No compromise: UNSC split on Syria

November 29, 2011 10:06

Division among UN Security Council members on the situation in Syria grows deeper. While Moscow insists on a compromise to end the crisis without any ultimatums, the US and Germany reiterate their calls for the body to act on Damascus.

The scenes that I described some months ago, saying "Who's next Syria, Iran, or both! And it seems to be last alternative, namely both! The civil war in Syria, have at least in the western mediaoutlets, I talk about the so called killing of civilins, have infact never been verified by anyone with a camera, mobilephone-camera?! ! Theres always some obscure picture of somebody standing with a gun, in some totally unidentified place, with the sound of machinegun shooting in the background, but never any victim??? And once we were seeing some masked men, 10  to 20 of them with Syrian flags! In fact it's looking very staged! And the fleeing of western diplomats from Iran, and "mystical explotions at Iranian nuclear facilities and military compounds! It is surely something sinister going on! And once again, thank you to Russia and China and everybody in the UNSC that votes against any foreign intervention in either of those nations, beeing sanctions or absolutely no "NO FLY ZONE" As we all know too well that it would kill by the tens of thousand, or more, when the bombs start falling!! There is starting to get far to many signs of a bigger war looming, unless the crazy USNato warlords are beeing stopped some how!!! Why don't they realize that they can not survive a global conflict! They are plain EVIL! And seems to think that all other people living on this earth, is not worthy of living!

This is more insanity by the puppet masters of the US and Nutto leaders.  If there were any validity to their claims they would target Israel first for their atrocities , oppression and genocide over the last fifty years.This is just a regime change for control just as in Libya. Libya posed the greatest threat by encouraging Africa to go to a gold standard and resist the IMF loan debt enslavement program.   Every country that is independent will be a target .But the question is WHO is behind this driving force of war? Who behind the scenes is doing the agenda.Certainly Obama and Clinton are mere puppets being told what to do.. and as Hillary so stupidly commented to the CFR..."I m so thankful for your counsel , I wouldn't know what to do without you"...

Time is not liked 20 centuries.   Everything can change due to the environment.   It is better for western countries to change their foreign policies toward other third countries in this world.

Hmmm... Let's see which other countries have a known record of violence and undemocratic behaviour towards their citizens: Yemen, Saudi Arabia, modern Iraq, modern Afghanistan, Bahrain, Zimbabwe, DRC, India, Niger, South Africa, UK, US... the list goes on and on. Oh, but I see, beating back citizens in the west is for "national security" and for our "freedom" and "rights" whereas in Syria and Libya, it's called "let's go in and make a regime change". Where are the concerns over Bahran, Saudi Arabia and India? Oh, yes, those are the US backed countries aren't they?
What a sick, undemocratic, oil-greedy, fascist, dictatorial regime it is that we live under, without knowing due to "mainstream media", here in the west.

Turkey also tortures its own people, Kurds, or they don't count Kurds as their own peopele? As one and half million of Albanians got another state, Kosovo, border to border with their native state Albania, why couldn't Kurd s have their own state also? If I'm not wrong, there are at least 25 millions of Kurds in compact territory.

Th ere is no use of such  United Nations any more so this harmful organization, a pupet in the hands of world's biggest bully, should be dismissed. The states, all but one- the USA,  just spend their money in vain.

Syria is the first line of defence against western imperialism in Middle east.Any invasion by NATO or the presence of Turkish uniforms in Syria,will trigger the war.Of course it goes without sayin,that Persian Gulf and Sues canal will be the no go area for any NATO member countries`milirary or civilian ship.p eriod.

   &n bsp;   Once upon a time, a manisfestations ( demostrations ) against war in all the major capital cities in the world would have been enough to deter war mongers and war criminals! Now countries make war in order to make profits for the war-profiteering&nbs p;mongols and arms manufacturers! Leaders can thus ignore 'feeble' protesters and go ahead forlon to war! The vicious devastation of Iraq is a typical crystal clear example!  &nbs p;    The point is: War criminals and war mongers always protect themselves with diplomatic immunity! There's no court of law that would ever succesfully pro secute them! Armed with this fact, they'll always get away with their heinous crimes! Who then would speak on behalf of the innocent whose lives have been destroyed in these unnecessary and illigal wars, if we all say, it's none of our business?  &nb sp;    ;  We just witnessed the viciousness of the conflict in Libya. The dust in Iraq is yet to settle! We just cannot let Syria suffer the same dismemberment as Iraq! The rebels must spare their country the fate of Libya! They should sit down and talk!

   &n bsp;   Should we look elsewhere, when the same war mongers who plotted and destroyed Iraq be allowed to do the same to Syria or even worse to Iran and again profit by doing so? Iraq's still suffering the aftershocks of its 'shock and awe'. Who the hell would speak on behalf of the babies caught in these illigal wars!

What is amazing , is how a country can easily toppled :Terrorists mercenaries which the goal is to kill a lot of citizen and soldiers and the media who use this killing to say that the regime oppress and kill the people.

I also noticed that some people use propaganda tactics : they are infiltrating among huge crowd and yelling during filming themself , to make it looks like the whole crowd is demonstrating

"Turkish Foreign Minister said on Tuesday that the regime that tortures its own people has no chance of survival." Perhaps he has forgotten, Turkey's regime track record for human rights for (just let's start from 1970's) 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s; among them, indefinite imprisonment, torture, disappearance of students, intellectuals, Armenians activists, journalists (remember machine gunning of twenty opposing students in the student’s bus station). If Turkey survived happily without imposing sanctions and ultimatum on its governments of coup d'état fascist generals, dual citizen face-lifting lady prime minister, and pseudo-Islamist government with 200% inflation rates, then definitely Syria also can.
