Inhuman Interventionists

It seems that the US regime is so up against the wall regarding their regime change aspirations in Syria that they are stooping down to ever lower levels of nonsense and cheap scare tactics, thoroughly soaked through with rank hypocrisy.

Earlier this year, Saudi Arabia took over the presidency of the UN Human Rights Council. Recently, it has sponsored motions to charge Russia and Syria with ‘war crimes,’ and to launch an ‘independent’ investigation of ‘atrocities’ committed in Aleppo. It has even threatened Russia with suspension from the UN HRC over its actions in Syria.

Let’s take a look at the glaring double-standard and blatant dishonesty of this whole affair, point-by-point:

1. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a medieval religious autocracy without any semblance of, or even artificial pretense of democratic rule

2. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has been a state-sponsor of terrorism for a long time, and according to the US regime itself, financed the 9/11 highjackers. Recently, the US regime even passed a bill allowing the family members of 9/11 victims to sue the KSA for its connection to 9/11

3. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has been mercilessly bombing Yemen for a few years now. It has killed many civilians, created a humanitarian crisis, and destroyed infrastructure

4. Human rights organizations have ranked the KSA as one of the least free and repressive countries on earth

5. The US holds the undisputed record for invading countries, and killing civilians in the Mideast and beyond with with mass bombing. From Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Libya, and now Syria, the rotten US handiwork is self-evident

6. The US has bombed wedding parties, hospitals, civilian areas and journalists left and right over the years; always with a convenient excuse; followed up by an internal investigation where it always seems that its actions are deemed ‘legal,’ and so no one is punished in any meaningful way, and no changes in policy ever occur

7. By supporting known terrorist groups like Al Qaeda, Al Nusra and their allies in Syria, the US is a state-sponsor of terrorism. It aids and abets terrorists. This act alone puts the US on the spot as a serious human rights abuser and war criminal

8. The US and their vassals are operating in Syria illegally, without permission from the Syrian government, while Russia is

9. The US and its European vassals have since 2011 enacted extreme sanctions on Syria, which like in Iraq in the past and Iran more recently, resulted in much needed medicine and other life-saving supplies, equipment, and the means to buy them, being restricted or cut-off entirely. This has resulted in the unnecessary death and suffering of Syrian civilians, including many kids-who the US professes to care so much about

So how can the UN allow such a country as Saudi Arabia to even serve on the UN Human Rights council? This is akin to giving a group of serial killers a seat on the jury.

How can anyone not hold the US and its allies responsible for doing the same things they’re accusing other countries of doing?

It is clear that these accusations against Russia and Syria are politically-motived. They are a cynical, cruel joke, and an insult to the actual civilian victims of war, regardless of who killed them.

These accusations are meant to force Russia and Syria into abiding by US diktat in Syria. The US regime and their cohorts like the Saudis know that military confrontation with Russia is a no-no, so threatening sanctions, and leveling false and hypocritical accusations-without any evidence or proper context-is their only means of pressure. But this has not worked, and it won’t work.

It is also clear that Saudi Arabia isn’t coming up with this self-serving bullshit all by itself. Their US handlers are surely pulling their strings in this sorry saga.

Lately, the US has been utilizing their lap-dogs and vassals more to do things that the US doesn’t want to do because it is afraid of negative consequences. So when it wants to bomb, it tells Belgium to send an F-16 up in the air. When it wants to sanction, it tells the stupid and weak EU to do so. When it wants to get rid of a leader or a government somewhere, it gets its vassals to do so; who in turn use proxies, if they see that the mission is too risky.

Behind the actions of Saudi Arabia and the other two-bit rebel players in Syria and in Europe, we always have the US giving bad orders and advice.

The US and its allies don’t give a damn about human rights and civilian lives in Syria. If they did, they would stop sponsoring known terrorist groups who shell civilian areas and use car bombs to blow up markets and schools.

The US regime and its allies are not only lying about the situation in Syria, but are also manipulating the public to accept any and all US and allied victims of airstrikes and killing as unfortunate and unintended ‘collateral damage,’ and all victims (who are mostly terror group militants, BTW) of airstrikes and killing by Russia and Syria as deliberate ‘war crimes’ and ‘human rights abuses.’

The fact that Russia and Syria are actually fighting known terror groups while the US and its allies support those same groups is kept out of the daylight as much as possible by the pathetic western media.

The US and its European and Gulf Arab vassals and pawns have absolutely no right accusing any other country’s leadership and government of war crimes and human rights abuses. They lost that right long ago.

So if the US and their feckless European and Gulf Arab vassals want to find a war criminal to punish, they need to look in the mirror.
