Join the Global Campaign to Life the US / European Siege on Syria

A global campaign is being organized to lift the western illegal and inhumane sanctions imposed on the Syrian people, you are invited to join the campaign, join a sit-in in your city, or at least share the information to spread awareness.

The Syrian people have been combating the world's worst sort of terrorism on behalf of all humanity for the past 12 years, tens of thousands of anti-Islamic Muslim Brotherhood and Wahhabi terrorists were sent to Syria from across the planet to kill and maim the Syrian people and destroy their country.

The same western countries sponsoring the terrorists have imposed some of the most inhumane sanctions on the Syrian people, sanctions affect the most vulnerable in the societies targeted.

In addition to forces from NATO, the 'defensive alliance' occupy one-third of the country which 'coincidentally' happens to be the region that has the main oil and gas fields and the fertile agricultural lands in Syria.

On top of all of that, Syria, especially the northern and coastal regions were struck by the devastating double earthquake on the 6th of February, last month killing, and injuring hundreds of people and destroying thousands of buildings.

Most of the above suffering inflicted on the Syrian people is man-made and is committed by the self-proclaimed 'international society', a wide term the western countries made exclusive to themselves, the countries that committee the worse war crimes in the history of mankind while at the same time preaching the world about human rights and freedoms!

Every citizen of the countries imposing these illegal coercive measures dubbed as sanctions against the Syrian people is an accomplice in the suffering inflicted on the people who did no harm to any other country around the world, on the contrary, in addition to giving the world the first alphabet, the first domesticized settlements, the first civilizations, and spread the three mainstream divine religions to the rest of the world, in addition to those and more, the Syrian people have welcomed the oppressed who sought refuge from every other country.

All you're asked to do is spend a few minutes of your time to join the sit-in if it's in your city as detailed in the following post, or at least share the information with your friends and relatives: The Global Campaign to End the Siege on Syria – You’re Invited

World Health Org. Director Visiting Earthquake-Struck Syria!

The director of the World Health Organization paid a visit to Syria bringing with him some much-needed medical-related humanitarian aid, after the massive controversy about the pandemic and suspicions about the WHO's agenda, some are worried about this visit.

Tedros A. Ghebreyesus landed at Aleppo International Airport on the 11th of the month, 5 days after the devastating double earthquakes that struck northern Syria and southern Turkey which inflicted tens of thousands of casualties in both affected countries and left enormous destruction in buildings and infrastructure in addition to overwhelming the healthcare facilities, especially in Syria.

12 years of the US-led war of terror against the Syrian people, their state, and their heritage, accompanied by a complete blockade under dubbed sanctions by both the USA and its European Union minions have strongly hit the Syrian healthcare system which was thriving before this war.

The US and EU blockade, though claiming to exempt humanitarian aid and food items, prevented any business transactions between Syrian entities and the rest of the world including with Syria's closest allies like Russia, Iran, China, and others whose banks and financial institutions were interconnected directly and indirectly with the banking system dominated by the US and EU.

The healthcare aid brought into Syria by the director of the World Health Organization is essential in the relief efforts for both the earthquake and the years of war, it's not enough and it's just another proof that US and EU 'sanctions' did block Syria from acquiring these supposed to be exempted items.

However, there are many skeptics worried about the visit of the WHO official due to the controversial practices of the international organization in suspending critiques of its handling of the pandemic, its promoting of certain vaccination programs while blocking other proven cures, not to mention the lockdowns and restriction of movement which added further strangulations of vulnerable economies.

Syria Slams the USA for Blocking the Delivery of Earthquake Aid

As the Syrian people suffer from the major earthquake that struck northern Syria and southern Turkey, thousands of people are still under the rubble in freezing cold weather conditions, the US and European official continue their inhumane criminal blockade over the country and at the same time lie that humanitarian aid is exempted in their illegal sanction, the Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs exposed those war criminal liars.

A statement issued by the Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs called out the lies of the US officials and their European minions in regard to the earthquake and humanitarian relief aid to Syria, the statement explained how digging machinery to locate people under the rubble is not allowed to be sent to Syria despite western claims otherwise.

Yes, there are clauses exempting humanitarian aid in the US and European Union's illegal sanctions against Syria, and its main Caesar Act regime of sanctions, the measures implemented by the other clauses in these regimes of sanctions make it impossible for 3rd countries who still have ties with the west to transact with Syria, including sending humanitarian aid.

The sanctions block any transactions between banks in any country and Syrian banks, the same with other financial businesses, airplanes are not allowed to fuel if their destination is Syria, and sanctions are instantly imposed on airlines that do trips to Syria.

