The division of control line is the Euphrates - Russia has the west and the US has the east. Raqqa is east of the River ... The US owns ISIS ...

Almost all of Russia’s efforts are in the west. ISIS only suffers the occasional US pinprick when the lawyers agree there are no possible civilians within half a mile. ISIS is not on the run, but actually growing.

However, Assad says his forces will take back the entire country, so what happens when they cross the river is any one’s guess.

Turkey and SA both support and finance ISIS which is Sunni. Assad and his SAA are Alawites - close to Shia and Iran.

Saudi planes are there to help the Turks kill Kurds and SAA troops. There are no ISIS forces around Azaz (Kurd) and Aleppo (SAA) - but are further east.

wow. you know your stuff.

then that’s it. theres no ISIS related reason for Saudi Jets to be there.

and if assad wants his whole country back, which can only happen with Russian warplanes, this could get bad.
