Opinion: Who is behind Assad’s departure in Syria, who benefits from the coup?

Author:Rajeev Dogra
Wesley Clark was a very famous American general. At the peak of his/her career, he/she went to the White House for some work. From there went to Pentagon. Going to the Pentagon, he/she saw that some generals were seriously fiddling around with a map. he/she asked, brother, what are you doing? On this, a junior general said, Sir, we have just received a message from Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, who has asked us to make a plan to destabilize seven countries in the next five years. General Clark later said in one of his/her books Wrote about this incident in I that he/she was surprised that the American government was planning to destabilize the governments of seven countries. Bashar al-Assad’s decades-long rule in Syria appears to be coming to an end, but this is not the case today. All this was going on for many years, but there was no success. This time Turkey and America knew that this was the right opportunity to increase the rebel groups.

America’s chance

Therefore Turkey and America are behind this development. The surprising thing is that America does not even see the lessons learned from history. he/she destabilized the Soviet Union, created Al Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan. This is why the 9/11 terrorist attacks occurred. Now he/she saw that Russia is still stuck in Ukraine. Russia will no longer be able to help as much as it did earlier in fighting against Assad’s rebel groups in Syria.

The way Russia has also been involved in Syria, now the Russian army will not be able to hold its own there. In such a situation, America saw this as an opportunity. But he/she should also think that Russia’s focus on Syria and its army there will now be deployed on the Ukraine front. It is true that Russia has suffered a loss in Syria, but it is also an opportunity for it on the Ukraine front.

advantage of turkey

On the other hand, Turkey had a big advantage in that it had already captured a large part of the territory along the Syrian border. The Turks did not like the Kurdish people living there, so they controlled them a lot. Turkey has also carried out many operations inside Syria in the past. Erdoğan is playing such a role that sometimes it seems that he/she wants to create a new form of Ottoman Empire. First he/she tried to dominate in Central Asia, but did not succeed. Then they felt that the area nearby should be captured first. So they tried in the area adjacent to them in Iraq, but failed in that also. However, now if he/she becomes successful in the way he/she has supported the rebel groups in Syria, then his/her wish will surely reach some level.

Syrian terrorists

If we talk about Syrian rebel groups, they should be considered as terrorist organizations only. America had already placed a reward of 10 million dollars on the head of the leader of his/her group. Only time will tell its outcome, but as Hillary Clinton had said, if you keep a snake, it will bite you sooner or later. So I don’t think everything will be fine in Syria now.

apprehensions of evil

There is a question whether destabilizing any country, be it Bangladesh or Syria, has ever been beneficial or will ever be beneficial. Be it Iraq or Libya, both were stable countries which have been destroyed by America. They should have learned a lesson from today’s situation in Iraq and Afghanistan, which they have not done. Syria’s destabilization may be temporarily good for Israel, but the kind of forces that are emerging there, the kind of terrorist organizations that America has created, it does not seem that anything good will happen.

be careful india

As far as India is concerned, we will not be directly affected, but India will have to keep an eye on the developments taking place in this matter. India will also have to think and keep in mind that if America can bring instability in Bangladesh again in Syria, then it is difficult to say that its attention should not be elsewhere. How to avoid that gaze is a matter to think about. India is not directly connected to Syria, it is not our neighbor like Bangladesh. Still, what is happening in Syria should be seen as a link to what has already happened in Iraq and Libya.

increasing tension

Overall, there is a very large geographical area which if it remains unstable, where there is no government, then its consequences can fall anywhere. There is a war going on in large areas in West Asia between Israel-Hamas, Israel-Lebanon, Israel-Iran and Israel-Houthi, which has not stopped yet. It is true that a temporary agreement has been reached with Lebanon, but it is difficult to say how long the ceasefire will last. The tension prevailing in West Asia does not seem to be ending due to the incident in Syria.

leader problem

There is a competition going on in the Islamic world. If we talk about a few years ago, Egypt was the leader in this field. After that came Saudi Arabia because it had the power of money. Now Turkey is coming forward because it has military power. Now, it is difficult to say how long Turkey will continue its moves there, but this is not a good sign for West Asia.
