RUSSIA INCREASES MILITARY BACK-UP IN SYRIA


In my opinion it took longer than expected. The US and the UK played too long cat-and-mouse in this and other countries which were no concern of theirs.

As far back as the destruction of the World Centre; Bush and Blair invaded illegally Afghanistan and fought the Taliban. As before they supported them and when Russia, fighting the Taliban, pulled out because they could not see any winning the fight; America changed their sites and attacked the Taliban. It took 10 years and hundred thousand of civilian lives as well as soldiers.

Now, they are pulling out and it was already reported that the Taliban retook some areas which were bitterly fought over and cleared.

At the same time the US and UK invaded illegally Iraq. Big outcry went across the world that Saddam Hussein was a dictator and has weapon-of-mass-destruction. War raged and people died and they brought down Saddam Hussein and his ruling party.

As before, it was reported, that there were no ISIS in Iraq but now it had a stronghold and the people are far worse off.  The WMD had never been found and British top scientists and weapon expert Dr Kelly lost his live, assumed murdered but classed as suicide. Because he stated that there are no WMD.

The US then supported the rebels in Syria fighting President Bashar Assad.  Eventually it turned out that they turned into a terrorist group Al Qaeda which partly turned into IS.

In 2012 IS started to kidnap journalists and aid workers which was kept from the public for a long time. Eventually, the news broke when IS started to behead them one by one and showed videos of it. They were US and UK people. Then it was discovered that they were held since 2012 and 2013.  Although both governments were aware of it the US still supplied ‘rebels’ with missiles and  the UK chemicals which can be used to produce chemical weapon.

The whole scenario came to a head when a chemical weapon was dropped on Ghouta a suburb of Damascus, in Syria. Mr Assad was accused of using chemical weapons which he denied. The US Secretary of State John Kerry was urging, with all his might, to attack Syria. UK Prime Minister David Cameron agreed and they were heading for a full out war, maybe even with chemical weapon.

In the eleven hours, so to speak, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov intervened and made Mr Assad to hand over all his stock of chemical weapons to be destroyed which was within a year.

An UN special team went to Syria and investigated.  As of today, the report was never published. It makes you wonder what is going on there. The UN supposed to be neutral and no matter which side dropped the weapon it should have been published.

It has now been revealed that ISIS has chemical to produce weapons and it is assumed about 20 tons of it. They are producing them and it is not known where the chemical came from; or at least so it had been said.

Prime Minister David Cameron started bombing the ISIS in 2014 even so the MPs voted against it. His decision could have wide reaching implication. Especially now that Russia started to get involved and President Vladimir Putin decided to increase military back-up of President Bashar Assad. Libya and Iran are also on his side.

It is hard to accept that America will not stop interfering in other countries and the reason for it; if American stops or slows down their armoury production their economy will go down too.

Since Sept 14, 2014 the US-led-coalition launched air raids. At the same time they are supplying 5,000 ‘moderate rebels’ to fight the IS on the ground of Syria.  There is no such thing as a ‘moderate rebel’. It is another smoke screen.
.
One news might be good in a strange way. el-Qaeda’s leader  Ayman al-Zawahiri decided to attack ISIS because their leader Abu Baker al-Baghdadi claimed to be the leader of all Muslims.  Everybody agrees that ISIS got out of hand.

So far 4million Syrian fled which is one of the largest exodus in modern times and 20,000 dead and it mainly increased since 2013 when the situation deteriorated.
A further 7,6million Syrians have been displaced within Syrian.

A report published by the UN in May 2015 stated an estimated loss in economy was $202billion. Looking at all these figures in human and financial loss emphasizes the madness of war.

The supporting Kurd militia seek to defend three autonomous enclosures in the north of Syria.

Already the last time, after the chemical weapon was dropped, John Kerry kept putting fuel to the fire by shouting about 1,500 people died even so the experts from the doctors who were there at the time said that it was around 500.  UK PM David Cameron also added by stating he was ready to send warships and air supplies. The Russian put their foot on the fuse which was slowly burning towards another World War.  The people, who always suffer most, kept holding their breath.

Now, instead of John Kerry having learnt his lesson keeps pushing it again to an all out confronting. When the Russian appeared on the scene to back-up Assad then John Kerry started to change his tune. He stated that a diplomatic solution is always best. He now will fly to Moscow to a meeting with the Russian government.

The US has about 50 million starving and homeless people but John Kerry managed for Congress to agree to $500million to supply the ‘moderate rebels’.

The UK has over one billion starving and homeless people and three million unemployed but there is hundreds millions available for war.

It is absolute lunacy and every one in the street agrees with the new Labour leader Mr Corbyn when he wants to stop war. Look at Switzerland. A neutral country and a fine example of prosperity; having only a reserve army.
