I can understand this position by Amb. Ford supporting US withdrawal from Syria as an outcry after years of disappointment with US Syria policy, which I share with him. 

Can the US no-policy serve as a policy? NO, it is counterproductive and will eventually backfire on US interests and Syria's situation--many scholars and I have been crying out.

Syria Plague and the Nascent Justice Margin between Domestic Affairs and Human Rights Internationalization

Image
In a historic unprecedented case (for a sitting head of state), the Paris Court of Appeal, earlier this month, upheld the Syrian president arrest warrant over the use of chemical weapons in Syria.  However, the French Public Prosecutor has appealed this decision to the Cassation Court. This move is widely deemed to be morally and legally wrong and disrespectful of victims' rights and the law and justice principles. It is also considered as a political move to protect the perpetrators at the expense of the human rights and the world's committed effort to stop the use of the weapons of mass destruction and the struggle against the crimes against humanity. This case and its issued arrest warrant of a sitting head of state is a sign that the Syrian plague has contributed to raising awareness of the suffering of peoples at the domestic level and to forming an international consciousness about this sensitive issue formerly deemed a domestic affair. There is a new margin ...

The Ultimate Initiatives to Settle the Syria Crisis

Image
In light of 13 years of failed and sometimes vicious (really vicious) international policies in Syria, I would love to join the international trend and launch my own initiative to settle the Syria crisis.  It is worthy of mention that my initiative is the only reliable, feasible and attainable initiative in the international market as far as my knowledge of the related international discussions and realities. Moreover, this initiative is the only one that is really rewarding to the world for the international inputs through this 13 years of our Syrian plague. As a distinguished and reliable initiative, it has an international component, which is called SYRTAGON and a domestic component called SYRIAGONE . Earlier in July, a group of eight EU member states wants the EU to "review and assess" its approach to Syria. Well, it is a wonderful initiative only if it could succeed in 'engaging' Syrian de facto authorities and ease the Syrian sanctions, so we could,...

Russian-North Korean Mutual Defense Pact and the West's Irrational Misconception

Image
After a wide round over analyses and commentaries by Western experts and scholars as regards the mutual defense pact between Russia and North Korea, I started to get an insight into the underpinning mentality, which lays the foundations of the Western irrationality (and most probably hysteria given the Western support of a Neo-Nazi regime) over Russia and its operation in Ukraine. (I will write about the hysterical West and its abundance of politics for quite hysteria over Russia and its interests and national security in a future post). Most of analysts refer to desperate Putin in his resort to the internationally-isolated regime of North Korea. No one even mentioned or cared about geopolitics, especially in Asian region, which is the playground of the forthcoming world watershed geopolitical war. The war in Europe and the wars in the Middle East are the introductory and preparatory measures for this grand war or at least conflict.  Putin, who got a little bit surprised by the str...
