Crocodile tears of the "international community"

50
The UN representative on humanitarian issues, John Ging, made a report in which it noted that Syria had been thrown back tens of years ago in its development. He stressed that many streets and houses were destroyed, and they could no longer be repaired, but only rebuilt. Infrastructure objects are destroyed, enterprises are looted. According to him, schools and hospitals in Syria are not working.

Only one “forgot” to mention this UN employee - that this situation is developing in those areas where the so-called “opposition” was rampant. He did not notice that in most of the territory of Syria, life goes on as usual; children go to schools, hospitals treat patients, including those who have suffered at the hands of gangster mercenaries. The government is making truly gigantic efforts to, in spite of the difficult situation in the country, mitigate the suffering of the inhabitants.

Predators who want to take over the country have developed such an information strategy: at first, the structures dressing in clothes of “neutrality” speak of the suffering of the people, but they don’t say a word about those who really are to blame for this. Moreover, such reports contain hints, not even too hidden, of the guilt of the state. Here, in this statement of Ging, which says partial truth, there is a hint of this kind: “Heavy military equipment fired at residential areas: Tanksartillery. " But Mr. Ging “did not notice” traces of terrorist activity, which the Syrians walk every day. Neither the blown up building of the General Staff directly in the most prominent place of Damascus - on the Umayyad Square, nor the apartment buildings that were badly damaged by the explosion of a car bomb on the busiest street - As-Saura (Revolution), nor what the space behind one of the largest turned into after the recent terrorist attack buildings in the Syrian capital - the Central Bank.

And then other structures are connected that are not neutral at all. They use such reports for their own purposes - in order to put the blame on the Syrian leadership and monstrously distort the truth, thereby justifying the help to the bandits. Oh, yes - not the bandits, but the “peaceful rebels”!
There is a real speculation of the sufferings of the people. The Western media blame the Syrian leadership for everything, but they don’t talk about the growing support for gangs, supplying them weapons and other types of assistance. They shout, "Guard, burn, burn," and pour gasoline into the fire to make them even more blazing. To drop Syria in development no longer for dozens, but for hundreds of years ...

Under such an “umbrella” gangsters continue killing and destruction.

Again, their target was a suburb of Damascus Jaraman. On April 25, city halls and schools were shelled from mortars. 12 people died, about 30 injured. Among the victims are pupils.

In the village of Slanfa, in the province of Latakia, gangsters bombarded residential buildings, as a result of which one person died. There are wounded.

Terrorists continue their criminal plan to destroy national cadres. In the area of ​​Baramke, not far from the center of the capital, an explosive device was placed under the car of an employee of the Ministry of Electric Power Industry, engineer Muhammad Abdel-Wahhab Hasan, who was engaged in the issues of advanced training of employees in the energy sector. As a result of the explosion, an engineer was injured, from which he soon died.

Earlier, terrorists killed an employee of the Ministry of Social Affairs of the SAR, Ali Ballan. He was engaged in receiving and distributing humanitarian aid, including that sent from Russia. On one fateful day, he sat in a cafe near the Mezze motorway, where he was shot by criminals. This atrocity showed that gangsters are unprofitable when humanitarian aid is provided to the Syrian people.

Recently, the party of humanitarian aid from the Russian Orthodox Church was brought to Syria. She was accompanied by a representative of the Patriarch, who said that their column was twice fired upon by the militants - April 14 and 20. This was told by Archpriest Nikolai Balashov. But the “world community” is silent about this, although shelling of columns with humanitarian aid is a serious war crime of the so-called “opposition”.

Another information attack against Syria is connected with the UN special envoy Lakhdar Al-Ibrahimi. At first, he, as a capricious young lady, declared that he could resign, like his predecessor Kofi Annan. Then he disavowed his resignation letter - said he was (well, windy head!). But, 19 of April, speaking at a closed meeting of the UN Security Council on the Syrian issue, made a completely different statement (already pretty beaten): it turns out he should not leave at all, unlucky mediator, but ... of course, ATS President Bashar Al-Assad. And not just to leave, but to give up their legitimate right to run for the presidency in the upcoming elections in 2014.

This statement at a closed meeting became known only after a few days. The Syrian Foreign Ministry reacted to such words properly: it is nothing but a rude interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign state. Only the Syrian people have the right to choose their leaders. If the UN special envoy wants to continue his mediation mission, then he should be neutral, - the Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized in a statement.

