So...someone just shot the Russian ambassador to Turkey...

It doesn't matter how much it has invested in Syria. Every fukking Sunni is looking at what's happening at Aleppo and all they see is Russia helping the Syrian regime slaughter their people. The game is different.

I'm not defending Assad's crimes and the Russians bombing of areas where they've killed civilians. I believe Russian strikes have killed thousands since they entered the war last year. There will be blowback but the Russians aren't going to care as long as their objectives are met.

Also...

The sectarian narrative has become entrenched but the facts on the ground aren't as black and white.

Yes, Iran and Hezbollah are playing their roles. Iraq has Shia militias there too. But this war isn't Alawi/Shia vs. Sunni.

It's more like Sunni/Alawi/Shia/Christians vs. an opposition of Sunni Syrians from the rural areas who were forgotten for years and subjected to authoritarian governance along with opportunistic foreigners and the psychos Assad released from prison.

Majority of the Syrian Army soldiers are Sunnis. The majority of residents in Aleppo are Sunni (Western Aleppo was under government control for most of this war and it has 1M people). The Sunni upper and middle business class in Aleppo and Damascus has always supported Assad which is why he's still there. Pro Sunni govt militias have been assisting the SAA including Palestinian groups.

The dynamics of the war started with the Sunni population that lived in rural areas of the provinces and were of poorer or lower middle class. That's the population that rose up to demand better economic livelihood and political representation.

Unfortunately, the radical groups have proven to be the best fighter and Syria has become the flash point to recruit radical Muslims to fight. Thanks to KSA and Qatar... along with other wealthy gulf donors

Obvious false flag

Not really the same as Afghanistan. Russia isn't occupying Syria. It's assisting the UN recognized government and was invited in to provide air support, intel capturing and advising on the ground.

Afghanistan had 100,000 Soviet troops there. Huge investment.

Russians aren't spending much to do their Syria operations.

The blowback by sympathizers to the rebels, AQ, and salafi type groups is a concern. But its nothing new.

Russia is no stranger to terrorist activity inside its borders with Dagestan and Chechnya... and the Saudi $$$ that came in there.

Costs argued to be more than offset by increased arms sales apparently boosted by the Syrian conflict providing the Russians a platform to show and prove their equipment

Booming business: Russia's Syria operation nets arms dealers billions

Russia's campaign in Syria leads to arms sale windfall

Syria's war: A showroom for Russian arms sales

Yup... Modi and Putin signed a big arms deal at the BRICS summit in October. Sales to Iran went final with the international sanctions gone.

Russia and Syria on the verge of progress...to which progress is impeded by Western backed ISIS Forces who refused to allow civilians to leave as confirmed by several journalists this past week who were on the ground and lived to tell it ...Trump about to be elected..Obama threatening folks without proof.and now a Russian Ambassador shot and killed at close range wearing no vest...by security personnel in a NATO sponsored country of which NATO recently threatened Russia

Barack isn't stupid

1. Killing a diplomat is not appropriate retaliation
2. Killing a diplomat several days after you threatened retaliatory response is even worse

I doubt this has anything to do with the US.

I am with you on holding off on whether Obama is responsible...as it ain't his call to begin with....however He issued the threat on behalf of the USA Corporation....and if you think this fukkery happening on the same day as the Electorate vote is mere coincidence....you a damn fool

We need President Trump to guide us in these dangerous times

Mr. Trump we need your geopolitical expertise

Suit game on point for his last mission.

To many scenarios at play, anyone could be behind this

a possible lone actor or rebel/terrorist operative
The US coalition could be trying to paint Russia as a belligerent actor in the eyes of Sunni muslims around the globe and especially in the middle east after the fallout of Aleppo

The Russians themselves could be trying to gain leverage with Turkey or bolster their support among those who support their Syrian intervention globally
what if its the Turks themselves did this to keep a foot in with all sides (ISIS, US, RUS)
