Better Late than Never!
According to different media outlets, the US State Department is considering the enlisting of the so-called “al-Nusra front” on terrorism list. Good news! Such an enlisting raises some questions about the said front itself, not to mention the indications of such an enlisting. According to press reports, al-Nusra terrorist group is al-Qaeda affiliated one, using every heinous means of slaughter, suicide bombing, and heads cutting. This is al-Qaeda method of arbitrary brutal cleansing of human beings worldwide! Al-Qaida, first nourished and mushroomed by the US itself in a bid to fight the former Soviet Union in Afghanistan, perpetrated the heinous Sept. terrorist attacks against the US itself. Al-Nusra, nourished and mushroomed by petrodollars is expected soon to carry out more ferocious terrorist attacks against western interests.
A leopard can’t change its leather; so terrorist groups are soon to target every civilization and humanity. Terrorism is a common enemy for all, like epidemic diseases, natural disasters, global warming ; it is a human and intellectual desertification. Hopefully, the US State Department is indeed to consider all of its anti-Syria stances in light of the ongoing and possible worldwide future big threats to be caused by the foreign-backed terrorists in Syria.
Our brothers in humanity worldwide, especially in Europe, should contemplate and control the damage to their daily life, culture, and societies, in case such organizations of terror and hatred were to spread- and indeed they are just in their sleeping rooms! So, the need is dire for their governments to stop breastfeeding the armed terrorists in Syria. Human life is sacred; and as to spare the more of human lives, western countries, the US should refrain from fuelling the crisis in Syria. Further, they should order their intelligence, spies, and petrodollars to cease their frenetic attacks, including the media ones of fabrications and distortion.
Hopefully, the soon-to-be former Secretary of State, Mrs. Clinton, who earlier called on the extremists and terrorists in Syria as not to lay down their arms and as not to accept dialogue offers, is -through such enlisting- to have thoroughly understood that terrorism is ,according to the US yearly congress report, the “premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against non-combatant targets by sub-national groups or clandestine agents, usually intended to influence an audience,” against Syria, which according to a statement in 2002 by US State Department official, Richard W. Erdman, the chief State Department specialist for Syria, “saved American lives,” in the aftermath of September 11 terrorist attacks! More hopefully that such a listing would be backtracking on Mrs. Clinton’s statements before the 2-day US House of Appropriations Committee on April 24-25, 2009: ”let`s remember here… the people we are fighting today we funded them twenty years ago…and great, let them come from Saudi Arabia and other countries, importing their Wahabi brand of Islam.”
