reposting since new thread. what was hafez al-assad's goal during the leb civil war? i find it strange how alawites and maronites, two ethnoreligious minorities of the levant surrounded by arab muslims, never got along.
scots are based AND redpilled. but nothing compares to the Welsh. their speech patterns are amazing, they are. that's why I'm posting on pol about it, I am.
venezuelan thot wants an amerimutt invation because that way there would be more "gringuitos" kids also she wants serum included in the "humanitarian aid" to help her deal with hangover
Don't be disheartened at slow threads, brothers. All the other threads except the occasional /sig/ thread are gay and kill iq points. Most of old/pol/ has made it in life. I think they all found jobs or something to do, or they couldn't stand the influx of boomers and shills and it forced them to build real social lives. But it must be tough living blackpilled and struggling to contain power levels. It's what happened to me. /sg/ is the only thread I go on.. And most of the time, I'm lurking... I prefer it honestly. There are others like me I'm sure.
But even if not, it's a weekend and even the regulars or semi regular b8 posters are out taking care of commitments so they can't post. Like that guy who went to the birthday party in the previous thread..
Anyways, what I'm trying to say is. After Syrian war finishes and rebuilding starts, the remaining posters will leave too. This might be our last year together.
We should use this time to talk about our lives, ambitions and how to achieve them, and offer advice and help each other if we can.
I'll start: I ruined my uni life with clubbing, bad company, girls and had to do my final year twice. My friends graduated before me and some got married. I'm behind them in terms of milestones.. I want to catch up. I've wasted a lot of time but the just 3 years I've worked hard and come back on the right path. I feel like a master's degree will speed things up. I wonder which universities in Europe will enroll me despite my poor gpa. Other then this, Alhumdulillah, I have no worries. The hardest part is resisting my old degenerate sinful life.
self improvement general is the worst kind of cancer if your unironically go there kys

It helped me find discipline. But sometimes generic advice like "do meditation and bee yourself" is dumb yeah. If you aren't better today than your yesterday's self, you're wasting your life.

well ive been there once and wanted to pull all the hair out of my head how i hated those people >My friends graduated before me and some got married. I'm behind them in terms of milestones havent done any milestones and dont intend to its artificial social signifiers, chasing empty things especially today knowing that relationships are just seeking physical pleasure, marriage means nothing today, jobs are 9-5 drudgery with no real value to offer i dont intend to get stuck slaving away in some office for shekels just so i could engage in pseudomasturbatory practices with an emancipated whore >If you aren't better today than your yesterday's self, you're wasting your life. for what exactly should i be improving? who am i proving myself to?
Grayson Clark
>who am i proving myself to? Yourself? I mean why learn all of these thing if you aren't going to utilize them

In the Arab world, although some girls are becoming westernized.. marriage is definitely something to look forward to. You should have standards though. As for work, it's a source of income. Do a job, get good at it, look into other departments and other people's responsibilities while you're there, try to learn how to do them, better yourself, start your business from the skills you acquired at another man's buck. (The first few years are a sacrifice where you get paid shillings despite earning quids for the company owner). But after you gain knowledge, you'll start your business and not make rookie mistakes.. because you know how a workplace works. And so, increased chance of success. There's zero drawbacks to gaining knowledge. Have lots of children and give them good lives. The world is not small, go somewhere where you find virtuous women and enough to eat 3 times a day
Improve for yourself. One day you'll be so old, you'll shit every time you sneeze.. no one will be there to help you if you don't have savings and your children to care for you.
You'll die miserable. Dying is unavoidable. Instead, try to die happy.
Inb4 you try to find loopholes around my responses because you're farming yous and don't care to fix yourself.
>You should have standards though. i do have standards tho, but what other people think or achieve is totally irelevant for them >Do a job, get good at it, look into other departments and other people's responsibilities while you're there, try to learn how to do them, better yourself, start your business from the skills you acquired at another man's buck lol no ty, id rather not be a corporate slave >There's zero drawbacks to gaining knowledge. one drawback, my dignity >Have lots of children and give them good lives and with whom do you suggest that i do that? >One day you'll be so old, you'll shit every time you sneeze.. and it will be the same as it is today, half of my village are my relatives >if you don't have savings and your children to care for you except we dont live in the middle ages so you need to have kids or you will starve >You'll die miserable just like i lived >Inb4 you try to find loopholes around my responses im not going to try to find loopholes, ill completely disregard everything you said and do the opposite
fuck college, fuck corporations, fuck achievements, fuck social acceptance, fuck all demands this rotten world makes of me ill live and work on my farm just like all the generations before me until they bury me on the village cemetery there are no virtuous women, there is no point in getting a career, its a sham

>especially today knowing that relationships are just seeking physical pleasure, marriage means nothing today, jobs are 9-5 drudgery with no real value to offer Perhaps you're just not really good at this whole life thing

Extremely based

i havent lost all hope i just hate this world i hate everything about it, i will never participate in it and i want to see it burn, as it burns i will laugh genuinely out of pleasure

well the Maronites wanted Lebanon as a seperate state that they could control, whereas the Alawaites, which controlled the Syrian state by this time, still regarded Lebanon as apart of Syria, so thier was a clash in interests. Generally, Lebanese Sunni's were the greatest supporters of unification with Syria, Druze and Shi'a would occiliate between the two poles. Then again being Lebanon its not so clear cut and inter sectarian violence also occured as well.
Blake Bennett
im not good at it and in fact i will avoid this life thing intentionally

