Why no russian knife?
By some reports they are still trying to negotiate with the HTS to keep their little port.
They bombed Syrian rebels to fuck, if they keep that port it’s a minor miracle.
There are reports of russia dismantling it’s military assets in Syria
Because it is propaganda piece. All what happened is that the Syrians managed to get out the most oppressive knives (Russian and Iran).
Yeah, Russia and Iran are far more oppressive than the US, Israel, and Turkey
My country was “freed” by Russia, and let just say we would prefer they would leave us with Nazi Germany.
And for those with bad memory there’s also Ukraine, Georgia, Chechenya.
While the USA is far from perfect, they don’t use chemical weapons on their own people at least.
This is definitely an improvement for the Syrian people.
Hello! I agree with the point you are making but I must satisfy my need for historical accuracy.

Come on, you don’t get access to spare WW I Ammunition and use it without Government approval.
They went down from five knives to three? Sounds like an improvement.
It’s not a comics, it’s a Soviet type propaganda.
This was all planned long ago, back in the 2000s, James Woolsey (ex head of the CIA), Jacob Rothschild, Dick Cheney, and Rupert Murdoch all invested large sums of money onto Genoe Energy, the oil exploration company charged with surveying and drilling the contested Golan Heights area which is just outside of Israel’s border.
…the problem? It’s in Syria. So now it will become Israel’s as they bomb the area in preparation for settlement (straight up Colonialism, it never ended just become one of the many under handed behaviors enabled under Capitalism).
So this is the planning, the investments from the wealthy ruling class members of multiple countries, the political lobbying, and the geopolitical military industrial complex that serves that ruling class, all coming together.
So anyways, that’s what I interpret this image to be about. Genie Energy has a Wikipedia page that can confirm the above details if anyone is interested.
P.S I suspect Turkey is represented for contributing fighters and doing administration, or being part of the carve up. But perhaps someone more familiar with that can add more about their involvement. They stood to benefit no matter who “won”.
Turkey is explicitly backing the Syrian Natonal Army (not the actual Syrian Army or the Free Syrian Army - splitters!) but it’s understood that they were also backing HTS to some extent (although not openly as they are still a proscribed organisation in a lot of western countries) and it was Turkey that greenlit the recent big push as their negotiations with Assad were going nowhere. So, while the West have been scrambling for some influence in Syria (and Russia and Iran have lost their’s), Turkey has been left as the main puller of strings in Syria. Their main concern is the Kurds and they were attacking them within a day or two of Assad falling.
