U.S. and Israel plans lead to Syria partition, Turkey resists, ISIS obstacle

(By Abdullah al-Ghadawi; Translation by Yusra Ahmed)

A prominent figure in the Syrian National Coalition found that a hidden decisions to divide Syria has been taken by external countries, as it seems to be one of the best option to resolve the Syrian crisis amid the current situation and lack of will to overthrow the Syrian regime.

Sources explained to Zaman al-Wasl that dividing Syria has become the most convincing option to the international community. “Although it is not suitable to the Syrian revolution, regrettably, Syrians are no longer decisive in planning Syria’s future”.

Robert Ford, the former American Ambassador to Damascus, was the first to put dividing Syria into 6 small statelets as an option: Sunni in the East, North-West and South of Syria, besides Alawite, and Kurds and others.

Ford found that dividing could be as fixating the current situation in Syria with small margins for the conflicting forces to expand their control on land, which reflects the unwillingness of America to change the power balance in Syria.

It seems that Ford’s vision to dividing Syria goes in line with the Israeli goals, as well informed sources from the Gulf mentioned to Zaman al-Wasl that they attended a political seminar in Washington about the Syrian crisis, where a prominent Israeli figure from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs revealed that Israel would not be safe until Syria was divided to form Kurdish and Alawite statelets, with other scattered Sunni statelets.

Israelis find that Syria has been successfully divided, as Amos Gilad, the Strategic Advisor for the Minster of Defence revealed that Bashar al-Assad is not controlling more that fifth the Syrian land, and he might finish controlling remains of a country of Alawite majority.

Gilad added in a conference for “Israel Defence: “Syria has reach to its end, and history would remember that Bashar was the one who wasted Syria.”

On the other hand, according to the National Coalition sources, the Islamic State (ISIS) seems to be a big obstacle facing dividing Syria, because of its Jihadi principles and unstoppable goals which unstable the forces balance and prevent any plan to be implemented, Moreover, controlling Palmyra by ISIS which put it near to Homs’s Eastern Countryside, make and dividing the country very difficult.
