“What opposition groups in Syria need most urgently is relief from Assad’s tank and artillery sieges in many cities that are still contested. Providing military assistance to the Free Syrian Army and other opposition groups is necessary, but as Assad continues to intensify his assault, that alone will not be sufficient to stop the slaughter and save innocent lives. The only realistic way to do so is with foreign airpower.”
Those are the words of one who is utterly ignorant of the realities in Syria.
Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Why should the west aid and abet the terrorists who are running roughshod over the Syrian countryside committing one atrocity after another?
Has Sen. Graham seen the torture videos that the FSA inflicts on people it doesn’t like? I would venture that the response to that question is “No”.
How many have seen the writing on the walls in FSA-held territory? You know stuff like “Alawites to the wall. Christians to the cross”. Allahu-akbar infidels.
The Syrian army is no knight in shinning armor either. I just saw a snuff video of Syrian soldiers cutting and stabbing two FSA prisoners to death and then crushing their skulls with cinder blocks.
This is the kind of war where the only winners are the tyrants who will replace the old tyrants with a different form of tyranny.
What about leaders of the Syrian National Council (SNC)? Those are the people who helped to start the revolution. Well, they are currently in exile because they are now the enemy of the FSA, AQ and al-Nusra.
Dennis Prager said “I cannot envision anything worse than the Assad family”
Dude you ain’t seen nothing yet. The bloodbath that is Syria has only just begun.
