The collective cynicism is ugly. The innocent Syrian people are now doomed. The author hopes that his predictions shall soon be proven wrong…

Lebanon-based al-Mayadeen reports tonight, December 8, 2024, that Russia, Iran, Turkey call for immediate end to hostilities in Syria.
My cynical interpretation of this – beyond pathetic – “call” is the following:
Turkey knew and did/does all it can – again – to destroy Syria. Russia and Iran were surprised or act surprised; they can do nothing given their own malaise. Or their “intelligence” services failed miserably?
Their common statement is devoid of constructive steps in this uniquely urgent situation. It does not even mention the Syrian government or its President. They “call for” terrorists who are approaching the outskirts of Damascus and have declared long ago that they want to get rid of the Baathist party, al-Assad etc. and create an Islamist state to “end hostilities”!
They endorse, for all practical purposes, that Bashar al-Assad falls or he and his family are killed à la Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi.
In this statement, they endorse that terrorists, supported over time by the CIA, NATO US, NATO Turkey and Israel, take over Syria – no matter the price to be paid by the innocent Syrian people.
They do not call upon the UN and its Security Council, do not mention regional organisations, do not address what they themselves could do – they only appeal to terrorists to behave nicely…
OK, I call them terrorists – not moderate rebels, opposition forces, rebel groups, participants in a civil war, or whatever you’ll see in the Western press. HTS – see later – that now sweeps down toward Damascus is considered a terrorist group even by the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, European Union and some other countries.
But that may, of course, soon change.
The US and Europe now finally get the regime change they started in Darra in 2011 and continued at the Marrakesh Meeting of what was euphemistically called “The Friends of Syria” with some 100 countries. There in Marrakesh, they decided to depose President al-Assad and replace him with a new National Council à la Libya consisting of 300 unknown and un-elected people.
That was December 12, 2012 – 4 years on the day before Aleppo was liberated from their terrorist friends, then called al-Nushra, assisted by their ‘humanitarian’ PR helpers, The White Helmets – and btw also some Uyghurs who were being educated in Aleppo, presumably to go back to ‘liberate’ China’s Xinjiang Province with the help of the US…
What happens in Syria is not predominantly – if at all – a civil war; it never was.
It was – and still is – an international regime change attempt that ended with the liberation of Eastern Aleppo from 4,5 years of al-Nushra occupation. It happened on December 12, 2016. I was there, and I documented it in photo documentaries and numerous articles you can find on The Transnational and its archive sites.
It should not surprise you that none of the dozens of Western media I offered my writings to – based on being present where there were extremely few foreigners – wanted to publish any of them.
You, dear reader, had to be lied to: the Western-orchestrated and financed, full-scale support for terrorists did not happen; it never happened. It was a ‘civil war’ with ‘mostly ‘moderate’ rebels that the West could support. The US/West fully supports terrorism when it suits the West’s purposes. And toppling al-Assad was such a purpose. But with the fall of Aleppo in December, they gave up, and Syria disappeared from the media front pages.
In certain ways, it is as nasty and unethical as the support of Israel’s genocide on Palestinians.
It is this al-Nusra – now Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) – that is conquering Syria these very hours, and they will, according to most reports, take control of Syria’s capital, Damascus, within a few hours. They have the full support of the West. You have not heard any Western leader lament or condemn the supporting countries or HTS itself.
They are all fine with backing terrorism, even though they normally pretend they are fighting terrorism.
To understand a little bit better what HTS is, see here. You’ll read that HTS can be seen as “a new stage in the life of the blessed revolution”, Abu Jaber urged all factions of the Syrian opposition to unite under its Islamic leadership and wage a “popular Jihad” to achieve the objectives of the Syrian revolution, which he characterised as the ouster of the Ba’athist regime and Hezbollah militants from Syrian territories, and the formation of an Islamic government.
About HTS’ leader, Abu Mohammad al-Julani, read here. You’ll learn that this indeed multi-faceted personality “ had served as the emir of the now-defunct al-Nusra Front, the former Syrian branch of Al-Qaeda. The US State Department listed Al-Julani as a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist” in May 2013, and four years later announced a $10 million reward for information leading to his capture…”
At this moment, CNN, for instance, treats Mr al-Julani as a statesman and asks him only nice questions. Judge for yourself here.
If you wonder about the role of the CIA, read Wikipedia about the CIA’s Operation Timber Sycamore—another of charming President Obama’s nasty tricks (together with the regime change in Kiev three years later) in cooperation with David You-Know-Who-Petraeus.
Tonight al-Mayadeen – in Lebanon – can also tell you that “’Target is Damascus,’ Erdogan hopes ‘smooth march’ on Syria’s capital.” I tend to assume that Mr Erdogan also hopes for a smooth killing of Bashar al-Assad, his family and people around him, members of parliament and others who had normal working relations and even positive views of the president.
I met a few such people.
Take a moment to browse my photo documentation mentioned above. You’ll also see that I happened to meet some of the victims – not of “dictator al-Assad’s regime” but of the invading and occupying terrorists’ activities. Actually, the most systematic destruction and heartbreaking human consequences I have ever experienced, and I have visited and worked in a few war zones.
Simply, NATO member Turkey’s role in mass-producing terrorists for Syria and stealing everything it could out of Aleppo and its industrial zone (the 2nd largest in the Middle East with 40 000 workers that no leftwingers or labour unions in Europe bothers the slightest about) from 2011-2016 are well-known facts – and why not try to repeat them now the chance looks much better?
If there is some truth in all the above – and I write in the belief there is – now only God can save the innocent Syrian civilians from slow extermination – not a deliberate genocide but with similar effects over time as in Gaza.
Please be aware of the country’s tremendous diversity in terms of ethnicity and religion; perhaps because of this diversity and marked elements of secularism, religion-based fundamentalism has not taken root in Syria.
No group of terrorists can accommodate that diversity and create stability, not to speak about peace. The Syrian people, including, for instance, the secular and the 10% Christians, will face unspeakable horrors caused by these Western-, CIA- (and others) and Israel-supported terrorist groups who will fight each other till the last Syrian for power over all of Syria.
In summary, you may now add yet another nail in the West’s coffin: Yugoslavia’s dissolution, The Global War On Terror (GWOT) that has failed and also supports terrorists), Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, NATO’s expansion and the resulting destruction of Ukraine, Nord Stream’s destruction and USrael’s live-streamed Gaza Genocide: Syria’s complete destruction on the road to becoming an Islamist/Jihadist fundamentalist state.
Hoping I shall be proven wrong sooner rather than later, this victorious Islamic fundamentalism in Syria is unleashed by a very unusual, informal and tacit coalition of Russia, the US, EU, Turkey, Israel, Iran and others.
One day you support genocide on Palestinians. The next day, you support the terrorist occupation of Syria, a country with thousands of years of culture, the end of the old Silk Roads. What moral catastrophe next?
Tonight, I think of the very decent and cultured people I met in Syria in 2016 and wonder just how much darker our dark times are going to be.

