Al Queda's stronghold in Idlib, Syria is being ground down by Russian/Syrian air power and artillery - nobody cares (no countries).
This phase of the war will grind on for some time, reducing the housing and infrastructure, and producing more refugees - including the hardcore of the Sunni extremist jihadis, who have been concentrated into Idlib, as most of the rest of the country was cleared.

I guess the terrorists can decide to hang it up, but why should they when their enablers are willing to put reports like this.

Syria Ping.
The Telegraph mentions a rumored deal between the Russians/Assad and Turkey, to trade Kurdish territory in the East (recently taken) for territory under Turkish/jihadi control in the Syrian Heartland (Idlib Province), between the second biggest city (Aleppo) and the Capital.

Hope they roll in with the TU-95s and carpetbomb them. Only rebels are there. Hit the olive groves too!

The Russians and Syrians practiced a divide-and-conquer reconciliation strategy throughout liberated Syria, Those willing to join were integrated into local communities, those islamist extremists who refused to accept being part of a secular state ( or who were guilty of war crimes and atrocities against villagers they held captive) - were offered bus trips to Idlib with their families. So this is the last redoubt and the time of reckoning has come, These men dig in among their captives ( executing those who try to escape) and hide behind their women and children, Fair reporting would show that the Russians do try precision targeting of key islamist figures and weapon sites, Also the SAA. When it comes to liberating innocent villagers held captive.
But it is going to be bloody and innocents will die.
This is not our war except we prolong it by acting like al Qaeda militant islamists are redeemable. Have to break with Trump on this, Trust the Russians to clean out the vipers,

This isn’t surprising in the least. War is always the game in the middle east as long as there is Islam..and that’s certainly not going away.....and Syria will always be a target for war and conflict.
