Thank you for this - it's so hard to follow what is even happening in Syria.

The whole proxy war situation is duplicitous fuckery of the highest order. Some people like to play obtuse, but there are no good guys here. Just a lot of innocent Syrians, trapped between more powerful countries and their war games.
