    Video here of the bombs #Russia is using against civilians in #Aleppo including the bunker buster BETAB-500
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=679YYdsfTcU#

    Somehow Germany cannot use the words...Russia and bombing Aleppo in the same sentence.....

    German media talking about a "surprising bombing pause" in #Aleppo and concealing the #Russia|n involvement.

    @Charles_Lister
    *Very* important:

    #Russia has re-deployed Su-25 jets (designed for close air support) to #Syria.

    = Speaks volumes as to #Moscow’s intent.

    UN Envoy De Mistura makes reference to “bunker buster” bomb use on #Aleppo.

    #Russia has used its BETAB-500s in #Syria before, but vs. #ISIS

    #US Gen. Danford, CJCS: "Right now… for us to control all of the airspace in #Syria would require us to go to war against Syria and #Russia"

    BUT WAIT.....Kerry never said a single word about ALL of Syria...he stated..."for specific selected areas".....

    FSA groups release a joint statement about regime and Russian escalations in Syria.

    [/QUOTE]

    FSA on recent #Aleppo events:

    - Political process meaningless
    - #Russia can no longer be monitor
    - UNSC resolutions must be enforced, now

    US representative:
    Perhaps SC will ask who's guilty and say Russia to stop the bombardment of Aleppo


    #Aleppo residents: "It's impossible to recover the bodies. There are too many and the airstrikes don't stop."

    Russian Ambassador tells the Security Council the Syrian regime has displayed "enviable restraint" in response to events in #Syria.

    Near half million dead, some 12 million displaced and refugees- that's some rewrite of the meaning of "admirable restraint"

    More by Amb Power:

    - #Russia is not countering-terror, it’s practicing barbarity

    - One thing is certain, #Moscow does not tell the truth.


    British ambassador to UN: "In Short it is difficult to deny that Russia is partnering with the Syria regime to carry out war crimes

    Samantha Power

    @AmbassadorPower
    What #Russia is sponsoring and doing in #Aleppo is not counter-terrorism. It is barbarism.

    The agreement has been torn to shreds by the large-scale attack on eastern Aleppo, Senegal says.

    Samantha Power

    @AmbassadorPower
    Instead of pursuing peace, Russia & Assad make war, attacking aid workers, civilian families, and the first responders trying to save lives

    "It is none other than a massacre. That's what it means to drop bombs on the civilian population, to drop bombs on medical facilities."

    Russia and Syria have set up corridors to help people leave Aleppo, Vitaly Churkin lies without any shame.

    On UN convoy Churkin says Russian planes were over it for several minutes (as Americans told him) but bombing lasted for hours. Not us, gov.

    US/UK/Fr statements in Security Council surely signal that the 'trust Russia to stop Assad killing civilians' strategy is over. New phase.

    France's FM:Russia and Iran will be
    guilty of war crimes if they don't pressure #Bashar
    Assad to stop escalating violence.

    .@RussiaUN Churkin: Syrian Govt forces are being surrounded. Only firing when they are being fired upon. (!)

    Churkin on pressing Assad to stop crimes against humanity: "we don't have to order anybody to do anything unilaterally"

    Russia's Churkin blames #Russia & #Assad's siege on Aleppo on civilians within said siege, calling them all 'human shields.'

    Russia's Churkin tries to pin air strikes on Aleppo water supplies
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-37460849#
    on Nusra, like previous airstrikes

    Churkin admits more than 200,000 people in east aleppo, contrary to regime claims only 40,000. says they are prisoners of nusra.

    Churkin says videos of alleged Russian air strikes on eastern #Aleppo are indeed months old attacks by rebels on western #Aleppo

    Churkin spews a haphazard gaggle of semi-coherent cynicisms, half-truths & outright lies with intent to daze, deflect & bore folks to tears.

    Churkin:
    1. Dismissing the truth
    2. Distracting the truth
    3. Dismaying the truth
    4. Distorting the truth

    Russian 6 Ds propaganda hard at work.......

    Churkin says US leaked info on two Russian fighter jets over attacked UN aid convoy after Kerry said they wouldnt. seriously?

    Churkin: "Our planes were over the UN convoy only a few minutes...How could we have bombed it for hours? And what about France last month?

    Syrian and Russian military consistently raising Aleppo to the ground-just like they did in Grozny, Chechnya in 1994-95.

    Big Syria question: When will Obama/Kerry stop treating Putin as a partner in peace and start treating him as an accomplice in mass murder?

    BREAKING #Syria's @UN envoy says the regime's new #Aleppo offensive is 'meant to save lives'

    Hraytan near #Aleppo under incendiary cluster munition bombardment

    Syrian Arab Rep: rejects all accusations in use of prohibited weapons.

    Jaafari: "the Syrian government will never relinquish one inch of our territory" (That's also a message to Erdogan)

    Most air strikes on #Aleppo are by #Russia. Some by #Assad regime
    - No #ISIS fighters in targeted areas
    - All victims are civilians

    Syria just blamed victims for getting themselves killed. Assad is emboldened to kill civilians only b/c of Russia's willingness to do same.

    Samantha Power at UNSC on Russia's actions in Aleppo: What you can be sure Russia will not do is tell the truth

    S.Power on RUS bombing Aleppo: What you can be sure that Russia will not do today or any day is accept any responsibility for its actions


    SO exactly WHY has Kerry and Obama attempted time and again to treat Russia as a "partner that can be trusted" by continuously talking to them thus giving the world a perception that Russia is an equal super power worthy of being on the same table WHEN they are not.....

    Syria 600+ have been killed by Russia & Assad in the last week including 122 children & 94 women. Over half were killed in #Aleppo alone

    UN, US & Friends of #Syria have allowed Russia & Assad to breach every humanitarian law in existence w/ total impunity. They are complicit.

    Report
    124 civilians were killed by #AssadPutin on Sunday, incl. "dozens of" children.
    92 of the victims died in and around #Aleppo.
