    As was the case in Bosnia, Kosovo, Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq, the key motivations underpinning the foreign policy objectives of Washington and its allies in relation to Syria, have nothing to do with protecting civilians, nor with democracy. Rather, their aim is to create sectarian divisions, ethnic strife and thus political instability as the prelude to initiating regime change in the country. As the former French Foreign Minister Roland Dumas confirmed in 2013, Britain had been planning the war on Syria “two years before the Arab spring” that was to involve the organizing of an invasion of rebels into the country. “This operation goes way back. It was prepared, preconceived and planned”, he said.

    Throughout the day the UK mainstream media has been ramping-up the anti-Assad and anti-Putin propaganda while the government engaged in an "emergency debate" in parliament. The false media narrative is that Aleppo is a single entity as opposed to a tale of two cities in which the vast majority of Syrian civilians (7m) have escaped from the terrorist controlled areas of the east to the relative safety of the Assad-controlled west. This latter narrative, counters the Wests propaganda that the evil Assad is 'barrel bombing' is own people. Once again, the warmongering politicians are banging the drums for war with the eventual aim of illegal regime.

    But, of course, it was planned.

    The Plan was always to eliminate all potential Russian allies in the Black Sea/Mediterranean Region before the assault on Iran.

    Maybe the U.S. didn't like the genocide committed by the regime?

    I'm amazed that otherwise intelligent people cannot see through the fog of propaganda. It's like Iraq never happened. Maybe it's because their bull(*)(*)(*)(*) is more sophisticated this time. I mean $100m donated to the White Helmet terrorist-enablers is a lot of money so their propaganda is far more polished this time around.

    Then the US should stop funding and arming the rebel groups.

    War is EXTREMELY profitable for the super rich. Always has been. The more people killed the more money they pocket. It is that simple.

    I think our "Texas Republican" has gotten the actors, countries, and leaders involved in gassing the Kurds mixed up again!

    Yeah, some people need to be pacified. For ever, preferably.

    Oh man … full Anti West Propaganda full of pure claims, things taken out of depending context and ridiculous try to give this bloody dictator Assad a white shirt of innocence now. Used sources are as usual the BS things like Sputnik, Voltairenet and other sort of this Anti West media in majority … Very lame…

    No … of course did the West BS in Syria over years since Arab Spring as well particularly Turkey does, but it is really ridiculous who the Anti West faction is blaming BS around as here again!

    Interesting is for example how much more silence the critics on Erdogan are suddenly after he and Putin are starting to talk together directly and with Putins meeting with Erdogan at least.
    Suddenly the wave of hate speech against Erdogan from this side is much calmer if existing at all. Remembering the shot down SU-24 plane?
    This shows how one sided and pure propaganda BS this all is what is coming from your side too … and not only from your always attacked western media!

    This has absolutely nothing to do with genocide. Our ruling robber barons do not care about human life, except for their own. We already have the evidence that we are an oligarchy, that foreign policy is always in the interests of the 21st century robber barons, and their sole interest involved making more money, to increase their tremendous wealth.

    For anyone to think that our ruling elites cares about the lives of brown people, or white people for that matter, shows just how disconnected from reality some people are. If we cared about other human life, we would not be, as a nation, guilty of the deaths of a million people in the middle east. So please, this elementary school view of reality is so exasperating to an aware intellect.

    If you understand what drives our foreign policy, towards the middle east, towards south America, towards Russia, only then do our actions start to make sense, and present coherence instead of incoherence. We are not, our ruling elites are not this stupid, but rather clever even if they are fallible.

    You want to know why we do what we do? Use that very wise axiom, FOLLOW THE MONEY. WHO, is getting richer from our foreign policy? Money, profits has always driven foreign policy, but nothing to the degree that it does today. Our actions, or foreign policy does not benefit American citizens, at all. But someone benefits. Guess who?

    Genocide ? Not even the mainstream media propaganda machine claimed Assad was involved in Genocide. (at least not prior to he civil war breaking out).

    The Genocide was committed by the rebel opposition who are Islamist extremists (united in their desire to get rid of secularism and replace it with strict sharia/theocracy)

    It was arming these Islamist's (Al Qaeda/Al Nusra, Islamic Front and others Islamist groups) that led to the worst humanitarian crisis of the decade (over 300,000 civilians dead) the refuge crisis, and the modern day incarnation of ISIS.

    The holy Jihad/ rebel opposition (with the support of major nation states - US, Saud, Turkey and others) quickly took over most of Syria. It was from these groups that the Islamic State (IS) - ISIS movement was created and from then they moved into Iraq.

    So it was not that the US did not like Genocide (and to be honest the US has a bit of a reputation of supporting genocide) ... the US was one of the main parties supporting the terrorist groups that committed the genocide (much of it against Christians).

    Actually the US was always centered on Russia, while Iran is mostly Israel's concern. I just read I believe in Voltairenet, that the Yeltsin cabinet after the break down of the Soviet Union, was formed by the National Endowment for Democracy, which is really a hand of the CIA.

    Once Putin came in, who just happened to love his country more than his pocket, and hindered the US corporations from taking over Russia's wealth and turning it into a third world country, he became enemy number one. Everything that is going on has to be looked on in that context. Putin's Russia is the greatest threat to American hegemony and control of the world. This is why he is so feared.

    Assad is the protector of all the minorities in Syria, so who is he committing genocide against ...other than the terrorists? Well maybe he doesn't like them blocking aid to the people in East Aleppo, and sending missiles to kill children in the government protected area. Do you blame him? Hundreds are killed every week, and five children were killed yesterday... but of course that is never mentioned since it doesn't fall within our political agenda.

    This sick boy in the video was taken from a hospital, and you can see the transfusion tubes. What is not mentioned is that he is a Christian, and that's why he was taken and that's why he was beheaded by the moderates that we support.
