Syrie : La Bataille d’Alep et Les Mensonges de Nos Journalistes



Guerre sans complexe de l’Occident contre l’information et la conscience politique

 L’accumulation des mensonges éhontés par lesquels les journalistes de nos principales chaines télé et de nos grands journaux nous racontent les actuelles opérations militaires en Syrie


Publié le : jeudi 11 févrie 

 L’accumulation des mensonges éhontés par lesquels les journalistes de nos principales chaines télé et de nos grands journaux nous racontent les actuelles opérations militaires en Syrie – qui pourraient marquer un virage majeur dans le cours de cette guerre qui ensanglante le pays depuis cinq ans – est véritablement indigne et scandaleuse. Un sommet a été atteint récemment avec la description faite de la bataille d’Alep.
 La grande ville industrielle située au nord de la Syrie a toujours été la capitale économique du pays. En 2012, Alep a été attaquée par des groupes djihadistes de diverses tendances, en grande partie constitués de djihadistes et de mercenaires étrangers, qui ont réussi à l’encercler presque complètement, à occuper certains quartiers périphériques où se trouvent différentes usines et centrales électriques et hydrauliques, et à s’infiltrer dans plusieurs quartiers du centre-ville. Les habitants n’ont absolument pas collaboré à l’attaque, et en ont subi au contraire toutes les conséquences. En fait, les usines ont été démantelées par les djihadistes, lesquels reçoivent continuellement des renforts… et des armes en provenance de la Turquie toute proche. Les équipements des usines ont tous été revendus en Turquie, avec évidemment la complicité des autorités d’Ankara.Mais face à la résistance opposée par la ville, rendue possible par d’incertaines voies de ravitaillement au sud-est du centre-ville maintenues ouvertes tant bien que mal par l’armée, les djihadistes, appuyés par des miliciens de l’État islamique (EI) aussi appelé Daesh provenant de l’Est, de Raqqa, ont décidé de couper l’eau et l’électricité aux assiégés tout en bombardant les quartiers du centre-ville à l’aide de mortiers, et en harcelant les habitants par des attentats sanglants menés à l’aide – entre autres – de voitures piégées (le plus meurtrier a touché l’université et provoqué a mort de dizaines d’étudiants). Sur l’ensemble de ces faits, nous avons les témoignages répétés des évêques des communautés chrétiennes d’Alep, qui racontent également avoir fait creuser des puits pour essayer de soulager les souffrances de la population assoiffée, des témoignages que les journalistes ne pouvaient pas ignorer, même s’ils n’avaient pas forcément envie de faire confiance aux informations détaillées fournies par l’agence syrienne SANA ou par les différentes sources russes (Sputnik) ou libanaises (Al-Manar).
  La contre-offensive de l’armée syrienne déclenchée au cours des derniers mois de 2015 avec l’appui de l’aviation russe vise avant tout à « mettre fin » au siège de la ville. L’armée a donc progressé « depuis le centre-ville vers les localités voisines » pour éloigner les assaillants. Au nord-est, elle a libéré la grande base militaire de Kuweiri, située à presque 25 km du centre et assiégée depuis plus de trois ans, en repoussant les miliciens de Daesh vers l’Euphrate. Au nord-ouest, deux autres villes situées à 40 km d’Alep ont également été libérées, elles étaient assiégées depuis 2012 par les djihadistes d’al-Nosra (branche syrienne d’al-Qaïda) et leurs alliés d’Harar al-Sham et de l’Armée syrienne libre (ASL). L’agence SANA a diffusé les images des foules en liesse accueillant l’armée « libératrice ». Et vers le sud-ouest également, l’armée avance pour rouvrir les routes vers les provinces d’Homs et de Hama, et permettre un meilleur afflux de ravitaillement de la population en biens de première nécessité.Mais voilà, les mots utilisés par nos journalistes aux ordres disent 
exactement le contraire de la réalité, pour leur plus grande honte. D’après eux (et selon les directives qu’ils reçoivent), ce serait l’armée nationale qui « avancerait vers Alep » pour la « reconquérir », comme si la ville était aux mains des rebelles et des mercenaires étrangers, et non assiégée depuis plus de trois ans par les djihadistes. Selon eux, les habitants d’Alep fuiraient la ville, terrorisés par les bombardements russes.

