$250MM.  How big is that pile?  Like literally how big?

In those denominations not very big at all. A mill in bricks of $100s fits into a 3 ft x 2 ft burlap sack easily carried by two men or one stronger man.

Assad claiming Russians forced him to go. And don't remember any video of Drones hitting the Russian base. He should STFU and count his rubles while staying away from windows.

'I didn't intend to leave Syria,' purported statement by Assad says

Syria's former President Bashar al-Assad says he never intended to flee to Russia - in what is purported to be his first statement since the fall of Damascus eight days ago.

Assad's reported statement was put on the Telegram channel belonging to the Syrian presidency on Monday, although it is not clear who currently controls it - or whether he wrote it.

In it he says that, as the Syrian capital fell to rebels, he went to a Russian military base in Latakia province "to oversee combat operations" only to see that Syrian troops had abandoned positions.

Hmeimim airbase had also come under "intensified attack by drone strikes" and the Russians had decided to airlift him to Moscow, he says.

Oops..

https://www.yahoo.com/news/viral-cnn-segment-showing-syrian-161027497.html

CNN is investigating the identity of a man who the network reported to be a Syrian prisoner freed from a secret jail as CNN cameras rolled after a local fact-checking group said he was actually a killer and torturer for Bashar al-Assad’s regime.

CNN’s Clarissa Ward went viral last week when she covered the alleged rescue of a "Syrian prisoner," who she reported spent "three months in a windowless cell" in one of the Assad regime’s secret prisons. Ward called it "one of the most extraordinary moments I have witnessed." But some observers were skeptical of the given narrative, since the man appeared to be decently groomed and in good condition for someone locked in a horrific prison and allegedly not given food or water in several days.

Verify-SY, a Syrian journalism organization specializing in fact-checking and combating misinformation, on Sunday reported the prisoner was actually Salama Mohammad Salama, also known as Abu Hamza, who was a first lieutenant in Syrian Air Force Intelligence notorious for torturing young men.

Former U.S. war crimes ambassador at large Stephen Rapp said on Tuesday that evidence emerging from mass grave sites in Syria has exposed a state-run "machinery of death" under toppled leader Bashar al-Assad, in which he estimated more than 100,000 people were tortured and murdered since 2013.

Evidence? They fucking found them. And the numbers are going to go up. (bold is mine)

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj90wz8weymo

More than 100,000 people are thought to have disappeared in Syria since 2011.

In the past week, the rebel group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) - who ousted Assad after more than 50 years of his family's rule - has opened up prisons and detention centres across Syria.

Rights group have concluded that more than 80,000 of the missing are dead. Another 60,000 people are believed to have been tortured to death, according to the UK-based war monitor the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).

Local people are reporting more and more locations of mass graves across Syria, and the Syrian Emergency Task Force (SETF), a US-based NGO, says that nearly 100,000 bodies have so far been found.

Rights group Human Rights Watch says such graves should be protected and investigated.

At another site in Qutayfah town, further to the north-west of Damascus, the SETF says thousands of bodies are believed to be buried in different mass graves.

One local resident, who witnessed the burial of bodies over the years of Syria's civil war, says they were packed in refrigerated containers brought in by security forces.

The ground would be filled with bodies - and then the site would be flattened by bulldozers, he told the BBC.

Bashar al-Assad's wife files for divorce, seeks to move to UK

Quote

The British wife of Syria’s deposed president Bashar al-Assad, Asma al-Assad, has filed for divorce after expressing dissatisfaction with her life in Moscow, Turkish and Arab media reported Sunday. She reportedly seeks to move to London.

Asma applied to the Russian court and requested special permission to leave Moscow. Her application is reportedly currently being evaluated by Russian authorities

Russian Authorities have also frozen his assets and money. His assets include 270 kg of gold 2,000,000, and 18 apartments in Moscow.

And he likes to wear a uniform, so maybe there is a conscription letter in the mail?  Or he might die of a sudden window accident, and all of his assets, escheat to the state.

She's probably going to need some comforting....

And look at it this way - she was willing to get down with murderous genocide, so whatever weird shit you're into won't even make her flinch.

Unless, of course, you were wealthy but then had your assets frozen. 

Run a murderous regime that dissolves its opponents in acid?  She's the happy housewife. 

Have your millions in stolen money frozen? BITCH IS OUTTA THERE!  It's good to know that there's only so much she'll tolerate, I guess.

I would think filing for divorce from that dude while still in Russia might shorten her life expectancy but who knows.

Ruh Roh. Shits not off to a great start.

Syria's new rebel-led authorities say 14 interior ministry personnel have been killed and 10 injured in an "ambush" by forces loyal to ousted President Bashar al-Assad in the west of the country.

They say the fighting took place near the Mediterranean port of Tartous on Tuesday.

Reports say the security forces were ambushed as they tried to arrest a former officer in connection to his role at the notorious Saydnaya prison, close to the capital Damascus.

Israel (and presumably the US) are taking out all the former Syrian army’s weapons cache’s.  Is Iran gonna supply more?  Would anyone else?  If not it seems like Syria will settle in to a low intensity conflict with competing war lords?

And so it begins.

DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Gunmen ambushed a Syrian police patrol in a coastal town Thursday, leaving at least 13 security members dead and many others wounded, a monitoring group and a local official said.

The attack came as tensions in Syria ’s coastal region between former President Bashar Assad’s minority Alawite sect and members of Islamic groups escalate. Assad was overthrown in early December in an offensive of insurgent groups led by the Islamist Hayat Tahrir al-Sham.

The U.K.-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the ambush in the town of Jableh, near the city of Latakia, killed at least 16. It added that security forces killed 28 Assad loyalists as well as three civilians.

Yeah, gonna go full tilt.

BEIRUT (AP) — The death toll from two days of clashes between security forces and loyalists of ousted Syrian President Bashar Assad and revenge killings that followed has risen to more than 600, a war monitoring group said Saturday, making it one of the deadliest acts of violence since Syria’s conflict began 14 years ago.

The clashes, which erupted Thursday, marked a major escalation in the challenge to the new government in Damascus, three months after insurgents took authority after removing Assad from power.
