Agreed, let's see.

This appears to be propaganda. they always use young children when they want to create a monster.

Re: the Fall of Syria - It is what it is. Hardly a win for CIA if one was using throat-slitters as the shock troops. Nor is depriving a country of life-blood (oil and food - so basically a decade long Siege) going to tranlate into a win. < I M O.

Let's hope the LOL-rebels announce an election (and Syrians all over the world must vote), and the population is left alone. I dread the potential purges of non-salafist minorities. As it is, the ISIS-derivatives have a problem with trust. And, they are likely to turn on their masters at any time.

Also, the Syrian government troops had a problem with corruption,(and that's one reason why Assad resigned, apparently) so in a way the Syrians wished it upon themselves, just to end the nonsense - i.e. the chopping the Gordian deadlock.

Alex Mercouris makes the point that if the 'problems' were that easy to fix, then Assad would prolly have done it by now. Mind you, he appeared to turn down offers of financial aid (+credit) from Russia and China. I wonder if that is because the Turks (NATO) were pressuring him over the refugees in their lands? IDK. Erdogan had it in his power to mutually help, yet Assad would not talk to him, and that would have rankled the narcissist in Erdogan. Pride goes before the fall, as they say. So many parties in one little piece of desert. It is a tragedy.

Re: propaganda on social media: Israeli bombing in the South, much of much-ness is made. Boasting even. But I feel that is a bit of background noise. One cannot bomb civilians into submission, in just a few days. That genocidal caper takes months, if not years. Oh wait.

Having watched Syria for years, I think this is setup.
