Unfortunately, the only right action the US took in Syria in the past five years was an airstrike, but the target was wrong. American jets struck the regime’s military sites in Deir Ezzor for the first time.
Although Russian forces attacked, more than once, Syrian opposition sites and did not justify or apologize, Washington, on the other hand, did admit its mistake and apologize.
If the US forces had continued to target Assad’s forces intentionally or by mistake, the regime would have shown more interest in negotiations and peaceful solutions to end the crisis in Syria. However, the lack of balance in the face of Iran and Russia — supporters of the Assad regime — has led to the persistence of war. The lack of balance also gave birth to Daesh and propped the Syrian regime’s rejection of any solution that doesn’t grant it full control over the country.
Before the first airstrike that targeted them, regime forces were in full control of the Syrian airspace during the five-year war.
Yet, a question arises: Is it true that the airstrike was intentional, according to media rumors? The answer is: Absolutely not, because the Americans would have justified their action in a different way or even blamed the regime forces or the Russians. Washington, however, admitted its mistake which was a result of poor coordination.
Since Moscow joined the war in Syria, Washington has been showing keenness to avoid clashes between the US-led coalition forces and Assad regime allies.
On the Syrian territories, the Americans, Russians and Turks agree that there is one enemy: Daesh. Russians are known for their steady and huge military presence on the ground beside the Iranian and Syrian forces against the Syrian opposition, which continues to amaze the world with its resistance.
The Syrian opposition prevented Assad’s forces, Iranians and Russians from achieving their plan, which is to end the crisis by raging their war collectively. They failed, although they besieged the Free Syrian Army (FSA) in several areas.
The US raid on Assad’s forces might motivate Russians to coordinate more in order to avoid similar mistakes. It is also possible that the Russians will exploit this in an adverse way through downsizing the US military presence in the Syrian airspace.
US President Barack Obama’s tenure is almost over; the time is ticking and new ideas for a political solution must be suggested following the latest negotiations between Washington and Moscow.
