The West's proxy war in Syria is going up in smoke and the propaganda machine has kicked into overdrive in full support of al-Qaeda terrorist 'rebels'. The
fake 'letter from Doctors in Aleppo' urges Obama to bomb Russian-Syrian forces in Syria while the media calls for a
ceasefire in support of terrorists.
The US proceeds to
massacre civilians in a Syrian hospital. No chorus of outrage will be heard, not from the Western media.
No wonder then that the same, subservient lackeys of empire are out in full force to defend Ukraine's attempted terror attacks in Crimea, and Poroshenko's onslaught in Donbass.
In case you missed it Ukraine has resorted to out-right in-your-face state-sponsored terrorism. After attempting to break through the Crimean border Ukrainian saboteurs got into a shoot-out with Russian forces, resulting in the death of a Russian soldier and a Russian FSB agent. If this wasn't bad enough, when their agents were caught Valery Kondratyuk, head of Ukraine's Main Directorate of Intelligence,
denied the encounter and instead blamed the Russian soldiers for 'getting drunk and accidentally shooting themselves'. However, Russian agents captured a Ukrainian involved in the attack. The captive Ridvov Suleymanov
said "he was recruited in Ukraine by the country's Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense".
Comment: The irony is likely lost on Washington that it was they who have set the precedent for such 'preemptive strikes'.
