U.S. Vice President Warns of Minority Persecution in Syria After Recent Massacres

U.S. Vice President Warns of Minority Persecution in Syria After Recent Massacres

Vice President of the United States, JD Vance, has expressed grave concerns over reports of targeted violence against minority groups in Syria, describing the situation as potentially “a horrific massacre” and stressed the need for urgent action.

Earlier this month, the Syrian interim government, which is led by Islamists factions, unleashed a deadly crackdown on the Syrian coast. Nearly 1,500 civilians, mainly Chirstans and Alawites, were killed, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which reported some 50 separate massacres orchestrated by government forces, loyalists and foreign jihadists.

In an interview with Fox News on March 14, Vance stated that the administration of President Donald Trump is working to determine the true extent of the violence, questioning whether it constitutes isolated incidents or a broader campaign of mass persecution.

“It looks really bad, and we’re trying to figure out exactly how bad it is—whether this is something limited to what we see on social media or if we’re dealing with mass genocide,” he said.

Vance attributed the worsening crisis to radical elements that gained ground in Syria, criticizing past U.S. policies that emboldened Islamist factions.

“Unfortunately, when America encourages these so-called rebels to take over a country, it’s religious minorities—especially Christians—that suffer the most. We do not want to see another Christian community erased from the face of the earth,” Vance asserted.

The Vice President also confirmed that Washington has already begun diplomatic engagements to ensure the protection of vulnerable communities, including Christians and Druze. He ruled out military intervention, but stressed the importance of leveraging diplomatic and economic tools to safeguard Syria’s historical minorities.

“We’re talking to our allies. We’re already working behind the scenes to push for protections for minorities. But it’s truly scandalous,” he said.

Vance went on to draw a comparison to Iraq, where the U.S.-led invasion of 2003 contributed to the decimation of one of the world’s oldest Christian populations.

“Whatever your views on the Iraq War, the result was the destruction of an ancient Christian community. We cannot allow that to happen again,” he warned.

The Syrian interim government attempted to dodge responsibility by announcing that all operations on the coast were over, then forming an investigation committee. Nevertheless, the killings and an array of violations targeting minorities there continue.

The massacres have so far displaced at least 10,000 civilians to the governorate of Baalbek-Hermel in eastern Lebanon with more that 8,000 others taking shelter at Russia’s Khmeimim Air Base near the city of Jableh in Latakia. Alawites make the majority of the displaced.

With no direct military involvement, it is unclear how the U.S. could protect minorities in Syria. Collaborating with Russia, which also maintains a strong influence in Syria, may be one way. The two sides have already showed willingness to work together on the matter when the a statement drafted by them against the recent violence on the Syrian coast was adopted by the United Nations Security Council on March 14.

tell israel to enslave them all. al qaeda will kill them all if israel does not intervene immediately and create a state called the buffer zone.

annexation to Israel

if israel doesn’t annex them or create a state for them (like abkhazia), isis terrorists will kill them all. for them, the only option is for israel to protect them, and if they are inside israel, erdogan probably won’t dare to attack.

Use banana

erdogan pays salary ti these isis jihadists every mounth as a nato country.

Attila

isis created by western country to protect israel . nothing to do with turkiye

erdogan very clever and strong 💪 let hope israel make that move.

that always was shlomo’s plan. there is nothing more nauseating than the zio regime, fresh from its gaza genocide, shedding crocodile tears and posing as a protector of moslems from jewlani and their own pet proxy cannibal head choppers. the idea of the zio regime or the jewsa protecting moslems is like the gestapo protecting jews. but some people want to believe in an alice in wonderland world of pink ponies and unicorns.

