The Americans along with the Democratic Forces of Syria which the Kurds constitute their center with some of the Arab figures announce that the battle of Raqqa has started and the Kurdish forces are progressing under the US coverage toward points that ensure that beginning.
The Russians comment on the US announcement by advising not to exaggerate with hopes because the way is not smooth.
In comparison it can be deduced what the path that will be conducted by the battle of Raqqa.
In Ain al-Arab Kubani, the Kurdish units have waged under US cover a war against ISIS that has lasted for three months till the control on Ain al-Arab.
In comparison to sizes, the three months in Ain al-Arab is multiple times for Raqqa in geography.
In comparison to the importance and the vitality according to ISIS, its fate and, its last stronghold, it can be understood the sacrifice of ISIS to withdraw from Ain al-Arab and to cling to Raqqa.
In comparison to the Kurdish popular environemnt in Ain al-Arab and its status according to the Kurds, and Raqqa and its Arab structure, not being a tribal issue that deserves the sacrifice according to the Kurds, Raqqa will not be receive the same courage or the same popular environment .
The three months in Ain al-Arab may become years in Raqqa.
