    My latest: "Can the confront in ?" The current escalation in the Basra Bay may have seemingly calmed down, but will the downing of the U.S. drone have real-life implications for Iran in Syria?

    "The US has limited options & no real effective way of dealing with Iran in Syria. This is because the US’ policy on Syria is constructed in a way in which the fight against Iran was not & could not be a part of it. To challenge Iran, the US needs to re-start its Syrian policy."

    "Lastly, the U.S. could target Iran by empowering the Syrian opposition, a natural enemy of Iran in Syria, but this would mean to re-evaluate U.S. policies in Syria again."

    "UAE re-engaged with the regime, arguing to limit Iran & Turkey by offering an alternative. However, this opt is a product of mindless politics. The regime won't abandon Iran, which saved the regime when everyone abandoned it and especially not when Iranian militias are in Syria"

    "The extent of the Israeli air campaign is limited by Russia, and by the regime’s air-defense capabilities. Israel might function as an important asset for the US to strike Iran in Syria as its own air force would need to challenge the Russian air-superiority in western Syria."

    "Only an over-extended air support might overdo the unwillingness of the SDF to cut the Tehran-Damascus land route. However, this may open other fronts of weaknesses for the US & risk the demobilization of some SDF units, including its biggest Arab component, the Shanadid Forces"

    "If the U.S. wants to take bold steps to undermine Iranian presence in Syria, its partners on the ground are an alliance of forces who did not come together to fight against Iran, and lack the motivation to do so. The SDF is not capable and is unwilling to confront Iran."

    "The US sidelined itself by solely focusing on the fight against Daesh. The US made it a pre-condition not to fight against the Assad regime in order to get US support to fight against Daesh & partnered with the Syrian branch of the PKK, formed the SDF, ergo not an enemy of Iran"

    A good piece about the YPG forcing any other Arab force within the SDF to be under their command or face consequences & the US refusal to supply Arab forces. The article only miss the role of eastern Syria originated factions in the National Army.