Milkkelsen

israelis know that even egypt is a threat. they have been building up their army. the lion continues to decline in the west and tbe dragon rises in the east. just like the fall of the roman empire. turkey and egypt bide their time and they are 100% wild cards

Dragana

what? he’s going to tell israel to create a state called buffer zone? this would be absolutely necessary because these people must have their own country. given that western sahara, south ossetia, abkhazia, etc. also exist in the world, i really don’t see why there shouldn’t be a new state. and this country would be nicely covered by israel, just as south ossetia and abkhazia are covered by russia.

i hope so, because there is no other solution than to establish a new state. israel would guard this country like it guards the druze. the state should include christians and alawites, because the al qaeda state will kill everyone as part of its jihad. but if they got a new country on the coast, more than half of all the problems would be solved. erdogan can play with his jihadists on his border if he wants.

annexation to Israel

first they came for the socialists, and i did not speak out – because i was not a socialist. then they came for the trade unionists, and i did not speak out – because i was not a trade unionist. then they came for the jews, and i did not speak out – because i was not a jew. then they came for me – and there was no one left to speak for me.

the solution is to stop destroying one country after another and massacring people one after another for the benefit of the zio regime. when people are slaughtered, it is all part of the zio plan. oded yinon. greater israel. ethnic cleansing of the whole region from the nile to the euphrates, the 2 rivers on the zio flag. israel is a rapacious parasite poisoning the whole region.

Attila

take it easy with tequila

annexation to Israel

that’s right, israel must protect christians and alawites as it has protected the druze. this would, of course, mean either the establishment of a new state or annexation to israel.

anon

pretext for yet more zio thieving. the solution is to dissolve the thieving zio regime. the idea of israhell protecting moslems is like foxes protecting a hen house. absurd, obscene distortion of reality. the problem is the genocidal zionist terror regime.

anon

why not create a “buffer zone” inside israhell to protect the palestinians from genocide?

Attila

so why israel don’t allowed palatine state

Slobodan

mr. vice president is smart and knows well that israel can also include and protect the alawites, and not just the druze, whom it already protects.

Make a new country

a new state should be established on the coast, otherwise we will be witnessing genocide. someone can’t just burn down forests, villages, and people for fun. therefore, it would only be right for the vice president to create a state and order israel to guard it. the state should contain alawites and catholics and be protected, not only by its own army but also by the army of israel.

a new state should certainly be established, one called palestine, to protect the palestinian people from the zionist genocide.

protected by an army that shoots unarmed children and women, and old men, and people for sport ? gtfoh with that propaganda.

that would be fantastic: russia, the usa and europe fighting shoulder to shoulder to defeat the criminal zealots who are now calling the shots in syria. if justified wars exist, then this would be one.

the “criminal zealots in syria” were created, armed, trained, directed and orchestrated by the little black hats and their goy whores in the first place. to do exactly what they are doing.

there wouldn’t have been any sectrian massacre if us,britain,turkey and france would not have been invading and attack syria and push for regime change of their choice also in afghanistan,libya,iraq and serbia.

… so until the u.$. and it’s client use something like banned cluster munitions, bio agents or “white phosphorous munitions” it’s still in the realm of “potential” after shooting men women and children in the head and burning them alive which doesn’t quite qualify to the standards of a massacre??? i hope s-f didn’t edit this read.

never seen so many western/israeli bots in my life. all this israel good/israel saves…what horse shit. israel is the reason behind all this. they want to see slaughter, they want more excuses to invade. trump is setting up excuse to intervene and give all syria to israel. next they will ‘save’ lebanon. they already saved the lebanese gov from hezbollah. then they will intervene in jordan to save it from it’s own people.

Moshe Dayan

yes, it’s orwellian newspeak. lie, and lie some more to accomplish more lying. a waste of life, labor and humanity.
this is not animal farm where all animals are equal but some are more equal than others.

that is just the bog standard zio/ jewsa play book. lie, cheat, steal, thieve, torture, rape, murder, then project your crimes on to your victims. the massacres in syria are basically just another zio false flag, like 9/11, like uss liberty, like the syrian gas hoaxes, like the lavon affair. the creation of the zio regime has poisoned the whole region for 70 years.

israel should saveturkish people too from erdogan 😂 …. may ask who’s gonna save israel?
