Idlib, Syria- US initiates attacks- Russia and Syria Eradicate US Proxies

Hell, there is so much going on! I gotta tear myself away from the news out of Syria and the wider region. It’s been a brutal 24 hours in Idlib. Idlib. An actual demilitarized zone. Rebels participated in Astana talks.Agreed to by Russia, Iran, Turkey, will the participation and understanding of the Syrian gov. alongside the rebel representatives.  Covered here: Russia says Close to Syria Deal with Turkey, Iran The deal was done. An uprising was fomented with the encouragement of the US, absolutely undoubtedly. The timing is too relevent to what is occurring presently in Syria SAA and allies make advances in Deir ez Zor.- Coincidence? I think not.Attempt to distract SAA from their advances in Deir ez Zor? Definitely! The US is claiming SAA has breached their claimed demilitarized zone- The US, in my opinion, claims one third of Syria as a no go zone- Unlawfully, illegal and immorally. Not that the Usrael concerns itself with those things.
