[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like a dumbass, but I really don’t understand what’s happening in Syria and who’s who in the conflict. [/quote] Don't be so hard on yourself, its comically convoluted. Different intelligence agencies support different groups of "moderate terrorists" and sometimes they fight each other. Israel bombs Syria on the regular. Turkey is feeding mercenaries and jihadis into the conflict. The US has bases in eastern Syria to support various terrorist groups and oil companies. There are even Ukrainian training the terrorists on drone warfare. On the Syrian side you have the Syrian government, Russian regular forces, Iranians, Iraqis and even the Kurds it seems. Pretty much everyone has their own angle, and if Assad were to be toppled, it could unleash quite the chaos. Probably wouldn't be contained to Syria.[/quote]
