What we would get if Assad was removed would be a horror show of Sunni majority slaughtering Alawite and Christian minorities in the most hideous fashion as we have seen Isis beheading children, crucifying children burning people in cages etc. etc. This is far worse hands on cruelty.
If Assad fell, the cameras would quickly leave Syria so that American audiences would not see the atrocities that would follow. Just as the cameras left South Africa after apartheid ended. Now thousands of white farmers and their families have ben tortured to death in their homes and South Africa’s infrastructure and economy it falling apart as crime rises. But where is the Western media when you need them?
“If Assad fell, the cameras would quickly leave Syria so that American audiences would not see the atrocities that would follow.”
Cambodia is the classic example of that. Our side got defeated and millions were summarily executed. Did the Left EVER apologize for taking the wrong side? Have they ever, ever, apologized?
The New York Times STILL hasn’t apologized for running what may have been the fakest news of all time when Walter Duranty told Americans daily, in the 1930s, that Stalin’s Soviet Union was a PARADISE and with that THOUSANDS of Americans, many taking their families moved to start new lives there...only to perish a few years later when Stalin looked at them as spies and sent them off the gulags.
This is OUR ENEMY. It’s depressing that they’re able to reel-in so many conservatives over Syria, who, I guess trust the policies of Hillary/Obama more than the platform that Trump ran on...even though they have NOTHING to show for those policies regarding Iraq, Libya, and Egypt.
