BLACK HOLE: Syrian Province Run By US / Israel - Backed Islamist Gangs Who Steal, Kidnap Children, and Stage Atrocities (Russian TV Report)
Why is the US supporting these guys?, - oh, that's right, because Israel insists on it ...
Russian reporting about Syria is far more truthful than the US, which, honestly is a pack of pro-Israeli lies. An absolute disgrace to journalism.
Russia's top war correspondent has an excellent report here about what is REALLY going on.
Transcript:
Our war correspondent Evgeny Poddubny will talk about what's going on in Idlib now.The positions of the 6th Division are on the border between the Latakia and Idlib provinces. The troops freely move around the base, saying that the mines are seldom planted now. Earlier, they often couldn't even stick their necks out. Activity on the demarcation line is indeed now very low. But the province of Idlib remains a refuge for international terrorist organizations. Though in the next three weeks, a 9-12 mile deep demilitarized zone will be set up here. Joint Russian-Turkish patrolling is also envisaged.Another important aspect is the traffic on the Latakia-Aleppo and Hama-Aleppo highways. Right now the northern capital of Syria is connected to the rest of the country through a bypass highway: it is also often called "the road of life". This is the high-speed highway Latakia-Aleppo. The road has been closed for years now but the road itself is in perfect condition.This is the last checkpoint of the government forces: further is Jisr Al-Shughur, Idlib, and only then Aleppo, meaning the territory, controlled by fighters from radical groups and from the pro-Turkish organizations. During the accomplishment of the agreements reached in Sochi, this highway should be opened for civilians. But there's a problem: it's not clear yet how the Turkish military will get rid of the terrorist groups controlling some parts of the road.But for now, the province remains the largest refuge of the terrorist group network, the members of which are the radical Islamists from all around the world. In Idlib, there is a large number of the pro-Turkish armed gangs, financially dependent on Ankara and controlled by the Turkish special forces.But it's not that easy with Hay'at Tahrir Al-Sham: the ex Al-Qaeda branch is financed by the Gulf countries and the Al-Nusra fighters are not happy with the negotiation process and the prospects of a peaceful settlement. Moreover, the terrorists do consider the fact that the Turkish military is in Idlib. But how will they react to pressure? Will they voluntarily leave the key points on the front? It's not clear.For now, we'll talk about the current status of the situation. Idlib is home for the radical Islamists of Hay'at Tahrir Al-Sham. The population of most of the region is, in fact, held hostage. From the human rights point of view, Idlib is a black hole. And the Western human rights defenders don't even care about it.Ahmad Muhammad, his wife Rasha, and little son Mohammed escaped Idlib not so long ago: Ahmad saved his child. His story is typical, despite how horrible it sounds, for the population of the province.Ahmad Muhammad: “Four months ago, armed people came to our house, taking our elder son and daughter. They were taken to the child camp where boys are taught radical ideology, and the girls prepared to be the wives of fighters.”The ex Al-Qaeda branch fighters have built around 200 different camps in Idlib. In one, they train suicide bombers, in others, they teach how to manufacture IEDs. There are special camps too, where children are turned into radical fighters. Ahmad's wife tried to find out the location of their son and daughter many times. But she didn't have any success.Rasha Muhammad: “The last time I inquired about the fate of our children, I was punished and publicly flogged. They said: your children are gone. Can you imagine hearing that about your children?”
Ahmad can't hold back his emotions. It's obvious that a frank talk is hard for him.Ahmad Muhammad: “We barely made ends meet. Sometimes, the fighters forced us to work for them for free. As I'm no fighter and nobody in our family is, they obliged us to pay tribute but we had no money for tribute either. Then Vali, the local leader of the gang, ordered me to put a fingerprint on the documents, where I, allegedly, yield my house and workshop in favor of the terrorists.”Ahmad states that the fighters kidnap kids for the benefit of the White Helmets too, moreover, they conduct mass kidnappings. The terrorists want to use them in the staged filming of a chemical attack, as they did in Douma. This filming has already become a common practice. The most frightening thing was the messages that the terrorists will actually poison people with Chlorum this time, for the credibility of the footage.Ahmad Muhammad: “About a month ago, a guy came to me. He is from our village and is in the local gang. He warned me that Al-Nusra would come for my Mohammed the other day. Then we decided to flee.”The Syrian informational agency Sana published a video on social media of the staging of an alleged chemical attack in Idlib, made by the White Helmets in order to blame the government forces for the attack. The video was deleted but the articles remained on the agency's website. We have the video in our hands. There are three variants of the same staged video with minor differences. In the beginning of the video, the alleged victims of a chemical attack lie on the ground. Here's a man in a striped T-shirt. But in the second and the third versions of the video the same man helps others wash a child in a pickup truck.It's known that the British intelligence agencies are behind the White Helmets. And London is not that happy about the agreements between Moscow and Ankara. Now that's also Turkey's problem. How will it cope with the set of problems will become clear in a month.
