The Brutal Sanctions of America and Israel’s Aggression Forced President Bashar al-Assad to Surrender Before ISIS

A humanitarian crisis in the Middle East will
be as big as the Himalayas. When fifty million homeless and unemployed return
to their war-torn countries, who will feed them? How will their basic needs be
rebuilt? Who will build their homes? President Basher al-Assad won the war to
save Syria’s unity and sovereignty.
What was left for
President Bashar al-Assad in Syria to remain in power? His country had been reduced
to ruins by the US and its Arab allies, in its internal bloody civil war. The US
had imposed extremely inhumane economic sanctions on the Assad government. The country
was in total shattered, the economy was in ruins, Israel’s daily bombing of its
military, internal enemies attacking, ISIS attacks, the occupation of eastern
Syria by US forces, the occupation of the Golan Heights by Israeli and Zionist
forces, Syria was a small country. The Assad regime had been fighting on so
many fronts for 14 years. Under these circumstances, it was becoming
increasingly difficult for the Assad government to provide its people with the necessities
of life. The eastern part of Syria is occupied by American forces. And here were
the Syrian oil wells, Islamic militants who were fighting against the Assad
regime were extracting oil from these wells and selling it to Jordan, Türkiye,
and Israel, and buying weapons from the United States and Israel. These Islamic
militant groups included ISIS and extremist groups from North Africa. In the
Saudi-Houthis war, the Houthis were given weapons from here and the blame was placed on
Iran. Iran made the enemy of the Saudis, a religious war between Saudis Sunny
and Iran Shias. This was America’s pro-Israel Middle East policy.
American
intelligence knew that Iraq had a stockpile of deadly weapons. However, these
agencies did not know who had created the thirty thousand militants of ISIS, and on
which country’s soil they established? which country ordered 1,000 Toyota
pickup trucks for ISIS from Japan’s Toyota Company and who paid for it? Donald
Trump is right, that the American media is reporting misinformation, disinform, and fake
news. The Assad family has been in power in Syria for fifty years, and Israel has a
military occupation of the Syrian Golan Heights. Still, the Assad regime has
never committed terrorism against Israel to take back its territory. The Syrian
army has not attacked Israel. Syria had never joined the war against Israel
with Hamas and Hezbollah. The Chairmen and CEOs of American Jewish companies had
good relations with President Hafez al-Assad, they used to go to Damascus to
meet President Hafez al-Assad. High-ranking officials’ delegation of European
governments came to President Hafez al-Assad’s funeral, and a delegation from the
United States, led by Secretary of States Madeleine Al-Bright, went to the
funeral in Damascus. All American TV channels showed the Funeral of President
Hafez al-Assad live. Benjamin Netanyahu has a disease of bombing, his body itches,
a worm crawls in his brain, and he starts ordering bombs. The United States
treats Benjamin’s disease by providing F-35 aircraft and bombs.
Then why did Israel
bomb Syria every day and kill Syrian soldiers? Iran was helping the Assad
government in Syria against ISIS; Iranians were also killed in the war with ISIS. The
Iranians were not attacking Israel from Syria, although Israel had killed high-ranking
Iranian soldiers in Syria, Iran did not retaliate by attacking Israel. The United
States has also deployed nine hundred troops in Syria to pursue ISIS. America
has military bases in the Gulf. The armies of America, Britain, France, and Israel
have surrounded the Middle East from all sides. In the presence of the armies
of these countries, Israel has killed 55,000 innocent Palestinians with the
weapons they provided. It has destroyed Gaza and destroyed the economy of the
West Bank, and even today, these Western countries and America patronize Israel.
America has destroyed Iraq, Libya, and Syria only in the interest of Israel, it has changed regimes in these countries for Israel. America imposed brutal economic
sanctions that strangled humanity in anti-Israel countries, now Israel has
destroyed the economy of Lebanon. The US has imposed severe economic sanctions
on the Iranian people for forty years in the interests of Israel. There are
sanctions on Russia, and the US and NATO have embroiled Russia in a costly and
bloody war. The Syrian economy had life with the help of Iran and Russia, and
Syria’s trade with Lebanon. The consequences of wars brutal economic
sanctions by the United States, and the destruction of Israel’s Barbarian War have severely
affected the economy of this region. There is a famine of employment in Syria,
Libya, Iraq, Lebanon, and Yemen due to the American and Israel wars, this is not a
short-term problem, it is a long-term problem. And it will also have effects on
the economies of other countries in the region. The political gate that has opened
in Syria will now begin to open in other countries in the region, and the Arab
Spring will rise again in Egypt.
