The United States, its so-called coalition allies, and their terrorists supported by them are committing war crimes in Syria, not Russia and the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, according to Stephen Lendman, an American writer, journalist and political analyst.
Speaking at the State Department on Friday, US Secretary of State John Kerry accused Moscow and the Assad government of "terrorizing civilians," saying they must be investigated for "war crimes".
He said Moscow and Damascus are "hitting hospitals, and medical facilities, and children and women," in the northwestern city of Aleppo, adding they "owe the world more than an explanation."
Commenting on this, Lendman said, "Kerry, like he always does,
has made a baseless and inflammatory accusation against Russia and the Syrian government, basically accusing them of the
crimes America commits in Syria, along with ISIS [Daesh], al-Nusra and other terrorists America and its rogue allies support," adding America's rogue allies are "other NATO countries, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, you know the usual suspects, as they say."
The al-Nusra Front terrorist group recently changed its name to the Jabhat Fateh al-Sham.
Comment: Who are the War criminals in the air strikes against Syria?The Western media has gone into overdrive, accusing Russia of killing innocent civilians, demonizing president Putin while
ignoring the devastating impacts of Obama's fake "counterterrorism campaign" implying extensive and routine bombings of both Syria and Iraq over a period of more than two years. What the media has failed to investigate since the outset are US war crimes against the People of Syria and Iraq, which are amply confirmed by official US Department of Defense data. America is the number one "State Sponsor of Terrorism". The Islamic State is not only protected by the US and its allies, it is trained and financed by US-NATO, with the support of Israel and Washington's Persian Gulf allies.
Comment: This action was part of the Russian plan to the UN Security Council that was rejected so it seems Syria and Russia are moving ahead with the plan anyway.
