Pemimpin
negeri Timur Tengah, yang telah berkuasa sejak 1999, memberi penilaian serantau
terus terang ini kepada pemimpin kongres, termasuk John McCain dan Paul Ryan,
dalam satu mesyuarat tertutup semasa lawatan beliau ke Amerika Syarikat pada
Januari. Beberapa minit dari taklimat itu kini telah diperolehi oleh Guardian
melalui kebocoran sanksi.
Dalam ayat2
yang paling substantif, diraja berkata pasukan khas Jordan yang beroperasi di
Libya telah tertanam dengan lebih besar kontinjen British SAS untuk membantu
mereka mengatasi halangan budaya, termasuk pemahaman "Jordan slang [yang]
adalah sama dengan gaul Libya."
‘Terrorist
flow to Europe is Turkish policy’ & ‘SAS in Libya’ – Jordanian king’s US
briefing leaked
The UK
has covertly deployed special forces in Libya, Israel is turning a blind eye to
Al-Nusra, and Turkey wants radical Islamists to prevail in the Middle East and
go to Europe, are the shocking insights King Abdullah of Jordan confidentially
shared with US lawmakers.
The
leader of the Middle Eastern state, who has been in power since 1999, gave this
frank regional assessment to congressional leaders, including John McCain and
Paul Ryan, in a closed-door meeting during his visit to the US back in January.
Minutes from the briefing have now been obtained by the Guardian via an
unsanctioned leak.
In the
most substantive revelation, the royal said that Jordanian special forces
operating in Libya had been embedded with a more sizeable British SAS
contingent to help them overcome cultural barriers, including understanding
“Jordanian slang [which] is similar to Libyan slang.”

Pejabat
Luar UK tidak mengulas mengenai tempat di mana elit SAS dan pasukan khas yang
lain sebagai satu perkara dasar.
Agensi
risikan keselamatan Stratfor sudah didakwa terbabit di UK awal bulan ini,
dengan mengatakan bahawa unit SAS telah "mengiringi pasukan MI6 untuk
bertemu dengan pegawai-pegawai Libya akan pembekalan senjata dan latihan untuk
tentera Syria dan militia terhadap Negara Islam (IS). Tentera udara British
pangkalan pesawat Sentinel di Cyprus untuk misi pengawasan sekitar [bandar Libya
ISIS terkawal] Sirte juga."

Walau
bagaimanapun, David Cameron enggan memberikan apa-apa maklumat mengenai ini
walaupun kepada jawatankuasa parlimen tertutup, berkata awal minggu ini bahawa
SAS sudah "tertakluk kepada undang-undang antarabangsa seperti orang lain
di negara kita tetapi saya tidak bercadang untuk mengubah perkiraan yang di
bawahnya orang-orang ini bekerja sangat berani. "
Secara
rasmi, Britain akan stesen 1,000 tentera untuk membantu penduduk tempatan
kereta api di Libya dan membantu kerajaannya mengoyang dalam masa terdekat,
tetapi setakat ini tiada satu pun yang kononnya telah dihantar ke negara ini,
yang telah dalam genggaman perang etnik dan mazhab sejak jatuhnya yang Muammar
Gaddafi pada tahun 2011.
Pejabat
Perdana Menteri enggan menjawab panggilan akhbar mengenai kebocoran terkini, kata
The Guardian.
Kenyataan
lain yang dibuat oleh Raja Abdullah yang berusia 54 tahun lebih suka memfitnah,
tetapi menunjukkan perpecahan yang mendalam antara Amerika Syarikat dan pakatan
Arab berkepala ditugaskan untuk menghapuskan negara Islam (IS) dan
mengembalikan kedaulatan undang-undang ke rantau ini.
Abdullah
berkata bahawa Presiden Turki Tayyip Recep Erdogan "percaya dalam larutan
Islam radikal kepada masalah di rantau ini." Beliau seterusnya berkata
bahawa "bahawa pengganas akan ke Eropah adalah sebahagian daripada dasar
Turki, dan Turki menyimpan semakin tamparan pada tangan, tetapi mereka mendapat
dari buku itu."
The UK
Foreign Office does not comment on the whereabouts of the elite SAS and other
special forces as a matter of policy.
The
security intelligence agency Stratfor had already alleged the UK’s involvement
earlier this month, saying that SAS units had been “escorting MI6 teams to meet
with Libyan officials about supplying weapons and training to the Syrian army
and to militias against the Islamic State. The British air force bases Sentinel
aircraft in Cyprus for surveillance missions around [ISIS-controlled Libyan
city of] Sirte as well.”
However,
David Cameron has refused to provide any information on this even to closed
parliamentary committees, saying earlier this week that the SAS is already
“subject to international law as everyone else is in our country but I do not
propose to change the arrangements under which these incredibly brave men
work.”
Officially,
Britain will station 1,000 troops to help train locals in Libya and aid its
teetering government in the near future, but so far none have supposedly been
sent to the country, which has been in the grip of an ethnic and sectarian war
since the toppling of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.
The
Prime Minister’s office has refused to answer press calls concerning the latest
leaks, The Guardian says.
Other
statements made by the 54-year-old King Abdullah are more gossipy, but
indicative of deep rifts between the US and Saudi-headed coalitions tasked with
eliminating Islamic State and restoring the rule of law to the region.
Abdullah
said that Turkish President Tayyip Recep Erdogan “believes in a radical Islamic
solution to the problems in the region.” He went on to say that “that
terrorists are going to Europe is part of Turkish policy, and Turkey keeps
getting a slap on the hand, but they get off the hook.”
Ayat2 itu datang hanya selepas pengumuman perjanjian bahawa Turki melanda dengan EU
awal bulan ini untuk membantu dalam menyelesaikan masalah pelarian sebagai
pertukaran selama berbilion-bilion euro.
The
revelation comes just after the announcement of a deal that Turkey struck with
the EU earlier this month to aid it in solving its refugee problem in exchange
for billions of euros.

