Do you hear Al Jubeir’s voice: Al-Assad will leave by force?
Written by Nasser Kandil,
When the truth is needed to be uttered the formations of the Syrian opposition keep silent and turn toward their leaders as Washington, Ankara, and Riyadh especially to ask them why did you let us involved in raising the limits of the slogans above our ability to achieve them, then you withdrew and stood seeing us burning, wailing, crying, and talking about imbalance in the military scene and about the army, the regime, its military capacity, and the capacity of the allies and their stood with it powerfully unlike our wavering allies, those who are afraid of getting involved in a war that they do not want to bear its consequences, pretending to have forgotten how many lies they have repeated before, and how many opportunities that were wishes for other stronger and of wider representation oppositions have lost.
The formations of the Syrian opposition pretend to have forgotten that they have repeatedly promoted the collapse of the country and the army in Syria, and about a president who packed his bags in preparation to leave. They have promoted repeatedly equations about buying and selling in each of Moscow and Tehran and about approaching changes in which the allies will abandon the president and the leadership in Damascus by the force of resorting to the interests which are represented by the relationship with the West and the rulers of the Gulf. These formations pretend to have forgotten as well that they have repeated as parrots what they have heard in Washington, Paris, London, Ankara, Riyadh, and Doha while they were swaggering of money and property about that the days of Al-Assad are countable, about the storm of the South, the storm of the North, and the approaching of the hour of the entry to Damascus in order the conqueror Recep Erdogan prays as he promised them in Omayyad mosque, after they greet with shrills Saad Al-Hariri in Damascus airport participating in the festival, before his return across Damascus to Beirut.
The deaf, blind, and mute formations of the opposition put their anger on the regime, army, and on the president, whom they do not dare to say that what they accuse them of doing today does not go beyond the descriptions of killing and crime which they called them with, justifying their continuous revolution till the martyrdom or the victory, they have not an argument for what it can be said today about the descriptions that justify their failure, because the revolution which says that it fights a regime of killing and murder cannot claim that it fails and be defeated because it did not take into consideration the killing and the crime, so how can these formations justify how they became other than the stupidity, blindness, and the surrender to the leadership of the foreign without taking into consideration the minimum facts, seeing the possible, and the prudence in the extremism to an extent that it is impossible to continue going into it.
Today the formations of the opposition do not admit that they made a mistake in reading the Russian position which they expected repeatedly its abandoning of Syria, army and leadership. They have promoted and built illusions and dreams about the occurrence of that moment till the speech of this opposition becomes about Russia as the first enemy, these naive formations as well do not admit of their naivety when they imagined that Iran may abandon its ally in Syria, they ignore that they have not stopped the bet on the change of Iran’s position asking for the cordiality of the countries of Gulf and Washington from behind, especially in the sludge of the negotiation on the Iranian nuclear program. These leaderships of the opposition do not admit that they have promoted for the participation of the fighters of Al-Qaeda organization before the separation of the formations of Al Nusra and ISIS from their military body and have their own project, having control on the formations of what the opposition called it its free army. They do not dare to recognize that for five years ago they were mere a stupid tool for all the countries of the West, Gulf, Turkey, and Israel on one hand and as a horse on which the formations of Al-Qaeda ride and use it to expand their influence in the geography and among the people on the other hand, till this opposition became as a scarecrow which the farmers make to protect their fields from the monsters, it is mere a wood that wears a dress which they call it in the villages as the ” imagination of the desert”.
Today the formations of the opposition confront a true hour without the presence of whom getting out among its ranks to ask the Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir who has become the philosopher of the opposition and its master about his famous slogan” Al-Assad has to leave otherwise he will leave by force.” Is not it the time for this force Mr. Al-Jubeir?” there is no one among the ranks of the opposition who asks Al-Jubeir, “after you have foreshadowed us of plan “B” so what are you waiting for putting it into effect, before we are at the last grasp,? Or whether the plan “B” is a plan of condoling of the opposition before burying it or maybe after it?” There is no one among the ranks of the opposition who asks “as long as we and our allies below the level of the major military confrontation which is occurring now so why we have raised the limits so high and have lifted the ladders on which we ascend and threw them to the opposite side of the sea? So now we are neither able to descend, nor we can stay in the high roofs, nor there is who can give us a boat of escape to jump into.
If there were among the leaders of this opposition a man who has just remnants of acumen or a woman that has just some morals, then they would emerge to ask what if it was proposed to the fighting Yemeni opposition what was proposed to us. It is an opposition that has withstood militarily in front of the Saudi tool, it has not neighboring borders that it resorts to and gets the help by money, men, equipment, weapons through them. The limit of what it accepts is a political solution that admits of its partnership in a unified government that prepares the country for elections. This was proposed repeatedly to the Syrian opposition, which has insisted on what is not proposed on other opposition between the bilateral of the military solution which suffers of its inability of bearing its fire today, and a political solution that starts with the departure of the president which it does not dare to confront him in the ballot boxes and does not have the ability to overthrow him by force, neither by its force nor by the force of its allies or its partners in Al-Qaeda organization after these three have gathered for years but they have failed.
Any young man who believed the leaders of this opposition and is not a mercenary or a monster that his hands smudged with the blood of the innocent people asks do we advance as a pretext of justifying the failure of the honesty of Russia and Iran with their ally and the lie of our allies to us, or because we have said that the regime is cruel. we have known that it is not like that, our argument today is that we did not expect its cruelty or our argument is that we have brought the force of the coalition of the Americans and Al-Qaeda organization but the coalition has fallen between them, so we fell in the well, or because we have lost the opportunities of the political solution through a dialogue that ends with a government then with elections, and we have stuck to a military solution, the regime was the most capable of it and it was mercy, but we have thought that its mercy is a weakness so we were at ease, and when the hour strikes we started to scream, wail, and cry?
The leaders of the Syrian opposition without exception worth the curse of history and stoning as an adulterer and adulteress, because they have committed adultery with our bride on her wedding day, then they have sold it in the slavery market, and have vandalized the most beautiful and the greatest and the most important and strongest and purest Arab countries.
