WHAT a pathetic, transparent facade the UK and France have presented to the international community with their puerile arguments to escalate the intervention in the Syrian conflict.
As with Libya, the US needs its minions to present the arguments for all-out war so as to appear reluctant to commit the atrocities that it will soon inflict with such joy.
The US set a chemical weapons deadline as an excuse for all-out war whenever they decided it would suit their Imperialist or Zionist agenda, it is all but a step toward the isolation and eventual obliteration of Iran.
As monopoly capitalism destroys the planet for humanity, such savagery is measured with indifference or enthusiasm by the US and all of its subdued, servile collaborators in this Government, its opposition and throughout the ridiculously misnamed democracies of the western world.
