Combating terrorism requires credibility

Despite the fact that the UN Security Council has issued three resolutions to combat terrorism, especially the takfiri terrorism of the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq and al-Nosra Front which became a threat to the whole world, these resolutions remain a mere ink on paper if the US and its allies do not abide by them and immediately halt their financial, military and logistic support to these groups. It is high time to fight terrorism seriously but there are still some countries waiting till terrorism knocks their doors and hits different nations without any distinction from America to Asia, Africa, Europe and other parts of the globe.

Turkey is still allowing terrorists, particularly from Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and Jabhat al-Nusra, to cross the joint borders with Syria, as Israel assists terrorists in Golan, particularly Jabhat al-Nusra.

The United States should be the first to abide by this resolution, an act through which it could give credibility to its claim that it is fighting terrorism.

The US and its wrong counter terrorism policies in Afghanistan are to blame for the current spread of terrorism all over the world. Clear evidence for this placing of blame is seen in the current U.S. administration providing assistance to some terrorist organizations inside Syria and in neighboring countries at camps that have been set up for the purpose of training terrorists to cross border to kill the Syrians inside the Syrian territory.

There are four camps openly operating for training the terrorists which are located in Turkey, Jordan, Qatar and Saudi Arabia. All the four camps are run by secret intelligence services, including the CIA of the US and the Mossad of Israel.

The terrorists come from Jordan, which established camps, or what they call joint operation centers, to train terrorists then send them to Syria under observation of intelligence services of the US, Israel, Turkey, France, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, and they call those terrorists (Moderates) while the Security Council resolution points out that there is no moderate or extremist terrorists and the resolution obligates fighting terrorism and all forms of terrorist acts perpetrated by ISIS, Al-Nusra and all other terrorist organizations.

Training centers established in Turkey, Saudi, Qatar and Jordan are not for means of peaceful negotiations to find out political solutions but rather are death-making camps for Syrians.

The UN Security Council Resolution 2199 to crack down financing terrorist groups through illicit oil sales, trading in antiquities and paying ransom for hostages” is extremely important on condition the US, its Western allies and its regional and Arab tools abide by it. The resolution calls for pulling the plug on funding terrorist organizations, including ISIS and Jabhat al-Nusra. The resolution (2199) is very important for both Syria and Iraq, which are the main victims of the foreign intelligence and forces backed terrorism. The terrorists in the region, particularly in Syria and Iraq, do not come by parachutes but rather across joint borders of both countries and the majority of the terrorists cross into Syria and Iraq from Turkey and Jordan. For this reason, the resolution will not be a great contribution to fight takfiri terrorism if the US and its allies do not stop their unlimited support for the terrorist organizations operating in Syria and Iraq.

 Jordan has adopted for years the policy of training, supporting and sending terrorists across the joint border into Syria to kill Syrians, and the Jordanian authorities see terrorists in the Syrian city of Al-Raqqa but do not see them while crossing its borders towards Syria and Iraq.

Resolution 2199 completes former resolutions related to fighting terrorism, including resolutions 2170 and 2178. The newly adopted resolution imposes serious commitments over member states which support terrorism in Iraq and Syria, and such commitments treat, particularly, trading oil and gas and smuggling archeological and cultural properties in a way that prevent terrorists to get financed from them.

 We hope that the US and its allies completely abide by the new UN resolution so that the sources of funding terrorism are dried. Otherwise, terrorism will continue to spread in the region and move to other parts of the world and the double standards will remain dominant.
