Deir Ezzor: Why did US evacuate ISIL commanders

To answer that question, first ask yourself how Deir Ezzor in eastern Syria was occupied in January 2017.

As the Syrian Army began getting closer to Deir Ezzor, US started rapid evacuation of ISIL commanders.  According to Arabic news al-Hadath and others, at least six ISIL families were evacuated by US forces' heliborne operations.   Some were transported in air force planes.   Helicopters were employed to airlift ISIL commanders in remote areas of Deir Ezzor.   FNA via SOHR reported that Americans in Syria were rescuing the terrorist group's security monitoring agents whom the US intelligentsia had initially recruited within the terror group. Some of these agents may have requested for help.  'A friend in need is a friend indeed.'    It works both ways when it involves the U.S. and AlQaeda.

You may recall, ISIL had been pushing to take Deir Ezzor since January 2015 but it couldn't as Deir Ezzor city was well barricaded and fortified by the troops of the Syrian Arab Army.    During the fall of 2016, suddenly ISIL met with unexpected success.   Terrorists cut off Deir Ezzor airport which accommodated the weapons depot of the Syrian army.   Despite the interdiction by Syrian air power, ISIL ground attacks on Deir Ezzor continued unabated.   It was the outcome of a carefully planned 3-pronged US strategy across Iraq and Syria.  

(1) The Iraqi army began planning the retaking of Mosul city in October 2016.  US coalition insisted on keeping Mosul's western corridor open for ISIL fighters to flee.    Many fled Mosul across the Iraqi border to eastern Syria, into Deir Ezzor and Raqaa.   Most terrorist fighters went to Deir Ezzor to team up with their comrades who were already there. 

(2) A month earlier in September 2016, warplanes of US militants flew over Deir Ezzor airport bombing Syrian army positions for over an hour.   The unprovoked aggression killed 106 Syrian soldiers and wounded 110.    It was one of America's biggest war crimes in the Middle-East since 2003.   Investigation showed the attack was completely intentional, not a "mistake" as claimed by the attackers. 

(3) In January 2017 there was another unprovoked disastrous attack by the US. They bombed and destroyed the power station of Deir Ezzor city near Syria's major al-Omar oilfield, plunging the entire area in darkness.   Two weeks later ISIL overran Syrian army defenses in Deir Ezzor.    This tripartite framework chalked out by the US and implemented between September 2016 and January 2017 was the ONLY contributing factor that helped ISIL to occupy Deir Ezzor. 

Up until the present, trespassers of the US forces have never been held accountable for any of these horrendous war crimes and their blatant collaboration with one of AlQaeda's deadliest factions.

Deir Ezzor isn't the first war front where the US has engaged in assisting beleaguered AlQaeda terrorists.   When the Syrian army liberated Aleppo in December 2016 from the harrowing 3-year occupation by AlQaeda sub-groups, Obama regime's goodbye gift was to arrange a comfortable evacuation of the vanquished terrorists of Al-Nusra Front and Ahrar as-Sham in plush luxury buses.   In February and March of 2017, US did the same in ISIL-occupied Tal Afar, west of Mosul city in Iraq.   Tal Afar was already under siege by Hashd al-Shabi.   US intruders were aware that the Iraqi national and paramilitary forces could lead an assault any day.    Eyewitnesses among Iraqi officials and civilians reported seeing several senior ISIL commanders helped away to safety by Americans in uniform, and packages of food and light weapons frequently airdropped from US planes. 

Compare all of this with Mr. Trump's anti-ISIL rants that took him through his election campaign into the Oval Office.   Frivolous masses duped by the very leaders they idolize isn't unusual in modern political history.   But none have been taken for a ride by their elites as relentlessly as the unsuspecting Americans.
