(Zaman Al Wasl)- Activists have circulated photo of Aleppo's ceasefire mediator who have been accused of betraying the Syrian rebels in putting the war-torn city on a plate of gold for the regime, Russia and Iran.
A copy of the agreement, obtained by Zaman al-Wasl, shows 4 signatures only; one for the regime representative, head of security and military committee in Aleppo (Zaid Saleh), the second is for the Russian representative Vladimir Savchenko, and the fourth is for the representative of Syrian resistance al-Faruq, and the third is the most important for the negotiation party by the Syrian Government Sheikh Omar al-Rahmoun, as the document literally contained.
Perhaps what more shows the dangerous nature of al-Rahmoun’s name is the mission which the regime assigned to him in helping him surrender the most prominent Syrian revolution strongholds while al-Rahmoun was himself few months ago sided with the revolution and tracked down by the regime as we will show later.
-You shamed us-
In August 2016, al-Rahmoun’s shift from the revolution to the regime shocked many including his relatives and towns people Hilfaya even his rebel leader brother Sami al-Rahmoun considered what his brother Omar did apostasy.
It was reported that Sami who was leading one of the fiercest factions infighting the regime him saying about his brother’s relapse, “I am sorry and very pained. My brother Omar al-Rahmoun returned to the regime committing an act of apostasy away from his folk and people. You shamed us Omar.”
It seems that the regime was not satisfied of Omar’s return alone, he was demanded to pay the price of the return and offer evidence for his loyalty. Aleppo was the test in which Omar who calls himself Sheikh succeeded without considering the fall of a whole city the size of Aleppo and without considering that he became naked in front of everyone.
When Omar returned to the regime, Sami, who was still fighting the regime with one hand, commented on his brother saying, “God’s punishment between us and you.” So what would this leader who sacrifices every day say today? And he was pained when the family is cursed because of Omar al-Rahmoun.
-In the officers’ camp-
Omar al-Rahmoun was among the notables’ delegate in Hama which met Bashar two months after the outbreak of the revolution. Back then, the sheikh left the meeting saying it was a good meeting, according to what regime media reported.
Al-Rahmoun added back then that, “president Assad clarified that he knows that the protesters teared his photos in the streets, but it does not matter. He does not want prayers for him by force, he wants honest prayers to be heard by God and it is the most important and he who does not want to pray for him is free.”
Omar moved later between several factions and formations including Abu al-Alameen Battalions formed by his brother Sami, Ahrar al-Sufiye Movement, Ahrar al-Sham, Revolution leadership Council in Hama and its countryside, and Jaish al-Thwar.
During his movement between these formation except for Jaish al-Thwar which was considered mercenary faction, Omar al-Rahmoun knew the proceedings of plans and battles and he was in contact with many military and political personalities.
His contacts even were higher in level as he used to do speeches in Friday prayers for defected officers in their special camp in Turkey. Some of these speeches can still be found on the internet.
During 2016, and in conjunction with announcement of formation of Jaish al-Thwar militia, Omar al-Rahmoun’s name came up again as a member in the Shura Council of the militia. Then, he was not able to stay in Turkey anymore, so he ran away to Kurdish Peoples’ Protection Units (YPG) in Efrin and later to the regime.
Before everyone
What is interesting is that Omar al-Rahmoun was still insisting on presenting himself as the sheikh and someone who cares about the Syrian people. He was still insisting on using the regime terminology forgetting what he does and is involved in contradicts what he says one way or another.
What is still more interesting is al-Rahmoun’s ability to predict if we are not to say his ability to give orders for the cells like him working in Aleppo. He said very clearly since 18 November that, “Aleppo said goodbye to the revolution, there are only few frills.”
There was not much attention to this back then, but Aleppo recent agreement showed how dangerous al-Rahmoun’s statement is or whoever has told him to say it.
Al-Rahmoun since he returned to the regime, he would meet with regime officers as
a leaked photo shows.
On December 11, before anyone would even think about it, al-Rahmoun stated literally, “Aleppo city will return to regime soon, and talking about Aleppo epic is empty talk.”
Remains to say that the intelligence archive owned by Zaman al-Wasl shows clearly more than arrest warrants for the rebel leader Sami al-Rahmoun in addition to 3 arrest warrants for Omar al-Rahmoun issued by the General Intelligence, Military Intelligence, and Intelligence Branch. This proves Sami’s true words about his brother Omar when he disclaimed that his brother was regime agent before.
These warrants increase the confusion regarding Omar who changed his stand from the revolution to its enemy and the enemy of the people. It makes us ask that was finishing Aleppo agreement the key for regime to be happy with Omar and the main condition to forgive him? Will what al-Rahmoun offer be enough to secure him immunity from a treachery that those who sold themselves to regime has always suffered from.
