No Stalingrad in Damascus, against much speculation.

Haven't heard confirmation that they've captured the city although they're starting to get in now.

They are showing reports from around the city it appears no sign of a takeover by the jihadis yet.

And behold a mighty city broken in the dust again,
Oh God, Pride of Man, broken in the dust again.
Turn around,
Go back down,

Back the way you came,
Babylon is laid to waste, Egypt’s buried in her shame,
The mighty men are all beaten down, their kings are fallen in the ways,
Oh God, Pride of Man, broken in the dust again.

Syrian State TV remains on air the link posted in post 6.

Two or more times this story has been advanced to a point it has not reached as I see it.

The Jihadists will be in charge. Will Syria descend into chaos like Libya? Assad, the Russians, and Iran are out. Turkey will have a big say in how things will proceed from here. What will Israel do?
