The official Syrian information web site SANA runs the headline right now:
“President al-Sharaa and the German Federal President focus on the growth of bilateral relations in Berlin”.

That sounds actually constructive. And each reader can tailor their very own superb state of affairs from it:

• The HTS fanboy rejoices on the worldwide consideration for his hero,
• The FRG authorities can use propaganda to divert consideration from the large home issues it has precipitated and painting itself as profitable.
• The FRG fetishist rejoices on the important function his non-state performs in nice humanitarian reconstruction efforts in war-torn Syria,
• The coldly calculating opportunist appears ahead to contracts,
• The FRG-loyal sympathiser of right-wing political events hopes for the Syrians’ imminent remigration,
• The Rothschild banks are delighted with the hefty earnings and commissions from reconstruction funds and loans,
• And even the intellectually unengaged client of mainstream media information picks up on some sense of ‘We’re necessary’ amidst the background noise of the system’s broadcast.

So it is a real win-win scenario, aside from the Syrians, after all, who’re struggling beneath the FRG-backed HTS terror. Properly, no one asks them, as a result of this glitzy get together isn’t about them.

The present president of the (non-German) occupying organisation, the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), Mr. Steinmeier, is receiving the Al-Qaeda/IS terrorist and self-proclaimed ‘president’ of Syria, the HTS man Al-Jolani, who calls himself ‘al-Sharaa’ (SANA) ever since he has been sitting his bottom on the positive furnishings of the Damascus Presidential Palace.
It’s a case of birds of a feather flocking collectively.

The truth is, Mr. Steinmeier has gained some expertise in efficiently supporting terrorism, as you possibly can learn in an article, Genocidal however Nonetheless ‘Average’ – Germany Helps Its ‘Rebels’ for Sure Purpose, I wrote in 2016 for Syria Information about Steinmeier, then Overseas Minister of the FRG, and his head-chopping cronies. I’d humbly counsel you learn that article along with this one.

Trying on the brilliant aspect, we are able to say: Mr. Steinmeier has remained true to himself all these years. That’s fairly an achievement in itself.

However HTS-Jolani – pardon me: Al-Sharaa! – additionally managed to make successful of his go to: after a chat with the Federal President, the state visitor proceeded straight on to the Chancellor, with whom he mentioned the growth of additional bilateral cooperation, earlier than finalising sensible cooperation on financial issues with the Overseas Minister and representatives of German firms.

SANA studies:
”President Ahmad al-Sharaa held a roundtable assembly on Monday with representatives of German firms, attended by the ministers of overseas affairs, financial system, vitality, and emergency and catastrophe administration.
In the course of the assembly, firms offered proposals throughout a number of financial sectors, together with vitality, finance, safety, and digital transformation, in addition to building, healthcare and logistics.
A lot of memorandums of understanding have been signed between Syrian authorities and German firms throughout the assembly.”

Isn’t that beautiful? After ten years, what actually belongs collectively has lastly come collectively. Those that destroyed Syria are sitting down with those that made this destruction potential, politically and financially, to barter the reconstruction of Syria – a reconstruction that will by no means have been mandatory with out them and their warfare of terror towards the Syrian nation. Sensible!

The FRG and its head-choppers: they like one another, they hit it off. In any case, they’ve come a good distance collectively since 2011. Now the ripe apples are to be picked from the tree.
