Thank you for the update, Ed. I had seen some combat footage that suggested things were not going well for the government the last couple of months, but I had no real feel for the situation, players, or the odds. Your point about "no Star Wars endings" is well taken. Question: are these groups socialist/communist aligned like the Kurdish YPG? I saw those red flags and did not not know what to make of them.

@EdNashsMilitaryMatters Ugh. Reminds me of Syria circa 2011-2012. Or Lebanon. Or Russia, around 1917. I hope somebody is thinking about getting everybody to sit down NOW and hammer something out that is workable post-conflict, assuming it can be. (and assuming they maintain this momentum) And where is China? I thought they backed the junta? Getting shy again?

@arararagisan1197 I hope your post-war government isn't "interesting", assuming they manage to throw the junta out. I am also surprised the Chinese are not doing more to support the junta. My understanding was that they were a primary backer.