Bonus video with Jeffrey Sachs six years ago:
I totally agree. Now Syria can look forward to another Libyan ll and an Islamic caliphate.
Who did “the dictator” imprison? The beheading islamic terrorists of course.
The terrorist supporting US and EU call them moderate rebels. And they hope…Poor Syrians. Oh God.
NATOSTAN ( read: US-Turkey-Israel and other halluci’Nations ) is a ship full of pirates, lost in the desert. It has never build up anything on land, except for chaos – in shape of dead democracies and killing economies. The NATO’ship plunders ressources, leaving chaos behind, and always sails away, when the wind’direction of events is changing = i.e. things are getting out of control = i.e. when the view of “cost/benefit” makes it into “bad business”.
.
These events are just another medieval crusade – the tenth in row, or so … and still counting…
.
The Sea-empire ( US/UK/EU/Israel & vassals) is like a shark. The old Land empires ( China/India/Russia & vassals ) are like an elephant. When the shark enters land, the elephant tramples on it, until it withdraws – if the elephant enters the sea, the shark will hunt it, until it withdraws.
.
Look at the globe from distance – or use a 3 dimensional globus model – and the big picture becomes clear as daylight.
.
These events are waves in a cup or sand under the foot.
.
That may also be the obvious reason, why you haven´t heard any significant response to the actual events in “Middle East/West’Asia” from the old Land empires – while the massmedia of the Sea empires act like a tsunami … in a coffee cup.
.
Don´t let you so easily get distracted by “the weapons of mass distraction” = mass media = mass psychosis.

