My Take:
.
On Saturday, July 28, 2012, Russia said a
tragedy was imminent in Syria’s largest city, Aleppo. Now the way I see it, Russia
saying a tragedy is IMMINENT in Syria is like Saddam Hussein saying a tragedy
is imminent in northern Iraq against the Kurds, right before he gassed all
those thousands of poor innocent men, women and children to death.
.
Like Saddam Hussein, Russia too has no
clean hands here, in Syria, for they are supporting this ongoing mass murder by
their strong political support and the supplying of arms to this brutal
dictator Assad. Not to mention the fact that Russia, along with China, have vetoed
three UN Security Council Sanctions against the Syrian regime which could have helped
in putting a halt to some to most of all this senseless murder that has been
going on for well over a year and a half now.
