Doomsday Rising? Syria Has ‘Descended Into Hell,’ Warns of Global Chaos WW3 Should U.S. Push Airstrike

Syria has "descended into hell," Archbishop Mario Zenari, Apostolic Nuncio in Syria, described on Monday the situation in the country. Meanwhile, Faisal Mikdad, Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister, warned of terrible and more global chaos should the U.S. send troops or launch airstrikes to control the recent Aug. 21 savage chemical weapons attack in the Syrian capital.

Reports were rife that U.S. President Obama as well as other U.S. nation allies are gearing to launch a military strike against Syria to denounce its heavy use of chemical weapons.

But Mr Mikdad assured Syria will fight back against any individual or collective measures from the international community, hinting of doomsday and rising "chaos in the entire world."

"There will be no international military intervention," Mr Mikdad told AP as reported by CBS News. "If individual countries want to pursue aggressive and adventurous policies, the natural answer ... would be that Syria, which has been fighting against terrorism for almost three years, will also defend itself against any international attack."

"They will bear the responsibility for such an attack, which will result in killing thousands of innocent people, as happened in Libya, and committing criminal actions against a sovereign country," Mr Mikdad added. "Syria will not be an easy target."

Archbishop Zenari cautioned international leaders to be careful in finding the true perpetrators behind the chemical assault and "must do everything possible to prevent massacres like this."

Ever since the conflict began over 2 years ago, it has been the ordinary Syrians who have been paying the price of such monstrosity. Based on estimates from the United Nations, over 100,000 people died in the crisis.

"When the sounds of war made themselves felt here in Damascus, I had the impression that Syria was starting its descent into hell," Archbishop Zenari said. "Today, after the latest facts, we are wondering whether we have reached the bottom of this abyss."

On Aug. 21, state security forces were alleged to have launched a chemical weapons attack on the eastern suburbs of the capital, Damascus. Hundreds of people died, mostly women and children. Syrian President Bashar Assad denied such activity. He likewise stressed any U.S.-manipulated counter-attack in Syria would end in failure like Vietnam.

"Failure awaits the United States as in all previous wars it has unleashed, starting with Vietnam and up to the present day," he told the Izvestia daily as reported by The Jerusalem Post, commenting on reports that Washington plans to strike or invade Syria.

Mr Mikdad strongly believed that such doomsday scenario that the chemical weapons attack elicited on Aug. 21 did not come from the Syrian army nor was it supplied by anyone currently part of Mr Assad's government.

Mr Assad is "100 percent confident" about this and noted that the Syrian government "will never use them against its own people, if it has them."

"If such a thing has happened, then it is the armed groups," he said.
