Stability in Syria: whose concern?

In recent days, in Washington DC, 79 members of the anti-DEAŞ coalition, in which Turkey was also represented by Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, came together and put the DAEŞ terror and the Syrian issue on the table. The news of the meeting was in a way announced as an assessment meeting at which DAEŞ's death notice would be issued. What was discussed, what kind of assessments were made, is in fact not very important.

We know it very clearly and plainly, because we have actually seen it and lived it. The fight against DAEŞ did nothing but serve, at one stage of the fight against Assad, the real big problem in Syria, as an operation that arrived as a lifebuoy for Assad.

Here, Assad, who ruthlessly slaughtered nearly a million of his own people, forced 12 million people to leave their homes, and burned and destroyed their homes and cities, is still standing, because at one stage everyone united on the view that the real problem was not Assad but DAEŞ, and today, although its death notice is being issued, the real problem that also gave birth to DAEŞ stands in the middle, and Assad is no longer even on the agenda of these 79 countries.

So, how many DAEŞ terrorists did the fight against DAEŞ as a terrorist organization eliminate? In return, does anyone know how many civilian, innocent Syrian women and children, civilian people died in the name of the fight against DAEŞ?

In order to clear Raqqa of DAEŞ, no city called Raqqa was left. Just like the joke. You know, the one where a man's idiot friend kills a fly that has landed on his forehead with a bullet and says "one for you, one for us"? With one difference, of course: these are not idiots. Their very intent is to kill people; they can use even a fly stuck to a person's forehead as a pretext.

Thus, under the pretext of DAEŞ, in Raqqa and other cities, not a stone was left upon a stone, not a head upon a head. In the end Raqqa was indeed cleared of DAEŞ, but no city called Raqqa remained, and PKK-YPG militants were settled in the ruins that remained.

Moreover, the final clearing of Raqqa of DAEŞ was strangely achieved not by the elimination of DAEŞ militants but by seeing them off from Raqqa, quid pro quo, under the supervision, protection, even with ceremonies, of YPG and ABD soldiers.

So why were the ruined cities ruined, why were those killed killed? What contribution did this make to the Syrian people? Since we saw neither the death nor the elimination of DAEŞ, what was DAEŞ turned into? For which task, to where, and under what guise has it been assigned?

While these questions hang in the air, on what constructive ground, and negotiating what, will the 79 countries be able to act in the anti-DAEŞ coalition?

Also, at the place where the 79 countries gathered for this purpose, 7 countries held a separate meeting and discussed the future of Syria. According to the press statement published on the website of the ABD State Department, the Foreign Ministers of the ABD, Egypt, France, Germany, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom came together, addressed the Syrian issue separately and expressed their own separate views. The statement especially emphasizes "the wrongness of seeking a military solution" in Syria and says that support will be given to the efforts the BM is making to bring peace and a solution. The statement was reflected in our press yesterday under the headline "7 countries moved against Turkey to position their own forces in the region."

Truthfully, the statement does not directly mention Turkey's name, but with the emphasis "We strongly believe that those who want to destabilize the region or seek a military solution will only escalate tension in the region and increase the risk of conflict," the inference has been made that "those seeking an armed solution" means Turkey. Even if Turkey's name is not mentioned, it is no secret that in many circles it is thought and said by these countries that Turkey is meant.

Anyone hearing this would think that everyone in Syria is only seeking a political solution for peace and only Turkey favors an armed solution. It is true that Turkey has declared that it will not hesitate to use every right of defense against efforts to have a terrorist organization set up a mini-state by a fait accompli on Turkey's Syrian borders. But what does this have to do with wanting an armed solution?

Isn't the real armed intervention here the very act of equipping, with tens of thousands of truckloads of weapons, a terrorist organization no different from DAEŞ? What does it mean to expect Turkey to remain a spectator against those who do this? Do you think only you are clever and the rest of the world is stupid?

Besides, has talking about Syria's stability fallen to the last of the seven to be able to make the accusation of destabilizing Syria?

In contrast to these countries, whose every intervention has brought only death, massacre, deportation and destruction, all of Turkey's interventions in Syria have brought only humanitarian intervention, aid and repair. Look at the result of the two military interventions Turkey has made so far, Euphrates Shield and Olive Branch. After both interventions, not a single servant of God had to emigrate from these areas, and so far nearly 300 thousand Syrians who had previously had to emigrate have returned and settled in these regions.

Here is the result of Turkey's military intervention and of your military interventions that you carry out together with intrigues of discord and depravity.

The bill for every intervention that you carry out or support is first paid by the Syrian people with their lives, their property and their homeland; then Turkey pays it by accepting the waves of migration that you have created and by repairing the wounds.

Today the whole world watches with awe and loathing the results of your interventions in Yemen, Libya, Egypt, Iraq. You have drowned the world in discord and corruption, and you are still not sated.

Be ashamed a little and return to your humanity, if any remains!
