There is nothing "Syrian" about those rebels. Those are foreign invaders, buckets of wasted sperm. Look into the eyes of those maggots, drugged up and glossed over. Those bastards ruined that country.

Let me get this right……..

There is no native adyghe people .
There is no native Kurdish people.
There is no native Assyrian people.
There is no native Armenian people.

No one from those groups are native to Syria?
They are all foreign invaders?

Please wait while I come to grips with your world bending revelations.

Welcome to la la land……and my brain hurts!!!!!!!

The Jihad beard gives him away if nothing else does.

found them much more amusing then your thread trying to get us to like Hitler and look at him in a new light......but it was an interesting insight to your thought process...

in every war there looser's(usualy civilains fair the worst) and winners and historically the winners get to point the finger at who was bad and who was good
one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter

in relations to your comment that they are all wastes of body fluids etc and not Syrian how can you tell that by looking at them? the only one i saw that didnt "look" like a local in those photos is the Russian/eastern European looking guy in photo 5 and 6 as he looks paler then the rest

you got such a problem with the rebels go do what that Asian kid Chris Jeon from ucla did, show up join a faction and start shooting at fools who you have a problem with......it seemed to work out for him quite well and he didn't even have family to defend in the region

i will give you this some of them did look a little high but hey its a warzone and all that

He may be French, but it is most likely adyghe or a mix of others. The adyghe are a lot larger portion of the population.

Most of the French moved out when they declared independence, but there is still a good amount of French decedents in that country.

ah thank you i am not up to date on all the ethnic groups that inhabit the middle east thanks for teaching me something today

There would be reason for that. A lot of Russians are also of adyghe decent.

Well that is just as creative as anything. I suppose it's a look at how creative any population with machine shops and industrial supplies can be if they desire to be....Hmm.. Some Western nations perhaps.

Interesting what they could do with so little to work with, to be sure.

I do kinda wonder about the validity of one photo though. Surprisingly for the FSA stuff, only one really got my attention too. It's #2. That looks like a kid.....except for the wedding ring and that is what first got my attention. What idiot wears a bright, shiny new wedding band like that in a war zone? The right reflection off that would be awfully helpful to someone looking for it. Then I got to noticing super clean...everything. Looks like the cammies just came out of a plastic package. He's spotless and even the shoes only look like a few steps of mud to get right there since bought or last cleaned really well. Hmmm.... I smell set on that one.

The rest though? lol... You can't fake some of that creativity. Great thread!

Nice call wrabbit! After I read your comments I went back and had another look at the photos. When one works with metal one normally takes some minor damage. In most of the photos there is no sign of singed clothing due to sparks. Sleeves in close up look brand new. Leather jacket looks like it is Sunday best. Every photo where I would expect some small tell tale sign of metal work shows nothing of the sort!

Even the hands do not look like metal worker hands and no gloves in sight to protect said hands.

Looks more like a bunch of actors with props. Certainly not what I would expect from "hundreds" being produced.

Perhaps we should label the photos as simply propaganda shoots.

P

Those are some pretty impressive armaments. I always wondered if they manufactured their own weapons after seeing some pictures of machine shops and what not even early on in the war.

It stands to reason that everyone with technical know how will either fight or make the fighting possible. THIS to me is modern warfare. Not million dollar machines built by specialists thousands of miles away, but inexpensive simple war machines built on site by the actual combatants.....IMO, It is the future.

The war is reprehensible on both sides, but the ingenuity of these people is impressive.

Sorry, but I have to disagree. Gloves? Who wears gloves when working on a lathe? Only a fool. The hands look dirty and calloused. Exactly like the hands of the metal and shop workers I have known all my life. I do believe that some of the photos are staged by the photographer. I imagine he told the people he was going to be coming around to take pictures and they did dress up a bit, but I don't see any obvious signs that would lead me to call fake.

Which photo was fake? The one where the guy is sanding the nose cone in the lathe? The one where the homemade napalm is being poured into bottles? Or the one where the men are cooking home-made explosives? Yeah, not buying the whole propaganda thing even if some photos are staged.

One thing I love about using an android tablet is that I can expand the picture huge. Upon closer inspection to picture number two, I find that the shoes are worn, and discolored. Yes his pants look clean, but certainly not brand new. Remember, hygiene is paramount in the battle field. And just because they are third world, doesn't mean they don't have soap and water, and are always filthy. The kid probably put on clean pants, and that photo of him might be the first thing he was doing for the day. When i was in the service, I was constantly doing laundry, and cleaning my boots, its doing a form of preventative maintenance. I believe all these photos to be legit. And also, the ring does not look bright, shiny, or new. And if it is a wedding ring, its on the wrong hand for starters. Just saying, wrabbit.

Crazy!
