Why not just admit that THIS time, the USA/UK were not allowed to start another mission of destruction in an already besieged area, the 'Yanks' got a boot in the arse this time and only the 'Brainwashed' will believe that it was all a 'Master Plan' instigated by 'Cameron'
Now come on mate, time to adjust the controls of your 'Game', a good 'Boot in the Arse' might wake 'em up a bit. :lol
You say I am part of what you call "the masses". It is an age old tact from conspiracy theorists or those that wish to jump on your bandwagon. A bit like a broken record.
Unfortunately, what you think does not make it reality. If the US wanted to attack the Assad regime they would do it. Evidence exists and the Russians know it too because they were shown as were many countries and it is conclusive. The military buildup made it very clear to Russia that military strikes were imminent unless Assad surrenders his arsenal. Russia had to do something to save their ally, and they did. They convinced Assad to comply and lay low. Russia even threatened Syria by stating they will withdraw support if Assad cheats the UN inspection process.
There is very little to gain by destroying the Assad regime. The US will not support an Islamist takeover of Syria. The current status quo is more desirable for now.
There are no plans, of attacking Syria or Iran at least under the Obama Administration.
At the moment, Syria has declared its arsenal to the UN and even stated that it will cost about a Billion to dispose of the weapons. Quite likely, they will even be given some assistance.
I don't suscribe to the mass media or to the countless theories expressed on this forum. I have common sense and can work things out for myself by looking at the facts.
You my friend don't even comprehend what I have written. Maybe you have exposed yourself as someone that just seems to think politics is a sport where your team just aint the US rather than just look at all the known facts from a variety of media outlets including nany alternative sources in the name of balance.
At the moment, everything is ok. Everyone is quite pleased and most countries including those the supported military action are sincerely hoping that it may continue.
Russia and Syria were clearly checkmated. A country does not just choose to surrender a CW arsenal just like that.
Facts please! Just the facts!
