isn't it how the rules change entirely depending on who's calling the shots security analyst charles shubert believes a truce could play into the hands of rebels in eastern gooda. a ceasefire at this stage may well actually in the short term produce some benefit to the civilian population but it would probably longer problem in the long term because then it would allow the rebels to recreate it would allow. formations to reorganize ammunition to restock and so on and so even though it sounds brutal to some no doubt but from a military perspective this is better to be gotten over with quickly and to end the suffering as quickly and painlessly as possible and of course this kind of situation is never going to be painless for civilian population if we go back to the days of the british an american led as it was called bombardment of mosul plus of course the u.s. led bombardment of rock in syria there were no calls of course for a ceasefire to take place there were no cause amongst the western media like most western politicians and very few laid out.
