Russians in Syria 'act like Nazis in Guernica'
Former international development secretary Andrew Mitchell has condemned Russia for its part in the siege of Aleppo.
Tuesday 11 October 2016
Russia is behaving in Syria as the Nazis did during the bombing of Guernica in Spain in 1937, according to Tory MP Andrew Mitchell.
Mr Mitchell accused Moscow of "shredding the international rules-based system of law", ahead of an urgent Commons debate on the humanitarian situation in Aleppo.
The former international development secretary compared the Kremlin's role in the conflict to that of the Nazis during the Spanish Civil War over Russia's part in the siege of the eastern city of Aleppo, and more widely across Syria.

From his wikispooks page:
On Tuesday 11 October 2016, Andrew Mitchell was granted an emergency 3-hour debate in the House of Commons to discuss the situation in Syria amid allegations by the Western-backed NGO White Helmets that Russian military jets and Syrian helicopters are bombarding civilians in eastern Aleppo.
From the wikispooks White Helmets page:
Posing as an impartial rescue force, the White Helmets are transparently auxiliaries serving exclusively side-by-side with armed militants including US State Department, UN, and EU designated foreign terrorist organisations. Their primary function is not “rescuing” anyone, but to manage a public relations campaign aimed at swaying public and political opinion, leveraging “humanitarian” sympathy worldwide.

‘Posturing’ Russians to send aircraft carrier and fleet along the English Channel

Russians are in Syria because of the failures of Obama and his administration. Putin KNOWS he is dealing with a pacifist and moral coward who hates his own country.
The fact is, Putin is a murdered and dictator who is shoring up a brutal fascist, Assad, in Syria so his military can have naval and air bases in Syria and, along with Iranian allies in Syria, Iraq and Yemen, control the politics and oil flow in the Middle East. Even the rankest fool can realize that.
It will allow him to raise the price of fossil fuel, make him and Russia rich, intimidate Europe, and weaken it further by flooding it with refugees it can’t support or absorb while insulting and degrading America and the few allies we have left in the world.
It has NOTHING to do with fighting ISIS. Obama and Assad and Putin helped CREATE ISIS.
I agree that something must be done about the Russians regarding Wikileaks and their attempted election manipulation- I suggest we send them a really nice fruit basket and a card.
Syria is about competing schemes for natgas pipelines. Assad refused to go with the version favored by Saudi, Israel, Qatar, and Turkey.
Obama launched his war in Syria so that HE, along with his Qatar and Saudi allies could control the flow of oil and natural gas in the Middle East, and isolate Europe economically from Russia.
Obama’s White House created and armed ISIS: the most unspeakable child-rapists, torturers and murderers that humanity has ever created. Which is saying a lot.
He has deployed them and their ideological sister Al-Queda to wage bloody insurrection in Iraq, Syria and Yemen.
And now Obama and his cronies are looking for any excuse to begin a full-scale war before the election.
Putin has merely defended an allied nation - and his own interests in that nation - against the ravening genocidal madness of this White House.
May God save America.
Indeed. I am no
fan of
Russia or the Houthis, but a French analyst noted the hypocrisy of the false humanitarian outrage at Allepo and yet saying nothing of Saudis killing 200 on a strike of a funeral.
This is nervously too close to the Kossovo BS wag the dog flap to me
Seems to ignore that when one nation meddles in an area for its own goals, other nations may decide to try to do the same to attain their goals....Obama has meddled more than any other president I can remember - and none of it for our National Security.
The first step was in May 2013 when the Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted 15-3 to arm the rebels(tow anti tank weapons) .
Senate panel delivers bipartisan rebuke to Obama with vote to arm Syrian rebels
So the CIA would begin vetting, training and arming the rebels.
Then after ISIS came on the scene, Congress would pass legislation to deal with that, but that legislation contained a sizable increase in the money allocated to arm the rebels and it transferred the duty from CIA to the military.
Gradually, these weapons turned the tide and the rebels began to gain the upper hand against the Syrian army.
Because of this, Putin had to send in his military(aircraft and missiles) to help Assad defeat the rebels.
But, Putin has been there over a year and he still hasn't captured Aleppo so he has had to ratchet down a couple more notches
If Obama was trying to control oil production in the Middle East, he did a damn poor job of it. As a matter of fsct, Putin is allied with Obama’s new little buddies, Iran, in promoting his agenda.
Putin is a thug KGB killer and an Obama - Hillary pal, nit an ISIS fighter.

“Bozorosa” is a spin off from “Operation Barbarosa”, the Nazi invasion of Russia in 1941, which failed. Some historians believe that had Germany concentrated on defeating England instead of the East, the outcome of WWII in Europe would have taken much longer, (No 8th Air Force, or D-Day staging from the UK).
Rochester, (Bozo) is exhibiting the same sort of childlike nativity with regard to Russia’s capabilities, (and resolve).
