The Obama Administration’s decision to get on board with Russian pushes for a negotiated settlement to Syria’s Civil War took a serious hit today, with rebels reiterating their opposition to talks.
Najib Ghadbian, a representative of one of the US-backed rebel factions, insisted from their view “it seems like there’s really nothing new,” adding that they stand by their previous statements that no talks could ever include Assad or anyone else “with blood on their hands.”
The Syrian National Coalition (SNC) issued a similar statement, saying they would “welcome” talks, but only after the Syrian government gave them everything they wanted beforehand – the unilateral ouster of Assad and the resignation of the entire government.
Secretary of State John Kerry insisted the US-Russian plan will focus on the previous Geneva deal, which called for a transitional government but didn’t mention what would happen to Assad. The deal was reached under Kofi Annan, and has been condemned by the rebels since. That seems unlikely to change.
Of course they refuse. It does not matter. The US can control their ammo and replacement arms. They can't fight without outside support. The war is a proxy war, and ends when those who pay for it say it ends.
So the "rebels" who the US aids and supports doesn't want to listen to the ones pulling its strings? How about not robbing the US taxpayers to fund these killers? That would bring their so-called "freedom" movement to a halt wouldn't it?
Najib Ghadbian, a representative of one of the US-backed rebel factions said there would be no talks with people with blood on their hands. Does that include himself and all so called rebels in Syria? They have lots of blood on their hands too. US should cut all the help to these terrorists – it is obviously not worth it. You can not buy long term loyalties from religious fanatics. US, British, France and all others should cut off those bloody money pipelines for these people and within few months there would be peace in Syria.
But is the peace in Syria important to these terrorist supporters? I doubt it.! They are just witnessing turning of the tide in Syria fight with international terrorists and are afraid it will be Russia who wins after Syrian government finally defeats the bandits.
All it takes to produce peace is for Obama to lift his red phone and order the operation to be closed down.
We would not know and it would drift off the front pages of the media, but that is what would have happened as peace breaks out.
But he won't because these paramilitaries and secular Assets are the means by which he gets what he and his regime want.
Ha ha haaaa! The US hasn't painted itself into a corner. It has painted itself into the middle of the room, and the house is on fire.
The US did not "get on board" a Russian push for a settlement. After making US Secretary of State John Kerry wait for three hours, Putin told him in no uncertain terms what Russia had told Hilary Clinton; go into Syria or Iran and Russia will turn it into the new Vietnam and wear the US down on a war of attrition that the US lacks the resources to survive.
In other words, Putin built a brick wall in front of the US war machine and Kerry made that lame-ass statement about going along with the Russian plan to save face. The so-called Syrian rebels, actually a hired mercenary army, take the blame for the Russian plan failing while Obama and Kerry try to get the war train back on the tracks headed for Damascus, despite the Russian warning.
Najib Ghadbian is a professor at the University of Arkansas who has written articles for Qatar's Al Jazeerah for ten years. He is currently on paid leave, probably financed by Qatar, and wouldn't know a "rebel" if he saw one.
These terrorists who pretend they have the Syrian people's best interests in mind, these phony Syrian ex-pats with their terrorist army needs to be strung upside down by the nutsack.
All these people – it's the same in Britain – have all been in exile for20 -30, in some cases over 30 years and are in academic jobs which the local residents in that disciple regard as "plum" and wish they had.
So how is this possible?
That spells "Assets" and it was fixed for them to get the job.
As above in their originating country the population is likely to react violently to them as collaborators with a fortein power.
Jct: Fascinating. US-backed Rebels reject US-Russia talks! Har har har har har har.
NBC just did a propaganda piece for war. The scoundrel Erdogan of Turkey presents a likely phoney claim of chemical weapons use with sketchy evidence. Not one word about the UN claim two days earlier that it is the rebels using chemical weapons in an effort to get Obama to cross his own red line.
The U.S. major media is a propaganda machine for continuous war.