Commerical airplanes avoiding Syrian airspace to avoid western sanctions

Medicine is exempted from the US and EU blockade and sanctions on Syria but the means to deliver it are not, food is exempted from the US and EU blockade and sanctions on Syria, but there's no way to deliver those to Syria without transacting with western-controlled banks, insurance companies that insure airplanes and ships, exporters are not allowed to export to Syria out of the fear of ending up in prison in the Western 'free world' and Josep Borrell's 'garden' which they built by invading other countries and plundering their wealth.

"US officials can lie, but it is the pictures from the affected areas in Aleppo, Latakia, and Hama that reveal the truth, and the Syrians are facing their catastrophe with strength, steadfastness, and success despite all these sanctions."

UN Envoy: Sanctions Pushed 90% of the Syrian People Under Poverty Line

The US-led European Union contributed sanctions against the Syrian people sending 90% of them under the poverty line, the once self-sufficient nation which successfully fought and defeated the world's largest armies of terrorists sponsored by some of the world's superpowers and super-rich countries are struggling under the poverty line.

After 11 years of combating Al Qaeda, ISIS, and their derivatives sponsored by the USA and its NATO / European Union lackeys, the Syrian people are now fighting hunger and harsh living conditions all are man-made, man but not humane.

Terrorism destroyed Syria's infrastructure, what the terrorists failed to destroy was destroyed and looted by NATO's first, and second armies, the US army, and the Turkish army.

Not only that the USA regimes of Obama (and Biden), Trump, and Biden have sponsored all sorts of terrorist against Syria, and occupy the country's food basket and main oil fields, the USA and its European Union stooges impose unilateral coercive measures against the Syrian people, wrongly dubbed as sanctions, a complete blockade by preventing international corporations and institutions to deal with Syrian businesses including banks.

The UN Special Rapporteur on unilateral coercive measures and human rights Alena Douhan visited Syria and spent 12 days with the Syrian people and raised the alarm very high.

“I am struck by the pervasiveness of the human rights and humanitarian impact of the unilateral coercive measures imposed on Syria and the total economic and financial isolation of a country whose people are struggling to rebuild a life with dignity, following the decade-long war.”

Thank You China: 30 Buses Presented by China Put in Service in Damascus

China delivered 100 buses at the end of last month June in addition to the previous 100 buses delivered to Syria a couple of years earlier in the Chinese humanitarian aid to the Syrian people, 30 of the latest batch of buses have been commissioned by the Public Transportation Authority to serve the people of Damascus.

The 30 buses will operate on 3 vital arteries within the Syrian capital Damascus serving tens of thousands of people with their different needs for daily transport.

Syrians are accustomed to public transport, and buses are very beneficial, especially with the continuous rise in fuel prices and the severe shortages of fuel due to the inhumane western, US, and European, sanctions and blockade imposed on the Syrian people for several years already, and topped by the theft of Syrian oil by the US army and its proxy terrorists in northern Syria.

All logistics needed to operate the buses were concluded including the registration, mandatory insurance coverage, training of drivers, and allocating of enough fuel for the buses.

Contrary to the Western 'support' of the Syrian people which comprises arming Al Qaeda, its offshoot ISIS (ISIL), and other terrorist groups, bombing Syrian infrastructure, plundering Syrian oil, stealing Syrian wheat, and imposing a blockade on the Syrian people, China has maintained its real and proper support to Syria as a sovereign nation with deeply-rooted friendly ties with all the world, including Chinese humanitarian and political support.

Finally, Syria and Iran Agree to Open a Joint Bank to Bypass Western Blockade

The two long-time allies, Syria and Iran, finally agreed to open a joint bank and a number of branches in both countries to facilitate their bilateral trade and money exchange, the agreement was reached during a visiting Iranian delegation.

The Iranian economic delegation visiting Damascus was chaired by Iran's minister for roads and urban developments, the two countries also agreed to open a number of free trade zones and to increase the production of Iranian products in Syrian factories, Iran would benefit from Syria's access to the Mediterranean reducing its trade route significantly.

Despite having 4-decades strong relations, and despite both countries being under a blockade imposed on them by a US-led consortium of US stooges, Iran remains among Syria's least trade partners in volumes lagging way below some of Syria's outspoken enemies! The same goes for Russia whose trade with Syria including the weapons sale remains the 3rd behind China and Lebanon amounting to 6% of Syria's foreign trade.

Syria and Iran have previously forged a number of economic agreements which were stalled mainly by the Iranian former 'reformist' government's lack of initiative who were promised free trade with the west once they sign the nuclear deal dubbed the JCPOA, they shouldn't have trusted the west and should have strengthened their relations with their own long-standing allies instead, now they're realizing this and hopefully they'll fix this short-sighted policy.

