Sarah Palin: ‘Let Allah sort it out!’

In a Facebook post titled “Let Allah Sort It Out,” former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin condemned President Obama’s decision to get further involved with the ongoing civil war in Syria.

“So we’re bombing Syria because Syria is bombing Syria? And I’m the idiot?” Mrs. Palin asked on Friday. “President Obama wants America involved in Syria’s civil war pitting the antagonistic Assad regime against equally antagonistic Al Qaeda affiliated rebels. But he’s not quite sure which side is doing what, what the ultimate end game is, or even whose side we should be on.”




Mrs. Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, argued that though Americans sympathize with the plight of innocent civilians in the war-torn country, the United States has “no clear mission in Syria,” and the president’s advertised war plan “has given Assad enough of a heads-up that he’s reportedly already placing human shields at targeted sites.”

“Our Nobel Peace Prize winning President needs to seek Congressional approval before taking us to war,” she added. On Saturday, Mr. Obama sent a letter to congressional leaders and draft legislation on the Authorization for the Use of U.S. Armed Forces (AUMF) in connection to the Syrian conflict. The draft resolution authorizes the president to use the U.S. military “as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in connection with the use of chemical weapons or other weapons of mass destruction in the conflict in Syria[.]”

House Republican leaders said they’ll wait until the end of their summer vacation, which ends a week from today, before returning to Washington to vote on authorizing a strike on President Bashar Assad’s regime.

The GOP leadership said the coming days will give Mr. Obama some time to make a more convincing case than he has laid out so far.
“As I said before,” Mrs. Palin concluded Friday, “if we are dangerously uncertain of the outcome and are led into war by a Commander-in-chief who can’t recognize that this conflict is pitting Islamic extremists against an authoritarian regime with both sides shouting ‘Allah Akbar’ at each other, then let Allah sort it out.”

AFTER Syrias rebels were chased out of the town of Qusayr, near the border with north-east Lebanon, at the beginning of June, the momentum seemed to be turning in favour of President Bashar Assads forces. He was well on his way, said many observers, to consolidating a pro-regime axis running from Damascus, the capital, through the pivotal city of Homs, the third-largest in the country, down west to the ports of Tartus and Latakia, in the heartland of the presidents own minority Alawite community.

Homs, it was confidently predicted by regime loyalists, would be cleared of rebels next, and Aleppo, the countrys long-contested second city, could soon be back wholly in government hands, too. Moreover, the rebels, especially those in the suburbs of Damascus, were finding it harder to keep their supply lines open, from Lebanon in the west and Jordan in the south. The regime might expect to secure all the key roads between all main cities of the western part of Syria, where most of the countrys people reside.


It has not quite happened like that. If anything, the momentum has edged back the other way. A chunk of Homs has remained under rebel control, albeit perilously. The road between Aleppo and Hama, en route to Damascus, has continued to be attacked and occasionally cut. Several places on the way, such as Marat Numan, in the north-west, are still dominated by rebels, who continue to strangle the provincial capital of Idleb and smaller towns such as Nubl and Zahra, near Aleppo. The towns of Zabadani and Madaya, just north of the main road between Damascus and Beirut, which the government is determined to maintain as an international land line, remain in rebel hands.


The regimes predicted push against the rebel-held northern and western side of Aleppo has not materialised, while the rebels earlier this month captured one of Aleppos main airbases, at Minigh. They have also consolidated their hold over Raqqa, the only provincial capital wholly in their hands; have tightened their grip around Deir ez-Zor, in the east; and now control most of the main border crossing points into Iraq, though the government in Baghdad supports Mr Assad. Most dramatically, earlier this month, the rebels made their biggest assault in two years on the area just north of Latakia, albeit that they subsequently had to pull back.


The recent chemical attacks on the southern and eastern suburbs of Damascus, especially on East Ghouta, which coincided with unusually heavy bombardments of the same areas, may well have been provoked by a resurgence of rebel activity in those areas, well known for their disaffection. The rebels have held on there and have made their presence known further into the capital, for example in an apparent attack on President Assads convoy, says Charles Lister of IHS Janes, a London-based intelligence and defence consultancy, referring to a rebel-reported artillery rocket assault on August 8th in the Malki district of Damascus.


From the Western point of view, the worst feature of the rebels is the persistent growth of Islamist influence in their ranks, albeit that the two most extreme groups, Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamic State in Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), both of them linked to al-Qaeda, may number fewer than 12,000 or so fighters between them, perhaps less than a tenth of the total insurgency. But the biggest and most powerful rebel group, Ahrar al-Sham, which may have between 15,000 and 25,000 men, is also strongly Islamisttoo much so, in Mr Listers view, for Western governments to feel able to give them arms. The reality, he says, is that most of the more moderate rebel groups have become Islamist to an extent.


