Thanks for baking!
>he's just here because all us troops from syria are going in iraq Aye but why would he bother to come all the way from America in a surprise visit like that even with the US soldiers going to Iraq... Maybe it's got to do with Iran or Turkey

>Aye but why would he bother to come all the way from America in a surprise visit like that even with the US soldiers going to Iraq my guess is to "thank the troops for their service and victory against (((isis)))" so he gets more popularity

Ruptly youtube.com/watch?v=k9xwU177kf8 An official from the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) administration in Ayn Issa in the north of Syria's Raqqa governorate, commented on Wednesday that while the SDF were expecting the US withdrawal, "the manner in which it happened was quite surprising for us." Speaking after a press conference, the official added that answers to the Syrian conflict lie outside the country, stating that "the solutions are in the hands of super powers, because the Syrian dilemma has become an international dilemma."
US President Donald Trump announced on December 19 that he was withdrawing all US forces from Syria, declaring that the US had defeated the self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS; formerly ISIS/ISIL).

Ruptly youtube.com/watch?v=oiKtkvjsLOY The ancient Christian town of Maaloula near Damascus celebrated Christmas with a special service held at the St Elias church on Tuesday, as peaceful life returns to the area and the town restores its role as an important religious settlement. Surrounded by mountains, Maaloula is one of the few places in the world where Aramaic, the language of Jesus Christ, is spoken by the locals.
It has important religious building such as two ancient Christian monasteries - Mar Sarkis and Mar Thecla, which, however, were badly damaged by militants from several groups including the al-Nusra Front and Jaysh al-Islam in 2013.

>Record number of Russians now regret collapse of Soviet Union >New polling conducted by RT shows that 66%of Russians now regret the collapse of the USSR an increase of +8% from previous years estimates of 58% Lukashenko leading Soviet Reunion when?
Yeah but on the other hand, it's rude not to even say hi when you visit another country. Especially because the US are the ones who fucked them and are now occupying them.
Isaac Stewart
Also they want to do operations in Syria from Iraq
Austin Butler
I think this ME expedition made Russians taste power and success again, it's natural for them to wish to be stronger since they are no longer all depressed.
>Lukashenko leading Soviet Reunion when? Was the Soviet Union based? mean i know Stalin hated Jews(which was the only good thing about him)
Lincoln Murphy
It feels like when a president of a country that occupied you come to visit army of his country and leaves because he has no business to plead with occupied losers. OH WAIT....
Soviet Union fluctuated between being retarded and being based. People mostly miss it because we realized that the west just raped us when we tried to give up power and make friends. Fuck the west, should've just grit our teeth and stayed commies. Yup. Just gotta rub it in that Iraq has no rights and no voice. Just a slave state.
Oliver Bailey
We'll depends on what topic your talking about If it's just about Blowing mutts and Ishrahell away then yes If it's about Muh Freedumz then no If it's about Muh shekels Muh economy then....Meh not the best not the worst
Except the Intial 1948 war when USSR supported Israel because of all the Gommies that moved there to Kibbutz and shit the USSR universally supported the Baathists Arab Nationalist's in the conflict

I wish I knew man. I was just born when this shit started happening. Judging by what Gorbachev says, yes. People actually thought that capitalism would be fair and just and would make them all rich. Local governments just thought about stealing as much wealth and power for themselves.
Robert King
what do the non-russian people think? pretty sure most of them would rather die than have soviet union (not all ofc, abkhazia for instance. maybe the central asian niggers too). could you say no to this man?
#BREAKING: @AP: "Israel carried airstrike in #Syria, in which a series of Iranian targets were hit including Iranian storage and logistic targets being used to transfer weapons to #Hezbollah #Israel also took out a Syrian anti-aircraft battery near Damascus"
Most Soviet / ex-Soviet citizens don't support and never did the USSR dissolution The Truth is that they were basically just straight up lied to by Gorbachev (Yeltsin came later) During the Period of Andropov the USSR attempted to adopt basically Chinese Gommunism (Goverment still owns all land but private companies can exist but if they act in a fucked up way then the gov can still annex them) and the Economy actually saw some improvement and ending of Stagnation in some sectors Gorbachev became an ally of Andropov and once he died came to power basically promising to continue Andprov's model Instead he basically the told the US he wouldn't support Soviet Allies and gave them full permission to Color rev Eastern Europe Dissolved the economic unity between soviet republic's Allowed US backed separatists like Yeltsin into goverment Even though public support was never in support of separatism / dissolution (Polling undertaken in 1991 show a 80% support for Union) eventually the sabotage was just to much and Yeltsin somehow managed to take control of the Russian Republic secede and basically dissolve the country

>Even though public support was never in support of separatism / dissolution (Polling undertaken in 1991 show a 80% support for Union) eventually the sabotage was just to much and Yeltsin somehow managed to take control of the Russian Republic secede and basically dissolve the country Yup, I remember reading that there was referendum for keeping the union, with Baltics and Georgia leaving but that is was sabotaged.
Honestly imagine getting to power in a fucking Superstate, who decides where half of existing world will go just to fuck it up all to the ground and then shit on it again as it tries to grasp for life.
Adam Thompson
If Shanahan takes over from Mattis on Jan 1., how long would the Syria withdrawal roughly take?
Bentley Cruz
Central Asians were actually some of the most Loyalist in the entire country with the referendum results there being like 90% pro Union The dynamic was basically that the Russian fed and the Euro Soviet states would send economic aid to Central Asia to build factories and Industry and shit and the Central Asians would work in the Russian fed as hard labor in return and would send remittances back home This model still basically exists but now Unemployment at home is higher so an entire chunk of the economy is maintained by men moving to Russia to do manual labor and sending money back home
Most actually realized this was going to happen thus almost no one shilled for separatism in the referendums and support for Union 90%+ in most CA Republics
Easton Rogers
Yup, the biggest reason why the west cannot make central asian states hostile to russia is that their whole economic ecosystem would implode and they would be worse off than hoholistanis.
