COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT
Sorry, but this stuff about Syrian civilian deaths owing to
Russian bombing is simply ignorant propaganda.
No one who is well read on this matter could possibly write
this.
I remind readers that the top story in The Independent today is America's stupidly brutal bombardment of an
M.S.F. hospital in Afghanistan. The bombing continued for thirty minutes after
staff notified others of what was happening. People from abroad heroically
giving their time and talents were slaughtered in the pointless attack.
Contrary to this writer’s assertions, there is not an ounce
of proof that the Russians have hit a single civilian.
But there is plenty of proof that the Russians have
seriously hit ISIS, which is their only purpose. The Russians keep releasing
video footage of what their planes achieved.
The Syrian government has confirmed this. Also all targeting
is done with agreement between Syrian and Russian officials, contrary to
America's imperious practices of bombing whomever where ever and whenever it
pleases, killing countless thousands along the way.
The Independent
should be ashamed to run such dishonest writing as this.
Putin does more in a couple of days to stop ISIS than the
U.S. has done in years.
And that's because the U.S. does not really want to stop
ISIS or al Qaeda or the other filthy terrorists who are doing America’s bidding
in attempting to destroy Syria.
The U.S. now will not be able to repeat in Syria its Libyan
dirty work in which a "no-fly zone” was converted into a murderous bombing
campaign.
That is why the United States, and its apologists like this
writer, is so upset. With a single rational stroke Putin has stopped their
murderous intent.
We should all remember the hideous Sarin gas attacks in
Syria and the effort to pin them on the government. That was not only a lie, it
was cynical and immoral beyond belief. That poison came either from the United
States or from one of its allies, perhaps Israel, to be used on innocent
civilians just to provide a cause for war. It just doesn’t come any lower than
that.