 En réalité, à l’intérieur du périmètre d’Alep, il n’y a plus de combats. Les groupes de djihadistes et de mercenaires qui s’étaient infiltrés en ville ont été isolés et ont comme seule perspective celle de se rendre ou bien de conclure un accord avec le gouvernement comme celui qui a permis aux djihadistes encerclés dans un quartier isolé de Homs d’être accompagnés à la frontière turque dans des autobus fournis par le gouvernement. Le front se trouve désormais beaucoup plus au nord d’Alep, à seulement 20 km de la frontière turque (information du 7 février). L’armée nationale entend bien atteindre la ville frontalière d’A’zaz pour bloquer le ravitaillement permanent en armes et en mercenaires étrangers qui continuent d’affluer de la Turquie.

 Dans d’autres régions de la Syrie comme l’extrême sud de la province de Deraa également, l’armée repousse les djihadistes vers la Jordanie (qui est en train d’abandonner prudemment son attitude hostile envers la Syrie), tandis que la bande frontalière avec la Turquie située au nord de la province de Lattaquié (où un avion russe fut traîtreusement abattu par un missile turc) est désormais sous le contrôle de l’armée de Bachar el-Assad, qui bloque ainsi l’infiltration de nouveaux mercenaires. Face à ce revirement majeur dans la guerre syrienne, nos journalistes qui pendant toutes ces années ont refusé de parler de la faim et de la soif des civils piégés à Alep et se sont tus sur les conditions de vie dramatiques qui les ont obligés à quitter la ville et à devenir des réfugiés, changent du tout au tout et parlent maintenant abondamment des civils qui fuient les zones de combat.

 Faisant écho à la propagande et aux requêtes de ces deux criminels que sont le président turc Erdogan et son Premier ministre Davutoğlu – qui sont les principaux responsables du massacre syrien, avec les Saoudiens et les États-Unis –, ils demandent maintenant la « fin des bombardements russes ». Mais cette ferveur pseudo-humanitaire est simplement due au fait que les mercenaires au service du néo-colonialisme et de l’impérialisme occidental et des monarchies obscurantistes du Golfe sont en train de perdre la guerre, et que la Syrie, aidée par la Russie, l’Iran et le Hezbollah libanais, se révèle être un os bien plus coriace que prévu. Quand les peuples résistent vraiment, c’est vrai que « l’impérialisme n’est qu’un tigre de papier ».

Syrischer Kommunistischer Jugendverband: “Wir werden niemals aufgeben!”

http://icp.sol.org.tr/sites/default/files/skghb_0.jpgCommunist Youth of Syria: ‘We will never give up!’

Special interview with Wessam Kahel, member of the International Relations Committee of the Communist Youth Union of Syria-Bakdash.
ICP, 9th February 2016

ICP: How would you consider the internal dynamics and the positions of the subjects in Syria today?
WK: I would like to give some information from the last events.Syrian army recently has progressed in different places. As you know, it is a quite large country. So, the  Syrian army cannot spread all its forces to all places. This progress should be considered due to Russia, on which we will talk about later.
Haleppo for example, the south of Haleppo is mainly controlled by the Syrian army and the reactionary rebels have all been swept away. This powerful and fast progress of the Syrian army was supported by Russia. More than 75 places in south of Haleppo are controlled by the Syrian army now. It is not the city, but the wide countryside. In some small cities, the army swept the rebels away just in a few hours. We were surprised by this very fast progress.
Also in the west of Haleppo, important progress have been gained against Daesh this time.
In south, there are the main terrorist organisation, the Front of Nusra which is affiliated to Al-Quaida, and also some other smaller terrorist organisations controlled by this Front of Nusra.
In the west of Haleppo, there have also been progressions towards al Rakka, the so-called capital of Daesh.
We are all very surprised about this progress and we are very hopeful as well.
Also around Damascus, where most of the places are in the government’s control, in the countryside and exactly in the west, there is Islamic Front, an organisation controlled by the Saudi-Arabia. The leader of this organisation has been killed in an operation of Syria and Russia. His name was Zehran Hallush. This clearly means a very big problem for this organisation since they depend only to one person, not to an ideology.
In the south of Damascus, Dara, near to Jordan and Israel, where there is also Front of Al-Nusra, the Syrian army has regained the control of some many big cities and important places. This is a very broad region but Syrian army has done many progressions in all of these places.
In the middle of Syria, in Homs, there was  a very small base where the rebels are grounded. Syrian army has circled them, fought and made these rebels leave the city. Homs is now clear. The countryside towards Liban is also clear.
ICP: What about Palmira?
WK: Unfortunately, you know that there has been a big attack from hundreds, maybe a thousand of rebels to get this small city. It is a very important city since it is a historical place. Syrian army has draw back as they did not want the artifacts got damaged. It is still under the control of ISIS, but the Syrian army is situated around 10 km above. It is not the most important place for now though, there are many big cities that the Syrian army tries to deal with.
ICP:Has there been any damage to this ancient city? ….  mehr: http://www.barth-engelbart.de/?p=94086

