"I assume the destruction of vast swathes of the world heritage site of Palmyra was part of the modernisation of Syria by Isis."
Why should you assume such a thing - what a stupid thing to say - who else has suggested it?
You and Bobad are the only ones supporting extreme terrorism in any way.
Even bobad's 'condemnation of Assad's behavior is incomplete - he neglects to mention the support from Britain to enable him to carry out such acta - including the sale of chemicals that may have enabled him to build up the stockpile of chemical weapons he uses against his people.
No, straw men and bluster aside - I gave you my account of what has happened in Syria - where is your alternative - "absolute rubbish" doesn't hack it.
I suggest you put up put up some real facts rather than the insults you objected to so strongly not sol long ago when you believed they were being aimed at you.
C'mon - give us something to work on - this is all evasive shit.
