UN Special Envoy to Syria Kofi Annan condemned as “unacceptable” a recent spate of violence between the Syrian regime and the rebel fighters, which is creating a growing refugee crisis just days before a planned ceasefire is supposed to begin.
Annan warned of a “alarming levels of casualties, refugees and displaced persons,” saying that there was a “surge in violence and atrocities” across the nation. It doesn’t actually seem that the overall rate of violence is as high as it was during the peak of fighting, but the fighting hasn’t calmed down as much as many had hoped, either.
Annan’s statement centered on urging the Assad government to implement the ceasefire, but it is the rebels that are declaring the ceasefire “doomed,” saying that they won’t provide any written guarantee that they will stop fighting at 6 AM April 12, when the ceasefire is supposed to be implemented.
Both sides seem to have been scrambling to make last minute gains before the fighting ends, but have been doing so with such seriousness that there are now serious doubts that the ceasefire will ever actually happen. Western officials are sure to spin this as solely a failure on the regime’s part, but many of the rebel factions don’t seem to have much stomach for a negotiated settlement either.
Look, if the friends of Syria were interested in peace they wouldn't pay these people to continue with the fight, if these rebels are interested in peace they would have sign their own drafted peace plan presenting it to Syrian government or whomever and let the peace a chance and star negotiating.
SO What is left.., for US and NATO to continue with their undemocratic reasoning, undemocratic demands for peace, if these "Friends of Syria" were interested in peace they would made it clear for the world that it is a legitimate demands by the Syrian government (whom they are not friends with) to ask for a signature from those whom wants to have a peace, otherwise look for Israel pushing into Lebanon and for Israel and US threatening Iranians by all means, and for Quatrains and Saudis regimes to continue their brutality toward people uprising in the area.
Since many of the "rebels" have said in the past they have no intention of negotiating then it's quite obvious where this is all headed.