I would like to ask a simple question: who, where and when from the outside forbade anyone to stand for election in his own country? Those who care so much about “democracy” and “human rights” should have known for a long time that the right to elect and be elected is sacred and inalienable.
Whether or not Bashar Al-Assad will be elected president is only for the Syrian people and no one else. This is democracy. But the fighters for it are now trying to present the situation in such a way that, they say, Al-Asad does not want to leave, and because of this, all the troubles.

But the fact that such “proposals” arise, which are soft blackmail, indicates that the West is afraid of the popularity of Bashar Al-Assad. It would seem, wait for the elections, and let the opposition also nominate their candidate. Already people decide who to choose. But for some reason such a democratic decision does not appeal to those whose interests are represented by Lakhdar Al-Ibrahimi.

And without giving the Syrian people their legitimate right to choose their own destiny, without terrorist threats - all the lamentations about the sufferings of people, that the country has been thrown back and much has been destroyed are meaningless. They are nothing more than the tears of a crocodile that cries when it eats a person.

    Well, if we cannot supply weapons to Syria so as not to violate international law, then what prevents our country from helping the Syrian side in information terms, we need to disseminate as much information as possible about the situation in the country from the point of view of the Syrian government, and this should be done actively and skillfully, in this way we can turn the opinion of the "international community" ...

      This is prevented by the tolerance of the KREMLIN-strange situation.
      Most countries in the Gulf directly violate all international rules by supplying weapons and militants to Syria.
      And in KREMLIN, as before, they talk about some kind of dialogue with the ARMED OPPOSITION of mercenaries — it resembles a conversation between the deaf and the blind.

          And what, in your opinion, should Putin, like this clown Khrushchev, pound his boots and threaten to show his mother Kuzkin to everyone? It is better to bend your line confidently and consistently. The most important help - political - Russia has already provided to Syria, vetoing a resolution at the UN. I think Russia would not veto; China would not veto. Only Russia's position today does not allow NATO to directly intervene. As for the supply of weapons: warships, after all, go to Syria. Most likely, they supply weapons, spare parts, etc.

          And who said that we are not helping?
          There is diplomatic support. (Our "veto" on anti-Syrian projects).
          Information support is. (Russia Tudey to the rescue).
          Probably there is technical support (various freights of unknown contents go through the same Tartus)
          There is probably logistic support (intelligence sharing, which is very plausible, because the military is reluctant to lose the Navy base)
          There is probably support from volunteers. (Various rumors pass through the Cossacks and acquaintances of the FSB officers, but I won’t tell about reliability).
          The last three of course are just "PROBABLY", but we are officially neutral and do not take part in the war ...

      Money for the restoration of Chechnya? Let the Hero of Russia Kadyrov work out - he introduces his nukers as peacekeepers, there is a Lebanese experience: "The work and normal rest of our military in the tent city will be guarded by ours too - two battalions -" East "and" West. "A few years ago it was impossible I would imagine that the concept of "ours" began to refer to the Chechens with weapons in their hands. And there was no question that they would guard the peace and work of the Russian military. Probably, these are the most famous battalions in the modern military history of the Russian Armed Forces For those who do not follow the situation in the Caucasus very closely, these are two battalions of the Ministry of Defense from Chechnya, and only Chechens serve there. The best and the best of the best. Something similar, when Chechens were guarding important Russian objects and persons, was in the century before last, then an exclusively Chechen military unit guarded the peace of the royal family. And how it guarded! Almost a hundred years have passed, and this is still remembered not only by historians. Ode in the structure of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the formation of military units, consisting mainly of the indigenous inhabitants of Chechnya (including Russians), began. The command of the first special-purpose company was entrusted, probably quite naturally, to Dzhabrail Yamadaev. A small unit immediately showed excellent coordination, excellent combat training and gave results that were superior to the results of another regiment. In March 2001, Dzhabrail Yamadayev died in battle and was awarded the title of Hero of Russia posthumously. The battalion commander was appointed the brother of the deceased Hero, Sulim Yamadayev, who took an active part. in the hostilities for the complete cleansing of the mountainous regions of the republic from the Basayev and Khattab bands. In parallel, the formation of the "West" battalion, which was originally commanded by Said-Magomed Kakiyev, was a truly legendary personality. The detachment subordinate to him has always been distinguished by desperate courage and high combat skill.http: //www.rg.ru/2003/2006/10/livan.html

Maybe because he offered to assign Kadyrov the title of "Honored Fighter"? But this is a joke. But to entrust him with the formation of international brigades (not only from Chechnya), the events of 08.08.08/XNUMX/XNUMX showed that what a "wild division" of volunteers from the North Caucasus was quickly going to pile on Mishiko, only she was not allowed into the "case".

