(ANTIMEDIA Op-ed) — Following another alleged chemical weapons attack in Syria, U.S. government officials are continuing to ramp up their rhetoric against the Assad regime. Though President Trump campaigned on a platform of scaling back America’s penchant for nation-building — and previously scolded President Obama for attempting to intervene in Syria — his administration continues to insinuate […]
It looks like the US is preparing for a major attack on Syria, in supposed retaliation for alleged chemical weapons use in Douma.
But there is currently no evidence put forward that the Syrian government used chemical weapons – or that chemical weapons were used at all in Douma.
Logic and prior events reveal this is likely a false flag attack. The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has certainly had no time to get on the ground and conduct an investigation, nor have any other international bodies.
(ANTIMEDIA Op-ed) — If you’re feeling an unnerving sense of deja vu amid recent global developments, it’s because we have been here before — many times. The United States and its allies have been accusing the Syrian government of committing chemical weapons attacks in Syria almost since the conflict began in 2011. In August 2012, then-President Barack Obama […]
“The Russian forces will confront any US aggression on Syria, by intercepting the missiles and striking their launch pads,” said Moscow’s envoy to Lebanon Alexander Zasypkin in an interview with al-Manar TV.
He continued by saying, that “Russia will implement what its President [Vladimir Putin] announced on dealing with any American aggression on Syria by knocking down US missiles and targeting its launch centers.”
(ANTIMEDIA Op-ed) — Donald Trump once said he would look Syrian child refugees in the eye and tell them to “go home.” He also said he would not only bomb the shit out of ISIS’ oil fields but that he would also kill the families of ISIS members. Intentionally or not, Trump has massacred entire […]
Last week, US President Donald Trump proposed pulling out of Syria on the basis that the US has invested a lot of political capital and resources into operations in the Middle Eastern country without any recognizable benefit to America or Syrian citizens, but only massive death and destruction.
The US and its coalition, numbering the in dozens, have been involved in numerous military operations, including thousands of military personnel, in Syria on the premise of eradicating ISIS from the Middle Eastern country, albeit without the consent of the Syrian government of Bashar Assad or the UN Security Council.
ISIS has been militarily defeated in Syria largely through the combined efforts of Russian and Syrian forces, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced. No concerted military ISIS forces remain on the ground in the Middle Eastern country. Although a few dislocated bands of ISIS militants continue to exist and roam certain areas continues to remain a reality, they don’t constitute an orchestrated military or particular threat.
(ANTIMEDIA Op-ed) — The Syrian government and its allies are fast defeating ISIS and al-Qaeda out of Syria, Deutsche Welle (DW) reports. However, one wouldn’t know this was the case if they consumed only mainstream media’s one-sided coverage of the Syrian conflict. According to U.S. media, only Donald Trump receives credit for the disintegration of ISIS’ caliphate, and very few outlets actually […]
(ANTIMEDIA Op-ed) — For most empathetic humans, Syria represents everything that is wrong with humanity. This Thursday, the country’s “civil war” hit its seven-year anniversary, but the violence engulfing the country shows no signs of stopping. However, one glaring problem in the conflict is that Syria means different things to different people. For the U.S. government and its enthusiasts, […]