Russia Lances The Poison in Syria by Finian Cunningham

 
| 18.02.2016 | 08:00 Less than five months after Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered military intervention in Syria, the five-year war has been completely transformed. Peace is far from certain as a tentative truce this week will attest. The conflict may even escalate. But what Russia’s intervention has certainly achieved is to squeeze out into the open the poisonous forces of regime change that have brought Syria to its dire condition.
Not only is the Syrian state pulled back from the brink of collapse into a terrorist-run failed entity, as befell «NATO liberated» Libya, but the Russian air strikes like a surgical operation have lanced the noxious inflammation festering in Syria. All sorts of poisons are now oozing and being exposed, primarily the nefarious roles played by Western powers, their regional allies, and the toxic lies propounded by the Western news media to cover for crimes against peace.
If it were not for the gravity of human suffering, the situation could be seen as almost comical, owing to the Western contortions to hide reality. Western governments and their servile media are falling over themselves with ever-changing stories and spin, accusing Russian military operations of all sorts of crimes: killing civilians, hitting hospitals, exacerbating the refugee crisis, targeting «moderate rebels», or «propping up a dictator».
This week, the Western media rushed to implicate Russia or the allied Syrian army in striking hospitals and schools in Azaz and Maarat al-Numan near the Turkish border. Some 11 people were killed at the latter facility, which is supported by the French medical group Doctors Without Borders (DWB). No evidence was presented to support the high-flown claims in the Western media accusing Russia. Russia denied any involvement, while the Syrian government said that the US-led forces carried out the attacks. Meanwhile, all week Turkish military were launching hundreds of artillery volleys across the border into the very area around Azaz where the hospitals were hit. But Western media did not question Turkey about its violation of Syrian sovereignty or the possibility that the errant strikes could have been inflicted by Turkish forces, perhaps even as a false flag to impute Russia.
Last week, the US military spokesman Colonel Steve Warren blamed Russia for air strikes on two hospitals in Aleppo City. Russian defense ministry spokesman General Igor Konashenkov responded by saying that Russian aircraft were not active in the city that day, Wednesday, and that Russian surveillance data in fact showed that two US warplanes had bombed Aleppo.
It is not clear who did strike the DWB-supported hospital in this week. But one established relevant fact is that it was the Americans who bombed a DWB hospital in Afghanistan last October, killing some 30 staff and patients. Also, in Yemen, the US-backed Saudi bombing coalition striking that country have routinely hit DWB and other hospitals on numerous dates over recent months, as even confirmed by DWB.
One other feat of narrative-contortion was given by US envoy to Syria Brett McGurk, who told Congressional lawmakers last week that Russia was «directly helping Islamic State terrorists» from its military intervention in Syria. Another warped spiel was that of US government-owned outlet Voice of America which claimed that Russia’s air strikes were pushing moderate rebels to join the ranks of extremist militia.
Any and all narratives are hastily churned out, it seems, to avoid the obvious, real story: Russia has saved Syria from a covert war of aggression waged by foreign powers who have been using terrorist proxies for the objective of regime change.
That’s it in a nutshell. Russia should be commended, if objective analysis were to prevail. But objective analysis must not prevail in Western media narratives because that would expose the toxic role of their governments and their own criminal complicity in distorting the conflict in Syria.
In a recent «backgrounder» on the Syrian war, here is how the British state-owned BBC «explained» what’s happening: «More than 250,000 Syrians have lost their lives in four-and-a-half years of armed conflict, which began with anti-government protests before escalating into a full-scale civil war. More than 11 million others have been forced from their homes as forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and those opposed to his rule battle each other – as well as jihadist militants from so-called Islamic State».
The BBC tells it like a guileless fairytale, which in its simplistic telling is itself guileful. Note how in the BBC narrative the «jihadist militants» appear from nowhere as if they are an accidental walk-on sideshow; and how, as if by magic, «anti-government protests escalated into a full-scale civil war».
This is the kind of toxic nonsense that Western governments and their evidently dutiful news media have been pumping into the consciousness of their public’s minds for the past five years.
But now that Russia has entered the fray, the poison is oozing out from the Syrian wound.
The Turkish state of Recep Tayyip Erdogan this week is shelling Syrian territory in what any fair-minded person would describe as an act of aggression towards a sovereign country. Ankara is claiming it is attacking «terrorist» Syrian Kurdish militia, the YPG. Not unrelated is the fact that the YPG last week inflicted heavy losses on the jihadist mercenaries that Ankara has been supporting, when the Kurds took over Menagh airbase.
NATO member Turkey has reportedly hit Kurdish villages in Aleppo Province causing civilian casualties, as well as Syrian army positions and Russia’s airbase in Latakia, whom the Kurdish YPG have been liaising with.
Saudi Arabia is sending fighter jets to the NATO airbase at Incirlik in Turkey’s Adana Province, allegedly to begin combat operations against the Islamic State terror group in Syria. Turkey and Saudi Arabia are readying a ground invasion of Syria, with the approval of the Pentagon.
If we step back from the commotion, it is patent that what is unfolding here is flagrant aggression, which the Syrian government has protested to the United Nations Security Council. But with the US, Britain and France – executive powers in the regime-change war on Syria – the UNSC will simply bury the legitimate protests from Damascus.