Jordan Helped to Strangle Syria got Strangled Instead

It's the Syrian Curse, that's how we Syrian activists call it, every country and party that helped to destroy Syria by supporting the US-led war of terror and war of aggression got their fingers burnt, some of them got their whole hands burned, and others are no more.

Video Report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83sSmOCdBtA

The Syrian Curse is not new, a century ago and in particular, in the year 1920, France invaded Syria, several years later, France itself got invaded by Germany, the French were later evicted from Syria.

One of the smallest but very harmful tools used against Syria was Jordan and its British half-Jewish king, his mother is half Jewish from her mother's side, the guy went full length in the US plot to destroy Syria thinking, like all the others, that it's a matter of a few days, maybe a couple of months at max and they'll see many Al Qaeda-ruled emirates in Syria replacing the Syrian state, during the past 10.5 years they refused to realize there's no way to take over Syria, yet they continued, and viciously so.

Not only Syria survived the US plot, the US-led war of terror, and the US-led war of attrition, though, at a hefty price in blood and suffering, it came out stronger, brought together an even stronger alliance, helped bring back Russia from a 3rd country to a world's superpower, and helped absorb NATO's full blow on behalf of Iran and China.

The plot started collapsing, the evil empire is dwindling, all of the countries that followed it faced hard economic blows, one of those that suffered the most was Jordan, Syria' southern neighbor with long rough terrain desert borders.

The Jordanian king blocked Syria's access by land in the south to external markets, the Turkish madman Erdogan did the same in the north, Iraq was never stable for Syria to have proper access through it to the world on its eastern borders, the only access was through the sea.

As a result of closing trade with Syria, the Jordanian economy collapsed, its patrons in the USA, Qatar, Britain, the EU, and the Saudis never delivered on their promises to help his country's growing financial issues, his kingdom is thirsty with lack of fresh water as the Israelis dump their wastewater in the Jordan Valley as his reward from recognizing the anti-Jewish state, he can only look north to Syria for salvation.

The USA also needs to stop its arrogance and ease its criminal blockade against the Syrian people, this blockade hurt also its assets in Lebanon as it was hoping it will hurt Hezb Allah only, the latter not only survived the blow as well, its popularity grew among the regions of its foes in Lebanon after it managed to break the US siege and bring in Iranian fuel earlier this month.

The above video report by Al Mayadeen was done at both sides of the Syrian - Jordanian borders, it was reopened to save Jordan and the image of the USA, the details can be found in this report: Jordan Reopens Border Crossing with Syria at the US Instructions.

US Forces Steal Syrian Wheat and Russia Sends 160 Tons of Humanitarian Aid

While the most inclusive and diverse regime of the demented Biden continues to steal Syrian oil and wheat, the main food staple in the country, from the mouths of the Syrian people, Russia sent a cargo of humanitarian aid to the Syrian capital Damascus.

The Russian cargo of 160 tons arrived yesterday at Damascus International Airport and comprised of essentials, medicine, and some other items. A Russian top delegation accompanied the aid vowed to stand by the Syrian people until the country is free from terrorism and the sponsors of terrorists, and to continue extending the economic help needed.

This comes at times the oil and food thieves of the White House junta increase their theft of Syrian oil and wheat from the main fields in northeastern Syria into neighboring Iraq where many testimonies confirmed seeing US helicopters drop supplies to ISIS terrorists in the Iraqi desert. Stolen Syrian oil sees its way through Turkey to Israel and the revenues are used to finance the terrorist operations of ISIS, the Kurdish separatist SDF terrorists play an essential part in this.

Humanitarian Hypocrites of the EU Renewed Their Sanctions against Syria

To reward the Syrian people for accomplishing their milestones in defeating ISIS and other Al Qaeda terrorists in most of their country and the successful presidential election, the European Union renewed their inhumane and draconian sanctions on Syria for one more year.

It's not enough for them they prioritized financing terrorist groups in Syria over their own citizens' welfare and healthcare systems, and it's not enough the killings and political pressure over the past 10 years, and it's not enough the suffering the Syrian people went through for the Europeans to work as a vessel for the United States, the EU institutions proved yet again they're main partners in the bloodshed of the Syrian people and the destruction of their institutions.

The Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs slammed the EU's decision the day before yesterday to renew their blockade against Syria for an additional year, called them partners in US crimes, disconnected from reality, hypocrites, and much more.

The same European Union citing in the same documents to justify their sanctions they're doing so to help the Syrian people achieve 'democracy' and 'free speech' with the help of the terrorist groups they fund, those same Europeans are the second main factor in the suffering of the Syrian people and the widespread death and destruction.

Finally Much Needed Ambulances Delivered to Syria

After enormous efforts a small batch of 40 ambulances have reached Syria, these are provided by the World Health Organization to compensate some of the losses of Syria's healthcare sector destroyed by terrorists sponsored by the majority of members of the World Health Organization over the past decade...

