(March 2016: Latakia, Syria) - The current cease fire in Syria has brought hope to Syrians that the 5 year conflict may be ending. People are returning to Homs and rebuilding efforts are underway across Syria, in those areas which have been made free of terrorist attacks.

Latakia Province, on the coast, has been freed of all terrorists through an effort by the Syrian government forces, and some foreign allies, and the Russian Air Force, which arrived in October 2015.

However, the tiny Syrian Christian Armenian village of Kessab, on the Turkish border in Latakia Province, is still not safe. Currently, there is a Turkish sniper, using an Israeli designed sniper weapon, provided to them by the CIA, who is shooting at anyone or anything that moves.

“We can’t stick our head out of the house.” said one current Kessab resident.

“We had thought we could drive up to Kessab, from Latakia where we are renting, to make repairs on our home, which was destroyed by the Free Syrian Army (FSA) and allied terrorists on March 21, 2014. However, even though the Latakia Province is safe and secure now, the sniper on the Turkish border is preventing us from driving up to Kessab. We heard that Armenians were returning to their homes in Homs, but we can’t get to Kessab.” said a Kessab refugee in Latakia.

The CIA chief operative, based in Izmir, is an American male, native of a state in USA which is referred to as “The Deep South”. He has been stationed in Turkey since at least 2000. He and his director in Langley, Virginia, by direct orders of the American President Obama, have been providing weapons, technology, training and satellite imagery to the FSA and their allies. The CIA program of support has been aided by hundreds of millions of dollars, coming by legal act of Congress, provided directly by the American taxpayers, who have paid the wages of the FSA and their allies.

The FSA are called “moderate rebels” in the American media, and by the Obama government. However, those moderate rebels have beheaded, raped, tortured, murdered and kidnapped Syrian Christians in Kessab, and in the area near Homs and Tartus called historically, “The Valley of the Christians”.

In fact, it was a FSA soldier who cut out the liver of a Syrian man and ate it live on video. It became such an international sensation, that a well known British journalist was sent to Syria to personally interview the “moderate cannibal”.

On March 21, 2014 at 6 am, the Turkish military began using heavy canons to bombard Kessab. The unarmed civilians were fast asleep in their own beds. The Turkish military helicopters began shooting rockets at the light contingent of Syrian Arab Army soldiers stationed there. Thousands of foreign terrorists accompanied the FSA as they poured into Kessab. Jibhat al Nusra and Al Qaeda, as well as the Islamic Front, all fought side by side with the American supported FSA, as they went from house to house and began the massacre of Kessab.

The FSA and their radical terrorist allies beheaded 13 that morning, and killed a total of 88 unarmed civilians, who were all Syrian Armenian Christians. Most able bodied persons fled to Latakia for safety. However, 24 very elderly and mostly immobile persons were forced to be left behind in the chaos. Those 24 persons, all over the age of 80, were kept together for 11 days in Kessab, until on April 1, 2014 they were kidnapped and taken to Turkey, where they were kept against their will for 3 months. One of the kidnap victims died in Turkey and was buried there, not from old age, but from the abuse suffered. They were transported to Vikifly, Turkey by the FSA and held hostage there. On their first day of captivity in Turkey, April 1, 2014, the American Ambassador to Turkey, came to visit the kidnap victims. Francis J. Ricciardone, Jr was Ambassador to Turkey from Jan. 1, 2011 until July 7, 2014. His visit was directly coordinated by the FSA, under the direction of the US State Department. The elderly Armenians were thrilled to see the American Ambassador and his assistants, aided by a well known Syrian Turkoman translator, Khalil Nezar, who translated from Armenian into Turkish, Arabic and English, for the benefit of those present. The American Ambassador asked only one question of those kidnap victims: “Are any of you American citizens?” They all answered, that they were all Syrian citizens. He then left them to rot in captivity for 3 months in a foreign country. Finally, after 3 months of heated battles, the Syrian Arab Army was able to free the village of Kessab, and at the same time, the Turkish government transported the kidnapped elderly Syrians to Beirut, Lebanon by air, and then they came to Latakia, Syria by bus. They were at last reunited with relatives and neighbors who had been sheltering at the Armenian Church in Latakia. It was then that the true stories of horror at the hands of the US sponsored FSA and their Turkish allies came to light. Those kidnap victims were witness to the burning of all 3 churches in Kessab by the terrorists. The moderate rebels also assisted in the total destruction of homes, shops, schools, cultural center, farms, soap factories and hotels. Among the war crimes the American supported terrorists did was the rape of the elderly women held captive.

