Dat sektarische zal diepgeworteld zijn in deze generatie. De mooie verhalen over een aantal soennitische milities die in Irak nu meehelpen met het leger Daesh te verjagen, als die straks militair verslagen zijn begint het sodemieter gewoon weer opnieuw.quote:Op zondag 19 april 2015 21:53 schreef Aloulu het volgende:

Libanon in het groot ja. Balkan is ook een hele goede vergelijking. In die zin klopt het wel dat als het Syrische regime valt gezien de grote van het land Syrie het hele grote gevolgen kan hebben voor de hele Levant inclusief Irak. Want dat is sterk met elkaar verbonden. De Balkanisering is al ingezet, dus denken dat het nog enigszins "teruggedraaid" kan worden is naief. Zelfs als Assad zou winnen zijn er sterke sektarische zaken in gang gezet die niet meer weggaan. Net zoals dat in Irak het geval is na alleen maar sektarische ellende; soennieten en sjieten gaan daar ook nooit meer door een door kunnen en elkaar normaal vertrouwen.
quote:Syria Daily, April 17: UN Security Council Hears Testimony About Assad’s Chemical Weapons Attacks
In a closed-door session on Thursday, the UN Security Council heard first-hand accounts from Syria’s doctors of the Assad regime’s chemical weapons attacks.
The Council also watched video of the doctors struggling to save children who were vomiting and choking.
One of the doctors, Dr Zaher Sahloul of the Syrian American Medical Society, spoke about the treatment of victims of a chlorine attack in March on Sarmin, near Idlib, in northwest Syria:
Doctors and nurses were struggling to treat them. They all had respiratory symptoms, they had coughs, they had wheezing, some of them had fluid in their lungs.
Another doctor, Mohamed Tennari, said:
The patients had a severe shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing, irritation of the throat and eyes, vomiting and foaming … everyone smelled bleach odour in the air and heard the sounds of helicopters hovering in the skies.
The people in my city [Idlib] and in Syria expect the Security Council to act. We have been dying every day from missiles and barrel bombs — and now toxic agents. Our message to the international community is: please stop this in Syria.
US Ambassador Samantha Power told reporters that members became “very, very emotional” while watching the video: “If there was a dry eye in the room, I didn’t see it.”
Washington has led the effort to condemn the regime for the chemical attacks, which most recently have come through chlorine canisters in barrel bombs. Power said that the Council will now seek to identify those behind the attacks and ensure they face justice.
Power reiterated, “All the evidence shows that [the attacks] come from helicopters — only the Assad regime has helicopters.”
On March 6, the Council passed a resolution expressing “extreme concern” about the attacks and authorizing “Chapter 7″ measures, such as economic restrictions, against anyone found responsible for further use of chemical weapons. However, Russia — a key supporter of the Assad regime — is likely to block any action.
The Assad regime was able to avoid punishment, including military intervention, after its sarin attacks in August 2013 killed close to 2,000 people in the East Ghouta area near Damascus. It promised to hand all chemical weapons stocks for destruction.
However, because of its common domestic uses, chlorine is not classified as a chemical weapon.
Since spring 2014, Syrian warplanes have been accused of using chlorine on a number of occasions in Idlib and Hama Provinces. The Organization for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons found “strong evidence” that helicopters dropped canisters in March and April 2014, killing at least 14 people and wounding hundreds, and again in August.

This week, Human Rights Watch reported on the evidence indicating the regime’s dropping of chlorine last month near Idlib on up to seven occasions, trying to check a rebel advance that eventually took the provincial capital. Six members of a family, including three children, died and more than 100 people were wounded.

quote:A top Syrian diplomat says Damascus will continue to provide Kurdish fighters in Syrian Kurdistan with military and financial support.
Syrian reconciliation minister Ali Haidar told Rudaw he conducted "constructive talks" with Kurdish officials on a recent visit to Syrian Kurdistan, or Rojava, where he met with local officials.
"We have been providing all possible military assistance for the Kurdish forces in order to empower them against terror," Haidar said. "We are still providing them with our support in order to defeat the terrorist organizations," he added.
The Kurdish Democratic Unity Party (PYD) declared autonomy in the three regional cantons of Rojava last year. It has been locked in fierce fighting with the so-called Islamic State (ISIS), and categorically denies any collaboration with Damascus and regards the Syrian government as "oppressive."
Haidar said he assured his Kurdish hosts in Rojava of the Syrian government's support for talks about a range of issues, including the political status of Rojava "within Syria."
"The response from the Kurdish officials was positive," the minister said. "They told me their project (for self-rule) could be revised and altered since all the projects are designed to find a solution within the sovereign state of Syria."
With a population exceeding 1 million, Rojava is currently a Kurdish administrated region divided into three cantons. The PYD and its armed wing the Peoples' Protection Unit (YPG) are the authorities in the enclave.
PYD has denied links with the Syrian regime, though no clashes have taken place between them and the Syrian army since the uprising began in 2011.
"Qamishloo is Syrian soil," Haidar said, referring to the Syrian city in Rojava where his meeting took place. "My trip was an effort to alleviate any danger and to repair bridges between the Syrian leadership and the people of this area more profoundly," he said.
Regarding Kurdish flags hoisted at checkpoints in Rojava, the minister said his government had no objection as long as "everything remains within a united Syria."
Haidar said he had also been in talks with other groups in the region, including the Christians and the Arabs of the region.

Four civilians injured in terrorist mortar attack in Labeen village in Sweidaquote:Residents of the ancient Syrian town of Ma’lula celebrated the first anniversary of their town’s liberation from the al-Qaeda-linked Takfiri militants, Press TV reports.
The residents of Ma’lula were able to return to their homes in April last year, after the Syrian army forces and Hezbollah fighters cleared the town, which is home to the region’s oldest Christian communities.
“Al-Nusra Front’s militants were burning tires and would throw them over our homes. They also kidnapped our sons, but the Syrian army got us out of the town and removed elders by tanks. They then liberated the town and we got back here on April 10, 2014,” Ma’lula resident Fadel Semaan said.
Residents say the militants killed many people in the area and destroyed many of its ancient Islamic and Christian religious structures.
Semaan added that the Takfiri terrorists burned a church in the town and stole valuable items inside.
“Terrorists deprived Ma’lula from its visitors, they destroyed our mosques and churches, and displaced our families,” Ma’lula official Elias Habib said.
The al-Nusra Front militants attacked Ma’lula in September 2013, forcing many of its 5,000 residents to flee.
The town is of strategic significance to militants who have been trying to gain control over the Syrian capital, Damascus. It is also home to Mar Sarkis and Mar Takla, two of the oldest surviving monasteries in Syria.
Over 3.8 million Syrians have left their country since the beginning of the crisis in March 2011. More than 7.2 million Syrians have also become internally displaced, according to the United Nations.

A source at the Police Command said that terrorists launched nine mortar shells, five of which fell on a road linking Labeen and Jareen villages, causing material damage, while the remaining four shells fell in a residential area in Labeen village, injuring four locals who were rushed to Sweida National hospital.
The source added that the shells, which also caused material damages to a number of houses in Labeen village, were launched from the eastern countryside of Daraa province where terrorists from Jabhat al-Nusra and al-Muthanna movement are active.
