The proper thing for a guerilla force is to avoid fighting columns of tanks and APCs. Other than with mines and demolitions of course. Even if they have RPG-22’s.
Let the Assad troops fire their tank guns as they like. The insurgents should be somewhere else, to kill the regime supporters who don’t have tanks and APCs. They will learn that eventually. Most insurgencies do.
Mao had it right strategically and tactically.
nope, let the Sunni jihadis fight the shia jihadis to the death.
Hard to avoid IFV/tanks when they are crashing through your home.
In recent weeks I've noted many of Assad's tanks have been up-armored. He is using ZSU-23s to sweep up. Clear upper floors of tall buildings. Tulips and arty. Tanks at ground level. Top down via helicopters/fast-movers.
He is really putting it on the FSA. Casualties rising. Death toll rising. I suspect well over 20K already. His is either following advice of someone, or using their "volunteers." Perhaps Russian advice (ala Grozny) and Iranian assets.
Theory is one thing. Reality another...
