Washington’s
military attack on Syria is unambigiously a war crime. It occurred
without any UN authorization or even the fake cover of a “coalition
of the willing.” Washington’s attack on Syria occurred in advance
of an investigation of the alleged event that Washington is trying to
use as its justification. Indeed,
Washington’s story of Syrian use
of chemical weapons is totally implausible. All chemical weapons were
removed from Syria by Russia and turned over to the US and its
European allies. Syria has no such weapons and has no reason to use
them and every reason not to. Moreover, it is none of Washington’s
business whatsoever what weapons Syria uses against terrorist forces
seeking to overthrow the Syrian government.
Governments
in Europe, Canada, Australia, and Japan have not condemned this war
crime. Indeed, the UK Foreign Minister has declared the UK’s
support. Thus does the West reveal once again its hypocrisy.
As
Russia has made clear, the alleged chemical weapons attack has every
hallmark of a Washington orchestrated event in order to launch a US
military attack on Syria. As the Russian Defense Ministry explained,
the US air attack had to have been planned in advance of the alleged
chemical weapon event. The US air strike on Syria requires advanced
planning, but followed immediately the event used as the excuse:
In
other words, it was an orchestrated event.

Doctorow says that the idiot Americans drowning in their own hubris
have now crossed a Russian red line with consquences to follow.
Insane
Washington is driving the world to thermo-nuclear war. And where are
the protests?
From Gilbert Doktorow
Putin
has a cool mind and we may anticipate that the Russian response will
come at a time of his choosing and in a manner that is appropriate to
the seriousness of the U.S. offense