      For good, Russia needs troops to enter Syria under the UN flag.


      Yesterday, the program "Vesti Nedeli" had a report on the recently created MTR (Special Operations Forces) in Russia for illegal "work" abroad (by the way, the idea of ​​Kvachkov).
      It is important to understand that at the present time practically no state conducts intelligence in the usual sense of this concept. Today is the time for network-centric military conflicts, the essence of which is that each unit that intends to collide with the enemy, initially carries out its reconnaissance, and immediately after identification it deals an operational strike, using all available means or in the achievement zone.
      The entire combat zone is completely covered by a reconnaissance network, which includes all its types, including radar, acoustic, radio engineering, and visual. In this network, each unit is able to find the information that it needs, then process it in detail and strike at the enemy, destroying it. In the event that the unit does not have sufficient forces and means, a strike is delivered by military aircraft, artillery or any other means of destruction. It is when using such tactics that the forces of special operations are one of the main elements of warfare. Often, units not only start a war, but also end it, that is, they not only kill the enemy with available weapons or improvised means, but also use special subversive units that are part of the special operations forces, and which carry out subversive activities on enemy territory.
      Therefore, if a decision is made on a military presence in Syria, they will first of all be involved, as stated in the report - "men who do not need to train their bodies to relax on the beach."

It would be relevant, under the pretext of protecting the citizens of Russia (there are plenty of them there, although in my opinion one is enough) to introduce the marines. And to the screeching of cichvilized idiots, remind about Grenada. "Operation Urgent Fury is a US military operation to invade Grenada in 1983, with the formal goal of protecting American citizens and restoring stability to the country at the request of the Organization of American States."

    Published a video of one of the attacks in Damascus, shot in the local market. The girl sings a song for the cameraman with a camera, but does not have time to finish the verse - the terrorists shell the market with mortars.
    As a result of direct landmines entering the crowd of people, there are victims, including among children. However, it is reported that this particular girl survived.
    It is known that rebels opposing government forces in Syria regularly bombard markets and even schools, as well as blow up cars in crowded places.

    Several dozen Canadians from the Middle East are fighting in Syria, said Michael Piers, assistant director of the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service.
    According to him, Canadian citizens are joining both opposition forces and extremist groups associated with al-Qaeda, and government forces. “Sometimes they change sides: for example, they join the detachment of the Free Syrian Army, and then they switch to extremists from Jebhat al-Nusra,” the National Post quoted Peyrs as saying. “It's hard to keep track of them.”

    Various EU countries have previously stated that they have data on the participation of Europeans in the Syrian conflict. So, the Royal College in London in early April published a study in which it stated that Europeans joined the opposition forces in Syria. At the same time, the figure of 600 mercenaries was named.

    The same figure is contained in the report of the European Parliament, prepared by the EU counter-terrorism coordinator Gilles de Kershov. In particular, he noted that even if these people are not killed in Syria, they will be dangerous upon their return to Europe.

    However, similar statements have not been exhausted.

    The head of counterintelligence in Germany, Hans-Georg Maasen, said that a flood of radically-minded German Islamists poured into Syria. He noted that apparently the Islamists from Europe in 2013 will focus on Syria.

    Then the first information came from inside - from one of the Europeans fighting in Syria, a mercenary from France.

    A former French army officer, whose name is not called, noted that about 200 Belgian citizens are fighting on the side of anti-government forces in Syria. According to him, romantically inclined Europeans quickly lose their desire to fight, they become outcasts and find themselves in a difficult situation.

    These reports alarmed the Belgian authorities. Following the statements of the former French officer, the burgomaster of the cities of Flanders gathered in Antwerp for an emergency meeting to discuss how to prevent new Belgian citizens from entering Syria.
