Assad Says Europe Is Responsible For Refugee Crisis: "If You're Worried About Them, Stop Supporting Terrorists"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

As the flow of refugees fleeing Syria’s bloody civil war continues to drive a wedge between the EU, and as Brussels struggles to craft a coherent approach to handling the crisis in the face of vastly divergent views on what Europe’s response should be, we’ve made a concerted effort to remind the world that it was Western intervention in Syria that created this crisis in the first place. 

This makes it all the more tragically ironic that Europe is now set to use the flow of asylum seekers (with the drowned body of a Syrian toddler as the mascot) as an excuse to drop still more bombs in Syria. All of this, in an ill-fated effort to destabilize a regime that the West feels doesn’t serve its interests and which is allied with the Kremlin, and by extension with Gazprom, which holds considerable sway over Europe thanks to Russia’s vast natural gas fields.

Now that Russia has boots on the ground around Latakia and has openly called on the US and its allies to form a real coalition to defeat ISIS, Washington has found itself in a tough position. People are very gradually beginning to wonder why it is that Russia has been able, in the space of just two weeks, to build a forward operating base and prepare to help Bashar al-Assad drive back ISIS and reclaim the country while the US - which, if you believe the rhetoric, is at the forefront of the global effort to eradicate Islamic militants in Syria - has managed to do virtually nothing to debilitate the group even as the campaign has been going on for the better part of a year.

The explanation, of course, is that the US is primarily interested in ousting Assad, and a sweeping, Russian-assisted mission to swiftly route Assad’s opposition doesn’t do anything at all to advance that aim and indeed, once the militants are gone, one imagines that convincing the Russians to butt out while the US orchestrates some farce of a “democratic” election that will not include Assad will be well nigh impossible. So here we are: there will be no real effort on the part of the US to defeat ISIS until Assad’s ouster is assured and the Russians just made that outcome far less likely by making it more difficult for ISIS and everyone else fighting for control of the country to win the battle against the regime. So the conflict will continue and so will the the flow of refugees to Europe. 

As the world slowly begins to wake up to everything said above, Putin is keen to exploit the situation by...well, by telling the truth about the US’s strategy for bringing about regime change. Here’s what he said yesterday at a security summit of ex-Soviet countries in Dushanbe, Tajikistan: 

Countries need to “put aside geopolitical ambitions” as well as “direct or indirect use of terrorist groups to achieve” goals that include regime change, in order to counter the threat of Islamic State, Putin said. “Elementary common sense responsibility for global and regional security demands the collective effort of the international community.”

Well don’t look now, but Assad himself is out with a similarly devastating indictment of the West’s role in creating the refugee crisis by using terrorist elements to destabilize his government. We present the following excerpts from an interview Assad gave to Russian media with no further comment. Via CNN:

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is blaming Western nations for fueling the refugee crisis by supporting opposition groups in his country's bloody civil war.

 

"If you are worried about them, stop supporting terrorists," he said in an interview with Russian news organizations. "That's what we think regarding the crisis. This is the core of the whole issue of refugees."

 

"Europe is responsible because it supported terrorism," he said in the interview at his home in Damascus, the capital.

 

The European Union in May 2013 ended an arms embargo on rebel groups fighting the Syrian government. The United States, meanwhile, has been offering limited support to moderate Syrian rebels in the fight against ISIS.

 

"Can you feel sad for a child's death in the sea and not for thousands of children who have been killed by the terrorists in Syria?" al-Assad said, referring to images of a dead Syrian boy that shocked the world. "And also for men, women, and the elderly? These European double standards are no longer acceptable."

 

Despite his bitter accusations, al-Assad said he was willing to shake hands with any leader who would join the fight against ISIS and hoped to cooperate with the West and Saudi Arabia in building a "real antiterrorist coalition," the Russian news agency Interfax reported.

 

He said his forces weren't communicating or cooperating tactically with the U.S.-led coalition that's carrying out airstrikes against ISIS positions in Syria and Iraq.

 

"They cannot accept the reality that we are the only power fighting ISIS on the ground," he said in reference to the United States. "For them, maybe if they cooperate with the Syrian Army, this is like a recognition or our effectiveness in fighting ISIS."

 

He accused the U.S. government of "willful blindness" on the matter.

