i'm rewatching this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfXmpJRZPYI and I'm struck by the importance of arguing against intervention when it doesn't happen. This was in 1998. He is arguing against an invasion that didn't happen for another three years. I think our current trajectory and saber rattling with Syria will result in an invasion if we keep pretending hostilities are normal like this.

there has been no successful intervention in the middle east by western powers for the last 50 years, or ever. any intervention will just be murder for ends we'll be culpable for in the worst ways when our plans fail

Yandat posted:i'm rewatching this: The window on any real significant intervention has long been shut. The Trump administration talks like they're going to do something about it, but they've never been willing to do anything that will actually make a difference. The cruise missile strikes are just red meat for all the natsec ghouls. At this point the only way I can see a Western invasion of Syria happening, is if NATO somehow has Article 4 invoked because the SAA attacks Turkish forces in Syrian occupied territory.

rudatron posted:The people ethnic cleansing are isis and the 'moderate' rebels. Assad couldn't cleanse the sunnis even if he wanted to - his brutality is a function of attempting to assert control. Its not the same thing. On a moral level, it is tho. assads attitude towards his subjects is one of non-humans

Yossarian-22 posted:pr and propaganda is still a big loving deal, and could have been the difference in convincing the american public not to back intervention in 2013. yeah, congress decided it, but the u.s. state's utter lack of domestic and international credibility after iraq is not some poo poo to be underestimated, especially as it sparked the biggest global outbreak of protest in history (more than the population of iraq itself). congress was not going to back a war that clearly would have been hugely unpopular from the outset That's a really roundabout way of saying nothing is going to change.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/syria-yazidis-isis-islam-conversion-afrin-persecution-kurdish-a8310696.htmlquote:The Yazidis, who were recently the target of massacre, rape and sex slavery by Isis, are now facing forcible conversion to Islam under the threat of death from Turkish-backed forces which captured the Kurdish enclave of Afrin on 18 March. Islamist rebel fighters, who are allied to Turkey and have occupied Yazidi villages in the area, have destroyed the temples and places of worship the Kurdish-speaking non-Islamic sect according to local people.  quote:Reports by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), widely seen as neutral or pro-opposition, citing multiple sources in Afrin confirm Mr Qamber’s account of sectarian and ethnic cleansing by the Turkish army and its Arab allies. It says that it has reliable information that ‘the resettlement of the displaced people of Eastern Ghouta in the Afrin area is still continuing.’ It says that Abdul Nasser Shamir, the military commander of Faylaq al-Rahman, one of the most important armed groups previously fighting the Syrian government in Eastern Ghouta, has been settled along with his top commanders in a town in Afrin.
