Hier een artikel dat op de hoop concepten bleef liggen, een artikel van Information Clearing House gepubliceerd op 23 februari jl.
In dit artikel een duidelijke uitleg over wat er nu gaande is in het door de VN als soeverein erkende Syrische bewind en de door haar ingeroepen hulp van Rusland, Iran en andere ondersteunende strijdgroepen.
Een artikel over de enorme anti-Syrische, anti-Russische en anti-Iraanse propaganda gebracht door de reguliere westerse (massa-) media, propaganda die herhaald wordt door het overgrote deel van de westerse politici......
Neem Turkije dat het Syrische bewind van terrorisme beschuldigde, daar dit bewind volkomen terecht probeerde en probeert de Turken, die illegaal Syrië zijn binnengevallen, uit haar land probeert te verdrijven..... Een illegale inval in een ander land is één van de zwaarste vormen van terreur en een oorlogsmisdaad van formaat! Turkije doet dit daar het stelt dat YPG terreurorganisatie is die een direct gevaar vormt voor de Turkse staat, echter deze groepering heeft tot nu toe niet één aanslag in Turkije gepleegd...........
Toch kan Turkije gewoon haar gang gaan, het westen onthoudt zich van commentaar, laat staan dat het ingrijpt door van Turkije te eisen zich terug te trekken uit Syrië en stemt daarmee in met deze grote oorlogsmisdaad, waarbij intussen een groot aantal mensen zijn vermoord door Turkije... Kijk daar hoor je de verontwaardigde westerse reguliere media niet over, terwijl de leugens in die media over Oost-Ghouta niet meer te tellen zijn (ofwel 'fake news' over dit stadsdeel).......
Dit is nog maar één voorbeeld, lees het volgende artikel ajb en geeft het door, een artikel waarin wordt aangegeven dat de agressie van de VS in Syrië van een vooraf opgezet plan is voorzien. (o.l.v. de VS, zijn o.a. Saoedi-Arabië, Turkije en Groot-Brittannie, al vanaf 2006 bezig geweest een opstand uit te lokken tegen het Syrische bewind, dit met de opzet een staatsgreep te bewerkstelligen tegen Assad)
US
Aggression in Syria – an Imperialist Blueprint
Editorial
February
23, 2018 "Information
Clearing House" - Syria’s
prolonged conflict and misery going into its eighth year is no
accident. It is by design. American imperialist design.
First
though, we note the increasing reprehensible absurdity in this
conflict.
Turkey,
which invaded Syria nearly a month ago in violation of Syria’s
sovereignty, this week accused Damascus of “terrorism” after the
Syrian government sent forces to defend the northern area near Afrin
under assault from Turkey.
Meanwhile,
US forces, again illegally occupying Syria in violation of
international law, claim to be fighting terrorist militia. Yet more
often than not, the Americans are affording protection to various
terrorist groups.
Then when Syrian state forces advance to clear the
terror groups, the US claims it is acting in “self-defense” by
massacring whole units of the Syrian army.
Further
absurdity is due to France, which has been bombing Syria illegally
along with the US and Britain, warning Iranian militia, who are
legally present in Syria owing to Damascus’ approval, that they
have to withdraw from the country.
As
if the situation couldn’t get any more bizarre, Israel has carried
out more than 100 air strikes on Syria, claiming that the aggression
are “acts of self-defense”.
The
Syrian government of President Assad is the sovereign authority of
the country, as recognized by UN resolutions. It has the right to
defend its nation and to reclaim areas which have been usurped by
illegally armed groups. Virtually all of these insurgents are
foreign-backed proxies who have been waging a war for regime change
according to the designs of their foreign sponsors.
The
only armed forces legally present in Syria are those of Russia, Iran
and associated militia who have been requested legally by the Syrian
government to assist in defending the state from a foreign-backed
war.
It
is within the sovereign right of the Syrian government to take back
all areas, including the suburb of East Ghouta near the capital
Damascus. The district has been held under siege by foreign-backed
extremists going by the name of Jaysh al Islam who are affiliated
with internationally proscribed terror groups Al Nusra Front and
Islamic State.
The
impetus to liberate East Ghouta has come about because the militants
have been firing mortars at nearby Damascus with deadly results.
Not
only are Western states violating international law by militarily
hampering the Syrian army and its allies in rescuing the country from
foreign insurgents, the Western governments and media are mounting a
propaganda campaign in an attempt to tie the Syrian state forces’
hands behind their backs by distorting their legal duty as
“barbarism”.
Out
of the half million people who have died in the past seven years of
war in Syria, it is estimated that nearly half of that total were
members of the Syrian army.
Added
to the Western calumnies over Syria are claims that Syrian state
forces have been using chemical weapons on civilian populations. The
evidence points in fact to the Western-backed so-called jihadists who
have been stealthily using these weapons for false-flag propaganda
stunts.
To
understand the chaotic conflict in Syria, we must refer to the
decades-old imperial designs that the US and its allies have had
towards the country. The Americans and the British governments going
back to Eisenhower and Churchill in the 1950s wanted to destabilize
and subjugate the Arab republic – a former French colony.
In
1996, a new generation of imperialists in Washington led by Richard
Perle, Douglas Feith, David Wurmser and other neoconservatives
formulated the “Clean Break” strategy. The strategy in
conjunction with Israel sought to destabilize and “roll back”
Syria because of its alliance with Russia, Iran and Hezbollah.
More
widely, the neoconservatives in Washington openly declared their aim
of balkanizing the entire region in order to, in their calculation,
make Israel more secure. Syria and Iraq were top priorities for
US-imposed chaos.
Significantly,
the Clean Break strategy designated Turkey as a key partner to the US
and Israel for implementing this plan.
The
same American neoconservative planners went on to occupy key
positions at the Pentagon and State Department during President
George W Bush administrations. There is every reason to believe their
stratagem of organized chaos – as a way of exerting hegemony over
the oil-rich Middle East – continues to be the guiding, albeit
tacit, policy of the US government under President Trump.
Russia,
Iran and Hezbollah largely helped Syria bring the war to a close at
the end of last year with the widespread routing of foreign-backed
insurgents. However, a subsequent peace process brokered by Russia,
Iran and Turkey has lost momentum. The violence in Syria appears to
re-igniting.
The
increasingly overt military presence of US and Turkish forces, as
well as Israeli incursions, is the clearest factor in the resurgence
of conflict. More than ever, the US and its allies are operating on a
brazen imperial design to dismember Syria and its territorial
integrity.
This
is nothing short of criminal aggression by Washington following a
deliberate plan for regional domination. This imperialist intrigue
should be called out for what is by the United Nations. But rather
than upholding the UN Charter, the body’s senior figures are
joining in the Western chorus of condemning Syria for defending its
national rights.
The
UN is appearing like the ineffectual League of Nations in the 1930s
when it pandered to Nazi and fascist aggression. What the US and its
allies are doing now in Syria is a repeat – fanning the flames of
wider war in the Middle East.
Laws
and sovereignty are being smashed at will and yet the Western media
and UN are blind to the aggression. Indeed, they are turning reality
on its head, by blaming victim-states for the aggression.
The
straightforward bottom line is that the US, Turkey, Israel and other
NATO powers must withdraw from Syria. Respect Syria’s sovereignty
and desist from criminal intrigues for regime change. This is a
minimum of abiding by international law.
If
these protagonists persist in their criminal schemes, the region is
heading for a conflagration sparing no-one.
