    My exact thought. There's saying that a fool gets beaten even in the church. Of course MANPADs could be useless to shoot down some drones if they high enough and also they present little target.

    Also Europe going down the toilet due to European islamists is not a problem for Russia. It's an opportunity. With islamism comes financial collapse. With financial collapse come societal collapse.

    dribble, utter dribble. Can you even attempt to quantify the above? You really do post some rubbish.

    There will be no repeat of UN sanctions against Iran like the past fake nuclear scare. Russia and China will NOT allow it as Iran will be an integral part of OBOR and the upcoming Eurasian integration plans, and neither have any interest in enabling any Yankistani plots in the region. I doubt even the Eurotrash will support any absurd Trumpian Iran schemes as they are fully aware that the nuclear scare was a fake, and that there are simply no grounds for any international sanctions.

    Sanctions on Wahabbi terror-sponsoring Saudi Arabia would make sense, but of course this will never happen....

    "The competition for the Syrian-Iraqi border and for the oil-reach Deir Ezzor province has officially started." Just like with Berlin during WW2, this explains why there reports of regular Russian troops in Syria because there were regular US troops in Syria as well.

    "FREE SYRIAN ARMY LAUNCHES COUNTERATTACK AGAINST GOVERNMENT FORCES IN SUWEIDA COUNTRYSIDE."

    Russia, SAA and allies can go after them now, if there are NATO forces with, get out of the way or die.

    Looks like another big territory gain as Tiger forces can't let the southern SAA get ahead in the territory gain publicity war! Think this could be called flank protection.

    MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Troops loyal to the Syrian government shot down a drone overnight suspected of killing three soldiers on Friday in southwestern Syria, according to the reports.

    The armed drone was struck down by anti-aircraft units of the Syrian ground forces operating in the Quneitra province, the Al-Masdar newspaper said.

    According to the outlet, Syrian troops were attacked in the area between the towns of Al Hamidiyah and Abu Shabta as they made in-roads into territories held by militant forces.

    As I expected the nearly empty desert east was a soft target for the SAA. The question now is how badly are they overextended to
    support their gains. Expect the jihadi vermin in Idlib and oher more populated pockets to try and grab the initiative. Somehow I think
    this was Uncle Scumbag's plan and he will have his minions organize another chemical "atrocity" to rally all the western saps who need
    cattle prodding to act.

    Idlibistan is quiet because of Turkey not USA so I'd say Russia has them by the short ones since they went ahead with this in the first place​

    As for chemical party I don't think it will work this soon after Manchester, empathy is not up to specs

    MANPADs are not ideal solution for UAVs especially strike drones which often have very low IR signature and fly on decent altitudes.

    Looks like the US really doesn't want to give up the Syrian side of the border. How dare the Syrian Government deploy its troops on its own land. Don't they know who the US is?

    The US military and Israel wants to completely partition Syria and turn it into
    another Palestine. So later they can slowly do what Israel did to Palestinians little
    by little take them their entire territory. Probably TRump is not interested in Syria
    partition but in the end he does not have full control over its own Government ,
    CIA and military. Turkey in the other hand seems will be happy with just holding Northern
    Syria and stop US arming kurds.

    When it comes to Syria army progress.
    Is too early to celebrate anything. They are spread too much and any major offensive
    by NATO or Israel could reverse their gains in small time. So this conflict in Syria could
    last a decade if not more. War will not end with the territorial advance of Syrian army.
    But only when Turkey ,Jordan SAudi Arabia stop arming jihadist ./terrorist to fight Syria army.
    Israel will never stop its aggression in the south but in their flank is more difficult to hold territory for jihadist..

    It will very interesting to see how Russia, the SAA and Allies respond to this. The stakes have been raised, I think the SAA with the support of Russian Speical Forces and the VKS should just push forward, what do you all think?

    You are right about everything in your post Vann. The only stop these countries from supporting terrorism, is to always have a hand on their throat, support Hezbollah against Israel, support the Houthis against the Saudis and support the PKK against Turkey. This is the only to stop these countries.
