Μαρτυρία: Οι Σύριοι αντάρτες χρησιμοποίησαν χημικά όπλα (όχι ο Ασσαντ)
Evidence: Syrian Rebels used Chemical Weapons (not Assad)
By Walid Shoebat and Ben Barrack
Recent news of a chemical weapons attack in
Syria smacks of desperation. The question comes down to who is most desperate
right now, the Assad regime or the Muslim Brotherhood rebels? Consider that
since June, Assad’s forces have been winning. According to a CBS News
report from last
month, victories for the rebels had become “increasingly rare” and that the
Muslim Brotherhood-backed opposition fighters were sustaining “some of their
heaviest losses” near Damascus.
Saudi Chemicals in hands of Syrian
Rebels
The New York Times echoed this sentiment, even saying
that before gaining the upper hand, concerns were that Assad would use chemical
weapons; he did not.
In fact, even before Assad’s forces gained the
momentum, a UN official reportedly found evidence of rebels using chemical
weapons but no evidence Assad’s regime did. This, from a Washington
Times article by
Shaun Waterman dated May 6, 2013:
Testimony from victims strongly
suggests it was the rebels, not the Syrian government, that used Sarin nerve
gas during a recent incident in the revolution-wracked nation, a
senior U.N. diplomat said Monday.
Carla del Ponte, a member of the
U.N. Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria, told Swiss TV
there were “strong, concrete suspicions but not yet incontrovertible proof,”
that rebels seeking to oust Syrian strongman Bashar al-Assad had used the nerve
agent.
But she said her panel had not
yet seen any evidence of Syrian government forces using chemical weapons,
according to the BBC, but she added that more investigation was needed.
{emphasis ours}
Today, while the rebels are more desperate than
they were at the time of that article, evidence of rebels using chemical
weapons is available; evidence Assad’s regime has used them is not.

Rebel Free Syrian Army spokesman
Louay Almokdad denied that rebels had use chemical weapons.
That doesn’t square with a video uploaded on
August 23, 2013, in which Free Syrian operatives threatened to launch chemical
weapons:
A day later, on August 24th, a video was
uploaded and featured on facebook that purports to show Syrian rebels loading
what very well may be a rocket armed with some sort of chemical agent. The tip
of the rocket is armed with a light blue tank or canister that very well
contains a nerve agent. At the end of this video, two separate launches of
these rockets can be seen:
This video from a Syrian TV news report claims
to show chemicals (some of labels on these chemicals are in English) and
weapons seized by the Syrian government in the rebel stronghold of Jobar. Note
at the :10 mark a label that reads:
“Saudi Factory for Chlorine and
Alkalies”
In this video, two Syrian rebels (Muslim
Brotherhood gang) can be heard coordinating an attack on a nearby building. As
smoke billows a short distance from the building, a rebel on the ground can be
heard directing someone – presumably at the source of the launch – to change
his direction. At that point, the rebel from the launch point can be heard
talking about using sarin gas next:
In this video of a Russia Today news report
originally broadcast on or before June 16, 2013, testimony from a United
Nations panel is reported to demonstrate that rebel groups – not the Assad
regime – was responsible for the use of chemical weapons in general, Sarin gas
in particular, which backs up the claims in the previous video. Those who
attempt to discredit the report below because it is from Russia Today should
have difficulty doing so when factoring in rebels above talking about using
sarin gas:
It’s
significant to consider that the rebels were reportedly using chemical weapons
at a time when Assad was more desperate than he is now. Again, why would Assad
use chemical weapons now and not then? Who is more desperate at this point in
the conflict?
The
answer is, the Muslim Brotherhood rebels, who have no problem killing
themselves (or their own) if the cause of Islam is moved forward.
