Facing total economic meltdown at home US/UK, spear-heading NATO, have chosen the path of confrontation with the rest of the world, a path which will lead us to the brink of war with Russia and China

This article is important for the following revelation:
A statement issued on July 16 by the Free Syria Army joint command, and cited by AFP, called “pro-regime Palestinian leaders on Syrian soil…‘legitimate targets.’” Considering that cooperation between various PLO factions and Syria goes back decades, the call resembles a death note to numerous Palestinians in Syria. The Palestine Liberation Army, for once, has more or less served a symbolic role. It was barely involved in any military action, whether in or outside Syria. The heinous butchering of these men points to a decided attempt at punishing innocent Palestinians.
As I understand it Hamas did take sides, that of the “rebels”

“The flames are quickly approaching Yarmouk (as) someone is trying to drag the Palestinians into the fire,” commented Palestinian observer Rashad Abu Shawar (as cited in Israeli Jerusalem Post, July 20).

“The reality is not like it appears,” he said. “We’re not there yet.”
Yes, indeed, the reality is not as it seems on the BBC or in Socialist Worker. They’re not there and by the look it they’re not going to be. Pretending they’ve just learnt about Al Qaeda is a good way to start dissociating themselves from the whole sorry business. ITNT recommends that the Western elites and their myriad stooges take their cue from this.

The general who heads the Free Syrian Army says his forces are dangerously divided and underfunded, al Qaeda is gaining a foothold in the conflict, and a major win that could topple the regime, like seizing Aleppo, is still out of reach.

On issues pertaining to the Middle East, in Washington and many major European capitals, it is often impossible to tell where policies end and religious concerns begin. Accordingly, this has often resulted in deepening human suffering, perpetuating conflict, and threatening world peace and stability. Whether in Iraq or Sudan, Syria or Libya, destruction becomes an end game.

When big lies must be told, BBC is there. From Iraq to Afghanistan to Libya and now Syria, BBC has paved the way for Western disinformation meant to mange public perception around a war the public would otherwise never support or tolerate.

The Islamists control the SNC even though there is no democratic basis for that. The Turks and the Saudis are running things and the Americans might be behind them. We don’t want to end up swapping one corrupt dictatorship for another.”
After the defeat of the attempted coup by the “rebels” a clear shift is noticeable in the Guardian, an enthusiastic supporter of the SNC. They now cite divisions in the “rebel” ranks and even cite Damascus based National Co-ordination Bureau above, bringing our attention to oppositional groups which oppose the SNC and FSA.

La prensa imperialista exagera sobre combates en Alepo
Resistencia Libia
25th July, 20112
Sin decir ni una sola palabra sobre el aplastamiento del ataque mercenario contra Damasco, los medios de intoxicación bajo control del imperialismo están exagerando y magnificando noticias sobre combates en la segunda ciudad de Siria, Alepo, también llamada Al Chahbá.

Usted lo ha dicho. Francois Hollande zigzaguea sin rumbo fijo. O sea, él mismo no sabe cuál es su política, sólo está tratando de mantenerse en movimiento. Él se da cuenta de que la posición oficial sobre Siria es insostenible. Pero es incapaz de adoptar una posición diferente. Acepta que Francia continúe, como en la época de Sarkozy, caminando detrás de Estados Unidos. ¿Cómo podría él trazar una nueva política en esas condiciones? Tiene a su lado a los responsables del ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores, los diplomáticos franceses no dejan de repetirle que estamos cometiendo un error muy grave en Siria, que normalmente Francia y Siria deberían ser aliados, como era en el pasado.

En entrevista concedida a la radio La Voz de Rusia, y que hoy reproducimos en nuestras columnas, Thierry Meyssan pasa revista a los hechos más recientes de la operación de desestabilización contra Siria y analiza la posición del nuevo gobierno de Francia. En clara continuación de la era Juppé-Levy-Kouchner, el ministerio francés de Relaciones Exteriores sigue confundiendo la propaganda de guerra con la realidad. Francia, capaz de brillar cuando utiliza inteligentemente el equilibrio entre las grandes potencias, se priva de todo margen de maniobra al aferrarse a una posición preconcebida y poco inteligente.

Le dernier double véto de la Russie et de la Chine sur la question syrienne doit bien renseigner que le monde a bien changé dans les rapports de force. Un triple véto doublé sur la Syrie ne se décide pas sur l’humeur, mais sur des analyses géostratégiques objectives. Il s’agit d’un affrontement entre deux conceptions du monde : l’une unipolaire et l’autre multipolaire. Les rapports de force entre les différentes puissances constituant les éléments clés, décisifs.
