It honestly looks like it missed him. He's probably deaf and maybe the secondary fragments got him, but it looks like it hit the berm outside his direct line-of-sight.

It's a shame no one was baking. When I checked the previous thread it was already page 10.
Syrian General Hassan Ahmed Hassan said the fact that Syrian refugees are returning to their homes shows “that the government doesn’t take revenge on those who return,” speaking via video link to Russia's Ministry of Defence in Moscow on Wednesday.
“Return of residents to areas liberated from terrorists by the Syrian army […] is conclusive evidence that the government doesn’t take revenge on those who return and works for providing people with food, water, places for treatment, and settlement, conditions for normal life,” the general said.
Chief of the Russian Centre for Reconciliation of the Opposing Parties in Syria, Alexei Tsygankov, for his part said that nearly 3,000 refugees have returned to Syria via the two checkpoints created on the Jordanian and Lebanese borders.
Tsygankov added that a third checkpoint on the border region was opened on Wednesday morning.

Probably the UK or Netherlands. Maybe they'll get resettled in Qatar or UAE until they're needed for another mission against any other MENA country that doesn't want to sell its oil in USD any more.

>Assad must go Unironically this. If at least some of the Middle East countries is going to be at least dictatorship-lite regimes, they need people like George Washington. Do your service and leave the position. So Assad must go.
A Thursday morning suicide car bomb attack in Kabul that targeted an Afghan intelligence service convoy has injured three people and damaged two vehicles, local law enforcement said. The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the bombing and said it managed to kill several intelligence officers. TOLO news reported that the blast killed some of the 10 people affected. rt.com/newsline/434282-afghanistan-suicide-bombing-convoy/

US to bolster its Marines presence in Australia to tackle ‘China threat’ The US continues to ramp up its military footprint in Australia, aimed at countering a perceived threat presented from China. With plans to station 2,500 Marines in Darwin, US military presence in the Pacific continues to expand.
Marine Corps presence in Australia has ballooned since the first rotation of 250 troops arrived in the country in 2012. There are currently 1,500 members of the Marine Rotational Force-Darwin stationed in Australia’s Northern Territory along with an array of US weapons and aircraft. That number is to swell to 2,500 “as soon as practicable,” the Department of Defense said following a meeting between the US and Australia this week.
what exactly is the idea here? to be able to prevent trade in case they want to use that threat?

Australia has been an American client state for a while. Most obviously when we forced their Governor-General to sack their PM. The force is likely to reassure the Aussies not to shitpost for China instead as American power wanes.

Isaiah Fisher
Is there something similar to this showing American power projection, US bases and probable conflict plans i.e. 7 days to the Rhine or Operation unthinkable?
I have a feeling that in the event of a non-nuclear confrontation against the Chinese, the Australians and the USMC stationed in Darwin are to act as Rear defence against the Indonesians while the bases in Soko and Japan act as forward staging.
Oliver Hughes
They creeped in from the general direction of Tanf and slipped through SAA lines.
I know. We had a CIA officer working in Australia who blew the whistle on how the US was spying on ordinary Australians. When Aussies didn't give a shit he tried selling shit to the USSR. So we sent his ass to prison, but a fangirl got him paroled a few years back.
Dozens killed in Pakistan suicide bombing as election day marred by violence A suicide bomber has killed at least 31 people and wounded many more at a polling station in the Pakistani city of Quetta, rounding off a campaign season stained by indiscriminate violence. As voters crowded the polling station in the National Assembly elections, the bomber blew himself up, killing at least 31 people and wounding at least 35. At least one child was among the dead. Radical Islamic terrorist group Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) claimed responsibility for the deadly blast, according to the group’s propaganda outlet, the Amaq News Agency.
In addition to the bombing in Quetta, polling across the country opened to violence. One person was killed in a grenade attack in Khuzdar, Balochistan province, and another in a shooting between rival politicians in Swabi, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Violent clashes were also reported in at least four other towns and cities across the country. rt.com/news/434266-pakistan-election-suicide-bomb/

Empires today don't have colonies like empires of old. Client states fill the gap, but a good client state is somewhat deniable. Here is a good map of bases from 2011.
I'm certain they suck, but that's the best interview on him. No one in the US gave a shit after the 1980s.

wont work till tribalism dies, that will happen eventually but it will take time. When they have developed into the kind of society that will elevate a George Washington type character they will have it, till then a strong leader is needed to keep it all together, theres a reason Syria had so many coups before Hafez, its a tough country to run.
