A
senior Iranian commander says the United States seeks to destabilize
Syria in an attempt to safeguard Israel’s interests in the Middle East.
“By using the assistance of some of the regional countries and one of Syria’s Muslim neighbors and dispatching armed mercenaries and terrorists, they (the Americans) intend to bring the Wahhabis to power in Syria,” said Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces Major General Hassan Firouzabadi on Saturday.
“In this way, the US and the Zionist regime seek to bring a new hope for existence to the evading Zionists,” he added.
Firouzabadi pointed out that the Syrian nation will not be deceived by such US plots and it will not surrender the country to Israel.
In late May, a media report revealed that US-led Western countries and their Arab puppets are plotting to use the Lebanese soil to destabilize neighboring Syria.
According to the exposed plot, the Jabal Mohsen neighborhood in the northern Lebanese port city of Tripoli should be attacked by the US and Saudi-backed Wahhabi forces from all sides to mislead the public opinion and involve the Lebanese army in the region.
By pushing the Lebanese army towards Tripoli, the northern part of the country would be ready for anti-Syrian forces to be deployed, the sources said.
Another report had earlier said the US aims to create small protected areas in Lebanon and use them as military training camps to be used by al-Qaeda and the Syrian opposition.
Also other informed sources revealed in late May that Jordanian ruler King Abdullah II allowed the US troops to train hundreds of members of the so-called Free Syrian Army along with Jordanian forces in order to prepare them for participating in an international military drill in the country.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since mid-March 2011 and many people, including hundreds of security forces, have been killed in the unrest.
While the West and the Syrian opposition say the government is responsible for the violence, Damascus blames "outlaws, saboteurs and armed terrorist groups" for the unrest and insists that it is being orchestrated from abroad.
