Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice called it “Creative Chaos” (1). It’s actually mass-murder. This is what is happening now in Syria, beneath the Al-Qaeda dictatorship installed by the West and its agencies. (2)
Evidence on the ground demonstrates that sectarian terrorism, mass-murder, is rampant, particularly in coastal regions.
Any al Qaeda promises of amnesty (3) appear null and void and Empire is no doubt satisfied, especially when its hidden hand remains concealed and the blame is falsely diverted to Assad or any number of other convenient scape-goats.
The brutal sanctions, the non-stop Western-supported al Qaeda/ISIS terrorism, the seemingly never-ending war, the corruption, this was all imperial design. This is how Empire operates. Corrupt failed states are the goal, it makes looting, plunder, control easy.
It was and is a Regime Change war and the Regime Changed.
The disaster that is Syria is an imperial success story.
The Assad government was not perfect, nor would any government be perfect under similar circumstances, but the chief orchestrator of the current mass-murdering disaster is Washington.
Syria is now fully balkanized, with illegal and on-going occupations by the U.S and its proxies, including SDF and al Qaeda/ISIS, plus Turkey, and Israel.
The next likely fake pretext for the metastasizing imperial occupations will be a variation of the “White Man’s Burden” and/or “War on Terror” themes. Imperial occupiers will argue that the “natives” must be saved from the very terrorists that the West has always supported, covertly and overtly. They must be “saved” from the poverty, the corruption and the sectarian massacres that the West itself has created.
If ever there was an example of imperial lawlessness, or the malign intentions of a “Rules Based Order”, Syria is it.
Imperialists have destroyed a secular, pluralist, democratically-oriented sovereign nation and transformed it into a balkanized failed state. All by design.
