The Unraveling of the Syrian "Revolution."

Let whoever argues that Assad be overthrown, and lends their support to hard-line militant Islamists who are waging war not only on the his regime but the Syrian people as well, be quickly reminded of the consequences in Libya. A failed state, warlord state, a sanctuary for Al-Qaeda. A same scenario there ensued where the West legitimized terrorists and used them to overthrow then leader, Muammar al-Qaddafi.

In his 2007 article, The Redirection: Is the Administration's new policy benefiting our enemies in the war on terrorism?, Seymour Hersh, a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist revealed the conspiracy of the West, along with the cooperation of the feudal gulf monarchs, to destroy countries like Syria.

Western countries especially France, are leading the charge, calling for more aid to the rebels. The West is desperate, eager to destroy Syria and install client regime like it did in Libya, much to the desecration of the Syrian people. It has been two years and there is nothing significant to show for all their effort. The rebels are losing ground and losing it fast. At first, the West gave a timetable for what they perceived would be Assad's "inevitable" fall, yet as the days marched on, and so did his (Assad's) army, these prognostications became more and more laughable.

In a recent peace by PressTV, an Iranian official made note that the Syrian rebels were on their last legs. The true nature of the rebels have been shown. Their extremist, hard-line militant view of Islam is too much to bear. Their incompetence and lack of cohesion, coupled with a barbaric penchant for atrocities, (most if not all of which they are responsible for in Syria), will eventually make them (if it hasn't already) public enemy number one. Throughout Syria, the public is continually and increasingly rejecting their rule. They see clearly the choices before their very eyes: Either unite under the Assad regime (with all its faults) and work towards slow and progressive change, or live in the nightmare that is a failed state, filled with chaos, genocide, and perpetual human suffering at the hands of these rebels.

The True Nature of the Rebels
At the beginning of this Western-Saudi backed jihadist incursion by these Al-Qaeda-affiliated terrorists in Syria, these rebels were first called "freedom fighters" in the Western Media. I wonder why they are no longer being called that. Mountains upon mountains of evidence have been leaked, showing these rebels committing wars crimes on a mass scale. Numerous reports have come out (most notably by the U.N) revealing that the rebels are now using child soldiers and children as human shields. Many of these rebels are sympathizers of Al-Qaeda. In addition they also murder captives, or anyone that they suspect of being an Assad supporter, opposed to their position, etc.

In a recent editorial titled, An open letter to Syria's opposition: you have failed us, the author Jasmine Roman (a pseudonym for the writer), reveals the outright grisly reality of the rebels.

She states in her open letter to the opposition:

When you were given legitimacy by the international community, did you believe that that made you the "legitimate" representative of the Syrian people?

Have you ever thought how we, mainstream Syrians, view your statements and your inaction? That it is embarrassing and humiliating for us when you keep praising certain donors, then turn us into beggars as you plead for more humanitarian assistance, for international intervention and for heavy weaponry?

You know that many Syrians don't want Bashar Al Assad's regime, but have you approached us to ask what concrete and pragmatic political, economic or social reformative programmes we do want?

She continues...

When we critique the opposition, it is only because we need to have things right from the beginning, and you have put yourselves above criticism or accountability. You have taken on the same machinery and mindsets that the Baath regime has used. Your reactions to any analysis or criticism do not serve Syrians well. Nor do they help your own political future, in case you plan on having one.

Have you ever thought of the losses when you insist that the "revolution" will continue "even if half of the Syrians die"? When you say the president must go "regardless of the price"? Do I need to say that the price paid by all Syrians is already high and painful? ---An open letter to Syria's opposition: you have failed us

If this is any indication of the general feeling and consensus of the Syrian people, then the so-called revolution is over. The Syrian people have no interest in rule under these rebels. They lack a socio-economic, and political platform, never mind populist as Roman has clearly revealed. They are murderous, incompetent, and downright foul. All that awaits the Syrian people is death and destruction at the hands of these rebels. Yet unconditional support for these rebels by the West, despite these realities and the cry of the Syrian people, shows the depravity of the West. If this is their idea of freedom, it is safe to suffice, the world doesn't need nor want it. The conflict has been estimated to have taken 70,000 lives and counting with much more in casualties and refugees. 

The Solution 

Russian, China, and Iran should effectively continue to employ all efforts to abort any and all efforts by the West to destroy Syria. Anyone who knows the true nature of the civil war in Syria (something that the West itself started and is posing as the solution for) should keep re-instating the facts. As Bob Marley once made a stupendous point, evil doesn't take a day off, so neither should we. The Syrian people must unite together to sack the terrorists from their country in compliance with the Syrian army that is fighting desperately to save them and to save itself. 

The afro-middle eastern region cannot afford another crime against humanity like it did in Libya. Stopping the terrorists from taking Syria effectively halts the march of Western Imperialism in its tracks.
