Says who
The Geneva Convention!
They have killed 96 children in Aleppo in the last 7 days alone, targeted hospitals and aid workers.
They have used cluster and barrel bombs and Chemical Weapons against civilians. Pretty clear cut War Crimes!
Says who ? They are all accusations ..... where is the proof?
An hour or so ago, I listened to a BC programme where they were talking to doctors from Aleppo. The presenter spilled out all the crap you do about '
deliberately' targeting medical facilities and personnel. Then to a live feed to a doctor in Aleppo. Great sympathy from the presenter and she asked "
How are you managing to cope?" The reply was that things were difficult because of the air raids ..... he then said that bombs were being dropped on buildings next to or close to, hospitals and the result was damage to the hospital. (
or words to that effect)
So all this crap about Putin/Assad deliberately targeting hospitals is a load of bo**ox!!!!!
The terrorists the coalition supports and arms have nestled themselves very close to or even next door to hospitals; they hold the population hostages as human shields and shoot any caught heading for the exit check points. Most of the aid in food and medicines that the Russians/Assad have managed to get into these terrorist held areas has been stolen by your terrorists and then sold at exorbitant prices to their hostages.
The reason Aleppo has not been taken before now, is because Russia really believed that the US would reign in their terrorists and there could be a political solution. The US has shown that is only possible on their terms, the Syrian people have no say ..... and above all the ASSAD MUST GO scenario dominates!.
They didn't (
or couldn't?) control their terrorists so the Russians have taken the only solution that is open to them. That is to attack your terrorists head on as hard as possible and reduce their will to fight. As you kept supplying them with arms, I can't see they had much of an option. I believe that Assad/Putin will be taking as much care as they can to avoid civilian casualties ...... but in any war it is always the civilians that suffer.
Assad has had exits from Aleppo open for weeks but only a trickle of civilians manage to get out. The Syrian people are being held hostage and used as human shields by
YOUR terrorists ..... if anyone is guilty of war crimes it is the US for supporting terrorists and arming them to turn an internal civil revolt into a foreign funded incursion, by mainly foreign mercenaries.
Who really is the war criminal here ?
