Heavy explosions rock Damascus

[John2]

13. It is the first time

that I have read this by this source. I agree with the opinions. If I was a military analyst, I would say the War is not going very well for a certain side as expected. I don't agree with president Obama's Policies in the Middle East. He is doubling down on neocon Policies. He has fallen into their delusional ideas of nation building.

He probably thought that the Syrian regime would be isolated. They are not just fighting Assad, but Hezbullah,Iran and Iraqi Shiites allied with Iran. Assad's people are the Alawites, and they have formed behind him.

Lets break it down even further. The Alawites represent the elite core of the professional Syrian military. Hezbullah's military wing is very well trained and no pushover, specifically in their confrontations with the IDF in lebanon. Even though the U.S. and Israel consider them terrorists, they have the overwhelming support of Shiites in Lebanon and part of Lebanon's Government. They do not see them as Terrorists but freedom fighters against Israel. It is the problem tunnel vision gives you. They have training on military tactics from professional military sources of Syria,Iran and secretly North Korea. They are professional fighters. They have also been sharing that training recently, with shiite militias operating in Iraq, thanks to the courtesy of getting rid of Saddam by the U.S. Then you have another profession military force operating in Syria from Iran called the Revolutionary Guard. All these groups are professional fighters and very well armed, with sophisticated weapons.

While on the other side, you have a rag tail group put together by the U.S. You have a few deserters from the Syrian Army, who was probably not loyal from the start. You have some civilians and Foreign fighters that are not that very well equipped. Most of them are extremists, with ideas of forming some religious theocratic state based on Sharia Law. You also have a Kurdish minority dreaming about their own state and Kurdish unity. They serve the interests of Turkey because of the minority in that country. They are not the militaries of those Arab dictators supporting the U.S. Those are the elite and professional; soldiers of those country, who are responsible to their rulers' securities only. Countries like Saudi Arabia,Jordan and Qatar. They want shed one drop of blood defending Israel. This is the mess you get into listening to that idiot rightwing Congress and their Wall Street puppets in Congress, instead of working for the people of the country. The people who really made you President. It is still not too late to change course.
