Those calling for a “No-fly zone” do indeed want to stop the bombs falling on jihadist-held areas of Aleppo. But they want to replace this with NATO dropping a vastly greater weight of vastly more powerful weaponry on areas held by the Assad regime. They are relentless warmongering bastards, pretending to be motivated by humanitarian concern.Note: Mr. Murray goes on to pan the Assad regime as indecent as well, with which thought I do not agree.There are no easy answers in Syria. Without Russian and Syrian government air power, Syria might well already have fallen to disparate groups of murdering religious fanatics, who would then have redoubled their existing tendency to also kill each other. The pretence that there is any significant number of pro-western democratic rebels is ludicrous nonsense.[1]

These people are insane and corrupt.

So what if Assad is just as bad as ISIS et al? He is, as far as I know, the legitimate ruler/head of state. Fedgov has no legitimate business in Syria. Those who cry about Putin getting involved obviously have zero grasp of history.
ReplyDeleteGuess this means one more Peace Prize for the warmonger in chief?