"he accused the US govt with willful blindness on the matter"

 

If only it was simple 'willful blindness'. Its not blindness, willful or otherwise. It is intentional, the US govt is fully aware of what it is doing. Willful blindness, we should be so lucky. Ill take stupid over evil any day, but unfortunately for Syria(and the rest of the world) it looks like we are stuck with a combination of both.

US & EU seeks to create Qatar-Turkey pipeline through Syria. That would be alternative for Russian gas in EU. So it means a major problem for Russian elite as China economy slowing down and gas deal is still not working. For Russian elite Ukraine is nothing in compare with this problem. But Syria has been an ally to Russia since 1971 when Assad’s father made deal with USSR to create naval supply and maintenance base (reality on the ground is different – its hard to call a base at all). Since then Syria is a major client for Russian military complex. So what Russian elite did was veto on Qatar-Turkey pipeline project through it’s influence on Assad regime. So what Qatar did was it organized Assad overthrow and US with EU gave a helping hand – just to get rid of Assad in order to get this project going. So why Russian elite decided to step in now? Well, things for Assad regime go bad lately. Lot of territory lost and actually end of Assad is very close. So after Assad Qatar with EU, US, Turkey (they will be happy to get rid of Kurds as they will have their country on old Syria territory) and Kurds will divide Syria. In result Russia elite can lose not only that “naval base” – but most importantly major client for it’s gas – EU. And that could be devastating blow for Russian economy. So what Russian elite hope to do is to get some piece of land in Syria to control it after Syria is dived where Assad alawites can hold their ground and still block Qatar-Turkey pipeline project. I think this is too late at this stage and Russia will only lose it’s resources and this will be hard to explain at home. But I guess as Russian elite controls media it will manage to deal with that problem. Still, if this project gets through – Russia economy is in very serious trouble and there can be a collapse. So that is what’s going on in Syria.

After Russia elite made military support to Assad  which is hated by Sunni (look at this map) it will get revange from Islamic terrorists in Caucasus region and in heart of Russia - that will destabilze Russia. 

 

Syrian, Afghani, etc. who run away to Turkey from war zone at home is refugee. But when he takes a boat to travel to EU he is an economic migrant, because there is no war in Turkey, but this Syrian seeks economic benefits from EU.

What EU must do is:

1.) Secure it’s outside borders and not to let in economic migrants;

2.) Start thinking what caused this migration and stop supporting military actions in these or other countries (But that sweet sweet gas deal Qatar-Turkey pipeline was too delicious)

3.) Military support should be only accepted to other country if it’s invaded by other aggressor country military forces / “little green man” – but not to bomb away other governments like in Libya or Afghanistan, Iraq. Or to organize military groups to overthrow government like in Syria.

 

If you look at these so called "war refugees" here:

https://youtu.be/NY9HYV3ZNgA

Then you will notice that majority are young males - so where are families? Where are their wife’s and children? Those should be majority - not males. So if they would be "war refugees" - shouldn't they be with families? Otherwise it looks like those males put their wife and children behind in war zone. Or maybe - just maybe they are not war refugees.Also, what “war refugee” would throw away food, water and would try to leave country that is not a war zone – there is no war in Serbia, Hungary, Turkey, etc.  

 

Now, if we look further what will happen if those hordes of young males get into one of EU country. For Example Sweeden. They don't know their language, they don't  have job, they don't have money, they don't have house - they are living in camps. So how those males will get laid? They can't create relationship with women there - but still want to f**k. So what shall they do? The answer is - they will rape. And that is already happening. See here: https://youtu.be/P_FB1g52Goo

Sweden has been the rape capital of the world for many years due to mass non-white immigration.  The Leftist elites in Norway, Sweden, etc. all say that the women should just accept their roles as rape victims.  It's hardly a crime at all in those nations these days.  Certainly not something punishable in any meaningful way.  If a 20 year old African rapes a 12 year old white girl he might get 20 days community service.  The teens that gang raped the 10 year old Swedish girl at a water park got no punishment whatsoever.  Seems you just have to respect their "cultural differences."

In Sweden, winking in the general direction of a female is considered "rape" and can land you in jail. You don't know what a fundamentalist is until you've seen a Swedish feminist. They make your homegrown American radfems look like muslims, and they rule the country.

The only escape for male Swedes is homosexuality. Or emigration. Or marrying a foreigner.

