The Syrian Iraqi resolving with the Sultan of illusion

Written by Nasser Kandil,

Since the failure of its two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Washington realized that the first thing it must learn is to confine its military action with the limits of the legitimate legal coverage, so it linked its intervention in Libya with the coverage by the Security Council, it hesitated a lot in its intervention in Syria due to the absence of this coverage by the dual Russian Chinese veto, and it was satisfied with forming the coalition against ISIS through its agreements with the Iraqi government  and its commitment not to get involved in targeting the Syrian army in its air processes in Syria, but when it did that in the raid of Deir Al Zour, it hastened to apologize , it described that as a mistake even as a political tempering. It has restricted its processes with ISIS on the basis of avoiding the practical collision with the Syrian country which has described the US role with illegitimate, but it did not develop the situation to collision. The Americans have shown their desire to reach to an understanding with Moscow on the military coordination since it is a kind of the legitimacy derived from the Russian Syrian agreements that give a relative legitimacy to this US role. The US Secretary of State John Kerry did not hide in his meeting with the delegates of the Syrian opposition in New York according to the leaked recording through The New York Times the inability of his government to escalate as Russia, because it does not have the legal legitimate coverage to intervene as owned by Moscow.

Turkey behaved with the accident of dropping the Russian aircraft arrogantly, while Washington did not adopt it in the raid of Deir Al Zour, till the observer thinks that Turkey is the greatest country in the world, and when Turkey returned humiliated apologizing to Moscow and begging to resume the relations, it tried to accumulate behaviors that grant it a special military position in Syria and later in Iraq, once under the slogan of the war on terrorism, which Ankara knows as the world knows its role in its sponsor and ensuring the conditions and the force for its formations. And once under the slogan of the Turkish national security which is related once to the defending for Turkmen communities in Syria and Iraq, they are Syrian and Iraqi citizens, while Ankara is interfering in Syria and Iraq under the pretext of its responsibility for their security and future, and once by chasing the armed Kurdish groups in Iraq and preventing the form of a bordered Kurdish line between Syria and Turkey in which the Kurdish groups that are opponent to Turkey are living there. Ankara refused all the endeavors of a political understanding proposed by Moscow and Tehran to ensure this concept of its security and to repel the dangers which threaten it, by the cooperation with the Syrian and Iraqi governments. It insisted on the right of intervention without their knowing and against their will, so it hid behind the slogan of the coalition which is led by Washington against ISIS, but when it was given up from the opportunities of coverage, it avowed publicly of bullying, hooliganism, and saying publicly that it will do what it finds suitable, it assails the sovereignty of the two countries under the pretext of their internal circumstances and claiming their inability to stick to the geography of their countries, so it was obliged to do what its security needs in this uncontrolled geography. It is know that the escaping and idleness have been occurred under official Turkish sponsorship of opening the borders in front of the armed groups which are tempering in the security of the two countries.

During the last month the Syrian and the Iraqi governments followed gradual steps in combating the Turkish riot and in confronting the temper which is practiced by the sultan of the Ottoman illusion who remembered the state of Mosul, the state of Aleppo and the sultanate of Seljuk in his public speech. After the Iraqi government had opened a diplomatic war on the Turkish incursion, got the support of the UN Security Council for its sovereignty, lifting the US coverage off Ankara’s claims of working under the slogan of the international coalition and made the Turkish presence without any coverage, as well as after it had indicated to a national popular resistance against that presence as a foreign occupation, and after the Syrian government had issued a statement in which it threatened Turkey of violating its airspaces, and after the Turkish raid which caused a massacre against the civilians of the Kurds of Syria, the high leadership of the armed forces have announced their intention to drop any Turkish aircraft entering the Syrian airspaces, in conjunction with Russian announcement of supplying Syria with missiles S-300 in response to the US threats of military action against the Syrian army, after it was clear that any Turkish incursion needs air coverage especially toward the battles which the Turks are preparing themselves for in the northern of Syria under the slogan of the Euphrates shield, taking from ISIS a plea and from the Kurds a goal, therefore, their approaching made them on the lines of the deployment of the Syrian army and on the outskirts of the city of Aleppo which has a strategic value.

Yesterday the Syrian army has implemented the first raids on the sites of the traitors of the Turks who work under the title of the Free Army and the process of the Euphrates shield, but within the ground engagement between the Euphrates shield and the Kurdish groups the Syrian army said that it will combat to any Turkish approaching from the sites of the Syrian Army’s allies re-giving the Kurdish groups the title of allies after a period of staleness that caused by the wrong bets by the Kurdish groups on the Americans,  who have let them down in Jarablos and have negotiated on their presence with the Turks. But the Vice President Joe Biden tried to affect the Iraqis in his negotiation in Ankara, but the Iraqis have depressed him by their stability on the sovereignty lines and refusing what Biden called as an understanding. In conjunction with the start of Syria of its field deterrence against the Turkish hooliganism, the Iraqi popular crowd has announced its progress towards Tal Afar which is located in the west of the city of Mosul and which ISIS wants to cross it toward the Syrian borders, and in which there is the biggest proportion of Turkmen whom the Turks take them as pleas for their intervention, as well as they take from the role of the popular crowd and the intimidation of the dangers of sectarian war a plea for their intervention. Thus the Turkish test becomes expensive, either by the stubbornness towards expanding the intervention and to make it half of a war or maybe an entire war or the regression and accepting the disappointment and thus stopping at the limits of their current presence which will lose its legitimacy and prestige and becomes a matter of time.

The Syrian and the Iraqi initiatives show a high quiet coordination between the two countries, coordination between them and the Russian and the Iranian allies, and about the value of the national sovereignty according to the two leaderships as well as the national courage which characterized them in these difficult situations. All of these will lead to decisions as the preparation to discipline Erdogan as a scoundrel who tempers in the equations of the security of the region and the borders of its countries, where he desecrated the concepts of the sovereignty and disesteems the countries, their symbols, armies and people.
