So I'm watching Fox News, yes, Fox News, and I'm hearing all of this blather about the Russian/Trump/T=Rex connection but strangely no commentary on the Obama/Iran connection in relation to Aleppo genocide. Yes, it was coming from one of the FNC Democrats but tell me, for whatever news you watch or read, who has mentioned the Obama/Iran (Iran as in Iran deal buddy and Assad ally) ties in relation to the genocide when they talk about Trump/Russia and the genocide?
Do you know why it's not being mentioned Laura? Because the Obama administration and the Iranian government doesn't have a friendly relationship... I thought this was common knowledge..
I'm sure I'll be torn to shreds for this, but the emergence of Aleppo coverage this past week has felt extremely propagandized to me. Tweets from alleged seven year old Syrians asking "why won't anybody help us" etc. are being heavily canvassed across social media and CNN.
I'm not doubting the extent of the trauma that Syrians are encountering, but this latest rash of coverage feels calculated and intended to tug on heart strings and perhaps affect political change on immigration. I recall a similar cycle taking place last year, too.
Yes! Who tweets from that area when they think they are about to be slaughtered? I have read many of them and it totally feels like nothing but propaganda. Several "good bye" tweets only to be followed by more tweets, every last one of them talking about "the children", and again, the very idea that someone is going to pick up their phone and start tweeting about it when they claim to be in fear for their life ending in mere minutes to an hour?
The problem I have with Syria is that if Assad was such a horrible creature, how come the majority of the Country supported him and is on his side. Why does he still have a very capable Military, thats winning the fights with the so called "Rebels?" Maybe Assad would not be our pick for a President or Leader of a Nation, but the majority of Syrians got along fine with him and where eating regularly, until the Wast deported Democracy again, like in Iraq .
Think about it. The Syrian Government is in charge of that Country. We actually have no say, and should not be supporting anyone. If a group of armed Rebels took over one of our Cities, and called for Obama to step down, what do you think his reaction would be? Same as Assad's reaction. Send in the Troops.
Seems Assad is winning and Aleppo has all but fallen. Another Obama and Hillary FAIL .
