I like how they use the term "relocate" instead of "evacuate."

What's so interesting about this map is that for the last 3 years or so, we were told that these same friendly "Syrian rebels" were taking down Assad and should be given support, now that they are crossing border into Iraq are they still friendly ......

I'm confused ........


Also, I don't know if this was posted, but http://www.newsweek.com/syrias-assad-grants-amnesty-prisoners-after-winning-election-253944

^^^^ Wonder how Assad winning the election last week and releasing fighters/rebels that were imprisoned play into all this .......................

Not exactly.

It seems like the offensive was halted somewhat yesterday.

Shi'ites are flocking to defend the capitol, but this is far from over.

Al-Arabiya is reporting that the Syrian gov't struck at ISIS basis in Syria as part of a coordinated strike w/Iraqi gov't

No clue how Iraq can solicit help from both secular Syria and fundamentalist Iran

So the Syrian government (which the US is working to overthrow) is now cooperating with the Iraqi government (which the US installed) to fight the Jihadist terrorists/"rebels" (which the US opposes in Iraq but supports in Syria)???

Meanwhile, Iran (which the US opposes) has offered to help Iraq (its former arch-enemy) AND the US (its current enemy) and Syria (its ally) in suppressing the the Jihadists (which the US opposes in Iraq but supports in Syria)???

And where does Israel, (who hates Iran, hates Syria, hates Iraq and hates Jihadists) stand in all of this???