Israel
dituduh "mencari cara yang lain" apabila ia datang kepada Al-Qaeda
berkaitan al-Nusra, yang membalut mengawal besar tanah di Syria termasuk
wilayahnya di sempadan Israel, kerana kumpulan ini adalah "pembangkang
kepada Hezbollah," kata Iran yang dibiayai Lubnan pertempuran militia
untuk Presiden Bashar Assad dalam konflik di Syria. Terdapat sebelum ini telah
tuduhan di media mendakwa bahawa Israel telah pun memberi rawatan perubatan
kepada pejuang al-Nusra sebelum menghantar mereka keluar di medan perang, dan
pautan komunikasi langsung telah ditubuhkan antara tentera Israel dan kumpulan
pengganas. Namun IDF sentiasa menafikan dakwaan ini.
Amaran
terbesar Raja Abdullah datang mengenai al-Shabaab, sebuah kumpulan jihad timur
Afrika dengan profil yang lebih rendah daripada ISIS, Boko Haram dan lain-lain,
tetapi yang telah mula "makan ke Libya."
Israel
is accused of “looking the other way” when it comes to Al-Qaeda-linked
al-Nusra, which controls large swathes of land in Syria including territory on
the Israeli border, because the group is “an opposition to Hezbollah,” the
Iranian-funded Lebanese militia fighting for President Bashar Assad in the
Syrian conflict. There have previously been accusations in the media claiming
that Israel was even giving medical treatment to al-Nusra fighters before
sending them back out on the battlefield, and that a direct communication link
had been established between the Israeli army and the terrorist group. The IDF
has always denied these allegations, however.
King
Abdullah’s biggest warning came regarding al-Shabaab, an east African jihadist
group with a lower profile than ISIS, Boko Haram and others, but which has
begun to “feed into Libya.”

"Jordan
sedang melihat al-Shabaab kerana tidak ada orang yang benar-benar melihat isu
ini, dan kita tidak boleh memisahkan isu ini, dan keperluan untuk melihat semua
titik panas di atas peta. Kami mempunyai penempatan askar dengan cepat yang
akan berdiri dengan British dan Kenya dan bersedia untuk pergi ke sempadan ke Somalia,
"katanya kepada kongres.
Kedutaan
Jordan di Amerika Syarikat dan UK enggan mengesahkan tuntutan, manakala satu
kongres mengaku Guardian bahawa taklimat itu tidak berlaku, tetapi tidak akan
mengesahkan tajuk perbincangan itu.
“Jordan
is looking at al-Shabaab because no one was really looking at the issue, and we
cannot separate this issue, and the need to look at all the hotspots in the
map. We have a rapid deployment force that will stand with the British and
Kenya and is ready to go over the border into Somalia,” he told congressmen.
The
Jordanian embassies in the US and UK have refused to verify the claims, while
one congressman has admitted to the Guardian that the briefing did happen, but
would not authenticate its talking points.
