CARRYING OUT THE CRIMINAL AGENDA OF THE 0.00001% ACROSS THE GLOBE
We regret to throw cold water on the author’s enthusiastic embrace of the news about FM Lavrov’s latest initiative. We would very much would like to join him in celebrating the prospect of truth prevailing over a nightmarish regime of relentless deception.
Certainly, in a world in which truth mattered, and, more importantly, where it was fairly and swiftly distributed to every corner of the planet, Russia’s revelations and proofs would bury the American case and cripple Washington’s criminal activities in Syria and probably elsewhere. However, this is not a battle of communications so much based on truth as it is a war of propagandas, based on the relative size of each side’s cultural and mass communications global reach—an area in which Washington retains an enormous advantage.
In this context, the Russians, still following the exemplary route of diplomacy and apparently believing in the notion that truth eventually prevails, can present every possible piece of evidence and declaration about any incident or conflagration of global importance (and we are talking here about airtight proof), and it simply won’t matter, it won’t be reported by the huge lying apparatus of Western deception, AKA “the Western press,” or, “the Free Press.” In that manner, the most critical public to be swayed by the truth, the public in Western Europe and North America (and Japan), will be kept in its usual sanitized corral, within the “Bubble” of self-serving conventional wisdom, where only imperial lies are allowed to circulate.
Just as bad, the Russian statements may not only be ignored, but mocked and turned on their head by the platoons of full-time ideological hacks and overpaid pundits working the Western mainstream media. Fact is, such is the state of social and political putrefaction of “the West” that truth doesn’t matter at all. As far as Syria and the Middle East is concerned, this unpleasant reality signifies that the war will continue, and probably even expand, as US-sponsored jihadists will continue to sow death and destruction with the backing of the Gulf’s royal mafia and Turkey, which, posturing aside, is still very much in the game of facilitating passage and tactical support for anti-Assad takfiris. This, in addition to the still largely subterranean participation of NATO elite units, especially from the USA, Britain, France and possibly others. No, the Syrian conflict will have to grow bigger and crueler and far more dangerous, if that were possible, before it stops, and that means that short of a conclusive defeat on the ground, which is not likely unless China decides to commit its military or some sort of “volunteer corps” to the battlefield, the bleeding will continue.
Unfortunately for humanity, force, military reality, is the only coin that Washington accepts or understands. Appealing to the decency of US ruling circles is delusional. The American republic died a long time ago. Now the world must deal with a monstrous entity, a cynical, sociopathic and plutocratic Deep State steeped in the art of mass deception, wholesale violence and intimidation, dripping with practiced hypocrisy and firmly embedded, like the despicable creature in Alien, in the carcass of the former American nation. —PG
ALEX CHRISTOFOROU , THE DURANWe reported earlier today that Russia proved (with video footage and drone surveillance) that it could not have possibly attacked the UN humanitarian convoy in Aleppo.
Foreign Minister Lavrov, Russian Federation (L)
American “diplomats and spokespeople” conveniently rushed to blame Russia for the fire that engulfed a UN convoy, in an obvious effort to distract attention away from America’s attack on the Syrian army, that aided ISIS fighters over the weekend.
Russia’s hard proof, that is has fully disclosed for all to see, now means we will have to wait for America’s evidence that will refute Russia’s evidence.
We are sure the US does not have this evidence, because the entire narrative surrounding the UN convoy attack was either a false flag carried out by America, or a cover up by America to protect ISIS jihadists who set the convoy on fire.
Either way, the US is now being called out once again, for its sinister practices in Syria…and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is doing the calling out.
Lavrov said at a UN Security Council meeting that Moscow has provided all the data it has on the attack on a humanitarian convoy in Aleppo, and it is now time for a full and impartial investigation into the incident.
“There was another unacceptable provocation on September 19 – the shelling of a humanitarian convoy near Aleppo.”
Lavrov noted that at the same time as the UN convoy attack, militants (aka ISIS) advanced in the 1070 district of Aleppo.
“I am confident that such coincidences require serious analysis and an investigation.”
Not a coincidence, and Lavrov knows it. Russian diplomats are 100% confident in their evidence, other wise Lavrov would never have called on the Security Council to investigate. Samantha Power is probably feeling real dumb right about now, as America has some serious explainn to do.
Expect a lot of “no comments” and “we cannot share intelligence information” to spew out of Power’s mouth in response to Lavrov’s request.
Speaking on the delivery of humanitarian aid to Syria, Lavrov said that the Russia and US-backed plan included the creation of a demilitarized zone around the Castello Road near Aleppo. The minister added that while the Syrian government forces have started their withdrawal, the militants have not followed suit.
“The government forces began their withdrawal – in accordance with the Russia-American agreements – only to see that the opposition does not follow suit, and even begins to fire.”
On September 19, a humanitarian convoy consisting of 31 trucks was attacked while heading to Aleppo. According to the Red Cross, 20 civilians and one aid worker died as a result. Initial reports by the organization claimed the convoy had been targeted by an airstrike.
On Tuesday, the UN backtracked on its earlier claims that the convoy was hit by military planes.
“We are not in a position to determine whether these were in fact airstrikes. We are in a position to say that the convoy was attacked,” UN humanitarian spokesman Jens Laerke said.

