De strijd om Idlib
Het lijkt mij onwaarschijnlijk dat het bestand dat onlangs werd afgekondigd door het regeringsleger en de rebellen (strijders volgens de NOS) in Idlib een lang leven beschoren is. De provincie grenst aan Aleppo en dat zorgt voor problemen met de veiligheid. Turkije schijnt de gedemilitariseerde zone te bewaken maar dat houdt granaten niet tegen. Syrië zal, vermoed ik, niet berusten in het verlies van de controle over dit gebied. Er kan nog wel een bloedbad bij. Met een vermoedelijk geënsceneerde aanslag met een chloorgranaat op de ruïnes van Aleppo wordt de druk op de ketel gehouden.

Er is toch al langer bewijs dat ze die wel hebben en ook gebruiken? Chloor is ook niet moeilijk om aan te maken en niet zo dodelijk, er zijn geen doden gevallen in tegenstelling tot de zogezegd duizenden doden als rebellen eens een chemisch aanvalleke faken. |
Vanuit Idlib werd Aleppo aangevallen met chemische wapens.

Onjuist dacht ik. Macron réclame plus d'informationshttps://www.lci.fr/international/syr...s-2105597.html De media (*) zwijgt uiteraard, het bericht inzake de vraag naar informatie over een mogelijke chemische aanval in 'Alep' in de kiem gesmoord.

Despite the fact that chemical weapons were used by al Qaeda-linked militants in Idlib, the U.S. government and its allies have thus far been silent about the recent attack, even though the incident was covered by mainstream Western outlets such as CNN and Reuters. Instead, the U.S. announced a UN Security Council meeting — not to denounce the chemical-weapons attacks launched against civilians by an internationally recognized terror group but to address the recent hostilities between Russia and Ukraine over Crimea. This is particularly telling given that the U.S. – along with the U.K. and France – bombed the Syrian government earlier this year in April after the Syrian “rebel” group Jaysh al-Islam accused the Syrian government of launching a chlorine gas attack in the Damascus suburb of Douma. That attack was later found to have been staged, when reporters like Robert Fisk of The Independent visited the site of the area where the attack was alleged to have taken place and found no evidence of chemical weapons use. The fact that al Qaeda-linked militants launched the current attack would be expected to provoke a response from the U.S. government, given that the U.S. has used al Qaeda as an excuse to launch military operations without congressional approval around the world following the 9/11 attacks in 2001. Indeed, the group accused of launching the current attack is Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) — previously known as the al-Nusra Front, al Qaeda’s branch in Syria, prior to its name change last year. That name change allowed the group to evade the U.S. and Canadian governments’ terror watch list. MintPress recently reported that HTS had announced earlier this month that all Idlib rebels are now coordinating military operations through a “joint operations room” controlled by the al Qaeda-linked group. Prior to that frank admission from the group itself, the U.S. government as well as Western mainstream media had admitted that Idlib was dominated by al Qaeda-linked militant factions. A glaring double-standard Given that the group responsible for the recent chemical attack is linked to al Qaeda — and given the U.S.’ past, aggressive responses to alleged chlorine gas attacks on civilians in Syria — one would think that the Trump administration would be swift to condemn the recent chemical-weapons attack on Aleppo civilians. However, as MintPress has noted in the past, the Trump administration has essentially turned a blind eye to al Qaeda both in Syria and Yemen in order to further its geopolitical agenda in those countries. Idlib Syria White Helmets In Syria, the Trump administration has adopted a strategy of indefinite military occupation in Syria’s northeast, a major stronghold for extremist ‘rebel’ groups, that will not end as long as the “Iranian menace continues throughout the Middle East,” as National Security Adviser John Bolton put it this past July. Furthermore, the Trump administration – despite admitting last year that Idlib is the “largest al Qaeda safe haven” since 9/11 – rushed to defend the province from a Syrian military operation back in September, claiming al Qaeda-linked militants were “not terrorists, but people fighting a civil war against a brutal dictator.” ... For those who have followed the reporting of MintPress and other outlets on the White Helmets, the group’s silence is unsurprising in light of the fact that they have shown themselves to be embedded with HTS and other extremist militant groups on several occasions and were also founded and funded by Western governments in order to further the Western- and Israel-backed plan for regime change in Syria. Thus it seems that the White Helmets are concerned about Syrian civilians being targeted with chemical weapons only when blame can be placed on the Syrian government. https://www.mintpressnews.com/with-s...aleppo/252202/ |