When this crime was first reported it was so shocking and disgusting that most writers decided to not include it with the details and documentation of the destruction of Kessab. However, now after 5 years of war, and 2 years since the massacre at Kessab, the detail of the rape of elderly Armenian women by the American supported and sponsored moderate rebels is now coming forth in loud voices, so that history will not be allowed to repeat itself. The details are coming forth for the entire world to hear from the women in Kessab.

On the very same day that the elderly were kidnapped to Turkey, the President of the American supported Syrian National Coalition, based in Istanbul, Turkey, Ahmed Jarba came to Kessab to personally greet his victorious troops on the massacre of Syrian Christians and the destruction of all 3 churches. Within weeks Jarba was sitting at the White House meeting with Pres. Obama, Susan Rice and Sec. of State John Kerry. When word spread of the massacre and destruction of Kessab on March 21, 2014 the US Ambassador to the UN, Samantha Power, made a public statement, along with Victoria Nuland, that the US was concerned about the attack at Kessab, however those terrorists involved had no relationship with USA. However, this was proven false, as Pres. Jarba came to congratulate his troops, the FSA, inside Kessab. This proves that the US sponsored moderate rebels were indeed involved in the attack, massacre, rapes, occupation and kidnapping. The direct involvement of the US Ambassador visiting the captives in Turkey proves the direct involvement of the American government in the attack, massacre, destruction, rapes and kidnapping which occurred in Kessab beginning on March 21, 2014 and continued for 3 months.

Turkish journalists, and a Member of Parliament, had discovered and exposed the Turkish government’s involvement in the transportation of weapons to the terrorists in Syria. Each were in turn arrested and jailed for their expose. Recently, several were released by order of the Turkish Judicial system, at which time the President of Turkey responded with a statement that he does not recognize the authority of the Turkish Justice Department, Judges or court rulings.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton charged her Ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, with the job of securing the shipment of weapons seized by the US government, which were formerly the property of the government of Libya. Once USA and NATO had completed the disposing of the former leader of Libya, Muamar Qadafi, his government’s weapons became official US property. Clinton ordered the shipments of weapons to go from Benghazi to Iskenderun, Turkey. Once they docked in Turkey, the weapons were off loaded by Turkish military intelligence agents and transported directly to the terrorists in Syria. The Turkish police happened to come upon a truck load of those weapons, and dubious manifests. Those police officers were later arrested, who exposed the flow of weapons to the terrorists in Syria, and jailed by President Erdogan.

Publically, Russia and USA have both asked President Erdogan to close and secure the Turkish borders with Syria, to prevent the easy access of weapons and terrorists coming into Syria. However, the Turkish President has never given any orders to secure the borders. Instead, the flow of weapons, aid, supplies and terrorists continue to flow freely.

Even American Senators have passed freely, through illegal entry points into Syria, in direct violation of international law. Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, met personally with FSA commanders and troops at their headquarters near Idlib. This same Senator is against any and all illegal entries into USA by foreigners. However, his example is a direct contradiction of his values, and portrays him as an international criminal.

President Obama’s government and many other US elected officials have rallied support for the FSA. They have supported the moderate rebels since 2011, and they continue to call them the moderate rebels, and to defend their positions in Syria, even though they are all well aware of the war crimes and atrocities the FSA and their allies have committed.

The upcoming meeting for Syria scheduled for March 9, 2016 will be an opportunity for the beginning of a peaceful transition in Syria. The word transition means to move, and that movement for peace in Syria depends on the movement of all terrorists and their weapons out of Syria and back to their origins inside Turkey. The Syrian people are hungry for peace to return to their land. The apple growers of Kessab want to care for and harvest their crops this summer in peace. Their peace depends on the Turkish side of the border.
