okay the FSA is green in this picture

it's slightly outdated

Not exactly but close enough.

Yep, you see the yellow in the western part of syria? That's where the YPG USED to be be.

actually you can see that afrin is FSA controlled on the map

If rumors are to be believe as well, then assad is preparing to mobilize and conquer the kurds, if he did begin such a thing then it is likely that uprisings would occur all over kurdistan, especially for the SAA, and maybe a little for ISIS, though that is doubtable.

Yep.

I mean assad still has to deal with the latest round of US involvement

If I am correct there was a violent riot against the SDF in al-raqqah.

The US have become pushovers, turkey proved that, after they pleaded with turkey not to invade parts of iraq and west syria, and they did exactly that.

it was a bombing actually

someone planted an IED on a motorcycle

A bombing in a desolate place against a negligible target won't fix anything.

Oh I thought you meant that the US bombed syria again.

Yep, that's common in al-raqqah now, even after ISIS fell.

well I do but I was referring to the riot

yeah the USA is attacking assad right now

That is giving the US too much credit.

They don't want to start a war, so they bomb negligible targets.

The US fear russia most of all.

that didn't seem to stop the airstrikes in april

I wonder what nation would have bombed troops.

If it isn't the US that attacks syria, it is either turkey or israel.

well there's a CNN article here that says that israel did it
but that's "fake news"

Saudi arabia is too busy with getting their asses kicked in yemen to put resources in syria.

*It was the indians*

I hear rumors that china is going to get more involved on the side of syria, but I don't bet on that happening anytime soon.

China has a really shitty military so it woulden't surprise me if they send the bare minimum and do it for show.
