I just want to point out that this is the single best write up of Syria's current military-political landscape that exists anywhere right now. That includes everything published so far by all the fancy D. C. think tanks, policy institutes, universities, newspaper and television explainers, etc.
My general overview of the post-Dec 8th picture. Next post will focus more specifically on SDF/SNA/Turkey developments: Manbij, Deir ez-Zour, civilian casualties, protests, Qamishli airstrikes etc.
