Failure of Syria plot, latest defeat of enemies: IRGC cmdr.<\/p>\n
A senior Iranian commander says world powers suffered their latest defeat against the Resistance Front when their conspiracy to launch a military strike against Syria failed.\n<\/p>\n
œSo far, the enemies™ plot for military intervention in Syria has failed,” Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Mohammad-Ali Jafari said on Monday.\n<\/p>\n
The top general further added that almost all the schemes drawn up by the enemies against the Resistance Front have failed.\n<\/p>\n
œGiven the fact that enemies cannot overcome the Resistance Front in Syria, they definitely cannot take any action against the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the commander underlined.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The war rhetoric against Syria intensified after foreign-backed opposition forces accused the government of President Bashar al-Assad of launching a chemical attack on militant strongholds in the suburbs of Damascus on August 21. <\/p>\n
Damascus has vehemently denied the accusations, saying the attack was carried out by the militants themselves as a false-flag operation to provoke foreign military intervention.\n<\/p>\n
On September 10, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Muallem said Damascus is ready to implement a Russian proposal to place its chemical weapons arsenal under international control.\n<\/p>\n
The Russian government proposed the initiative during a meeting between Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Muallem in Moscow on September 9.\n<\/p>\n
In response, US President Barack Obama asked Congress to delay a vote on authorizing military action against Syria in order to give the Russian proposal a chance to play out.\n<\/p>\n
On September 3, the UN secretary general said that only the Security Council can authorize any use of force against Syria over the alleged chemical weapons attack.\n<\/p>\n
