Rússia adverte: defenderá Síria. Mas EUA já prepara ataque.
Turkey and the United States have jointly decided to move into Syria, daring Russia to respond. The US and Turkey have dropped all references to protecting refugees, always a very hard to sell fantasy based on Turkey’s long history of persecuting minorities. State Department spokesman, Mark Toner, yesterday started laying out the rules for the “buffer zone” the US and Turkey have decided they are carving out for Turkey. It is claimed that this “zone” will be occupied by the Free Syrian Army and can only be used by forces sworn to overthrow the legal government in Damascus. There is a problem with this. There are no units of the Free Syrian Army in the North of Syria. In February 2015, that force disbanded with its leadership fleeing to Turkey. The Free Syrian Army, since 2014, has been reorganized by the Turkish intelligence forces as an organization answerable to Erdogan and the Saudi, Qatari trainers assisted by American contractors.
The majority of those initially involved with the FSA have accepted amnesty from the Damascus government or have joined al Nusra or ISIS forces. Any forces sent by the United States and Turkey into Syria can only be there for one purpose, assisting ISIS in overwhelming the Damascus government that has taken on new vigor in its fight against terrorist forces. Let’s be honest here. This is Syrian territory and the Syrian military has every right to bomb terrorists there and to operate freely there. Any attempt by the United States and Turkey to restrict the operations of the Syrian military inside their own country on behalf of what everyone knows are terror organizations that have been looting Syria on behalf of Erdogan and his wealthy friends, not just oil and antiquities, they actually trucked out an entire automobile assembly plant and dozens of other factories, all into Turkey.