The air strike came a day after an attack on an aid convoy in nearby Urum al-Kubra

An air strike on a medical facility near the Syrian city of Aleppo has killed five employees of an international aid agency, the group says, including nurses.
There have been heavy air raids in and around Aleppo as the United Nations prepares to discuss the failed Syrian ceasefire.
The attack came a day after an aid convoy was targeted in a nearby raid.
Twenty people were killed in that attack, which the US blames on Russia.
The assault, on Monday, destroyed 18 lorries and has been described as a possible war crime.
Russia has strongly denied involvement of its own or Syrian planes, and said the incident was caused by fire on the ground and not by an air strike.

The Paris-based Union of Medical Care and Relief Organizations (UOSSM) said Tuesday's strike on its facility near Aleppo appeared to be targeted.
At least nine rebel fighters were also killed, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group said.
The two successive attacks were "not a coincidence," UOSSM's Dr Zaydoun al Zoubi told the BBC.
"Somebody is trying to tell us humanitarian workers are not welcome in Syria, that we are a target, that we will be killed," he said.
He called for the truce to be restored.
Separately, a Syrian warplane has crashed north of Damascus, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says. The so-called Islamic State group said the plane had been bombing its positions but did not claim they shot it down.
Buried under rubble
It is unclear who carried out the attack on the medical centre in the rebel-held town of Khan Touman late on Tuesday night local time.
The Syrian Observatory said either Syrian or Russian warplanes were responsible, Reuters news agency reports.
The strike hit a medical triage point, and killed two ambulance drivers and two nurses who had arrived to transport wounded patients to a more advanced medical facility, UOSSM said in a statement (in French).
A fifth medic is thought to have died later of their wounds.
The triage centre was completely destroyed. More victims are feared buried under the rubble.
The convoy had been unloading aid at a warehouse when it was attacked
The rebels killed were from Jaish al-Fatah, an Islamist group not officially part of the Western-backed alliance but one that works alongside the Free Syrian Army, the BBC's James Longman in Beirut reports.

Blame game
Speaking about Monday's attack on the aid convoy, unnamed US officials said the strike was too sophisticated to have been carried out by the Syrian army.
Later, White House spokesman Ben Rhodes said: "There only could have been two entities responsible, either the Syrian regime or the Russian government.
"In any event, we hold the Russian government responsible for airstrikes in this space."
Russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman said the US government had "no facts" to support its claim.
"There are no craters and the exterior of the vehicles do not have the kind of damage consistent with blasts caused by bombs dropped from the air," a statement from the defence ministry said.
However photographs show at least one crater, in a warehouse.
The UN had earlier said it was "not in a position to determine whether these were in fact air strikes".
Pictures from Monday's attack site appears to show a crater, contradicting Russian claims that there are none

Monday's attack prompted the UN to suspend all aid convoys in Syria.
The president of the International Committee of the Red Cross, Peter Maurer, denounced it as a "flagrant violation of international humanitarian law" and said it could amount to a war crime.
It occurred hours after the Syrian military declared the end of a week-long truce agreed by the US and Russia.
The UN Security Council is due to discuss efforts to salvage the truce later on Wednesday.
ADDENDUM
British media supports American lies
Pretending independence, British media supports Washington's disinformation campaign against Syria, Russia and any "enemy" of the West. The Anglo-Americans are the main axis of global disinformation. Every day, hundreds of millions of minds are bombarded with professionally produced pseudo-news designed to sway public opinion in favor of US adventures around the world.
ITEM: The BBC has been peddling Washington-pleasing lies about the Syrian war for quite some time. In this one, datelined 28 April 2014, they are selling us the "barrel bombs" deception, entirely discredited (see Prof. Tim Anderson's reports on this topic) by impartial experts, but still circulated by the Western media.
