Turkey’s Erdogan and France’s Hollande are both involved in sponsoring terrorism in Syria and both should be held accountable for the Syrian shed blood and even for hundreds of years ago. The recent meeting and empty declarations by both were but an accurate reflection for their bankruptcy.
Erdogan has failed to build his long-dreamt-of empire of illusions and lies, failed to achieve victory, in fact failed to strike his own economic deals; Erdogan succeeded only in shedding the Syrian blood, stealing and robbing the Syrians their source of living, and succeeded in the beggary and exaggerating the numbers of the Syrians his country manipulated and caused misery for, amid more reports regarding his success in prostitution, rape, and selling of human organs.
Hollande, the illegitimate President of France, has lost popularity in his own courtyard. He should have asked himself about the reasons making the French hate him. I think if the President of Syria would be a candidate to lead both Turkey and France, there is a strong possibility that President Bashar Al-Assad would be the president of Turkey and France too! Yes, as long as legitimacy or illegitimacy is sold and bestowed by the cowboys, why should not it be so! H.E. President Al-Assad is not only more charismatic, human and modern than almost every president worldwide; he is also the person most beloved by his own people. Some would say that the parameter for measuring political leaders’ popularity is how much he/she is subordinate, close or far from the US and its proxies, like Turkey, France and the ewes.
The thorn in Holland, Erdogan and others’ throats is President Al-Assad, who has been refusing every blackmail and exploitation of his country’s resources, refusing to change the geo-political position of Syria into others’ playground. For the President of Syria, every resource in Syria is only for the Syrians, and every true Syrian citizen is all Syrians. And the war of attrition against terrorism, so-called Islamic state- I wonder whether all history witnessed an Islamic State other than that of Prophet Muhammad himself, is ever unabated.
