All countries that adopted a UN Security Council resolution against the Islamic State must be part of the fight against terrorism, Shaaban said... SYRIA must be part of the coalition against jihadists because the country is a key victim of terrorism... Terrorism didnt start in Syria today, it started four years ago when the uprising against Assad began, Buthaina Shaaban was quoted as saying... So it is crucial that its victim, which has been damaged by this scourge, be a key part of the fight against terrorism, she said. Her comments came as the United States assembles a coalition to tackle the Islamic State jihadist group, which is operating in Syria and Iraq... The coalition pointedly does not include Syria, and Washington has said it plans air strikes on Syrian territory but it will not work with the government in Damascus... Other Assad allies, including Russia, China and Iran, have also been left out of the coalition, to Syrias chagrin... https://uk.news.yahoo/syria-must-anti-jihadist-coalition-assad-aide-101555664.html
