Bitter In Aleppo Defeat, US And EU Seek To Further Demonize Russia
Zero Hedge ^ | 12-17-2016 | Tyler Durden

The perverse behavior by Washington and its European satraps is simply a case of sour grapes. Very sour grapes.

They have been proven spectacularly wrong about Syria. The liberation of Aleppo this week exposes the Western governments and media in their unrelenting falsehoods and systematic complicity in the Syrian war. This was never a pro-democracy uprising. It was a Western-backed criminal regime-change operation that was unleashed in March 2011, and which is now staring at ignominious defeat.

The blood of up to half a million people and many more maimed is on the hands of American and European governments.

It is no coincidence that Barack Obama this week invoked his putative presidential authority to double down on US intelligence claims that Russia hacked into the American elections to get Donald Trump into the White House. The stakes were raised to new unwieldy heights with White House claims that Russian President Vladimir Putin personally sanctioned the alleged hacking of Hillary Clinton’s emails. And Obama is now recklessly warning that his country will respond with cyber-warfare

Thank God for Trump. O'Fakename continues to provoke Russia when anyone but a fool would understand that strengthening ties with Putin's government is the best approach to confronting Chinese aggression.....What a dunce!

Lesson #1: Victors of wars write the history books.

Obama’s side lost.

I've never understood the Syria thing. The same people who harshly criticized Bush for trying to displace a brutal but mostly secular dictator (Saddam), then went about de-stabilizing another mostly secular Middle-Eastern strongman (Assad), siding with people very similar to those who made the Iraq War such a long, drawn-out ordeal: Islamic extremists.

I don't get it, unless they just wanted chaos for the sake of chaos, or wanted to support Islamic extremism.

Yeah and we were on the side of murderous ISIS, thanks to the radical leftists who sold out to the Saudis (Obama, Hillary).

Trump is on the way, and hopefully a more reasonable and constructive relationship with Russia. Hillary and Obama and their ilk were big supporters of the Soviet Union...now that they aren’t communists these asses think they are the devil. Leftists love only other radical leftists...everyone else is their enemy. I wish we could rid ourselves forever of these demonic Democrats.

The media are in a frenzy, because probably the got their talking points from the left, which we know from wikileaks is what they do. The left are against Russia, because obama losing in the proxy war, plus Putin stopped the homosexual propaganda.

Well, that’s it in a nutshell.

An anti-china card being played by Trump. But we’re in a much weaker position now.

let me help you in less than 300 words.
the largest voting block of the un is the oic.
its a muslim organization.
nobama was a full blown muslim. he framed is reality in Indonesia as a muslim.there is no American there.
the war in Europe is a war against Western European christians.
the guys who gave both civilization and modernity to the world

Saddam and moamarr are similar creatures, excepting Libya was the cork that contained africans and mid easterners.

once the cork is out, it’s hard to re stuff the evil genie.

Europe is lost.
From obamas perspective, he wanted a war between the two largest christian groups... Russia and America.

did I help?

That one of the most malicious lies of all time.

What is the lie, and why is it “malicious?”

Obama backed the rebels. They lost Aleppo. They have little opportunity to resume their fight after billions in US aid and equipment.

Facts have an annoying way of being factual.

But Lindsey Graham said the “Free Syrian Army” would save the day, oust Assad, and bring democracy to all.

Lunatics are running DC.

Time to institutionalize them.

He’s still in the catbird seat, perhaps crazy enough to start a war with Russia that could go nuclear, just to supposedly save America from Trump’s supposed racism.

Letting ANY of these animals into the USA is an extremely bad idea.

We’d be a lot weaker if we got embroiled in a war in Syria. The Iraq war added trillions to our debt, with nothing to show for it.

Its very true. We created, supplied, and ran political cover for the Syrian rebels and ISIS. In Libya we changed sides in the war and began helping Al Qeida. Its a well established fact.

Obama’s side lost.
