantly bad group).



To Sunni Muslims, an attack by Shia Muslims (Assad and Iran) backed by Russians will be seen as something of a Holy War, and the ranks of IS will now be seen by the Sunnis as the only Jihadis fighting in the Holy War and hence many Muslims will now see IS as Good (Doh!).



Sunni Muslims will also see the lack of action by Britain and America in support of their Sunni rebel brothers as something of a betrayal (mmm…might have a point…) and hence we will be seen as Bad.



So now we have America (now bad) and Britain (also bad) providing limited support to Sunni Rebels (bad) many of whom are looking to IS (Good/bad) for support against Assad (now good) who, along with Iran (also Good) and Putin (also, now, unbelievably, Good) are attempting to retake the country Assad used to run before all this started?



I hope that clears things up for you.



All the best,

CIGA Riyaz ( probably good but do not jump to judgment just yet)

Wow that was complicated!!!!!

[blackfeather]

Still more complicated. Turkey is the ally of the United States, which is good, was found to be buying IS oil (who is bad) which helped fund their war, making Turkey bad. Then for some unexplainable reason Turkey who is now bad, shot down one of Putin's ( who is still unbelievably good) planes, which may or may not have been in Turkish air space for 17 seconds, making Turkey Unbelievably bad. The US (who is now good/bad) supports Turkey which also makes the US look unbelievably bad. Turkey a Nato nation had the support of other European Nato nations (who are good), but now since Turkey is unbelievably bad the other European Nato nations have withdrawn support for Turkey and advocate the destruction of IS which makes these nations very good. But the Sunni Muslims see this as bad. They threaten even more terror campaigns against these nations which is bad, or good if your a Sunni Muslim.

If we wait a few more weeks we can add to this never ending story...

That is wickedly funny. And succinctly points out the foolishness of assigning roles for others based on standards the others do not hold. In other words the direct application of the division of the world by Obama into victims and victimizers.

You just can't argue with facts like that. Although the explanation finally came round to the proper assignment of good/bad, it didn't give a plan of action. Maybe it's just my experiences in Viet Nam coloring my way of thinking, but we faced the same good/bad conundrum there. The solution was quite simple, but probably not politically correct even by that day's standards. It had to do with letting God sort them out.

The WHOLE premise of who is good-vs-bad, begins to fall apart,

               when you stop and realize one simple truth:


     O B A M A   I S   B A D
                      And that's NOT GOOD -
                              no matter how you slice it.

I like the whole "let God sort em out", as long as they don't come here.

Aint that a comical storyline...

The war in Syria and the historical basis. It's all about the Saudis.

So Assad is not a nice guy.
From what we know, the Syrians are way better educated than their religious compatriots from other Muslim countries.
He is a member of a minority.
As long as you towed the line, everybody in the country was fine, especially Christians.

What makes him so bad is the fact he is an Alawite and the majority Sunnites hate their guts. They are worse than infidels, according to them. They have sworn to drive all Christians out of Syria, but kill all the Alawites. 
The inside workings of the different Muslim orientations are just unfathomable.  Insane is a word that comes to mind.
