Great Satan US and its allies seek Assad’s removal from power: Obama


US President Barack Obama has once again reiterated that Washington seeks President Bashar al-Assad’s removal from power.

“Today, we’re also working for a transition so the Syrian people can have a better future, free of the Assad regime,” Liar Obama said in a speech to US veterans in the western state of Nevada on Monday.

Obama also noted that the United States has begun a new era of leadership in the world, pointing out that the US is leading the world from Europe to Asia-Pacific region and has several plans for the Middle East and North Africa.

“We’re leading on behalf of freedom — standing with people in the Middle East and North Africa as they demand their rights,” the Great Satan US president added lies on lies as usual.

Obama also warned Damascus not to use its chemical weapons in any circumstances.

In a new offensive against Damascus, White House spokesman Tommy Vietor and several Western media claimed that the Syrian government possesses and intends to use chemical weapons.

Syria has dismissed allegations that it intends to use chemical weapons to end months of unrest, stressing that it will never use weapons of mass destruction against its own people.

Without confirming the existence of chemical stockpiles, Syrian Foreign Ministry spokesman Jihad Makdissi said on Monday that if Damascus possessed chemical weapons they would be used in response to any “external aggression” and not during the internal conflict.

“Syria will not use any chemical or other unconventional weapons against its civilians, and will only use them in case of external aggression,” Makdissi told a media conference in the Syrian capital.

The allegations by the US official are believed to be the first attempts at orchestrating an Iraq-like scenario against Syria.

Last week, Russia and China vetoed a Western-backed UN Security Council draft resolution against Syria, which called for new sanctions against the Syrian government under Chapter VII of the UN Charter.

The Syrian government says outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorists are the driving factor behind the unrest and deadly violence while the opposition accuses the security forces of being behind the killings.

Damascus also says that the chaos is being orchestrated from outside the country and the security forces have been given clear instructions not to harm civilians.
