The Syrian government with Assad at its head is Iran’s most important regional ally and therefore Washington D.C., Israel, and the Pentagon all want regime change there. In order to make that happen they have regionalized a conflict where Lebanon is once again being thrown into disintegration, Israel is once again attacking Syria, Nato via Turkey is threatening to enter into the fight in gargantuan manner, Iraq continues to be turned into a complete carnage machine for its own people, and Syria itself is being turned from having been a former refuge for Iraqis fleeing US created mayhem into a place of utter death and misery. Amazingly, too!… many Leftists and liberal types in the US, divorced from all reality, are cheering all this along! We live in a bizarro world.
