Thierry Meyssan – The incredible US ”peace plan” for Syria

The Syrian people have won two successive wars in four years. Yet the country does not yet know peace. Not only are Washington ”liberal hawks” doing everything in their power to prolong the crisis, but they have devised a plan to prepare a third war. Thierry Meyssan reveals here how they intend to use to their advantage the peace conference planned to be held in Moscow in late January 2015.
…
The ”peace” plan of the ”liberal hawks” consists therefore in achieving the original goals by dividing Syria in two: an area governed by Damascus and another by ”moderate rebels” (read: the Pentagon). The Republic is to have the capital and the Mediterranean coast; the Pentagon: the Syrian desert and gas reserves (that is to say the Daesh zone liberated by the bomber raids of General John Allen). According to their own records, ”liberal hawks” would leave only 30% of the territory to the Syrian People!

Brandon Turbeville – Obama to Assad: Stop Bombing ISIS and Let Us Bomb Civilians

.. on November 26, a new report from the United Nations addressed the issue of civilian deaths at the hand of the American airstrikes, citing 50 dead civilians since the start of the air campaign.
…
However, when the Syrian government – the only legitimate force operating in Syria and the only legitimate power to combat the Western-backed death squads – engages in airstrikes in the same exact location against ISIS (not civilians), the United States responds with condemnation, hysteria, and panicked claims of crimes against humanity and intentional targeting of civilians.
…
Syrian Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi responded by stating that the accusations are “an attempt by the US State Department to push the world to disregard terrorism crimes through directing incorrect accusations against the Syrian State in the interest of those terrorist organizations.” Al-Zoubi also pointed out that the “U.S. government was obtaining all of its information from “terrorist organizations” like the Islamic State group and Jabhat al-Nusra, al Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate.”
