I said something similar once while browsing the d&d Venezuela thread and he materialized. Things made a lot more sense after that. A more polished version of the reddit mean-wells, except instead of dudes that looked similar to the Boston bombers getting harassed, entire nations are.

is there any scenario under which russia steps aside and lets turk have a bang at removing the syrian government? cos ultimately that's what erdogan wants isn't it and the rooskies had to have known that when they were cutting deals with them.

why would they abandon syria now?

The Navy tried to let people know there is such a thing as too much war crimes and proposed to demote this guy for a couple months, but that was too much for Trump. Then they proposed taking away one piece of his flare, so Trump stepped in and took away flare from the prosecutors. Man, imagine feeling that the loss of a pin essentially ends your life.

There is another one not linked with the 30 foot jets of fire screaming out of the crew compartment.

One of the ones zooms in and cuts out an infantry squad nearby. Maybe some of these are not contemporaneous or real.

There have been ongoing anti-piracy operations off the horn of africa by an international coalition. Japanese Navy even participates. There's a base for it in Djibouti, even.

Pretty good interview from Herb Maté where he interviews a former us ambassador to syria. Does get a bit contentious, but they both handle it well for the most part. Good to see an interviewer ask questions and subject be knowledgeable of the interviewers views and push back. To some extent we see what the ambassador tells himself, so he can do his job; also we see some points that might make us have a second thought.

proving you're not CIA by starting a massive undercover investigation into someone who thinks you are

right

also the casually bringing up the idea that the white helmets worked with extremists, but suggesting there is no evidence to support this (please don't look into it yourself), and strawmanning the Douma poo poo by bringing up an idea that there were people executed in an off-site gas chamber and then moved on-site (??? has anyone seriously suggested this, instead of the OPCW dissenters)