Even
CNN
International,
which has typically been quick to report favorably for the Muslim Brotherhood
rebels, is hedging its bets lately, when it comes to who is responsible for the
attack. Here is a video report from Frederik Pleitgen in which he leaves the
possibility open that the rebels may have perpetrated or staged the attack:
Back in March, we chronicled
evidence of
chemical weapons being used by the Syrian rebels. Unfortunately, since google
terminated Theodore’s YouTube account, most of the videos in that post have
been deleted and have been more than a little difficult to find.
Running concurrent with the tide that turned in
Assad’s favor a few months ago was another defeat for the Muslim Brotherhood –
in Egypt. That defeat has been taking place ever since Mohammed Mursi was
ousted on July 3rd. So why would Assad use chemical weapons now and not months
ago, when his situation was much more precarious?
As the Associated
Press was reporting
that the U.S. is moving ships closer to Syria in response to the alleged
chemical weapons attack, Reuters reported that Assad’s army found
chemical weapons in tunnels that had been used by the rebels, according to
Syrian state television.
Oxford University historian Mark Almond granted
Russia Today an interview and explained both why
western nations are so willing to blame Assad and why rebels would have a
motive to murder their own people. In response to a question about why the
U.S., the U.K., and France appear so eager to blame Assad, Almond said:
“Western governments… want to say
‘Gotcha’. They have been demanding the fall of Assad for more than
two-and-a-half years now and it has become increasingly frustrating that his
regime has shown much more resilience than they had expected, despite the
resources that they and the Gulf Kingdoms have thrown into the war on the other
side.
It is also like a distraction from
the embarrassment of Egypt, where we see the European and the US governments
basically using weasel words to avoid any kind of condemnation of a massacre in
the streets of Cairo. So there are both the specifics of Syria and the context
of what is going on elsewhere in the Arab world, especially in Egypt.”
Almond gives a very interesting answer to the
question about why the rebels would intentionally gas their own people:
“We do have some very radical groups
who would no doubt say, as they have when they have been challenged about using
suicide bombers, killing innocent people, that God will recognize his own when
the dead die, that he will save for heaven the justified victims and just send
to hell the wicked supporters of Assad. So it is not impossible that somebody
has staged this.
Consider that a man many of the Syrian rebels
show the utmost of reverence for is the Muslim Brotherhood’s spiritual leader,
Yusuf Al-Qaradawi. When writing about a Muslim tactic known as Muruna, Qaradawi expressed when it is
acceptable for Muslims to kill fellow Muslims:
“…killing Muslims whom the
unbelievers use as shields… leaving these unbelievers is a danger to the
Muslims, so it is permissible to kill these unbelievers even if Muslims are
killed with them in the process.” – The Case FOR Islamophobia, p. 56
Of course, if the rebels are desperate enough,
Muruna could sanction the murder of their own people if it meant bearing false
witness and a blood libel that would engage external forces that want Assad
removed. As things stand today, the rebels are more desperate than is the Assad
regime.
Specific examples include the staged death of twelve year-old Muhammad Al-Dura
by Palestinians. Whether the child was used as a prop in a Palestinian
blood-libel or was actually killed, he was clearly put in danger by
Palestinians who shot at him as the news cameras rolled for a false report that
aired on France 2. They wanted to blame the Israelis.
Earlier this month in Egypt, Muslim Brotherhood
supporters were caught behaving as
victims of oppression
at the hands of the military. They might have gotten away with it if nothing
but still shots were taken. Unfortunately for these miscreants, video was recorded that revealed a staged, mass
display of despicable behavior.
Syria’s Muslim Brotherhood rebels would never
get away with launching chemical weapons and taking credit for it. They’d have
to do so while blaming Assad. It’s straight out of the Nazi playbook and a
violation of two major commandments – Thou shalt not murder and thou shalt not
bear false witness. However, the Muslim Brotherhood, as usual, provides more
evil spin. It bears false witness while committing murder in order to push an
agenda.
Lying, bearing false witness, blood libel, and
murder.
Yeah,
that smells like the Brotherhood.
