Fighting the Regime in Qamishlo--GoPro footage

     Ok, as promised, I got the Go-Pro footage from my buddy Freeman Stevenson of the fight in Qamishlo, April 22 2016. His Go Pro goes dead about an hour and a half into the fight, so a lot of it isnt seen. Also, Yes, Mormon and Ciwan were aware that twenty minutes of fucking around is far to long for a casevac. We were all a lot more aggressive about first aid after that. Some commanders are better about this than others. For example, when this Tabor, Shaheed Kareem, was pushing through Gunds during the Manbij operation, we had only one fatality, despite several Hevals being shot through the chest. They were given treatment on-site and moved out quickly. I've seen several of them since then, and they're on the mend; Including Heval Aria, from this video. As I've said in the previous post, with enough smart and good natured idealists like Heval Aria, this whole social project will be for something. Anyway, I go into more detail in the previous post, 'War is a Drug, Part Six: Qamishlo.'  More to come.


Note to Roy Gutman, of The Nation: You're decrepit old ass really thinks that the YPG and the Syrian Regime are Pals? IN THE FUTURE there will probably have to be some collusion, to get the country out of its cycle of rubble production and corpse manufacture. It's just the way it's going to have to be. But I assure you, there is no love lost between the SAA and the YPG, let alone a clandestine partnership. You think the SAA and the YPG regularly kill one another to hide the conspiracy, or some such tin-foil hat fuckery? Get the fuck out of Istanbul and out of the pocket of KRG and MIT handlers. Go take a tour of Nusaybin, or any number of Kurdish cities demolished and massacred by the Turkish State. Talk to people outside of a managed environment. Be a journalist, not a hitman.
