No marked sign before the big decline

Written by Nasser Kandil,

The Syrian war has witnessed phases of alternation for achieving the military gains between the country and its army on one hand, and all the affiliated forces of the alliance against it on the other hand, it has witnessed phases through which the scale turned in favor of the armed hostile formations that are against the country and the army and once vice versa, furthermore it has witnessed phases of balance and attack and retreat, while the army proceeds in a front, its opponent proceeds in another.

Three months ago it seems that the matters are in  favor of  the army against its opponents without any move of attack and retreat, without any vocabularies that the war is contest, without any alternation on achieving the progress, the victories, and the balance through having control on a geography vs geography, thus the Syrian army proves that it is the owner of the initiative, the owner of the accomplishments, and more importantly it achieves its victories on the Syrian geography from north to south and between, where the army does not need to move its troops by which it fought from the north to the south in order to achieve victories, but it triumphs from north to south simultaneously and in parallel.

The stability of the graph of victories in favor of the army alone and the succession of these victories, moreover the demonstrative achievements on the Syrian geography are features that characterize the Syrian army for the first time in the war and an indicator of one-way direction in any coming battle, after the opponents of the country and the army have tested all what they have of power elements, the distribution of resources and the attempt of changing the destination of the battles, as long as the qualitative weapons which were given to the militants have been used, and after the opportunities of the regional and international intervention have been exhausted, thus the direction has become resolved, and the context has become clear. The victory is in its way in favor of the Syrian army.

This conclusion is not reached by just the supports of the army or the objective observers only, but its opponents too at their forefront those who fight against the army, in the beginning they fight furiously hoping to change the destination of the fight, then they fight with the cleverness of escape, maneuver and dispersing the efforts, and when they feel of depression they started to retreat in front of the army with minimal losses, this situation makes the final outcome of the wars achievable.

The expectations of the end of the war are not measured with the time which the Syrian army needs to liberate the site that is under the grip of the opponents, and considers it an optimum of the needed time or a good standard, time decreases from battle to another through which the Syrian army gets out victorious, the acceleration has its meaning in a moment that is not known by anyone or expected by anyone when the big decline happens. This has happened in many previous wars that we lived from the war of Iraq to the American occupation of the capital Bagdad, proceeded by the fall of the occupied border strip at the hands of the resistance at once after the fall of number of the occupation sites and its militias towards liberating the occupied strip.

After the battle of Salma and the rolling quick victory of the Syrian army, stay tuned to the big collapse among the armed groups.
