    My latest w/ for : 's Coming Forever War. A nuanced take to 's offensive that breaks down why viewing this as "an army's assault on militias" is ill-thought. Backing one militia against another is not an answer either.

    أولا، ليس هناك أي شيء مبطن، لا أعتقد أن قوات حفتر هي من نفذت أي عملية من هذا القبيل، لو كنت أعتقد ذلك لقلتها علنا. تعليقي كان على عدم مشاركة بوخمادة في الحرب فقط لمن يتابعني، كما علقت على الناظوري أمس. أما عن "المجزرة"، لم أرى دليل لحدوثها. ثانيا أنا لست صحفي، و لا أشجع أي طرف.

    's ambassador in talks : "rise in terrorism & departures are worrisome" Aside the frivolous take, it sheds light on an oft-ommitted dynamic re 's foreign support: it isn't piecemeal, , & coordinate.

    "Some reports suggested the explosion was targeting 's Wanis Boukhamada, the current Commander of the Saiqa Special Forces. LNA has said Boukhamada was unhurt" Boukhamada has not been seen taking any part in 's operation so far.

    A misleading assumption some may have is that after April 4th, 's loss of popularity w/ locals in West resulted in increased legitimacy for or anti-LNA armed groups That assumption isn't rooted in reality. GNA has failed by every metric of governance.

    "The war has brought old rifts back to the fore and created new ones. Powerful new militias are likely to arise from it." I agree. Expecting 's security landscape to remain as bipolar as it may be perceived now is short-sighted. Alliances will likely unravel on both sides.

    The fact the found in Gheryan were procured by doesn't mean one should unequivocally assume that the far-fetched theory that French operatives escaped in April 2019 via is true... But yes, put itself in a quagmire credibility-wise now.
