The international SHO
The US-led coalition scrambled fighters after Syrian regime jets targeted Kurdish forces working with US advisers in northern Syrian, an incident marking another escalation in Syria’s bloody conflict, the Pentagon said on Friday 19th August 2016. (New-York Times reported)
18th August air strike, conducted by two Syrian SU-24 attack planes, targeted Kurdish forces who were undergoing training from US special operations advisers in the area around the northeastern city of Hasakeh, Pentagon spokesman Captain Jeff Davis reported. He further said that US forces will ensure their safety and the Syrian regime would be well-advised not to do things that place them at risk and that they do have the inherent right of self defense, as reported by the New-York Times.
Jeff David did not feel any guilt or shame while making such a statement, perhaps he forgot that they are the originator and instigator of this civil war of Syria for their own interest which has caused thousands of innocent lives.
But the warning appeared to fall on deaf ears, Syrian official warplanes bombarded Hasakeh for a second day on 19th August. As soon as strike began, ground forces tried to hail pilots via radio, to no avail. US forces then contacted Russia, which has been bombing parts of Syria for nearly a year in support of President Bashar al-Assad, but Russian military officials said the planes were Syrian.
“This is very unusual, we have not seen the regime take this type of action against YPG before,” Davis said, using the initials of the US-supported Kurdish militants fighting in northern Syria against the govrnment.
The Kurdish People’s Protection Units, or YPG, are a key US ally in the fight against Syria called in Washington’s language as Islamic State.
Washington regards them as the most effective fighting force on the ground in Syria and has provided weapons and Special Forces military advisers.
More than 290,000 people have been killed since Syria’s conflict erupted in March 2011.
It’s a war of control in the zone of Middle East, it’s a war to destabilise Muslim countries against Israel, so that Israel doesn’t have any threat from any side of Islamic States. It’s a war to put the oil rich Muslim countries at the edge of bankruptcy, it’s a war of America’s financial gains and interest.
The past four years have been hell for Aleppo, as Syria’s civil war left thousands dead and reduced entire neighbourhoods to rubble in opposition-held areas.
But this summer life got even worse. A burst of intensified fighting has rocked the flash-point northern city, long divided between rebel districts in the east and government-controlled areas in the west. The 300,000 residents of the eastern enclaves suddenly faced a punishing siege and worsening shortages of food, water and drugs amid a surge in attacks by government and Russian fighter jets, the horrors have become almost unbearable.
The ongoing fighting appears to be building into an important battle in Aleppo, Syria’s largest city before conflict erupted five years ago, killing 400,000 people across the country and displacing millions.
Winning control of the entire city is a goal that has eluded both sides since rebel forces stormed it in 2012, and the fierceness of this summer’s battles underscores how much both still see it as a potential game-changer in the war. For residents, though, the stakes are more immediate and measured in daily suffering.
Rebel fighters this month managed to partially lift the government blockade of their strongholds in the city. Now those fighters backed by American forces, some of them linked to al-Qaeda, are expanding their offensive to shell and besiege government-run neighborhoods, which are also experiencing water and food shortages.
In Aleppo, risk of humanitarian catastrophe is unprecedented in the five years of bloodshed and suffering in the Syrian conflict, U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has said.
Where is the United Nations and where are the so called International Humanitarian Organisations and where are American people who claim themselves civilized?
Why did America start this war, why Washington is fuelling the rebels, why is Washington favouring and helping the militants? Isn’t it deceitful on Washington’s part, isn’t it their duplicitous policy that on one side they claim to fight against al-Qaeda and on the other side they are helping al-Qaeda to fight against Syrian government?
It’s a war for the financial gains and control on the area and to help Israel, America has killed hundreds and thousands of innocent citizens. Is there any organisation to ask them for their worldwide policy of wrongdoings? American role is just like a SHO of the world, which should immediately be stopped by someone.
Russia on the western side and China on the Eastern side are challenging Washington’s misdoings, will their challenge be able to stop Pentagon from their conspiracies against the world’s peace? I think, it will.
And, if it is so, a new era of peace may start.
