Britanski Independent pise trenutno o stanju u Siriji i u cijelom tekstu samo dva puta napise "regime"!!!
Inace, tekst pise o pozitivnom razvoju situacije za vladu u Damasku i mogucnosti da SAA iz ovog sukoba izadje kao pobjednik, sto jos u maju mjesecu ove godine nije bio slucaj.
Interesantni dijelovi:
1. "Earlier this year, we may remember, this same army (SAA) was being written off, the Bashar al-Assad government said to be reaching its final days.
We employed our own army of clichés to make the case for regime change. The Syrian army was losing ground – at Jisr al-Shugour and at Palmyra – and so we predicted that the whole Assad state had reached a “tipping point”. "
2. "But the Russians are now telling the Turks – and by logical extension, this information must go to the Americans – their flight coordinates. Even more remarkable, they have set up a hotline communications system between their base on the Syrian Mediterranean coast and the Israeli ministry of defence in Tel Aviv. More incredible still is that the Israelis – who have a habit of targeting Syrian and Iranian personnel near the Golan Heights – have suddenly disappeared from the skies. In other words, the Russians are involved in a big operation, not a one-month wonder that is going on in Syria. And it is likely to continue for quite a time." -
Rusi razmjenjuju informacije sa svim stranama direktno ukljucenim u sukob.
3. "There’s a regular civilian bus route from Raqqa to Damascus – buses have an odd habit of crossing front lines..." -
ovo mi je nevjerovatno da ima redovna linija izmedju ova dva grada
4. "If it wins – and if it holds together and if its manpower, which is admittedly at a low level, can be maintained – then the Syrian military is going to come out of this current war as the most ruthless, battle-trained and battle-hardened Arab army in the entire region. Woe betide any of its neighbours who forget this."