"The girl is traumatized after brutal assault and currently lives in a sheltered accommodation. …

The rapes took place on 19 June near Tensta. The men gang-raped the girl while one of them – an unidentified person – put a gun on her face and threatened to kill her if she did not stop screaming.

When they had finished raping the girl, the man pressed the gun in her vagina, causing damage and heavy bleeding. Then two of the men drove the girl to a basement room in Rinkeby where they gang-raped her again.

In the morning, the girl managed  to get out of the basement and was found by er father who was out looking for her.

“When he found her, she sat on a lawn and was shocked, crying and in panic with bloodied clothes. She seemed scared as a hunted prey and just wanted to get away from there,” reads the judgment.

After the incident, the girl was so traumatized and afraid of the perpetrators that she has been forced to move to a shelter.

On Thursday the Solna District Court sentenced  immigrant men for the aggravated rape. One of them, a 21-year-old, was sentenced to five years in prison, while a 19-year-old gets two and a half years in prison. A 18-year-old was sentenced to youth custody for a year and four months since he was under 18 when the crime was committed.

Assad, through massive US PsyOps, has been ruthlessly painted up to be the villain of a war that the west has propagated from the beginning. It's a bankers war and they want Syria, a sovereign country minding it's own business, and not participating with the corrupt west, to fall into their vampire laps. Anyone who listens to Assad, in an unedited non-MSM video, will clearly hear the truth. The west is licking it's chops for Syrian Resources and they want to ram their policies for spreading their noxious form of "freedom and democracy", like they did to Libya, down the throats of any sovereign country that gets in their way.

Have things gotten markedly better or worse since we (the US) started intervening in Syria, have more or fewer Syrians died and/or been displaced since we started supporting "freedom fighters" in Syria? Honestly ask yourself and answer those questions.

Syria is small potatoes.  You people are short sighted.  What's happening here?  Let me tell you.

This is an assault on European socialism and pacifism.  This flood of violent savages is going to toughen up the typical European man and fast.  Furthermore, these savages are not going to become Leftist pussies like white Europeans.  This is necessary to raise an E.U. army to destroy Russia.  Which is the long term goal of this mass migration scheme, to build a massive army of violent Muslim savages equipped with Western weaponry to eliminate Russia once and for all.  Millions will die, but what of it?  They are just subhuman Muslims anyway.  One more obstacle to the NWO removed.  It'll take 10 or so years though.  Gotta wait for this army of military aged Muslim males to learn the local languages so they will made adequate soldiers.

Interesting angle there.  But, really, TPTB would be that stupid to invite "terrorists" into their own backyards in order to attack a foreign "enemy?"

I've never knee-jerked over the "NWO" story/threat.  BAD SYSTEMS FAIL.  Everyone is always trying to TRY something, but that don't mean that it'll end up permeating everything.  The various PTB will never agree enough to establish any such global power.  Fragmentation is the ONLY real path given entropy's power.  The EU breaks up.  NO NWO.

I'm afraid that 10 years is something the U.S. MIC doesn't have.  If what you say is true the CBs that are funding them have 12 months tops and that's a liberal estimate at best.  Keep reminding yourself how breeding chaos with feudal fortresses in the places you destroy to keep the invaders out in perpetuity doesn't bode well for morale within the military or the nations around you that support those efforts when you have to threaten tthem in order to keep them on your side.

The only thing the U.S. and Israel has left is it's chemical/biological agent(s)and nukes which it is prepared to use -but you know how asymmetric warfare works and how grim the conditions will be for all parties concerned should Georgy Soros and friends use the only card left in the deck they have to play at this point!

Where was Butler when shit was going DOWN?  He wrote AFTER THE FACT, after the point at which he'd helped TPTB further entrench themselves.  I absolutely approve of Smedley's War Is A Racket, but the reality is is that all such folks with any such influence and power only seem able to demonstrate this AFTER the cows have gotten out of the barn!  NOTE: Smedley can be said to have killed a coup against Roosevelt; and on the other side of things he was a bit of a fascist, desiring a ham-fisted approach to law enforcement- I always struggle to buy any package in its entirety because of the complexities...

As for Clinton, what a great puppet!  Her "involvement" won't be exposed because all her "detractors" (on the other side of the political circus coin) are also involved (see John McCain and his early support of ISIS).

Thick Willy and other shit for brains asswipes here are clueless.

When the USA invaded Iraq in 2003,  thousands of Iraqi Christians fled to Syria for freedom.

