US Tells Deplorable Syrian Terrorist Allies It’s Okay to Shoot at Russian and Syrian Forces During Ceasefire

These terrorists are moderate good boys.

Well, this didn’t take long.

After agreeing to a ceasefire on Friday, the US has delivered a letter to Syrian terrorists telling them that it’s still okay to shoot at Russian and Syrian forces.

RT:

Washington has called on the Syrian armed opposition to stick to the milestone US-Russia deal, calling on militants to part ways with Al-Nusra or face repercussions, a letter written by the US special envoy to Syria said. It reportedly promised rebels a right to retaliate.

Addressing unspecified “armed Syrian opposition factions,” Michael Ratney wrote that the US is awaiting a “confirmation” from rebels that they are “ready to commit” to the Friday agreement. It hails the breakthrough deal struck by US and Russia on Friday as the “best way” to decrease the number of casualties. The letter, which is in Arabic, was seen by AFP and Reuters.

The ceasefire, which the deal implies must begin on September 12 and last for at least 7 days to hold, promises to be “more effective” than in similar agreements in the past, Ratney argued, commending a clause prohibiting Syrian air forces to conduct combat missions in certain areas controlled by opposition fighters.

If such raids, carried out either by Syrian or Russian planes, do take place, the rebels will be eligible to mount counter-attacks in self defense, said the letter, according to Reuters.

This is the setup for the exact same “NUH-UH HE HIT ME FIRST” situation which collapsed the last ceasefire in February.

What’s more, the moderate terrorists of the FSA is openly announcing they aren’t going to try to break alliances with the non-moderate terrorists of Al-Nusra, because it would be too complicated as the groups are merged.

While the separation of so-called moderate rebels from hardline militants like former Al-Nusra is considered to be one of the cornerstones of the deal, the reaction from a representative of the Turkey-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA), the leading rebel military force, suggests this task is hardly enforceable.

“Fateh al-Sham is a faction present on the ground and it takes part in most of the military operations, and the matter of separating it is not possible, particularly given that there are attempts to merge, within some factions, with Fateh al-Sham,” Fares al-Bayoush, commander of the FSA unit “Northern Division” said, as cited by Reuters.

The FSA also admitted that last time the truce didn’t work because they got bombed for being ISIS.

Meanwhile, another FSA official, legal adviser Osama Abu Zeid, said that the implementation of an envisaged truce depends on the actions of the Syrian government, which, he claimed, violated previous ceasefires by attacking the “moderate opposition under the pretext of fighting Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL).”

Abu Zeid told RIA Novosti that the rebels are ready to uphold the deal on their end but there was no “optimism” about the ceasefire holding.

The Saudis like the deal, presumably because they are allowed to keep attacking Assad while he isn’t allowed to respond.

The Saudi-backed High Negotiations Committee, which represents over 30 opposition groups and individuals, welcomed the deal, with one member, Bassma Kodmani issuing a statement calling Russia’s ability to influence the Syrian government a key, on which its viability is dependent.

“We welcome the deal if it is going to be enforced. What if Russia doesn’t pressure the regime, because that is the only way get the regime to comply,” she wrote, adding that the group is “absolutely in favor of it [the deal]”

For its part, Syrian government has already committed to the demands of the deal.

Anyway.

All stupid and pointless.

The only way the Syrian conflict is going to end is if all of the terrorists – moderate, non-moderate and anything in between – are wiped out and Assad is given control of the entire country.
