Assad has made serious gains in Aleppo in the past week. At the expense of his own people, government troops have retaken areas of the city that were under rebel control. It’s time to face the hard truth. Assad will soon capture Aleppo and probably not much longer after that, will defeat the opposition forces. Trump hasn’t laid out a coherent Syria policy to date other than bombing the shit out of ISIS but its time for him to start planning what his next move will be and how will this war end.