Assad is SECULAR,  ( I doubt Thick Dickhead Willy even knows what  the means).

So then what happened?  The USA intalled a MUSLIM puppet President in Iraq. 

Meanwhile the USA sponsored terrorists started attacking Libya and Syria.

Assad is elected and his army killed many of them but the USA kept supporting ISIS with weapons 

Many Syrian Christians were butchered by the USA supported FSA and ISIS.

Oil/resource socialism my Russian friend is not going to work any better for Russia than it does for Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, Iran, etc.

Fracking caps oil prices at about $70 a bbl. The Saudis can barely make ends meet at that price. Iran will be going broke. And of course Venezuela is already gone.

The question now is gas for Europe. Will they go all in on fracking? A Russian misstep this winter could change Euro sentiment on the matter.

The US/West has benefited quite well over this.

ALL wars are about resources.  In the end we'll be fighting over resources until we ALL perish.  Humans are animals (despite all the attempts to fool ourselves otherwise); animals fight over resources.  It's really about how resources are allocated: you can pick it apart on a smaller, country or religious scale, but the Big Picture is quite clear (we're only trying to hide from this stark reality- humans are deceptive, as is nature!).

More and more, I HATE the degree to which I am forced to regard the statements made by politicians in NATO countries as egregious LIES, while at the same time statements made by the politicians in the countries the NATO has attacked make more sense.

Of course, I understand the reasons WHY, namely that the international banksters almost totally control NATO countries, and therefore, their political puppets advance the banksters' agenda by bombing the shit out of any countries that are not already totally enslaved to the international banksters' systems. The most important thing that countries targeted for "regime change" had in common was the degree to which they were not control by, in debt to, the international banksters' systems, which would be most symbolized by them not having an international bankster controlled central bank.

The international banksters are the financial terrorists that are behind driving all of the other problems with terrorism to get worse, faster ... with no end in sight for those trends. NATO countries support "terrorists" because of the degree that those are controlled by political puppets that the banksters became the puppet masters of ... However, most of those who went through the public schools, and only watched the mass media, tend to believe the banksters' bullshit. "Western intervention in Syria" follows the international banksters' agenda, that had ALREADY INTERVENED IN THE USA, resulting in the American situation getting worse, faster, at an exponential rate, as recently demonstrated by this article: Obama's Recovery In Just 9 Charts ...

World War III - Who Will Be Blamed?

Everything becomes MOAR criminally insane than
it ever was during previous eras of human history.

The success of the ruling classes getting away with inside job, false flag started, terrorism has created runaway, increasingly psychotic PERPETUAL WAR, whereby the ruling classes have become too criminally insane to fully comprehend!


http://www.newspeakdictionary.com/go-goldstein.html

THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF OLIGARCHICAL COLLECTIVISM

"In past ages, a war, almost by definition, was something that sooner or later came to an end, usually in unmistakable victory or defeat. In the past, also, war was one of the main instruments by which human societies were kept in touch with physical reality. All rulers in all ages have tried to impose a false view of the world upon their followers, but they could not afford to encourage any illusion that tended to impair military efficiency. So long as defeat meant the loss of independence, or some other result generally held to be undesirable, the precautions against defeat had to be serious. Physical facts could not be ignored. In philosophy, or religion, or ethics, or politics, two and two might make five, but when one was designing a gun or an aeroplane they had to make four. Inefficient nations were always conquered sooner or later, and the struggle for efficiency was inimical to illusions. Moreover, to be efficient it was necessary to be able to learn from the past, which meant having a fairly accurate idea of what had happened in the past. Newspapers and history books were, of course, always coloured and biased, but falsification of the kind that is practiced today would have been impossible. War was a sure safeguard of sanity, and so far as the ruling classes were concerned it was probably the most important of all safeguards."

But when war becomes literally continuous, it also ceases to be dangerous. When war is continuous there is no such thing as military necessity. Technical progress can cease and the most palpable facts can be denied or disregarded. ... researches that could be called scientific are still carried out for the purposes of war, but they are essentially a kind of daydreaming, and their failure to show results is not important. Efficiency, even military efficiency, is no longer needed. ...

The demonstrations, which began Saturday in Rafah, a southern city in the Gaza Strip, are the largest in years. Still, it is uncertain if the protesters can sustain their momentum, and it is unclear if they will pose a challenge to Gaza’s Hamas rulers.
