Thread Name: BS: Homs horror (Syria, 2012)
Subject: RE: BS: Homs horror (Syria, 2012)
The only person who has lied and deliberately misrepresented things on this thread so far has been you Christmas. You have done so repeatedly.

An unsubstantiated newspaper article becomes unassailable fact - it isn't

A comment made on a television current events panel show becomes stated Government Policy - it isn't

As for the UN Security Council:

The following Permanent Members want to get something done to stop the bloodshed in Syria - United States of America; the United Kingdom; France.

The following Permanent Members wish to see the status quo maintained and supported - Russia; the People's Republic of China.

Fact is now that there is no "Peace Plan" no-one can "impose" peace in Syria and end the bloodshed. The can has been kicked far too far down the road, the anti-Assad Free Syrian Council will not enter into any dialogue that offers Assad and the Ba'athists even the remotest chance of holding on to power in the country. Assad and his allies (Russia, China, Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas) will not enter into any dialogue that demands that Assad steps aside. That brings the situation to an impasse - so they battle it out and, like Libya's Gaddafi, Assad will fall, either to the "rebels" or to the Syrian Ba'ath Party.
