Syria: Who is Responsible for the Massacre?

There is no doubt that the roots of the current crises go back to the barbaric and absolutely unprovoked armed incursion of the USA to Iraq that exasperated the situation in Middle East and brought the region to its sorrowful state. “That is why roots of this crises go back to that war which divided Iraq into confessional grounds and partly affected the situation in Syria, that made it easier to stir up interconfessional strife in Syria,” – declared the legally elected Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

The second and less important turning point was support officially provided by the Western countries to terrorists in Afghanistan, in the beginning of 1980s, who called them “freedom fighters”. Washington and reactionary Arabic regimes of the Gulf did everything to help Afghan guerillas, trained them to be the terrorists who are now ravaging Syria, Iraq and other Arab countries. To remind you, it was then that the Soviet troops were actively trying to halt terrorism from taking root.

Further, in 2006, the Islamic State of Iraq appeared in Iraq, which was supported by the U.S. Government and, after uniting with the Islamic State of Syria, created a terrorist organisation that is now known as the Islamic State. “All these factors as a whole, – said Bashar al-Assad, – generated conditions for strife supported by the Western countries, financed by the states of the Gulf, especially by Qatar and Saudi Arabia, logistically assisted by Turkey, regarding the fact that Erodagan supports the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood and, consequently, believes that changing the situation in Syria, Egypt and Iraq would mean the creation of a new sultanate – not related to the Ottoman but to the Muslim Brotherhood, which would spread from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea under the control of Erodagan.”
