GORILLA
TACTICS IN A PENDING CIVIL/ SECTARIAN WAR!
Take
good look at this picture from Syria
This
is not what the entrance to a city that
is dealing with, " small bands of armed thugs" should look like.
This
is the look of a city that reflects a pending sectarian conflict.
For
weeks now the stories of checkpoints based on clans and or religious beliefs have
grown in numbers and details.
This
picture, as most pictures do, tells a thousand words.
Sandbags
are not the tools of "insurgents"!
Sandbags
are a sign of a Syrian Military checkpoint.
A
military checkpoint that knows it can see more than just a random drive by
shooting from a " thug" in a vehicle.
The
mounded dirt is a vehicle denial barrier.
These
are not the actions of a " Policing effort to counter a few "
thugs".
What
this does indicate is the Syrian Military is trying to hold " Hostile"
territory.
That
means they do not control the area they are in.
They
may occupy parts of it, but they are under siege and the bunker is their
fighting position.
If
what Syria
Defectors
from the Syrian Military grow in numbers with each passing day and each time
they do so, the add to the collective intelligence the Opposition needs to make
decisions .
Just imagine if a young Sgt or Officer
defects.
The
information they have of troop strength, unit capabilities and unit locations
are all compromised.
If
these defecting members are brining unit equipment with them, not just weapons,
but radios, then the issue is even more dire for the Syrian Military.
Bottom
line:
This
is a very telling picture and it's unlike most I've seen coming out of Syria
The
Arab League is meeting in the next twenty-four hours on the Syrian topic and
they know all too well time is running out.
PS. I
wonder how many Turkish " Military Advisors" are inside Syria
If you
think not.... .think again..
If
you find one, he will have a Saudi Debit Card in his wallet.