>Russia's Foreign Ministry announced on February 8 it had decided not to send Russian citizens to Ukraine as part of the observation mission.
The election observation mission (EOM) of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) confirms there will be no Russian observers at elections in Ukraine. "The Ukrainian authorities have made it clear that Russian citizens will not be accredited, and there is no way to observe without such accreditation. As such, the Russians have decided not to send them," ODIHR representative Thomas Rymer told UNIAN in an exclusive comment.
"As they will not be in Ukraine, there is no way they could join the (EOM) team there," he said. Director of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) Ingibjörg Sólrún Gísladóttir earlier expressed her regret over the decision by the Ukrainian authorities to block Russian citizens from taking part in the ODIHR election observation mission for the March 31 presidential election in Ukraine.
In a letter to Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the ODIHR Director also expressed her deep disappointment at the passing today by the parliament of a law that would formalize such a restriction. "The decision to deny the possibility of accreditation to citizens of one participating State is without precedent and contravenes commitments made by all participating States to invite observers from any other OSCE participating States that may wish to observe election proceedings to the extent permitted by law," she wrote.
She underlined that observers sent to take part in ODIHR election observations missions do not represent their respective countries, but rather the entire OSCE. They are obliged to follow ODIHR's election observation methodology and are bound by the Office's strict code of conduct for election observers, including remaining strictly impartial and not intervening in the election process in any way.
Tell me about your farm. We have one too but I never took an interest in my ancestral property. What do you do on your farm? What's your source of income? Have you figured out ways to boost it? I want to use tech to maximize my farm's productivity one day. Do you raise fresh produce or livestock?
Cameron Cook
Interesting read on IS-Khurasan if anyone is interested
>What's your source of income? everyone in family works somewhere so its more like million different income sources >What do you do on your farm? its dairy farming which is traditionally done here >I want to use tech to maximize my farm's productivity one day i want to do organic and cut off technology as much as i can once i inherit it
Josiah Edwards
I wasn't asking about your family. What do you do that you get paid for? Do you not think that tech and modern science.. like monitoring animal diets, their health, their vitamin and mineral levels will improve milk output?
Julian Thompson
>What do you do that you get paid for? currently a part time job until i get my drivers license
>like monitoring animal diets, their health thats not really something invented with modern technology lol

>After Syrian war finishes and rebuilding starts, the remaining posters will leave too. I kind of assumed the general would just morph into a war general for the next big war, the same way /ug/ morphed into /sg/

Also have you considered the option that you might be delusional in the moment?

there's plenty of conflicts to go around, most people probably just don't care about em or they're not as dynamic as Syria was

it'll turn to geopolitics general inhabited by old time regulars etc.

let it happen on it own, the transition must be organic, not forced by the clicks and the fast typing of some SCOTTISH BOOMER.
>bout al-Khazali’s rivalry with prominent Shi`a cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, suggesting that Iranian resources do not necessarily produce militant group cohesion. These intra-sectarian rifts are likely to persist and will complicate Iran’s ability to project its influence in the future.
>A closer look at al-Khazali’s interrogation reports from his time in custody suggests that Tehran’s influence may not always produce unity.
this no joke the same with the Lahkmids (an old set of iraqi tribes prior to islam that were the puppets of the sassaniian empire). When the chad mujahideen madhab of khalid ibn waleed came, the lakhmids betrayed the majoos and sided with the muslim liberators.
fucking hell history keeps repeating itself its too funny. iraqis can't allow themselves to be controlled by majoos for too long, its just not in their blood.
moqtada is unironically based and redpilled, if this isn't all an act then he seems to be looking like quite a nationalist.
In reality, America doesn't like get their hands dirty when they need to have people tortured. If the North Koreans were honest with their propaganda painting, it would be South Koreans doing the torturing with Americans in the background. But that would damage their ethno-nationalist wet-dreams they like to peddle.
No one cares about the other conflicts. No one will have the support that Assad had, most other leaders are genuinely disliked, Maduro included. No one will care except it'll be a platform to clear media lies and post the truth. Still, there won't be enough posters or lurkers. Magatards will fuck it all up for those that try to remain. True.

>America doesn't like get their hands dirty when they need to have people tortured Abu Ghraib begs to differ.

if this general has any need it will keep itself alive without any added interference. if it dies it dies.
if you guys don't want amazing geopolitical and historical discussions with me thats cool i can't force you. this thread and all who associated itself with it will die out like an old animal in the wild.
Justin Clark
in other words, just ride the wave man
its here today, right now, it will most likely be here tomorrow

>>Report:Iranian forces are moving their supply center out from Damascus int/ airport to the T4 aibase in E Homs CS Cucks.
Juan Taylor
I think the Iraqi's have done plenty of manipulating of outside forces as well for thier own advantage. Probably why unity is so lacking, when no group can establish firm control over the others. But yeah, Sadr is probably the best placed to play the role of Iraqi national leaders, although I dunno what a lot of Sunni think of him
