RNA - "The attack was preplanned but it will not overthrow the Syrian ruling system," Atwan wrote on Saturday.
Expressing regret that Saudi Arabia was the first country which welcomed the aggression, followed by Israel and Turkey, he said that the three states have a record of aggression against their neighbors.
Atwan warned that after the US aggression against Shayrat airbase in Syria, the Arab countries are put on the crater of a volcano, waiting for a big explosion, adding that victims of future wars in the region are Arabs and Muslims.
Dozens of people were killed in a chemical attack in the Syrian town of Khan Sheikhoun in the Northwestern province of Idlib on Tuesday.
The United States and its allies were quick to accuse the Syrian government forces of carrying out the attack. The Syrian army said, however, that “it has never used them (chemical weapons), anytime, anywhere, and will not do so in the future.”
The US warships deployed to the Mediterranean Sea carried out an airstrike on an army airbase near Homs by firing some 60 Tomahawk missiles at the Shayrat airfield Southeast of Homs early Friday.
