【新唐人2013年08月30日讯】叙利亚境内发生的化学武器攻击攻击无辜平民,引发全球挞伐,美国、法国和英国开始协商规划对叙利亚实施军事打击,以防止叙利亚政府再次用化学武器伤害叙利亚民众。对此,中共喉舌连续发文,警告美国及其盟友,不要以叙利亚境内发生的化学武器攻击作为借口,支持叙利亚政权变更。文章还声称,叙利亚境内的化学武器攻击也可能由反对派策划。对此,本台记者采访了去年在叙利亚反对派战场生活过的,见证了这场战争的中国人,了解到了跟中共报导不一样的事实。我们一起来看看。
叙利亚境内发生化学武器攻击后,英、法、美等西方民主国家认为,化学武器攻击触犯了军事行动的红线,除了采取军事行动,已别无选择。美国国防部长哈格尔表示,部署在地中海的美军已准备就绪,只等总统欧巴马下令就可以攻击叙利亚。
28号,中共党报《人民日报》发表评论文章警告说,武装干预叙利亚可能会给叙利亚内战火上浇油,并阻挠联合国试图解决叙利亚冲突。
《新华社》还发文指称,所谓的化学武器袭击很可能是叙利亚反对派制造的“有预谋的挑衅”。
英国首相府发言人宣布,英国首相卡梅伦和美国总统欧巴马确定,所有信息都证实叙利亚发生了化学武器攻击,伊朗总统以及叙利亚政权也都承认了此事。
叙战归来的雕塑家陈维明:“我去过的地方都没有发现化学武器,而且他们使用的都是常规武器,一般的这种轻武器,重武器也就是一些炮,我看也是比较落后的炮,还有一些机枪,一般的坦克,火箭筒这类比较轻的武器,没有非常大的,根本没有化学武器。”
华裔雕塑家陈维明去年在叙利亚反对派战营里生活和战斗了3个月,并在好几个城市包括反对派总部生活过。据陈维明了解,叙利亚阿萨德政权只要发现反对派占领了一个城市,就会轰炸整座城市。陈维明说,因为反对派针对的是政府,他们对百姓是爱护的,他们不需要采用杀伤面很广的化学武器。
据陈维明介绍,因为中共一直不支持联合国制裁叙利亚独裁政权,叙利亚老百姓对中国人极其反感。在陈维明去叙利亚之前,也有一群自称去帮助反对派的中国人,他们去过反对派的一个秘密基地,这批中国人离开后,那个基地立即遭到轰炸,造成反对派对中国人特别警惕。
陈维明:“他们一开始是非常的警惕,很多人不知道我的来历,警惕的怀疑的都会有,还有人问我是不是CIA(中情局特务)来的,这些城市炸掉要多少炸弹,怀疑我,如果知道你不是一个什么间谍的话,他们非常的友好。”
中共长期反对西方武装干预叙利亚。 2011年以来,中共和俄罗斯连续两次否决了联合国安理会对叙利亚总统阿萨德施加压力的决议案。
美国国会研究部门2011年发表的一份报告指出,俄罗斯和中国是叙利亚常规武器的主要供应国。叙利亚的常规武器主要来自俄罗斯。但2003年至2010年期间,中国(共)为阿萨德政权提供了大约3亿美元的武器。
英国和法国星期三表示,将向联合国安理会提交一项决议草案,谴责叙利亚当局使用化武,并要求“授权使用必要手段”来保护叙利亚平民。
据媒体报导,美国已锁定了叙利亚约50个军事据点。这种有限的攻击可以确保美国不会长期卷入战事。白宫强调,美国对叙利亚的行动,将不涉及政权更替,而是针对上周发生的化武攻击事件。
根据联合国宪章第七章:“对于和平之威胁、破坏及侵略行为,国际社会得采取必要之空海陆军行动,以维持或恢复国际和平及安全。”

Chinese Eyewitness Testimony from Syria Suggests Opposition Group Did Not Use Chemical Weapons
Allegations over chemical weapons attacks on innocent
civilians in Syria has aroused international condemnation.
