Syrian rebel forces take Aleppo | Ian Bremmer's Quick Take

[@gvrgs5471]

Thank you for all the important information you provide us Ian

[@janebishop5885]

This filled in more details to make a better picture of events. Thank you.

[@pindapoy1596]

@janebishop5885 What is obviously missing is the hidden hand of the West trying to weaken Russia by eventually getting to impose their (Western) presence in Syria and Georgia, meaning the South of Russia and its warm waters naval outlets.

Thank you Mr. Bremmer. Always on top of happenings.

[@sasansayad1717]

what a joke the rebels have jihad flag ...I thought they were terrorists

[@_mana_]

been waiting for Ian's update on Aleppo situation. tyvm.

[@visionaryremodelsllc2901]

Thanks. Insightful analysis

[@ln6593]

It’s not Syrian rebels - it’s foreign Al Qaeda fighters.

[@billcasso5428]

Excellent explanation and analysis. My hope in all of this is that Erdogan comes out looking worse and weaker and many Turks feel the same way.

[@martinbrizuela3289]

it waxes and wanes

[@professorakiba434]

A Turkish-Russia war has a long history. Dates way back into the 15th century so its no surprise

[@chillxxx241]

A new front? This war has been going on since 2011.

[@patewing5808]

Terrorists not rebels

[@michaelavery1978]

They're taking the opportunity before Tulsi gets in office. Jk

[@randycastilo1992]

Why any government we don’t like is labeled “regime” while Israel which is a terrorist state is not?

[@chillxxx241]

Trump said the US should have kept the oil😂😂😂😂

[@James-hm9on]

They did keep it

[@chillxxx241]

@ Nope

[@jdotsalter910]

The US still controls it with soldiers and bases on the oil fields.

[@dmitryletov8138]

You meant terrorist forces funded by US and Turkey, right? HTS called terrorists by US and EU.

[@KVUAA]

Why you remind me of blinken

[@richdobbs6595]

I think that this take has a good chance of aging badly.

[@freeheeler09]

Any prediction for the Middle East is likely to fail. But Ian bases his predictions on a pretty good understanding of the region.

[@JumpingJack79]

Middle East itself is likely to "age badly", and there seems to be an infinite number of ways in which that can happen 🙄

[@Ασσουρμπανιμπαλ]

Is not rebel forces is terrorists of isis renamed

[@TheVeritas2100]

100% CORRECT and Bremmer NeoLiberal, NeoCon always on the side of "IDIOCY"

[@JoeBlow-fp5ng]

But we say they are the "good guys" now. Absolute Biden sh*tshow.

[@Ramschat]

Rebel and terrorist sadly mean the same thing at this point. The word terrorism has lost all meaning beyond 'rebel'

[@nikkimontgomery6889]

The Wests sudden CHECKMATE move! Ramping up the pressure from the periphery. Your enemy always has a vote….

[@Ramschat]

As someone is the West, I really don't think that giving Erdogan more power over Syrians and Kurds is a good idea. He's an enemy in waiting

[@macaccount4315]

Assad is in Moscow

[@ralphsimpson4593]

But We got the oil.

Ottoman Empire 2.0

[@koiguidenishikigoi4972]

You mean they swept in like trump supporters in your parliament or whatever a few years bk 😅

[@wegder]

Why is Turkey in NATO

[@Peace2051]

Let me guess, they have a foot in both Europe and Asia, for 400 years they ran the Ottoman Empire, and they share a language group with several central Asian countries. Am I close?

[@rodpanhard]

Erdogan loves to play both sides to benefit Turkeys interests.

[@Humanaut.]

@@Peace2051 that doesn't explain why they're in nato.

[@graykennedycapital789]

@@Humanaut.the west quietly fear turkey almost as must as the west fear Russia, plus Turkey is strategically located and has a large army. The west thinks it is best to keep them close. Hope that helps.

[@richdobbs6595]

At that time Turkey joined NATO, the USA wanted any ally it could get against the USSR, and Turkey showed willingness to commit to western causes by costly acts like fighting in the Korean war. Turkey was a secular republic with perhaps the most western orientation of any Muslim majority country. And NATO has no mechanism to expel members that no longer align with the alliance's goals. Doh!

[@zoranmrdjenovic8127]

Ovaj izgleda kao da se javlja iz groba😂

[@tonsnoby]

Hey Ian, you purposefully avoiding discussing the role of the fascist state of Israel in the rebel uprising. If you want to be taken seriously, stop treating your audience like idiots!

[@ahmedaminhimel]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 We understand who you are.

does that mean Turkey takes the oil?😅

[@YamenShahedah]

Russia has a huge shortage in men and melitery equipments, I doubt they will send anything

[@alimodiri6165]

The only reason the pocket of Takfiri exist in Idlib is because during the initial dirty war of Syria, they were given option to retreat and take their family anytime they were surrounded in a city, in order to reduce damage to city and non-combatant population. Russia / Iran / Syria has an option to level that area if they wanted, and if they acted like colonialists (ISR/USA/NATO). The idea was that they would be contained and perhaps eventually they would give up their takfiri trade and move on. It was a bad idea.

[@udayaliyanage3776]

OMG. No real insight. Repeating some hackneyed headlines. What a waste of time.

[@JoeBlow-fp5ng]

This guy has zero insight. He's useless.

[@Lochamp]

Go watch something else

[@JumpingJack79]

You seem to know more about the topic than Ian. Please enlighten us.

[@robertriteman3227]

Amazing that he could not find an angle to blame Israel

[@dantegarcia6663]

@@robertriteman3227 Remember the rebels are also considered Islamic extremists. Once in power and control they have the same objective to obliterate Israel, thus later they are threat also to Israel's security and existence. Both sides are threats to Israel.

[@joe18750]

Turkey should step up. But they won't. Erdoğan doesn't have the cajónes.

[@Hannibalbarca2323]

Well he's the one funding the al Qaeda "pro democracy rebels" He's stepping up plenty from his perspective

[@TheVeritas2100]

Russians and Iranians will ... 😞

[@joe18750]

@@TheVeritas2100 I respectfully disagree. Russia is already in deep shit in Ukraine. To pull resources from Ukraine to go Syria, would be folly. Iran? Maybe. But that too would be world class buffoonery. It just gives Isarael another front to kick their ass and cause global humiliation for the Ayatollahs. But, no one in recent times have called Russia or Iran particularly smart, so you may be right.

[@justayoutuber1906]

Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.

[@matematleta492]

Quick takes for clicks, to improve his economic situation. These posts should be flagged as spam. Bremmer is not saying anything new or interesting. Pure pandering and it is off-putting.

[@Lochamp]

Go watch something else. No one is forcing you to watch this or comment. Save your breath and move on.

[@JumpingJack79]

Please provide a better source of geopolitical analysis.
