Confusing the US change by using the chemical weapons

Written by Nasser Kandil,

The alliance of losers in the war on Syria will not lay down its weapons, confess of facts, and will not move from the bank of obstinacy to the bank of realism, because the loss is existential and the coexistence with it is not possible, as Turkey which its regional status falls through its defeat and the fall of its project from the Syrian gate, and Saudi Arabia which knows that its Gulf leadership lives the crisis of Yemen, moreover the gate of its eastern presence is drawn by the future of the war on Syria and what it considers as a fixed balance in Lebanon, and as Israel which does not concern about its security as much it concerns about its existence. Every forthcoming settlement after the recovery of Syria will be a full Israeli defeat and every war will be an issue of existence according to Israel.

After the victory of Aleppo and the joining of Turkey to Astana process, it was proven that the bet is still on a subsequent round which is being prepared as was the preparation for the war of Aleppo on the days of the truce a year ago during Geneva negotiations. The visits of Benjamin Netanyahu and Mohammed Bin Salman to Washington were translated by the new invasion; Israeli raids and the comprehensive attacks of Al Nusra front in all the fronts along with all the factions which the Turks said that they brought them to Astana path, which entitled the separation from Al Nusra. The bet which was held in Washington makes this last chance in case if it was achieved an enough reason for the prevention of Washington from translating the seeking to amplify the war on ISIS into a Syrian political settlement that re-cures the Syrian country under the leadership of its president from within a partnership equation with the opposition.

The outcome after the Syrian deterrent missiles and the crucial Russian position toward the Israeli raids was a deterrence equation which Israeli is still finding confusion in its understanding and how to deal with it, while Al Nusra has received a shocking response by the repelling of more than ten thousand of its fighting elite supported by seventeen thousand armaments and the groups which withdrew from Syria and which were gathered in Idlib. The Syrian army accompanied with its allies has succeeded in a record time to re-have control over the areas which were controlled by the attackers, so a counter attack has started and still. Therefore, the bet fell and the opportunity was missed, and the repercussions which depend on the victory became great.

The stability of the political and military balance of powers says that the intention of the project of overthrowing Syria has become as committing suicide of its owners, so Washington decided to be far from its allies which are moving towards their suicide, it announced that it neither considers overthrowing the regime in Syrian nor the presidency in it a priority for it, it has repeated that on all its platforms, so the feeling of disappointment and the abandonment of the vanquished has increased especially Turkey, Israel, and Saudi Arabia, therefore, the concern of those became confusing the changing US position and preventing its transition into policies that are translated into an openness to the Syrian country and a cooperation with it in the war on terrorism, it has become the only chance for Washington for making victory, so what has happened in Ghouta by Hillary Clinton is happening in Idlib to provoke the western public opinion in general and the American one in particular with the game of the chemical weapons, so as a result there were statements, threats, and warnings which apparently they are directed to Syria but in fact they are directed to Washington.

The White House has accelerated to condemn what has happened in Idlib, adding its denouncing and anxiety, but it affirms at the same time the need to achieve that the overthrowing of the regime and the presidency in Syria is no longer on the agenda. Washington which knows how the game of chemical in the first time was made knows how others are made, just for that it tried till now to keep its steadfastness and the stability of its position, but the alliance of losers have effective US cards that it will use them and will not surrender easily, since it wages a struggle between death and life, and the conflict is still open and all the possibilities are conceivable.
