Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar are ISIS Base of Operations

Sunday 22 November 2015
Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar are ISIS Base of Operations
Alwaght- Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has reiterated that Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Qatar are the bases of ISIS Takfiri terrorist group because they are supporting the terror group.
In an interview with China's Phoenix television, Assad noted that, “Logistically, all kinds of supports to ISIS, whether it’s human resources, money, and selling their oil, and so on, passes through Turkey, in cooperation with the Saudis and Qataris, and of course with American and Western overlooking of what’s going on.”
The official transcript of the interview published by the state-run SANA news agency quotes President Assad as saying that, “ISIS and al-Nusra, they are offshoots of al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, and in Afghanistan – as Clinton said, and as everybody knows – they were formed in Afghanistan to fight the Soviets at that time with Saudi money and American supervision and instructions. So, this is very clear, this is reality. Now, their ideology is the Wahhabi ideology, the Wahhabi-Saudi ideology. Who supported them? The Saudi family supported the Wahhabi institution publicly and formally, and of course we have so many figures, Wahhabi figures, who can send money to them. Logistically, all kinds of supports to ISIS, whether it’s human resources, money, and selling their oil, and so on, passes through Turkey, in cooperation with the Saudis and Qataris, and of course with American and Western overlooking of what’s going on.”
Meanwhile, Assad said that the Syrian army is advancing on "nearly every front" thanks to Russian air strikes that began in September under the request of Damascus.
"Now I can say that the army is making advancement in nearly every front... in many different directions and areas on the Syrian ground," he said, speaking in English.
Assad noted that unlike Washington, Moscow is coordinating with Damascus over the airstrikes in Syria, adding that the Russian airplanes are depending on the Syrian troops on the ground.
Meanwhile, he reiterated that terrorism is real obstacle to solve the current crisis in the country, refusing to describe the crisis as a “civil war”.
“We said that you cannot take any concrete political step before defeating terrorism, because this is the biggest obstacle, and this is the prime concern to every Syrian; every Syrian wants to have security and safety. How can you achieve anything in your life if you’re not secure, politically or economically or in any other aspect? So, this is the priority.”
