Very little news is being reported on the wars in Syria and Iraq........WHY??
Over 320,000 people have been killed in Syria. It's a hell hole.
In Iraq who knows how many have killed, but aid agencies say they do not have resources to care for people escaping fighting in the Iraqi city of Mosul.
Camps for the displaced no longer have enough space to accommodate new arrivals.
.
I’m guessing that’s good news.
One of the oldest tools of Fake News is not news which is actually fake, it is the selective choice of what new to cover.
The fakery then, is emphasis on reports which further the Fake News agenda.
It doesn’t fit their agenda. If the US realized there are important things happening they might have to stop belittling President Trump
Because the War in Syria is Obama’s (deliberate) “war” .. One designed for the Western Christians (who used to be) in Syria and the (less-radical) Syrian government who oppose ISIS to LOSE.
Kerry, Obama, Hillary. Do you really think they are on America’s side in ANY decision?
The deaths are deliberate. And Russia’s opposition to the mullahs and radical Muslims IS the ONLY story there BECAUSE it is Obama’s Muslim allies who are being opposed.
The youtube channels where I used to go to get Syrian war news are being severely censored with “sorry that video can’t be shown” popping up after going through all the burning hoops.
First of all, this White House is not about to upstage our war planners which would essentially be giving away their plans, unlike the previous administration.
Secondly, the last significant thing I hear was the SDF had ISIS on the run in Tabqah with the final push to end them there and also on the dam. The remaining holdouts were in the neighborhood along the lake and there was also booby trap clearing going on to secure the dam as well. The last report was they were starting their final offensive to secure the dam and the town that evening and I have not heard a peep since. I think that was on Tuesday.
With Tabqah secured, the battle for Raqqah could commence as ISIS is now trapped on all sides. I would hope any nws coming from that area might be nill because they are setting the strategy and conditions considering we are coming up on a full moon later this week. It may be a couple of weeks before the main assault would come with a new moon.
This is so nicely written I copied it and put it on my FB page.
Thanks :)
So....
If this story isn't being reported it's because multimillionaire white liberal elites don't want their useful idiots in the press to report it.
Thanks.....
Update posts should be made here on FR.
...because the media doesn’t care. The only war they know is the war against Trump, his supporters, and anyone to the right of Lenin. Those are their real enemies.
Dog bites man ain’t a story. Syria has been in some state or other of distress since the 50s with a few windows of almost stable. Iraq’s been a mess since we toppled Saddam. SNAFU is simply not news worthy.
Because nobody gives a crap about it.
Because obama and other democrats like McCain (D) started the war and do not want the number of dead and the destruction revealed.
Doesn’t fit the MSM’s narrative.
There has been news. We have moved an artillery unit into Syria to support the assault on Raqqua. While the taking of Mosul has been bloody and long, it appears to be coming to a close. My guess is that by the end of this year, ISIS will be effectively out of Iraq and Syria and they will be re-constituting themselves in Yemen and Libya. The main question is will the good guys be able to get Al Baghdadi before he flees the coop to Yemen or Libya and what will the post ISIS war of Iraq look like? Will we be able to keep a substantial amount of troops there (10,000 or so). My guess is yes on the last one.
Even now there are reports out the NSC and JCS are outlining troop levels and strategies moving forward for Afghanistan. I think they are making plans for the next phase of this war. Yes, I said next phase because at some point we will have to defeat ISIS in Libya and Yemen. That doesn’t mean troops there, but we have to work with our allies to totally eradicate them.

Still up in the breaking news sidebar. This is great news. Now the final planning for the advances on Raqqah will commence while these warriors get a bit of a breather.
Now they they are not getting fed the fakenews from the government they have to go get it. no one wants to go to syria right now.