Differences between some of the Islamist groups, let alone those between Islamists and secularists, have complicated matters moremaking it still harder for Western governments to contemplate giving them arms. ISIS, led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who campaigns for a regional caliphate, seems to have made ground at the expense of Jabhat al-Nusra, led by Abu Muhammad al-Golani, who wants to focus on conquering Syria before widening the war for jihad.


There is growing talk, among the rebels and among Arab governments behind them, of a possible sahwa, or awakening, similar to what happened in Iraq after 2007, when Sunni tribes to the west of Baghdad, outraged by the brutal excesses of groups linked to al-Qaeda, formed their own militias and turned against them in co-operation with American forces there. Of the Syrian rebels two key Arab backers, the Qataris are cosier with the more extreme Islamists, whereas the Saudis want to help the more secular Free Syrian Army, which is more fragmented. Such talk raises the spectre of a civil war between the rebels, should Mr Assad fall, and the prospect of a regime sympathetic to al-Qaeda taking overhardly the hoped-for outcome of Western intervention.


All the same, the rebels seem to have recovered their breath after their defeat at Qusayrwhich was due mainly, they note, to the regime reinforcing itself with Hizbullah, the Lebanese Shias party-cum-milita, which was called inthey saybecause Mr Assads forces were too weak to prevail on their own. Should the West bomb Mr Assads command-and-control centres, say the rebels, the momentum could swing back their way.

مہوش ! آپ کا منافقانہ معیار یہ ہے کہ اگر امریکا مصر فوج کی مدد سے ایک منتخب صدر کے خلاف کاروائی کی حمایت کرے تو ٹھیک اور اگر وہ شام کے خبیث ابن خبیث کے خلاف حملہ کرے تو غلط ؟
پاکستان میں اردو بولنے والے ، ایوب خان کی آمریت کے خلاف هوں تو ٹھیک لیکن اگر وہ دوسرے ظالم مشرف کے خلاف بولیں تو غلط ....


آپ حکومت میں هوں تو فوج بلانے کا مطالبہ کرنا ، جمہوریت کے خلاف سازش اور آپ حکومت سے آدھے باہر اور آدھے اندر هوں ، تو کراچی میں فوجی آپریشن کا مطالبہ . ؟؟
گویا یزید بھی اپنی جگہ خوش اور حسین بھی ناراض نہ ہو .... آدھا تیتر اور آدھا بٹیر ، پھر ایک مرتبہ پوچھنا چاہتا هوں کہ اگر عراق میں اقلیت کا صدر (صدام ) جائز نہیں تھا ، تو شام میں ایک ایسا صدر جو اقلیت میں بھی نہیں ، بلکہ کوئی تیسری جنس ٹائپ چیز ہے ( شیعہ ہوتا تب آپ کی حمایت مجھے سجھ آ جاتی ) اس کا سنی اکثریت پر حکومت کس طرح جائز ہو سکتی ہے ؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟

آپ نے پیغام کو صحیح طور پر سمجھا نہیں ہے۔

بلاشبہ صدر مرسی پر تنقید ہے کہ وہ اگر اسرائیل کو کئی دھائیوں کے فلسطین پر ہونے والے ظلم کے باوجود حالات کے تحت برداشت کر سکتے تھے تو پھر شام میں انہوں نے امریکی کھیل اور اسلحہ کو آگے کیوں بڑھایا۔ یہ امریکی چال تھی جسکا وہ شکار ہوئے، اور پھر وقت پڑنے امریکہ اور سعودیہ نے انکا اپنا شکار کیا۔

اس میں ایران کو کوئی کردار نہیں ہے۔ بلکہ الٹا ایران کی تو شدید خواہش تھی کہ "اخوان" سے برادرانہ مراسم قائم ہوں۔ اور یقینا اخوان سے انتہائی برادارانہ مراسم کئی دھائیوں سے قائم تھے، مگر فقط ایک شام کی سازش امریکہ ایسی چل گیا کہ جس کے بعد اخوان اور ایران ایک دوسرے سے بہت دور جا کھڑے ہوئے۔

امریکہ ایک ایک کر کے سب کو شکار کرے گا ۔۔۔۔ بلکہ خود تنکا بھی نہیں ہلائے گا، پہلے ہمارے اتحاد کو توڑے گا، آپس میں رنجشیں پیدا کروائے گا اور پھر مزے سے بیٹھ کو دونوں کو لڑتا دیکھے گا۔

شام میں امریکہ ہرگز اسد حکومت کو بھی نہیں گرنے دے گا۔ اگر حملہ کرتا ہے تو وہ بھی ایسا ہی حملہ ہو گا جیسا کہ امریکہ نے میزائلوں کے ساتھ طالبان پر پہلی مرتبہ کیا تھا۔

امریکی پلان تو یہ ہے کہ اسد اور جہادی آپس میں لڑتے رہیں اور آخری میں دونوں ایک ہی وقت میں جا کر مریں، تاکہ باقی بچنے والے کو مارنے کے لیے اسرائیل کو زحمت نہ کرنی پڑے۔
