Terrorism Takes a Roundtrip

After conceding of al- Rihaniyya and Bab al- Hawa explosions few months ago, the Islamic state in Iraq and Levant (ISIL) threatened the Turkish government that  it will  launch a series of suicide attacks in Ankara and Istanbul.

It seems clearly that the threat of (ISIL ) is so strong and serious. For this so-called state  aims at setting  foot on the land of Islam in Turkey    to disseminate  the  good message  of  the Islamic  religion and  to  cleanse the  land of  infidels and raiders.  The thing which made the Turkish government take many precautions where it closed the crossings after the arrival of terrorists to the ingresses of their country on the way back. Those thousands of terrorists are the very same thugs who were sent by Turkey into Syria to kill the Syrians.

On the other hand, no one can deny the reckless policy of  Erdogan who aided and abetted those  terrorists  who have no religion or morals. Erdogan did  his best in intervening  in the  Syrian affairs and  provided safe haven and training  place for  the  terrorists , but he  didn’t realize that terrorism will  boomerang against his country. The one who supports and  sponsors  terrorism must  face the music.

Regarding  the oil and gas countries who have invested their money in terrorism to kill  the Syrian people, they actually  will  reap  disasters for their countries.  Their money will go down the drain , and what they didn’t  lose on gambling tables they will  lose on  the  destructive  investment namely, terrorism.

Also, there are Gulf rulers who monopolized the wealth and resources  of their countries and  they were forking out money on terrorism to kill the Arab citizens instead of  investing it in the interest of their people. They provided a tiptop  service to Israel and America, and they are but lackey mercenaries afraid  of  sacrificing   their  thrones.

Saudi Arabia and Qatar are  integral part of the war against  Syria,  and at the same  time they are accomplices  to Erdogan government. Besides, we must not forget the role of Jordan  which is known  historically  in playing behind the scenes and  now it is time to pay the bill.

The proof of this is what the Jordanian Foreign Minister  said in his speech at  the 68th session of the General Assembly of the United Nations that the war on terrorism is not a war against  Syria only because the terrorists will  ultimately return to the countries where they come  from.

In  spite of Syria’s clear  commitment to a political solution in words  and deeds, the Syrian  government  will not cede  its territories  vulnerable  to terrorism and aggression without taking all means to expel the terrorists and protect its cities and citizens to  reach  a political solution that   ensures  security and peace  nationwide .
