    Strike against military vehicle - looks like a bus, second vehicle seems to be the source ...some kind of mobile weapon? This does actually look a bit like an EFP explosion. Looks bad. opinions?
    There is no way to tell from a short Youtube video.

    Video taken from the neighborhood where the twin car bomb attack in Damascus happened. They catch the second one on tape.:

    It does look like the fighting in Syria has gotten even worse than the eventful winter (siege of Homs neighbourhoods, etc).
    It has. Much more foreign fighters added to the mix. Lots more IED's, too.

    Sooner or later, Syria is going to become (if it hasn't already) a gigantic terrorist melting pot like Chechnya and the Balkan in the '90s, that's the way I see it anyway.

    Also,

    The way I understand this video (with my limited understanding of Arabic and, of course, Google Translate) is that the kaffiah wearing guys are an Aleppo patrol unit meeting with a military engineer (guy with black moustache).

    Worse or different? The FSA inititially spent a lot of effort trying to defend demonstrations and hold individual districts in cities. The seem to have changed to typical asymetric warfare tactics - trying to pin Assads forces in defensive positions and attacking where they are strong and the Syrian army and militia weak. Roads..infrastructure, checkpoints. Unlike Iraq and Afghanistan I doubt Assad's forces have they ability to adapt with improved vehicles, armour, and countermeasures. They will respond with there counter productive tactics of mass arrests, collective punishments and brutality.

    Whereas in Argentina you have the antics of a frankly insane president to keep you all entertained.
    This makes you a troll, because I just posted what I think about this, I know 2 or 3 things about terrorists, Islamists and Syria, and I was answering Universal Soldier, but you just came with that cheap thing about Argentina ( I wonder if you have been infracted by that), then I just did what LWB did, I sent you to eat them, because you are .....a troll.

    Now, stop derailing the thread, thanks "whatever guy"

    I have seen a video of an EFP being used in Syria by the rebels just a few minutes ago - don't want to post it though since you can consider it as terrorist propaganda.

    Right now I kill time. And spare me the bullcrap, I never wrote to you, you wrote me. I just said what I think.........neither side have my sympathy, both can kill each other all the way if was up to me, and the Arab spring is for mind numb wussies.

    And maybe you should review your ways, like they say here, lurk more, post less, because this is not a video, this is a cheap post and was uncalled for:

    It's this simple: stop replying. Climber's lived in Israel, I think he knows a bit more about this conflict and Arab culture than you do. You're starting to derail this thread with posts like this^. This is supposed to be a photos and videos thread. If you want to pick fights with members, do it in a private message.





    Syrian Army cameraphone video of them doing target practice with a technical and other weapons:

    Statement from Syrian Army defectors who defected with their BMP the other day:

    I wonder till what point defectors will be accepted. Sure, some do not really have the ability to defect without fearing the lives of their families, but some units have too much blood on their hands. Then again, I guess the units with the most blood on their hands will be more likely to fight harder till the end of the Assad regime.

    Group under the banner of the FSA using an IED they planted at a Syrian Army checkpoint to blow the whole place up. I suspect this group to be foreign fighters because how organized and good they are. They post attacks like this every single day. (graphic):

    FSA snipe a Syrian Army soldier on a rooftop (graphic):

    That same group of fighters from the first video attacking a Syrian Army vehicle at night. I see two craters so it looks like it was a double-IED:

    Syrian tanks driving through a city firing:

    Fighting heard in Tripoli, Lebanon this morning between pro and anti-Assad forces:

    Homs- the translation says FSA rescuing a family under fire. But nobody seems to be armed except whoever is shooting.



    FSA unit (Reportedly near damascus) show off prisoners and captured rifles and grenades.

    No ****. They are the same group (look at their logo) that blew up that checkpoint a page or two ago with a suicide bomber. Not to mention the use of anasheeds and creepy AQ intros.

    I'm just wonder when they start beheading people.
