    Today the regime tried, and failed, to seize a major east Aleppo water plant

    The plant, controlled by rebels but staffed by gov workers, supplies water to both sides of the city in an informal arrangement

    And let's all just ignore that Assad's Syria accepted US money to run CIA black-site torture dungeons.

    MORE evidence the Obama WH "Iran Deal" has failed and failed badly........

    The ballistic missile embargo was intended to last 8 years after the JCPOA. Instead, it has crumbled in less than 1.

    THIS is literally the underestimating of the pull of JFS (former AQ JaN) by the Obama WH among the Syrian population SINCE the WEST does nothing to defend the Syrian Sunni population from genocide and deliberate air strikes and starvation.....

    JFS with handicapped fighter: "There is no physical disability, only disability of the heart and soul. Where are the healthy people?"

    HAS any SWJ reader/commenter ever noticed in the last two years just how close the US "left and right" actively support the Putin and Assad regimes?

    I rarely use this term but this is a disgusting piece of journalism that actually is being politically used by both the US "left and right" in the defense of the genocidal killing of Syrian Sunni's ....and actually retweeted by a US Professor who claims to thoroughly understand Syria or at least claims he understands.....

    "Inside the Shadowy PR Firm That’s Lobbying for Regime Change in Syria" by @MaxBlumenthal @alternet
    (2016)

    Amazing just how certain so called journalists seem to change their minds with time.....from 2013.....
    Max Bluemental back in 2013: not 1 person I spoke to in Zaatari who did not demand intervention ASAP

    Man how Russian cash for articles tends to change one's own opinions these days.....

    ANOTHER Russian lie......

    Russia claimed it curtailed #Assad regime’s use of barrel bombs, but really the numbers remain similar today. #SyriaWatch
    In one year from 2015 to 2016..only 113 fewer barrel bombs were dropped and we are not to the end of 2016......

    AM starting to detect some signs of "panic" in the Russian propaganda machine since the US broke off all talks....AS long as the US was "talking" the Russian media was selling this as a joint operation to destroy IS and JaN...BUT now they can no longer "sell that narrative".....as it is now Russia alone that must sink or swim ......

    BREAKING: ‘Deal with the devil’: US ‘ready to ally with terror’ to overthrow Assad – Russia Foreign Ministry


    https://www.rt.com/news/361502-syria...il-terrorists/

    Moscow has accused Washington of sabotaging the Syria ceasefire deal, saying that the US will be responsible for any new terror attacks in Syria, as by taking no action against Al-Nusra terrorists it shows it is ready “to make a deal with the devil.”

    Washington “has never exerted any real pressure on Jabhat Al-Nusra, done nothing for delineation to succeed and taken no action against its militants,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement Monday, following the US decision to suspend cooperation on Syria.

    Besides failing to deliver on its part of the deal, the US were hampering Moscow’s efforts to stop the terrorists, the Russian Foreign Ministry said, calling Washington’s decision a “reflection” of the Obama administration’s inability to meet the key condition for Russia-US cooperation on the Syrian peace process.

    The way the situation has been unraveling in Syria in the past few weeks has made Moscow doubt what Washington’s real intentions are, according to the ministry.

    “We are becoming more convinced that in a pursuit of a much desired regime change in Damascus, Washington is ready to ‘make a deal with the devil’,” the Foreign Ministry said. For the sake of ousting Syrian President Bashar Assad, the US appears to be ready to “forge an alliance with hardened terrorists, dreaming of turning back the course of history.”

    While Jabhat Al-Nusra, a designated terrorist organization, has been known as an Al-Qaeda affiliate for many years, Washington “is not in a hurry to separate US-oriented anti-government forces from it,” Moscow points out. On the contrary, even though Al-Nusra has never been a part of any peace deal, Washington “covers it with the shield of opposition groups which formally confirmed their participation in the cessation of hostilities.”

    Meanwhile, Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN, Vitaly Churkin, who on Monday assumed the post of the President of the UN Security Council, expressed his concerns over the halt in Russia-US cooperation in Syria.
    At the same time, he insisted that the current setback in Syria will not lead to another “Cold War” between Moscow and Washington.
    “I think you are dramatizing the nature of our disagreements with the US,” Churkin said, replying to a reporter at a press conference, adding that there’s still a chance to revive the cooperation.
    “I hope there will not be a new Cold War,” he added.

    For now, the main objective in Syria for Russia is to thwart Al-Nusra’s latest offensive in Aleppo, which has seen increasing number of terrorist attacks in the wake of the ceasefire’s collapse.

    "In the process of the past few weeks, after the September 9 arrangements were reached, we have seen numerous violations by Nusra and others cooperating with Nusra of the cessation of hostilities regime”, Churkin said, adding that about 1.5 million people are currently stand the risk of being besieged by its militants south of Aleppo.

    “We must make sure that Nusra’s influence is not going to continue to spread,” he stressed, describing the situation in Aleppo as “extremely dramatic.”

    On a broader scale, Russia’s long-term aim in the region is to “throw the terrorists out” of Iraq and Syria, as it is the only way to secure the lives of civilians, living there in constant danger from extremists.

    To mitigate the impact of one of the terrorists’ most powerful weapons, propaganda, Russia has submitted a draft resolution to the UN Security Council designed “to counter terrorist ideology and the ideology of violent extremism,” Churkin said.
    NOTE:....the Russians are now setting the following narrative into play for their info warfare...if we fail in out attempts to destroy IS and JaN...."it is because the US stabbed us in the back".....NOT because our own military completely failed.
