Two weeks after the ceasefire actually ended in Syria, the Obama Administration has announced it is withdrawing from talks related to the process, and are eager to make sure everyone knows they hold Russia wholly responsible for the failure of the effort.
The ceasefire was meant to provide a 7-day pause to separate US-backed rebels from the Nusra Front. It lasted seven days, though no separation ever occurred, and Syria’s government withdrew complaining Nusra and its allies never stopped attacking them during the period.
This separation, which again never happened, was supposed to lead to joint US-Russian attacks on Nusra. Instead, Russia and Syria have been attacking Nusra without the US, which has not only refused to join them, but has condemned the attacks.
Indeed, the US threatened all last week to withdraw from the talks to punish Russia for the airstrikes on Nusra, and say their patience with Russia “has run out” today. The Russian government expressed regret over the end of the talks, but insisted that the ceasefire efforts are untenable at the moment, with so many rebel factions backing Nusra so heavily.
The Nusra Front was for years an affiliate of al-Qaeda, and while they “separated” this summer, they retain extremely close ties. The US warned, during the ceasefire, that moderate rebels would face major consequences if they didn’t distance themselves from Nusra, and while literally no one did so, the US seems to have done nothing about it.
I don’t blame the cease fire failure on Russia , I blame it all on the United States They did this in Iraq and Libya Now they wish to do it in Syria .The United States has supported violent extremists Muslims every time . So naturally they would support AlQaeda , Alnusra and ISIS . These are the winners in Islam . When Muslims start fighting they usually kill more Muslims than enemies . They have to kill their apostates first to be certain every Muslim is on their side .
Anyone who blames Russia is either blindly accepting the media’s blatant lies or is hopelessly unfair in going along with OBVIOUS USA war crimes! The USA has been supporting cut throat mercenaries(“terrorists”) four FIVE years in Syria while Russia has only been attacking these same groups for a little over a year. It is easy to see why the USA would blame Russia for almost everything- Russia is eliminating the USA’s Trojan Horse “Rebels”(mercenaries) and trying to protect Syria’s territorial integrity AT THE REQUEST OF ASSAD. The USA has no legal right to be in Syria in the first place! That is the bottom line here. Russia was asked to intercede by the Assad government. If Americans knew the REAL truth about what “their ” government is and has been doing in Syria many of them would be shocked and angered I am sure. Whether they can avoid denial is another question!
Might wanna tell the readers here the REAL REASON that hostilities resumed, and it wasn’t Russia… On Sept 10, Kerry and Laurov announced a ceasefire and a cessation of hostilities. But on Sept 19 the U.S. bombed the Syrian army Base on Tharda Mountain killing 60 Syrian troops and wounding 100, but almost immediately claimed it was a mistake… Hours later Syria called off its cessation of bombing and the situation deteriorated further from there… into all out war… Google it, you’ll see.
“U.S. bombed the Syrian army Base on Tharda Mountain killing 60 Syrian
troops and wounding 100, but almost immediately claimed it was a
mistake…”
Taking a page from the false flag Israeli attack on the USS Liberty(1967)!
I do love the way that even amongst ‘alternative’ writers like on this site,the white-washing of an event out of the corporate news has the effect of erasing it from everyone’s minds.
From the Syrian/Russian perspective, not only was a long-standing Syrian Army position bombed and 60-80 soldiers killed, but the bombing was coordinated with an ISIS attack only minutes later. And lately, the USAF has been taking down bridges in the same area to protect ISIS from Syrian army counterattacks. All of this in an area where no US proxies are involved, so there’s no reason for the US to be bombing except as support to ISIS operations.
Would you have a cease-fire involving a country that openly admits now that it is arming Al-Qaeda in Allepo and which coordinates with ISIS? As the old American Indians used to warn …. the Great Chief in Washington speaks with forked tongue.
The Russians and the Syrians should make the “faits accompli” and finish off the neocons plans to destroy Syria. Maybe the Anglo-Zionist-Lobby and mass media will bark like a rabid dog, but in the end they cannot do anything to prevent their islamists terror legions to be smashed by the Russians and the Syrian Arab Army unless these warmongers want to risk a fullscale nuclear war which probably would also end their mean existences.
Because let us hope that one thing is clear also to these lunatics: half a dozen nuclear war heads from the newest generation of Russian submarines detonating a the East coast of the US will also destroy the hideouts of the warmongers who always in history used to send other mothers sons into death and war but since the nuclear bomb will also end up the same way they usually only casted to the ordinary people and subjects!
I truly believe, our leaders, Obama, both parties, both candidates, our Military Industrial Complex…..I truly believe this country has completely lost its mind.
We are led by complete fools, assholes and crazy people.
The U.S.A is using Syria as a distraction keeping them engaged in a proxy war we don’t even really care about and there killing off our enemies in the process.In the meantime we’re building NATO BASES AND missile defense systems along it’s borders.It’s actually very simple the Russians think they’re winning something that was there’s all along.They’ve had a naval base in Syria for decades we have several in the region.You can’t win your house if you already own it…They’ve been duped into thinking they won something they’ve possessed the whole time.Simple as that…USA
The nation hasn’t lost its mind, but it HAS lost(if it ever had!) a moral and legal accountability of the actions of its “leaders”!
No actually, we are led by corrupt people who are very good at stealing everything they want. They are neither fools nor crazy people. I guess one out of three ain’t bad. 🙂 But, don’t underestimate them nor doubt that they are very good at ripping the rest of us off for huge piles of money.
“America blames Russia” is definitely the “Dog-Bites-Man” headline of the year for 2016.
