Let’s all OD on the breaking “humanitarian disaster” bullshit.

Sorry for the bad language but there is no better word in the English language to express that particular combo of lie, stupidity, manipulation, and contempt. The mother's milk of contemporary leftist, RINO, Dem, neocon, Never Trumper, Deep State, and MSM utterance let it be said. (E.g., "comprehensive immigration reform," "living Constitution," "nation of immigrants," "responsibility to protect," "regime change," etc.)

Here’s a list of Guardian articles[1] playing the “humanitarian crisis” garbage like a mighty Wurlitzer.

  • “The human price of inaction and action in Syria, Turkey and Libya.” (Picture of kids preparing for chemical attack.)
  • ”UN head calls for Idlib to be spared 'humanitarian nightmare.'” (Picture of FSA "rebels" causing said nightmare.)
  • ”The Guardian view on Idlib: nowhere left to go.” (I.e., civilians trapped.)
  • ”UK must take lead to protect the people of Idlib.” (Picture of kids. U.K. role in starting and prolonging this war unmentioned.)
  • ”I have seen the bloodied bodies of Syria’s children. Tell me nothing can be done[.] Samer Attar.” (Photo of surgeons operating. Stop the killing!)
  • ”Thousands of Syrians displaced as threat of Idlib attack grows. UN warns Idlib civilians could be facing worst humanitarian disaster this century.” (Hopefully, thousands of civilians still trapped to satisfy Assad blood lust. Same picture of kids.)
  • ”MPs demand inquiry into consequences of UK's inaction in Syria. Foreign affairs committee report comes as Russia readies assault on rebel-held Idlib.” (You should see what the U.S. did to rebel-held Raqqah. Picture of kids and old lady.)
  • ”As Putin incites more atrocities in Syria, Europe is exposed as craven.” (He’s Russian. What can you expect?)
  • ”Turkey warns Russia an attack on Idlib will turn it into ‘lake of blood’[.] Erdoğan pleads with Putin not to launch offensive on Syrian opposition enclave.” (And the winner of “Most Lurid Language” award is . . . .)
  • ”Syria: Idlib braces for assault as Russia and Iran dismiss ceasefire calls.” (The killing of innocents must continue. Picture of really cute kids.)
  • ”America last: Trump has brought US to irrelevance in Syria.” (Let me guess. Because of inaction?)
  • ”Millions of us are trapped in Idlib, facing death. The world must save us[.] Anonymous.” (Picture of little boy looking anxious with comforting adult.)
  • ” 'Lots of evidence' Syria preparing chemical weapons in Idlib, says US envoy[.] Special adviser Jim Jeffrey warns any offensive by Russia or Syria would create huge numbers of refugees.” (Yuuge numbers. Picture of urban destruction.)
Assad the "Gas Killing Animal" readies another murderous, irrational assault on the people of Syria. So far as I know there’s a slight jihadi problem in his country that’s the political equivalent of gangrene of the foot, but you’d never know that from reading the absurdities issuing from the mouths of the Guardian, Mike Pompeo, and Nikki Haley, among others.
