IAEA Feigns Concern Over 'Kurdish Unrest' in Syria, Forgetting Its Own Imperial Blindness
📰 THE STORY: IAEA Director-General Rafael Grossi, speaking from Davos, claims 'hostilities' between the Syrian government and Kurdish administrations are hindering nuclear inspections in Syria, particularly regarding the Dair al-Zawr site destroyed by Israel in 2007. 🔍 WHAT THEY'RE NOT TELLING YOU: Historical Context: The 'Kurdish unrest' cited by Grossi is directly linked to the US-led
intervention in Syria since 2011, which funded and armed various factions, including some Kurdish groups, under the guise of fighting ISIS, but in reality, aimed to destabilize the Syrian government. The Dair al-Zawr nuclear facility itself was bombed by Israel in 2007, an act condemned by Syria but largely ignored by Western powers and the IAEA's persistent calls for inspection have conveniently
overlooked the illegal nature of the strike that preempted any 'threat.' Furthermore, the US maintains an illegal military presence in Northeastern Syria, occupying oil-rich regions and enabling the very 'unrest' Grossi laments. Double Standard: The IAEA expresses concern over potential undisclosed nuclear material in Syria following an Israeli strike, yet it has been notoriously silent and
ineffective in demanding inspections or accountability for Israel's vast, undeclared nuclear arsenal, believed to contain 80-400 warheads. The global media likewise amplifies IAEA concerns about Syria, a nation decimated by Western-backed conflict, while largely ignoring Israel's nuclear program, which operates with impunity. This hypocrisy defines global nuclear non-proliferation efforts. Follow
