Turkey plays US dangerous game on Syria

By on August 1, 2012 in Arab Spring, TV

Published on Aug 1, 2012 by PressTVGlobalNews.
For more than a year, the deadly unrest in Syria has brought about more questions than answers but what’s definitely clear is that civilians have been the main victims of what the armed opposition says is a government crackdown and the government says is a foreign-backed attempt to destroy the country.

    SYRIA-VIDEO-GRAPHIC ! – This is where your Tax Dollars go: Al-CIA-da Executing Berri Tribal Elders
    NATO rats including formerly Libya – employed Al-CIA-da and Turkey sponsored FSA terrorists kidnap elder civilians of one of the biggest tribes in Aleppo countryside, the Berri’s, which are loyal to the Assad Government, torture and then execute them in cold blood, chanting: ‘The FSA forever !’

    Indeed they did – The family made a treaty with the FSA that they would be left alone if they didn’t fight, both sides agreed to it but the Berri family broke it and killed from behind some of the FSA commanders.

    Treachery for which some of the family were executed and some are being held for trial after Assad goes.

    I have not seen any denial of this story at all, anywhere.

    The scenario is very clear. If Aleppo falls into the hands of the opposition and the Syrian Army fails to recapture it, it will turn into Benghazi II. The transitional government will be deployed there and will demand help from NATO and Western governments. Aleppo will become a key point and a move will be made on Damascus once again.

      Assad could avoid all of this if he allowed true elections under international supervison.

      And if a majority of Syrain elected him and his cult, then Mabrook.

        “Assad could avoid all of this if he allowed true elections under international supervison.”

        Or if he agreed to crawl up Israels nice warm butt and make it feel good like Obama, Romney, and the US Congress have.

        Might be kinda crowded in there though with the Americans, British, French, Germans, Canadians and Australians all fighting for space and attention.

     A report says Turkey has supplied the foreign-sponsored armed groups in Syria with surface-to-air missiles.

      This a good thing. They need to defend the civilians from the aerial bombing.

    “A report published by the Turkish newspaper Idinik said Blackwater agents have been operating at the border area and that the firm’s mercenaries are being deployed to Syria via the Turkish province of Hatay.

    Syrian security forces in the western city of Homs have also said that the Israeli spy agency, Mossad, the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and Blackwater are involved in the country’s unrest.

    The idea of Blackwater’s role in the Syrian unrest developed after Egyptian writer Mohammad Husayn Haykal said that the firm has more than 6,000 mercenaries operating against Damascus inside and outside the country.

    Haykal described Blackwater’s activity inside Syria and along the country’s borders as a bid to buy time for Israel and to turn the Arab-Israeli conflict into a sectarian conflict between the Shia and Sunni Muslims.

    Syrian expert in strategic affairs Salim Harba has also said that an anti-Damascus center has been established in Qatar to bring together US, French, Qatari, Saudi, and Israeli intelligence agents as well as members of Blackwater, and the Syrian opposition.

    The advanced weaponry used by the armed gangs in Syria, the presence of foreign mercenaries among the rebels, and documents leaked on the involvement of Blackwater in the crisis in Syria indicate that the so-called security firm is after fueling violence in the Arab nation to help the US topple the Assad government and thus more efficiently protect its interests and those of Tel Aviv in the region.”

    blackwater and al qaida “freedom fighters”, what could be more israeli-american than that?

    (video of the crime – warning, graphic – along with interview of mark glenn on these and other war crimes israel’s proxies are committing and the use of turkey to give a muslim cover for these crimes)

    “The two-minute video, posted on YouTube and reported by the AFP, shows armed men killing elder members of the Syrian al-Berri tribe.

    Amnesty International has already warned about reports of “summary executions” in Aleppo, calling them serious violations of international law.

    This comes as the Syrian government earlier said that the armed rebel groups backed and funded by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey are committing “horrific crimes” against civilians in the capital, Damascus, and the city of Aleppo.

    In two letters addressed to the head of the UN Security Council and the UN secretary general, the Syrian Foreign Ministry said the rebels backed by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey are using civilians in Aleppo as human shields, and killing anyone who does not support their crimes.

    Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Muallem also said on July 29, “We believe that all the anti-Syrian forces have gathered in Aleppo to fight the government… and they will definitely be defeated.”

    Mark Glenn, from the Crescent and Cross Solidarity Movement, told Press TV in a recent interview that the United States and its allies, as well as the Tel Aviv regime “want the same kind of instability, chaos, civil war and bloodshed that took place in Libya to take place in Syria.”

    “According to reports coming from Syria, the army attacked a rebel-held school in Aleppo’s Salahuddin district, which was being used as a command center, on Wednesday and inflicted heavy losses on anti-Damascus armed groups.

    Press TV’s correspondent in Syria says calm has returned to Aleppo and Syrian forces have cleared most areas of the city of armed gangs although clashes are still continuing on the outskirts.

    Sausan Ghosheh, the spokeswoman for the UN observer mission in Syria, has said that anti-government rebels operating in Aleppo are in possession of heavy weapons, including tanks. Some reports also suggest that the rebels have obtained nearly two dozen shoulder-launched Sam missiles.

    The terrorist Free Syrian Army has vowed to step up its attack in Aleppo by targeting the city’s security centers.

    Meanwhile, a video has been circulated online showing the execution by rebel gunmen in Aleppo of four supporters of President Assad’s government.

    Armed groups fighting against the Syrian government have been operating in Aleppo since July 20 after they were defeated in the capital, Damascus, and were forced to flee.”

    I put some links there of myself on Press t.v. for the benefit of Roy who believes that I have some sectarian problem with Press t.v. rather than what I already said – that is Press t.v. is not at all reliable for reporting on Syria or indeed what goes in Iran.

    Jonathon needs to contact Press t.v. and do his job as a “truth seeker” and out the zionist agent.

    There are Sunnis working for Press t.v. such as Lauren Booth and Yvonne Ridley and many more.

    I also used to be on ahlubayt t.v.which is a shia t.v. station. I actually do not like doing live t.v. interviews at all, I am really not comfortable talking on camera, I try not to do it now.

    “There are Sunnis working for Press t.v. such as Lauren Booth and Yvonne Ridley and many more.”

    All good people despite of their religion , their sect, their nation work for Press tv. Honest people dare to face cameras, Sectarians don’t.
    Sectarians are working now for bloomberg and fox news.

    The Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) says it has taken control of the Semzinan district in the Turkey’s southeastern province of Hakkari.

    The development comes two days after a Turkish soldier was killed and seven others injured during an attack allegedly carried out by the PKK members in the western province of Izmir on August 9.

    The Turkish army has been involved in a ground and air operation on Semzinan over the past several days.
