Russian ships could transport the most advanced air defense systems and technical specialists ("End the Lie" USA) to Syria
According to some reports, Russian warships, who arrived recently in Syrian territorial waters, were carrying onboard technical advisers who would assist the Syrian authorities in assembling the ultra-modern C-300 anti-aircraft missile systems.
This information comes from Syrian and Russian sources cited by the London-based Arab-language newspaper Al-Quds al-Arabi, who said that Moscow regards the West’s attack on Syria as a “red line” and which it will not tolerate in any way.
This happens at the time the United States transports the aircraft carrier George Bush to the coast of Syria and, reportedly, the League of Arab States is preparing a plan for introducing a no-fly zone over Syria, which may require American logistics.
The report says that against the background of puppet leaders of the countries that are members of the Arab League, Russia provides support to the Assad government, despite the constantly growing pressure from the West.
As a supplement to the C-300 missiles, the statement says, Russia is also installing modern radar systems at all vital industrial and military facilities in Syria.
Arutz Sheva (Channel 7, Israeli Radio and news site; approx. mixednews) reports that the S-300 system is considered one of the most powerful anti-aircraft missile systems available.
It also draws attention to the fact that its radar system is able to track 100 targets at the same time and fire individual targets at 12.
C-300 is characterized by a deployment time of no more than five minutes, and also does not require maintenance for long periods of operation.
The system will provide cover areas, both in the north and in the south of Syria, which in this case will be able to detect the movement of troops or air force in the direction of its borders.
Long-range anti-aircraft missiles were developed in the USSR in 1960-70. to protect industrial facilities and military bases from blows aviation and cruise missiles.
Reportedly, this system will be used to “prevent a strike from NATO or the US and the EU”, although, according to the latest reports, the possibility of an attack organized by the League of Arab States is also high.
It is also indicated that the system is capable of performing in many respects the function of tracking the Israeli military bases and the Turkish Incirlik used by NATO, which is likely to play a role in the event of the introduction of a no-fly zone.
Russia was planning to sell the C-300 system to Iran, but due to American and Israeli pressure, she refused her decision.
At the same time, it is also claimed that Iran paid for the Syrian system, and Arutz Sheva states: “It is also unknown whether some of the missiles reached Iran”, although it is obvious that this passage should be taken with some caution.
The stakes have risen significantly when the US embassy in Damascus recently urged American citizens to “leave” Syria “immediately”, and the Turkish government advised pilgrims to completely refrain from traveling through Syria.
Moreover, according to the Financial Times, French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said that “humanitarian corridors or humanitarian zones” could be established to protect the victims of the attacks.
According to Juppe, the issue will be further discussed by the foreign ministers of the European Union member countries at a meeting next month, although there are signs that preparations are already underway for such an operation.
Juppe said that full-scale military intervention on the agenda is not worth it, despite the fact that his own statements indicate the opposite.
“In response to the demands of the Syrian National Council, we will consider, especially with our partners from the EU, the possibility of launching humanitarian initiatives to alleviate the suffering of the population (Syria),” said Juppé.
Naturally, as we saw in the example of Libya, any “humanitarian initiatives” that create “humanitarian corridors or humanitarian zones” actually require full-scale military intervention, which will undoubtedly lead to countless civilian deaths.
More importantly, any intervention, whatever it may be, will inflame the rage of the Russians and Iranians, which are likely to cause a larger conflict.
It can be argued that such a plan was initially - first to enter Syria under humanitarian pretexts, which, as I mentioned earlier, would force the Iranians to retaliate and thus justify the Western states demanding an attack on Iran.
If Iran tries to help Assad defend itself against external invasion, Israel may no longer need irrefutable evidence to justify a massive attack on Iran, and the United States will surely follow his example.
This is truly a hell of a scenario, provided that Russia appears on the side of Syria and Iran, most likely involving China, recently spurred on by the position of the United States in the South China Sea dispute.
