Another terrorist attack rocked Syria today and currently it is known that at least 53 people have been killed. The Free Syrian Army (FSA) and many other Islamist terrorist organizations constantly slaughter innocents in this fashion. Therefore, the so-called opposition is once more showing the world that barbaric terrorism is part and parcel of their methodology. Of course, for nations like Qatar, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia, which are openly supporting various terrorist factions; then this type of brutality is being sanctioned by their respective rat lines. Similarly, William Hague, who represents the British government, desires to fund “a third force” under the auspices of the agenda of “outside nations” in order to topple the Syria government. The European Union thankfully rejected the demands of William Hague but it highlights the sheer “madness of the British government” which seeks to add even more fuel to the fire. The so-called Syrian National Coalition (SNC) is holding a meeting in Egypt despite having little influence on the ground. Ironically, the SNC must have their eyes closed because in Egypt vast numbers of people have taken to the streets because of their disdain towards the Muslim Brotherhood. Similarly, the same SNC doesn’t mind fraternizing with feudal monarchies in the Gulf and obtaining the support of nations like Turkey which are supporting the mayhem in Syria. Therefore, in the world of the SNC it appears that the Muslim Brotherhood, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, must represent modernity, democracy, female emancipation and religious freedom. After all, the SNC is on the side of anti-government forces in Syria which support sectarianism, sedition, terrorism and religious cleansing. The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) stated that “…the bombing, which took place in a densely populated area near a crossroad of main streets, killed and injured a large number of civilians, including children.” SANA further stated that “…huge material damage was caused to the houses of citizens in the area surrounding the bombing in addition to a huge fire in a large number of cars, noting that the victims are mostly passersby, school students and people driving their cars.” It is known that the latest terrorist attack also caused damage to the local al-Hayat Hospital in Damascus. Also, the Abdullah Bin al-Zubir school felt the terrible effects of the brutal terrorist attack against innocent adults and children. The government of Syria, just like neighboring Iraq, is faced by a brutal Islamist onslaught whereby nothing is sacred. Yet, unlike Iraq, major players in the West, Turkey, and in the Gulf, are on the side of terrorist forces which are causing so much carnage throughout Syria. Sadly, the nations which are supporting the terrorist opposition openly in Syria fear no repercussions for their barbaric deeds. Therefore, it is essential for friends of Syria and nations which are neutral to put more pressure on countries which are supporting the carnage. It is possible that the death toll will further rise from the known 53 people who have just perished by the latest terrorist attack in Syria. However, until the international community puts pressure on outside nations which are meddling in Syria – then, clearly, this won’t be the last terrorist attack which slaughters innocent adults and children. http://www.sana-syria.com/eng/337/2013/02/21/468516.htm leejay@moderntokyotimes.com http://moderntokyotimes.com
