Syria’s have give frustrations to the ones instigate and pay to the unskilled terrorists: which I have seen on videos the way acting; that isn’t the way for combating proposed, only what doing just terrorism when opportunist arrive. Syrians army should continue the way have doing; Russia not involved personal in the conflict, to proved the Syrian army doing very well, at the same time, the others do not come with another invasion. I mention before and again once more: Syria, Iraq, and Iran give the Kurds independence to create a wall against Turkey, and keep the friendship with them, like another friend country against Turkey. Pass-on to the other countries, because the Kurds are today around 40 million people and could make one more friendly and strong alien. That also help Iran if a new conflict come around; I shouldn’t saying, a union of countries with just about the same culture and religion, should being friends to protect all of you of the same way of life. Iraq and Afghan and Syria have been abused. A.Oscar
