yep ... massive attempt to cover-up something is the true nature of what is taking place. Think perhaps the west has been caught in its own deception of lies by those leading the west toward this debacle of these leaders own doing.

Let the Syrians kill each other. Who in the hell cares. But as far as Russia may I remind them that be careful who you call friends and be careful mistaking the power of the US.
