Paphitis:
The USA has no intention of withdrawing from either Syria or Iraq.
Trump will pull out of Syria .... he is a business man. You don’t waste time, money and lives on something that has no pay back. The only thing that will keep the US there is the Zionist Lobby in the Senate. Any action in Syria is also illegal.
A case of wishful thinking on your part but the US is the world's superpoer and the Coalition has unfinished business to complete. In addition, the Coalition is defeating DAESH.
Defeating Daesh for how long now ...... what is it 4-5 years ..... and you are still far short of that goal!
Pootin is losing the war. Can't even defeat Free Syrian Army. Too bad and so sad!
Putin is quiet ......... so is a bear just before it strikes! A fleet off-shore, loads of cruise missiles, plenty of air craft; the Eastern Aleppo terrorists locked down and those to the West of the city will be in Paradise very shortly. All is going to plan I would think.
Pootin went all Rambo in a show of strength and fell on the pavement. Russia has lost control.
Boy are you deluded? Putin has not changed his tune since the day he arrived ...... Assad and Russia have freed 100’s of towns and villages. (
but I’ve told you all that already.)
And the Coalition has every legal right to be in Syria now because it has an illegitimate Criminal Government.
The UN recognises the Syrian representative from the elected Syrian government; all Syrian Ambassadors worldwide are those sent by the elected government; the UN recognises Assad as the elected President of Syria ..... it is only
YOU that appears not to! The fact
YOU do not recognise International Law does not mean it does not apply to
YOU Where are there. Our planes fly in Syria day and night and over Raqqa. And there is nothing Assad or Pootin can do about it but watch!!
They could of course shoot you down but Putin is quite happy to let you clear out IS from Raqqa, but I don’t think Raqqa is a priority for the coalition ..... they are concentrating on killing Daesh/civilians in Mosul.
The RAF from Akrotiri are playing a pivotal role in the Raqqa operations. It's wonderful.
It would surprise me if Raqqa were the target. Cameron’s defeat in Parliament over action in Syria still stands .... it is illegal. One day you will realise that International Law is just that ....... a Law that applies Internationally it is not an option.
The Voalition is in Cyprus and says HELLO everyday. You can hear them all the time. Isn't it nice knowing that Cyprus is playing such an important role in the Coalition's war effort.
No it’s annoying. My house shakes from the engine noise on take-offs from the base. Of course, as Hillary never made it to the White Houser, the chance of a face-to-face confrontation between Russia and the US coalition has now almost disappeared, but it always concerned me that Russia would degrade Akrotiri as a priority. That would be a bit too close for comfort.
BYW: I don’t think Cyprus has a say in what Akrotiri do ........ it is Sovereign Base Territory, like it or not, so it’s effectively part of the UK. If the unthinkable were to happen I am very sure that Cyprus would not allow British or any other countries combat aircraft to use either Larnaca or Paphos, except in an emergency and they would then be grounded.
