Media Blackout: Syrian Government Has ISIS Almost Defeated in Syria: The SAA is achieving this victory without the help of the United States, and the�Guardian�notes that Russia is providing Syrian troops with airpower. As�Anti-Media�reported�on August 22, 2017, the SAA was closing in on this region to try to beat the U.S. military to the punch; the U.S. would have rather given this territory to the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Russia’s military presence and bombardment of the area�complicates this issue�greatly for the U.S.

The mainstream media has been fairly silent on these recent developments even though they could signal the demise of ISIS as a territorial entity and�pave the way�for thousands more Syrian refugees to return to their homes. Thankfully,�regional commentators�have helped keep the story up-to-date and confirmed what many of us have been predicting for some time now.
