    Syrians made up significant numbers in the insurgency in Iraq in Sunni dominated areas.. but I think the majority of the training of FSA comes from the Syrian army itself where most of them did army service as conscripts or before deserting. Videos are uploaded by the hundred a day from Syria most are not embellished with religious singing or crummy graphics and most only show protests or clandestin e film of Syrian army activity. Wonder how many of the "radical videos" are made outside of Syria?

    Arab gulf have no shortage of radical Sunni Islamists, be it from Syria or any of the other member states. The most notable AQ member in Iraq Musab Al zarqawi was Jordanian, his replacement Al Masri was Egyptian.

    Yeah, I bet the Syrian artillery school teaches advanced IED construction with a graduate level class in EFP's.

    Hidden camera footage of Militia in Damascus- light arms, no helmets, no body armour driving around in civilian vehicles. They look to shabby to be one of the favoured security arms of the government anyone got any ideas?

    The next person to bring up another members nationality or bicker about unrelated stuff. Attacking Climber for living in Argentine was pretty cheap. Thought this was a photos and video thread.

    Sorry EFPs ? Where? Haven't seen those - thought they were an Iranian speciality? Iran is I recall rather fond of Assad?

    Sorry this vid is chaos not sure what the are claiming or whether this is one or 3 incidents the text says it shows the infiltration and planting of a bomb near a village called Tueni in revenge for the killing of a relative. It claims a number of casualties caused by the destruction of a truck.

    How would you see them? In these videos, if an IED blows up, it blows up. Kind of hard to tell without inspecting the damage what kind of bomb it was. LAWB's right. The opposition who are now making advanced IED's are getting that knowledge from elsewhere. The Syrian Army isn't the one teaching the FSA and other groups, it's Sunni militant groups from out of country.

    Don't fill up this thread with reposts and replies to stupid arguments. As we say here "lurk more, post less".

    edit: Also, if you're going to be posting multiple videos, group them together. This site allows 5 at a time. Don't waste pages and pages posting single videos.

    I was only speaking in jest with a touch of sarcasm. I think the three of us could put together an effective EFP in an hour or so as long as someone supplied us with enough C4 for a viable weapon. I've seen to many smoking armored vehicles in this thread not to consider some as victims of EFP's.

    I was going to say maybe the Hezzi's over in Lebanon taught a class but I don't belive the FSA would be invited

    Yup. A bucket, some explosives and a bowl shaped piece of copper. Don't need to be a terrorist mastermind to figure that out.
