The names and places change but the sad fact is that I am war fatigued and rather disillusioned and skeptical of Western governments justification of their desire to intervene in Syria. No one listens to the general public and there is no alternative political party to vote for, only war-mongering ones. The Assad regime is no longer fashionable and Britain is on the side of the rebels. Except the British government’s mouthpiece, the BBC, casually mentions towns that are captured by the rebels and the death toll of civilians at the hands of the rebels – 67 was the number of civilian deaths in ONE town in the last news report I listened to and they are meant to be the goodies!!
The old global political alliances seem to be reassuring us that nothing has changed in their mentality since the Cold War.
