Asharq Al-Awsat -By Tariq Alhomayed<\/a>: The Syrian Ambassador to Iraq\u2019s defection was not only a slap in the face for the tyrant of Damascus; it also came as a blow to Nuri al-Maliki\u2019s government, especially when you take into account the Iraqi president\u2019s famous assessment of the events in Syria, when he said: \u201cIt has been one year and the regime did not fall, it will not fall, and why should it fall?\u201d<\/p>\n

After Syrian Ambassador Nawaf al-Fares defected, he revealed in an interview with the Sunday Telegraph that the al-Assad regime used to send terrorists to fight the Americans in Iraq and carry out terrorist operations there. It is amazing that al-Fares says he used to oversee this when he was governor of Deir Al-Zour, receiving \u201cverbal commandments\u201d from the al-Assad regime itself, which according to al-Fares had formed an alliance with al-Qaeda! Of course, the Iraqi government immediately felt confused [by this revelation], especially as al-Maliki has been a prominent defender of al-Assad, and Ali al-Moussawi, an advisor to the Iraqi Prime Minister, responded by saying: \u201cWe will pursue dissident Ambassador Nawaf al-Fares by all means possible, because he covertly facilitated the entry of criminal terrorists [into Iraq]\u201d.
This is an incredible response, and it warrants several questions. Did the Iraqi government have to wait for the dissident ambassador\u2019s revelation in order to know that al-Assad was behind the entry of terrorists into Iraq? Is it conceivable that when the Iraqi government wants to punish those who shed the blood of its citizens, it seeks to prosecute only Ambassador al-Fares, rather than taking a firm stand against the tyrant al-Assad who today is terrorizing his own people? This is unbelievable. Furthermore, ever since Hoshyar Zebari\u2019s comments against al-Assad last week, the Iraqi government has been trying to mitigate the situation and display neutrality towards the Syrian regime, resorting to ridiculous statements about the need for a peaceful solution with al-Assad and ruling out the military option.
Therefore, it is clear that dissident Ambassador Nawaf al-Fares\u2019 comments not only pose a problem for al-Assad, but also for the current Baghdad government blinded by sectarianism and Iranian influence. Iraq refuses to take the righteous stand with the Syrian people against the tyrant al-Assad, who has contributed significantly to instability in Iraq for almost 8 years. Even when al-Fares declares that he witnessed the smuggling of terrorists into Iraq via the Syrian border, under the orders of the al-Assad regime, the Iraqi government announces its intention to hunt down the dissident ambassador, rather than seeking to address the crimes of the al-Assad regime and alleviate the suffering of the Syrians and the wider region!
The truth is that al-Fares\u2019 defection, whatever his previous positions, is an important development and represents a shock to the al-Assad regime, because it opens the door for further divisions within the tyrannical regime\u2019s diplomatic corps, and this can only benefit the Syrian revolution.
The sole defection of a Syrian Ambassador served to confirm al-Assad\u2019s crimes in Iraq and expose al-Maliki\u2019s sectarian government. Imagine what would happen if the Syrian Ambassador to Lebanon defected, for example, and what we would learn about al-Assad\u2019s crimes in that country! But what if al-Assad himself were to fall, surely this would mean that our region, and first and foremost the Syrians, would be free from a horrendous, bloodthirsty, criminal regime that has plagued the Middle East for the past 40 years!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
