Explosions have rocked the Syrian city of Homs, the Syrian SANA news agency says. AFP cited the Homs governor, who said that at six people were killed and 37 injured in the blasts.
The suicide bomber blew himself up, and almost immediately a car bomb exploded, and then another explosive device detonated at the site of the previous attack. According to preliminary data, over 30 were killed, the police source told RIA Novosti.
The bombs reportedly detonated near the main square in the Al-Zahraa neighborhood, SANA news said.
Comment: With a number of such attacks occurring in regions of Syria recently liberated from the terrorists, it looks like the regime changers are reverting to the tactics used in the first stage of 'Operation Regime Change Syria', when 'classic' terror attacks were carried out with car bombs and other pre-planted explosives.
Observe as the Western media goes completely AWOL with respect to explaining why a 'popular rebel movement' feels the need to deliberately target its supposed supporters.
By the way, no 'suicide bombers' are used in such attacks. It's fairly clear that sophisticated, coordinated car-bombs and/or pre-placed bombs went off. In general, there is no such thing as 'Muslim suicide bombers', which is Western intel BS to slur Muslims and cover their own tracks.
is happening now. The US is keeping the coordinated terrorists out of Iraq and is uprooting the dug-in areas as is Syria with Russia doing the removal of the same, so where are the displaced people going to go?
They are returning to the country that wanted their removal in the first place, Turkey. For all the elaborate constructed scenarios, the only one that matters is that the Kurds were such a thorn in the side of Turkey, the government engineered this terrorist group to seek their own identity outside of Turkey by supporting the idea of their own country and supplying it with weapons and purchasing the stolen oil.
This is exactly what happens in all wars and is exactly what is at the base of all wars. Removing people from ethnic territory as to reduce their demands for recognition and to expand space for the ruling elite. It is ever the same.
This is exactly what the United Nations, NATO, and just about every other humanitarian group established is supposed to prevent. And it goes against the fundamental desires of the rulers of any country that has a fractious sect of the population. Recognition and representation for all sections of the population is the hardest sell for any country and it has traditionally been supported by bribery which works for about 20 years and then everything falls apart.
I would say that democracy--what is sharing power--and capitalism--the exploitation of resources by a select group--are incompatible. The hard sell of the first is merely the cover that enables the second. Ever demonstrated by history.
Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well... You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect...
In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.
