Paphitis:[
It will be over when there is a comprehensive peace settlement Miltiades. Without one, it will not be over at all, and Coalition will remain.
That will be when Putin and Trump have had a serious conversation. They decision
WILL be as previously posted on here ....... the US Coalition will carry on with their advance in Iraq and Assad and Putin will sort out Syria.... all of it. You always disregard the fact that in International Law
YOU and your coalition, and the Kurds and the Turks have invaded a sovereign state. The settlement will have to be some sort of compromise but at the end of the day who rules Syria will be down to the Srian people
as Putin has said from day one! No change there then?
Btw, Australia has already received assurances that America's positions on Syria will remain the same as Obama.
I don't know who gave you such assurances but it is 180 at odds with what Trump is saying, so I would not place too much store on such assurances. Instead of getting an Aboriginal ‘
reading of the runes’ maybe you would get more sense from Global Research, Information Clearing House, Black Listed News and, of course Sputnik International ?
BTW: Although not covering the coalitions crimes in Syria .....
YET, The ICC is looking into charging US and British Forces with war crimes! I doubt your ‘
source’ will pass this on to you but it is as valid, if not more so, than your rabid accusations against Assad and Putin, because
it is an accusation by the ICC. ...... not Field Marshall Paphitis! It also included alleged ‘
crimes’ by UK Armed Forces
'War crimes of torture': ICC prosecutor signals charges against US Armed Forces, CIAThe International Criminal Court's preliminary probe into the activities of the US armed forces and the CIA in Afghanistan between 2003 and 2004 shows there to be a “reasonable basis to believe that, in the course of interrogating these detainees […] members of the US armed forces and the US Central Intelligence Agency resorted to techniques amounting to the commission of the war crimes of torture, cruel treatment, outrages upon personal dignity, and rape,”
Chief Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda said, as cited by AFP.She discovered that most of the alleged abuses took place between 2003 and 2004, but did not cease in the following years. She also pointed out that the abuses appear to have been “approved interrogation techniques,” utilized deliberately in “an attempt to extract ‘actionable intelligence’ from detainees,” as the report states.
Should formal charges be filed following Bensouda’s report, Washington may be found in violation of several ‘war crimes’ provisions of the ICC Rome Statute. However, as the United States has not ratified the Rome Statute, observers believe it is unlikely that its soldiers in foreign missions will be prosecuted. “These alleged crimes were not the abuses of a few isolated individuals.”