The US, France and Britain are in discussion
over military action, to prevent the Syrian
government from using chemical weapons.
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) state controlled
media has published a series of articles on this topic.
The articles suggest the US and their collaborators are using
the incident as an excuse to support a Syrian uprising.
The articles claim that the chemical weapons attacks
were likely to have come from opposition groups.
NTD reporters interviewed Chinese national who
worked closely with the opposition group last year.
His witness account is very different
from what the CCP media claims.
Use of chemical weapons in the current Syrian conflict is
said to have crossed a red line for international conventions.
This has been condemned by the US,
UK, France and other Western countries.
These countries feel that military action needs to take place,
and are awaiting results from the current UN inspections
Chuck Hagel, Secretary of the US Defense, said
that the US military are waiting in Mediterranean.
They are on stand by for the go-ahead
from President Obama to begin strikes.
On August 28, the CCP state media,
People’s Daily published an article.
The article claimed military intervention in Syria will fuel civil
war, and prevent the UN from resolving the conflict in Syria.
Xinhua News also claimed that it is likely the
chemical attacks were from opposition groups.
A spokeswoman for the UK Prime Minister David Cameron
said he and US President Obama had confirmed that
all the information proved chemical weapon
attacks took place.
The Iranian President and the Syria
regime also admitted the incident.
Chen Weiming, is a sculptor, who
has recently returned from Syria:
“I didn’t see chemical weapon where
I went. They use conventional arms.
These were general light weapons, as
well as medium weapons and cannons.
I think the weapons they used are out of date.
There are some machine guns and tanks.
Light weapons like bazookas. There are
no heavy weapons, nor chemical weapons."
Chen Weiming has been supporting the opposition
group and fought with them for three months last year.
He has been to several cities and stayed
in the headquarters of the opposition group.
Chen said that as soon as the Assad regime
found the city was occupied by opposition
groups, he ordered bombing of the entire city.
Chen suggest that it is the Assad regime
that the opposition group is against.
He believes the opposition group would
not use chemical weapons against civilians.
Chen said that as the CCP has never supported
UN sanctions against the Syrian dictatorship,
Syrian civilians don’t like Chinese people.
Before Chen arrived in Syria, a team of Chinese people
went to Syria and claimed they supported opposition groups.
They went to a secret compound for the opposition.
After those Chinese people left, the
compound was bombed immediately.
Thus, the opposition groups are
cautious about Chinese people.
Chen Weiming: “They were very alert and suspicious
about me, as many people didn’t know my background.
Some Syrian’s asked if I worked for CIA, and
how many bombs will they need to blow up a city.
They suspected me. Once they knew I
was not a spy, they became very friendly."
China has been against western military intervention in Syria.
Since 2011, China and Russia twice vetoed UN Security
Counci resolutions pressuring Syrian President Assad.
The US Congressional Research Department
said in a 2011 report that Russia and China
are some of the main arm suppliers for Syria.
Syria’s conventional weapons are mainly provided by Russia.
From 2003 to 2010, China provided
weapons to Syria worth $300 Million.
The UK and France stated on August 28, that they
will put forward a proposal to the UN Security Council.
This condemns the Syrian regime using chemical weapons.
They requested “authorizing all necessary
measures to protect civilians" in Syria.
Media reported that the US has listed initial
target, which include fewer than 50 sites.
These limited attacks aim to ensure the US
won’t become involved in a long-term war.
The White House stressed that the goal of the
operation against Syria is “not about regime change."
it is intended to help “deter and degrade"
chemical weapon attacks that happened.
The Charter of the UN Chapter VII states:
“Action with respect to threats to the peace,
breaches of the peace and acts of aggression,
it may take such action by air, sea, or land forces
as may be necessary to maintain or
restore international peace and security."
