Depressingly inconclusive but illuminating article on the struggle between outside powers to control the blitzed country:

My heart sinks reading this line "It [Russia] was deliberately targeting civilians in opposition-held areas with the aim of flooding Turkey and Europe with Syrian refugees".

What an evil bastard Putin is. To displace millions of people with the sole aim of causing unrest in Europe.

Furthermore......
"Today the US controls one-third of Syrian territories through its alliance with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF); Russia (through the Syrian regime) dominates a bit more than half of the country; and the rest is under Turkish supervision (through the Syrian opposition forces it supports).

The SDF-controlled area contains 90 percent of Syria's oil and gas reserves, including al-Omar, its largest oil field, as well as most of its water resources, major dams, and power plants.Â

The northeast is also Syria's breadbasket. As long as this area is out of its control, no government in Damascus can survive independently from foreign aid."

Fancy !
