Saudi Arabia Warns of ‘Plan B’ for Syria

Local Editor

While the world powers that gathered in Vienna on Tuesday to discuss the Syrian peace process stressed that all parties to the conflict should make peace a priority, Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister warned that time may be coming for “Plan B” in Syria.

“It was made clear that Bashar al-Assad has two choices – either he will be removed through political process or he will be removed by force,” Adel al-Jubeir told reporters after the International Syria Support Group [ISSG] meeting co-chaired by Russia and the US.

“We believe we should have moved to a ‘Plan B’ a long time ago,” he said.

The Saudis are among the most aggressive supporters of removing al-Assad from power and are the staunchest backers of militant groups trying to overthrow the Syrian government.

“If they do not respond to the treaties of the international community… then we will have to see what else can be done,” al-Jubeir added.

The latest round of UN-brokered indirect talks, which began in Geneva, Switzerland, on April 13, were brought to a halt after the Saudi-backed main opposition group, the High Negotiation Committee [HNC], walked out of the discussions and declared a “new war” against the Syrian government.

The 17-nation ISSG talks were aimed at discussing the stalled negotiations, challenges in maintaining a shaky February ceasefire, and the delivery of UN humanitarian aid to various areas across the war-ravaged country.

Following the Tuesday talks, the ISSG released a statement calling on the international community to prevent any material or financial support from reaching Daesh and Nusra Front and dissuade any party to the truce from cooperating with the terrorists.

UN special envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura estimates that over 400,000 people had been killed in the conflict, which has also displaced over half of the Arab country’s pre-war population of about 23 million.

WIPE OUT! SYRIAN ARMY KILLS CALIPH’S FAVORITE FIELD COMMANDER; DAMASCUS: HAWSH AL-KHATEEB RAT FREE

Ziad Fadel

Tarek Khalaf Abdullah and Omer the Chechen

Here he is, Taariq Khalaf Al-‘Abdullah, with the look of an idiot on his face posing next to ‘Umar Al-Sheeshaani.

DAYR EL-ZOR: Yesterday and today were very bad days for ISIS. In the aftermath of the drubbing the rodents took at the Assad National Hospital in Al-Bughayliyya, the Syrian Army Republican Guard was on fire as it exploited blatant weaknesses in the ISIS ranks killing scores of these fake-Muslim devil worshipers.

Al-Tharda Mountain: So desperate for money is ISIS that it threw its very best commanders into the fight to wrest control of this mountain from the SAA. The elevation looks down on several oil fields critical for the ISIS budgetary considerations(Al-Thayyim and Al-Neeshaan fields). ISIS has cut its rodent salaries in half due to shutdowns of oil and gas operations due to constant Syrian and Russian attacks. Yesterday, in the evening, as the rats were settling down to eat a fellow carcass to the south of the mountain, the Syrian Army, never one to sleep or rest, opened fire on positively identified vermin camped out in the area. Imagine their delight when SAA cannoneers found out they had just eradicated some really important rats:

Taariq Khalaf Al-‘Abdullah (Abu Bakr Al-Baghdaadi’s favorite field commander. An Iraqi by birth, he was known as “Abu Haatim Al-Bu-‘Umar)

Waleed Hassan Al-‘Alwaan

Khudhr Muhammad Al-Faarooqi

Jamaal ‘Uthmaan

‘Ubayd Al-Darwees

Khattaab Mahmoud Al-Ahmad Al-Birjis

The rest of the 14 killed were not identified.

Mayaadeen Road: A convoy came out again in full view of SAA spotters and SAAF aircraft from Mayaadeen City. It was annihilated from the air. The scene was reportedly one of pure mayhem as ISIS rodents didn’t bother to even take with them the wounded in a scene straight out of Hieronymous Bosch. Aerial assessment confirms no less than 20 rodents killed.

Panorama Quarter in the city: A battle took place in the farms to the southeast. No other details.

DAMASCUS:

The Syrian Army has now completed the flushing out of rodents from Hawsh Al-Khateeb. It is totally rat-free. Dozens of fellow rats, wounded or dead, were left behind to face the wrath of our vindictive militias. SAA engineers are now combing the area to dismantle IEDs and land mines.

Khaan Al-Shaykh: Syrian Army commandos initiated a high-quality operation at dawn yesterday and took down over 10 rats belonging to the Liwaa` Al-Faatiheen, a sub-franchise of Alqaeda/Nusra.

A major battle is shaping up at the axis of Al-Khammaara – Salloom Villas – Drug Factory west of Khaan Al-Shaykh. The Jaysh Al-Islam vermin are putting all they have into this, which is why Saudi Arabia is starting to talk about Plan-B, all the while losing every battle in Yemen. The battle for south Damascus will be decided here.
