Angela Rayner’s masks drops as ignorance on world affairs uncovered | Politics | News | EUROtoday

You’d assume when a murderous dictator will get overthrown by a radical Islamist military the implications of which might be a critically heightened terrorist risk that right here in Britain our Government would at the very least recognise the risk and give you a co-ordinated response.

Nope, an excessive amount of to hope from Starmer’s Doolally Army. The bunch of amateurs who now occupy No. 10 have zero information of geo politics and their understanding of world affairs befits that of a bunch of sixth kind politics college students.

It was clear this week when Syria’s President Assad was kicked overseas by the proscribed terror group, HTC, that issues may not be rosy for the way forward for the nation or for the remainder of the world.

But that wasn’t the impression given by key members of THIS Government who didn’t really perceive what had occurred and easily believed the actual fact Assad had gone was a fantastically great factor. It clearly hadn’t hit them that the nation was now within the fingers of a radical Islamist motion.

First, there was Angela Rayner who when requested in regards to the coup appeared like a rabbit caught in automobile headlights. She gave a sequence of automobile crash interviews the place it was clear she didn’t perceive what was occurring may solely handle to repeat a few sentences Starmer had uttered earlier.

It was terrifying – and – embarrassing – how out of her depth she was in her information about Syria and it exemplified the full incompetence of this Government.

She really appeared to welcome the information that Syria had simply been taken over by a jihadist group whose origins are in al-Qaeda and who for years right here in Britain have been a proscribed terrorist group.

Which leads me to cupboard secretary, Pat McFadden, who when requested if the Government was more likely to take away the proscribed terror standing of HTC he mentioned it hadn’t determined but however the Government would make a swift resolution.

That’s completely what it should not do. It should wait and see how this new Government pans out and whether or not all the assorted factions can create a smart Government. It should wait and see whether or not HTC’s chief, Abu Mohammed al Jawlani (the bloke who has a $10M greenback bounty on his head within the US) will maintain all his guarantees that the group is now all about range, ladies rights, democracy and a “new free Syria” blah blah….

Then our nice huge lummox of a international secretary, David Lammy, who’d mentioned little or no for the primary 24 hours after Assad’s overthrow, turned up within the commons and introduced Britain was giving £11m in help to Syria – effectively, was that to Syria or will it go straight into the pockets of this terror group?

First, Lammy claimed Syria was subsequent door to Libya – unsuitable. They’re a thousand miles aside Then, attempting to appear to be the statesman he isn’t he referred to as Assad a “rat” and some different names and it quickly it turned clear he didn’t know what was occurring both and when requested if Britain was going to halt asylum claims for Syrians – he mentioned he didn’t know.

Odd as a result of a number of hours beforehand our Home Secretary Yvette Cooper had introduced that’s precisely what was occurring. So why didn’t he know that? Its his job.

Then we had Starmer in Saudi Arabia doing what he repeatedly berated the final Tory authorities of doing – consistently fleeing overseas to do industrial offers – simply spouting meaningless waffle.

What is it with Starmer – he’s by no means the place he’s s alleged to be? Had he been on the re- opening of Notre Dame in Paris this weekend the place President elect Trump and Macron had been he’d have been a part of the talks about how Europe was going to deal with Syria.

But he wasn’t. Does Starmer understands this new terrorist risk to Britain? Does he know there are 50,000 IS fighters being held prisoner in camps in northern Syria by Kurdish troops and if out of the blue they cease guarding these prisoners there might be an upsurge in terrorism within the UK.

That’s not me saying that, it’s the previous head of M16, Sir Alex Younger, who described these camps as a “hotbed of radicalisation.”

And he mentioned if the Kurdish forces now not maintained these camps then we are able to count on a critical spike within the threats posed to Europe by ISIS and Syria may change into a significant exporter of jihad.

But hey, based on Sir Keir, all the things’s good. Assad the murderous dictator is gone – so all the things is nice.

This all has echoes of Afghanistan. Remember the vacuum that emerged after Biden pulled out his troops? Remember how the Taliban tried to persuade the world it had modified, that it was a reformed pressure that may defend ladies’s rights and never take revenge on those that’d labored with coalition forces.

They lied – about all of it. And now ladies have zero rights in Afghanistan.

And I don’t imagine this new lot in Syria shall be any totally different – as soon as a jihadi all the time a jihadi. And if terrifies me we now have a Government that not solely doesn’t see the risk however has no concept methods to defend us.

I wish to imagine Jawlani is a modified man. I wish to imagine he’ll convey peace to Syria – however I don’t. He has gallons of blood on his fingers as a result of he fought the US in Iraq – therefore the $10m on his head.

I worry he’s simply taking part in the position the West desires him to play till he has established his Government and his regime. For those that imagine Syria is now a free nation – they shouldn’t. Jawlani doesn’t imagine in free international locations. Nor does he imagine in democracy as a result of Jihadis don’t.

I do know these Syrians returning to their nation desperately wish to imagine it may’t be worse than it was underneath Assad – however I worry it could be.