Unfortunately, it will cost the lives of many innocent people in the region. The bombs will rain in the desert, the genocide will occur daily, the well and blood will dry out – sounding like a prayer: “Give US today the daily victim/murder … ” or ” ..Free us from US … ” or in common : ” .. to the last oil ” ( i.e. like a kind of “sacrement” )
RE “mass psychosis”
The official framing of the mass formation (or mass psychosis) “phenomenon” is misleading and wrong in terms of what the whole true reality is. The false hope-addicted psychologists and their acolytes want you to believe this is “just some temporary occasional” madness by the masses when it is but a spike of a CHRONIC madness going on for aeons with “civilized” people: https://www.rolf-hefti.com/covid-19-coronavirus.html
One of these mainstream psychologists who have been spreading this whitewashed reality, Dr. Desmet, also failed/fails to see that the PLANNED Covid Psyop is a TOTALLY deliberate ploy because he doesn’t think (after more than 1 year, 2 years, even 3 years, into this total PLANNED scam!) it’s ALL intentionally sinister as he stated in a prior podcast (this makes him witting or unwitting controlled opposition).
In the May of 2022 podcast with James Corbett he stated that “some people tend to overestimate the degree of planning and intentions” (behind the COUNTLESS, VERIFIABLE, FULLY INTENTIONAL, FULLY PLANNED atrocities by the ruling tribe of psychopaths over the last century alone) and see all of it as being PLANNED which Desmet called “an extreme position” … Sound logical thinking is “extreme” and therefore false and sick in his demented delusional view!
This all means Desmet is ALSO a member of the masses of lunatics, an ACTIVE CARD-CARRYING MEMBER of mass formation!
And nearly ALL of the “alternative media” too has been mindlessly spreading Desmet’s fake and misdirecting narrative endlessly…
“My experiences with “alternative media” have been, for the most part, just as dreadful as with the mainstream media. Most are unprincipled scavengers, shills and prostitutes, willing, and even eager, to sell out for ego-gratification and/or financial gain.” — Barbara Hartwell, CIA Whistleblower

Thank you, dear Omar. I feel, obviously like you, that it is difficult to respond to such mad events in an analytical, intellectual manner – you do it your way instead, and it is brilliant. But I do not have you talent… so I go writing this kind of articles 🙂
Our different perspectives, and others as well, complement each other. They are important in different ways, and support and help each other in trying to grasp a very complicated situation, including a lot of secrecy.

When it comes to human suffering, we all have to try even harder. Even the call from a single child for help, should be more than enough to stop this violence ~ if you have a heart.

The metaphor “The elephant and the shark” is not my invention, but originates from older geopolitical analysis, made by generals of the Western military in the 1950’s.

I refer to C.G Jung, W. Reich and Karl Mannheim, when I use terms like “psychic epidemics” & “mass psychosis” – and try to keep a certain distance, and delicate balance, to avoid further chaos and escallation.
.
The complexity of the events taken place, as we write, are enormous. There are so many unknown factors, so many agendas and secrecies.

Like Mr. Oberg, I can only use my limited talent – and stick to it 🙂