The unavoidable conclusion is that NATO – the US-led military alliance supposedly maintaining global security – has openly become a belligerent in the Syrian war. The obvious factor is that Russia’s intervention has cut off the Turkish-Saudi-NATO channels to the regime-change terrorist brigades inside Syria. Turkey’s murderous shoot-down of a Russian bomber jet last November – with apologetics from Washington and other NATO members – was the initial, desperate response to Russian success in thwarting the covert war.
The severance of the NATO mercenaries in Aleppo from their lifeline in Turkey is further evidence of Russia’s deep incision into the poison. Turkey and Saudi Arabia’s war mobilization and their tortuous pretexts is straining credulity and straining Western media efforts at trying to sanitize what is going on.
US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter may have publicly endorsed the plan for Saudi and Turkish military intervention in Syria under the laughable guise of «fighting terrorism». But it is also clear that Washington has become unnerved by the runaway train wreck it is riding with these two rogue states. France and Germany are also calling for Turkey to cease its cross-border shelling of Syria.
US Vice President Joe Biden, who only weeks ago was in Ankara chumming it up with the Erdogan regime, reportedly phoned Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu last weekend urging him to call off the artillery fire into Syria.
Voice of America reported: «US officials say there is little to be done to counter militarily the Russian-backed Assad offensive and they argue the vicious five-year-long Syrian civil war that has left upwards of 250,000 dead won’t be resolved by the clash of arms but through a negotiated political settlement».
US Secretary of State John Kerry desperately wants «peace talks» in Geneva because he knows the covert war is on a losing streak. Peace talk is just a cover for political wrangling for regime change. But the Russians are having none of it. Moscow is going to wipe out the foreign-backed mercenaries and stick to the principle of Syrian sovereignty for mapping the country’s political future. The US State Department is in a bind. It has backed a loser, but the impetuous, irrational Erdogan and Saudi clients are not giving up on their regime change fantasies.
Washington is being ensnared in its own toxic contradictions. It has led the criminal scheme for regime change in Syria, instrumented by Turkey and Saudi Arabia in weaponizing radical jihadist mercenaries. As the New York Times recently admitted: «The Russians have cut off may of the pathways the CIA has been using for a not-very-secret effort to arm rebel [that is, terrorist] groups».
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev told the Munich Security Conference last weekend that Syria was in danger of escalating into all-out international war. His warnings were scoffed by Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir as being alarmist – this from an advocate of foreign aggression on Syria!
Medvedev’s warnings are not at all alarmist. They are realist. Frighteningly realist. Russia’s intervention in Syria is demonstrating the complete lawlessness of Washington and its NATO and regional allies. Syria is not in the grip of a «civil war» as the Western media fabricate. Syria is in the crosshairs of foreign powers and their criminal project to destroy a country for their twisted geopolitical ambitions.
Before Russia’s operation, Syria was a shackled patient being amputated upon, injected with all kinds of poisons and generally being violated. The Western media were the orderlies who pulled a screen across this obscenity so that the public would not know. This vile charade can no longer be concealed. The US-led NATO, Arab, terrorist covert war on Syria is there for all to see, and it is largely down to Russia for exposing the despicable crime.
The truth is no guarantee of peace. But in order to eventually arrive at a peace, we at least need to learn of truth.

Entlarvte Propagandalügen:


NUR DIE TÜRKISCHE REGIERUNG WUSSTE VON DEN KLINIKEN..”


In diesem Pressestatement  setzt sich das russische Verteidigungsministerium ausführlich mit den Vorwürfen auseinander, russische Flugzeuge hätten in Idlib und Aleppo Krankenhäuser beschossen. Ganz nebenbei wird noch mitgeteilt, die Informationen über die Ziele kämen auch “von der patriotischen Opposition”.
