Let’s Defend the Syrian People and the Rojava Revolution Against Imperialist Aggression, Occupation, Attacks and Massacres!

In general, the Syrian people in particular,  and the Rojava Revolution, are under the threat of massacres once again by the imperialists, fascist and reactionary states, and by the gangs of Daesh. In parallel with the Zionist regime’s ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, the Daesh army based in Idlib, Syria, Tahrir alSham (HTS) and the fascist Syrian National Army (SMA) and other gangs have launched attacks and occupied the city of Aleppo. Close to a million people from Aleppo have been displaced. The Kurdish people displaced from Aleppo and its surrounding areas are under threat of massacre. Also in Aleppo, the Christian and Yazidi people are under threat of massacre by ISISaffiliated gangs, particularly in Kurdish neighborhoods.

The occupation attack on Aleppo cannot be evaluated independently of the regional policies of the Turkish state, which is a NATO member, US imperialism and Zionist Israel. Although this attack includes the elements of inter-imperialist power struggle and bargaining that are dominant in the region, concretely, it aims to topple the Assad regime, cut off the supply route for Hezbollah from Iran to Lebanon, push back Iran, and force Russia to detach forces from Ukraine to defend its positions in Syria. The US and EU imperialists have provided “consultants” to ISIS remnant gangs through Ukraine, including the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. The Turkish state provided all kinds of logistical support to the gangs and, moreover, directed and managed the attack. Zionist Israel, on the other hand, apparently applied the explosive pager/radio attack to Syria as well, disrupting the tactical command and control of the Assad regime in the attack of ISIS remnant gangs.

The fascist Turkish state, which condemns Israel at every opportunity and propagandizes that it is on the side of the Palestinian people, on the one hand, continues all kinds of trade, especially oil shipments, with Israel, and on the other hand, it wants to invade Aleppo and strengthen its hand through the gangs it has trained, equipped and protected in Idlib. This move also means indirect support for Zionist Israel by unleashing the strings of ISIS remnant gangs.

The fact that the attack of these gangs on Aleppo was carried out directly with the partnership of the USA-Israel and the Republic of Turkey is understood from both the posts of the gang elements and the propaganda broadcasts of the Turkish media. While Western imperialism propagandizes the ISIS remnants as “opponents of the Assad regime”, the Turkish state is collaborating with HTS, which it also defines as a “terrorist organization,” in the Aleppo attack. Accompanied by the propaganda that “Aleppo is a Turkish homeland”, the partisan media markets the ISIS remnant gangs as “opponents of the Assad regime”. Although the coordinated action of Turkish fascism with gangs is not a secret, the recent occupation attack on Aleppo has once again confirmed this fact.

Another goal of the occupation attacks of the Turkish state in Syria is the liquidation of the Northeast Regional Autonomous Administration. From the point of view of Turkish fascism, the liquidation of the Rojava Revolution and the gains of the Kurdish national movement is a strategic goal. In other words, one of the targets of the attack of the ISIS remnant gangs trained, equipped, directed and managed by Turkish fascism is the Rojava Revolution. As a matter of fact, the Turkish-controlled fascist gangs called the SNA launched an offensive against the areas under the control of the Autonomous Administration, which they called “Dawn of Freedom”. The Rojava Revolution is facing a new ISIS-like danger. The NATO axis led by the USA and the UK; They want to create ISIS from gang groups such as HTS and SNA and establish dominance in the whole of Syria through it. On the other hand, Turkish fascism, which is an active actor in the field of this scenario, has also invaded Rojava’s land by gangs and has actually started this on the Şehba Til Rıfat line. Tens of thousands of people in this region are under the threat of massacre by ISIS remnant gangs under the direct direction of Turkish fascism.

All democratic, patriotic, revolutionary and progressive sectors should stand with the oppressed Syrian people and heed the call for mobilization to defend the gains of Rojava and the Kurdish nation.

Down with All Kinds of Imperialist Aggression, Occupation and Annexation Policies
