From the very beginning, of the Syrian conflict, Moscow has taken an unequivocal position: it is Syria's sovereign and internal affair and no external intervention is tolerable or legal under international law.

Russia has not only discouraged the possibility of intervention but univocally has spoken against it at the UN Security Council .

China has held to the same position.

Two geopolitical camps have formed around the Syrian conflict: In the one camp are those against any intervention and the supporters of a multipolar world : Russia, China, and Iran

And in the other camp—  sectarian and extremist forces and opponents of the secular Syrian state, supported by the United States, Israel, and their allies in the Islamic world - Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.

Putin firmly warned Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan that he will not tolerate the intervention of Turkish troops in Syria. This would entail NATO intervention under Article 5 as Turkey is a NATO member.

The Arab Spring began in Tunisia and then spread to Egypt.

Prior to this, they were ruled by dictators quite subservient to the West, but this was still not enough for the Hegemony,

They still clung to tattered fragments of national sovereignty and stability.

The West has chosen to open Pandora's box.

It has made a bid for its old ally - Wahhabi fundamentalism.

These forces have always helped the U.S. to achieve their core interests in the Islamic world – undermining and routing all the tendencies that might be hostile to the U.S.

This was the case in Afghanistan in the 1980’s, when the American geopolitician and ideologue Zbigniew Brzezinski personally tutored Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

Pro-American regimes in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, the nest of Wahhabist terrorism are now playing the role of regional sub-imperialist proxies. The Wahhabis did the dirty work for the US in Tunisia and Egypt. And the most loathsome service was done in Libya with Qaddafi horrifically murdered.

Wahhabi mercenaries under the protection of the direct intervention of NATO have overthrown the Libyan government and the heroic anti-imperialist colonel was taken from us all.

But it is true, immanent justice exists.

One moment we are seeing Qaddafi tortured and killed.

Today we are going to discuss the dramatic situation in Syria and the desperate struggle of the government of Bashar al-Assad and the Syrian people. We are going to discuss the symbolic meaning of this decisive battle and its geopolitical implications.

The conflict between pro-Western forces against the legitimate leadership of Syria is a direct continuation of the so-called Arab Spring, a series of bloody coups, uprisings, and civil wars that the West unleashed during the spring of 2010.

Part of its strategy in this is the creation of a condition of “controlled chaos”.

As a result of the Arab Spring all the political regimes that have up until now somehow resisted U.S. imperialism in the region have been overthrown and their independent leaders have been expelled or killed. Bloody chaos, terror, and fanaticism have swept the Middle East under the constructed guise of ‘democratic revolution’.

Here, geopolitics, religion, and ... eschatology are closely linked. The attack on Syria is a strategic move in preparation for the invasion of Iran. But, at the same time it is the onset of the last act of an eschatological drama.
