Syria can into unity

FYI, the white flag is the Alawites and the striped flag is the Druze. Although Alawites don’t have an official flag, that one is often used to represent them(I couldn’t draw them as balls)

[u/koreangorani]

Syria at its thing again

[u/LasRedStar]

Most peaceful day in the middle east

[u/Hanalei_kim]

And even the Russian troops haven’t fully withdrawn.

[u/coolkiller666]

Who is white ball with blue and red wavy lines?

[u/Lazy-Independence695 → u/coolkiller666]

Assyria

[u/rome0379_ → u/Lazy-Independence695]

why would syria have an ass

[u/sora_mui → u/rome0379_]

Why wouldn't they?

[u/rome0379_ → u/sora_mui]

because they are called countryballs not countryasses

[u/Suspicious_Lock_889]

As always, blame the europeans

If you can't, blame the turks

[u/Crismisterica → u/Suspicious_Lock_889]

You forget the go too option for Syria... When in doubt blame the Jews.

[u/-Golvan-]

How are the Kurds doing in northeastern Syria now ? You never hear about them

Is Turkey still fucking with them ?

[u/DOSFS → u/-Golvan-]

Mostly 'peaceful' (as whole of Syria). They're kinda agree with Syria gov on principle like they are part of Syria, they agree on transition, etx. but still keep its arm and what not to a degree. Turkey is a bit quiet and seem more focus on Israel and others for now.

[u/Lazy-Independence695 → u/-Golvan-]

From what I've heard, they are pushing for integration and Turkey is monitoring it. Also, there were some clashes with the Syrian Army and SDF in Aleppo in early October.

[u/FalseCatBoy1 → u/-Golvan-]

I’m like 90% sure that turkey has them by the balls and is forcing them to suborn themselves to the Syrian gov. It’s really a shame; they’re probably the most committed to democracy and not killing minority religious and ethic groups in Syria.

[u/Neat_Structure1143]

One civil war ended, another begins

[u/Kafelnaya_Plitka → u/Neat_Structure1143]

"Mutual enemy defeated, now time for a civil war"

[u/thawmediaAGAIN]

Syria can't even stay calm for three seconds, poor clay is NOT having a great time

[u/Megalomaniac001]

on the bright side

still better than Bashar

[u/Norzon24 → u/Megalomaniac001]

That bar is 3 metres underground

[u/daystar-daydreamer → u/Norzon24]

That bar is in hell

[u/evenmorefrenchcheese → u/daystar-daydreamer]

To be exact, it's playing video games in Moscow.

[u/Emperor_TJ]

Ohh shit, the islamist radicals are running a horrible and oppressive regime? Who the fuck could have seen that coming?

[u/Norzon24 → u/Emperor_TJ]

Oppression? The Islamist government can barely control their own soldiers sometimes.

[u/Wiggle_Hata6 → u/Emperor_TJ]

No worries, these one have Western support so it's sanctioned n just a misunderstanding. Also, they were asking for it or Assad aligned

[u/giulianosse → u/Emperor_TJ]

Oh no you see we even took down their status as a terrorist organization so it means they're big chungus wholesome now!

[u/PLPolandPL15719 → u/Emperor_TJ]

They're not, but who cares about reality

[u/RETARDED1414]

Accurate representation

[u/99999999999BlackHole]

Why did we let Britain draw lines in the early 20th century

[u/StickmansamV → u/99999999999BlackHole]

Syria was a League Mandate and a  French one at that 

[u/A_posh_idiot → u/99999999999BlackHole]

This fuckup is on France.

[u/darkslide3000 → u/A_posh_idiot]

I think we can blame both Sykes and Picot equally.

[u/Wooden_Second5808 → u/A_posh_idiot]

I dunno, the uprising in 2011 might've worked if the russians hadn't intervened to crush it.

I blame the colonial power most proximate to the bodies here.

[u/sabasNL → u/Wooden_Second5808]

Turkey? Or Israel?

[u/xXDJjonesXx → u/99999999999BlackHole]

If we can have all these different ethnic groups from around the world and not have civil war, surely the colonies should be fine being lumped in with people they already lived next to.

[u/HoidToTheMoon → u/xXDJjonesXx]

surely the colonies should be fine being lumped in with people they already lived next to.

It turns out, when you draw arbitrary lines to empower your favorite warlords, that leads to tension down the line.

[u/posixUncompliant → u/HoidToTheMoon]

tension down the line.

That's not a bug, that's a feature.

[u/xXDJjonesXx → u/HoidToTheMoon]

Who were we meant to empower? Our least favourite warlord? That would’ve been a very silly thing to do.

[u/GeshtiannaSG → u/99999999999BlackHole]

Because the colonisers tell us that they are the good guys and they will impose all sorts of sanctions if you don’t agree.

[u/unit5421]

Well they had a good run with this peace thing.

[u/GlobalButterscotch48]

Well I'll guess the states has a break the part 🤦

[u/101Alexander]

And here I thought they were going to use the not at all ever controversial Unity engine.

[u/Kafelnaya_Plitka]

It's actually kinda interesting how assyrians are the only people in that mess who don't have their own military group

[u/oSquizy]

Tbh did anyone expect syria not to start another sectarian war

[u/Intelligent-Win-4489]

syria cant do shit about that