The arrival of the new equipped ambulances was made by the Syrian Minister of Health and the World Health Organization's representative in Syria in Damascus yesterday while inspecting the vehicles.

Before the USA and its European and regional stooges decided to destroy Syria for not recognizing Israel's right to steal the Levant's land and resources, Syria had a thriving health sector with ambulances and stationery clinics in every corner of the country and in remote places, there were mobile clinics paying periodic visits to serve the Syrian citizens.

Unfortunately, what was a beneficial system that was provided by the state to the people was used by NATO-sponsored 'peaceful protesters' as weapons and means to use to kill and maim tens of thousands of innocent people, the terrorists, sorry 'peaceful protesters' and 'moderate freedom fighters' used the ambulances to smuggle weapons and terrorists knowing it will provide them cover, and they even used ambulances to as car bombs to target Syrian forces and heinously enough to blow up entire functioning hospitals like when a US taxpayers'-funded anti-Islamic Wahhabi terrorist drove a booby-trapped ambulance into the Emergency ward of the National Hospital of Jableh and blew up the vehicle turning the entire building into rubble killing instantly all of the patients and the staff on duty, more than 70 people lost their lives in this US-funded 'democracy-exporting' operation back in May 2015.

President Assad Dismisses the Governor of the Central Bank to Boost the Economy

Syrian President Bashar Assad issued a decree removing the Governor of the Central Bank of Syria for a couple of reasons, one of which his failure in managing the exchange price of the Syrian Lira.

The Syrian economy is unlike many economies in the region and beyond, it does not rely on stock markets, it doesn't have futures and virtual deals, it is not much linked to foreign exchange, and most of all it's not pegged to the US dollar, it might be the least currency dealing with the overrated dollar, yet, there was a remarkable increase of the price of the US dollar against the Syrian Lira in a very short period of time despite the country's latest victories against the US-sponsored terrorist groups.

Syria sustained much of the unprecedented war waged against it by the world's superpowers and super-rich countries for over a decade, those countries were so vicious in the multi-layered war that some of them went bankrupt financing the war against Syria, some of them sold their dearest assets while others failed to meet the basic demands of their own people but always found extras in tens of billions of dollars and Euros to send to Al Qaeda terrorists murdering the Syrian people, to free them they say.

The drop in the exchange price of the Syrian Lira against the dollar to reach 4800 Syrian Liras for 1 US dollar was very much unrealistic, the economy was enhancing and one of the main tasks of the Central Bank's governor is to maintain confidence in the country's currency.

Two weeks prior to his dismissal, the Syrian government formed a committee to oversee the handling of the currency and within a few days, the price of the US dollar dropped to 3150 Syrian Liras. Don't let the figures fool you, a whole family of 4 in Syria can live on 100 dollars a month and they will even have outings a couple of times, most of the essentials are subsidized; it's not that much cheap, it's that much you're being robbed in your country.

There's however another reason of mismanagement that led to the removal of the governor of the Central Bank explained in this report: President Assad Dismisses Governor of Central Bank of Syria.

120 New Cases of COVID 19 Discovered in Syria in the Past 24 Hours

COVID 19: Whether you believe this is a pandemic or ‘scamdemic’ support the Syrian people facing its measures, terrorism, and the sanctions.

The Syrian Healthcare system is already exhausted from NATO-sponsored terrorism dumped into the country for almost a decade now with terrorists bombing hospitals and clinics and in many cases using ambulance cars stuffed with explosives, assassinating doctors and scientists, and even destroying universities and university hospitals, add to all of that crippling US and EU sanctions then this COVID 19 pandemic measures.

The Syrian Ministry of Health was reporting a daily average of 50 - 60 new cases but has seen a hike in the past days and now the daily average is exceeding 85 new cases and has reached over 100 daily; it remains a little number compared with many countries but huge taking into consideration all the reasons mentioned above.

Total cases discovered so far since the first case discovered in March 2020 is 16,776 cases, total deaths reached 1120, and total recoveries 11231, which leaves 4,425 active cases as of 17 March 2021.

The US regime of sanctions imposed on Syria dubbed the Caesar Act added to the European blockade renewed last June for a further year were meant to prevent any foreign country from dealing with the Syrian government entities including the Syrian banking system and Syrian-based organizations thus impeding any Syrian government efforts in providing the basics for the Syrian people, that in the sense of the hypocrite Orwellian-driven evil minds of the US and EU officials considered as helping the Syrian people achieve democracy and free speech when neither of those is in reality enjoyed in those countries as we've seen in the Yellow Vests protests in France, the London protests they called riots, the US racism and poverty, and the control of the banksters all over the western world.
