Revisiting Douma, 80 months on.

Douma National Hospital, May 15th 2018

Following the frankly unbelievable events of last week, that somehow allowed the ‘peaceful’ removal of Syria’s democratically elected President to be replaced with an unelected and unchosen mob of Salafist terrorists, Western media reporters who never set foot in Damascus for ten years were ready to swarm over the corpse of secular and socialist Syria… Continue reading Revisiting Douma, 80 months on.

Hama – a brief history.

On a visit to Syria in May 2010, one of the things that made the greatest impression on me was the sound of Hama’s ancient waterwheels. That is saying a lot, given it was after a visit to Palmyra – but there lies a connection, as these enormous wheels are actually Roman water pumps, lifting… Continue reading Hama – a brief history.

Framing Russia as a Terrorist State; SBS plays midwife.

The SBS news broadcast on August 10th covered two related events – an Israeli missile strike on a school beside a mosque in Gaza city which was sheltering hundreds of displaced people, and an alleged Russian strike on a Kostantinivka supermarket in Donetsk.

When Israel’s military spokesman Daniel Haggari appeared just after a rocket hit the sports-ground in Majdal Shams on the 27th of July, his outrage over the killing of innocent children was hard to take. As many observers commented, he had shown no such outrage or even regret over Israel’s killing of 21,000 children in Gaza.… Continue reading Creating the Pretext for War; a False Flag in the Golan.

Whose Missile?

Above is a comparison between the video shot of the missile that hit part of the Okhmatdyt children’s hospital in Kiev on Monday 8th July, with a view from Google Earth looking in the same direction – NORTH. This shows that the missile descended steeply towards its intended target following launch from somewhere WEST of… Continue reading Whose Missile?

ZELENSKY'S WARNING TO RUSSIA

V. Zelensky’s warning was delivered with an unusual venom and urgency, for a man already inclined to such dramatics, and doubtless persuaded many of his star-struck followers that Russia really was cooking up such a terrible and desperate scheme. Without apparently stopping to consider why Russia would seek to flood and devastate part of the… Continue reading Flooding the Battlefield
