Miles in stead of repeating what PJW and Prison Planet tell you to think, try thinking very simply and logically for yourself. You are I am assuming, surely brighter than PJW, but for some reason are very happy for him to do your thinking for you. But his is an entirely fallacious logic. Was America not on the brink of victory when it dropped bombs on Japan? Assad does not care one jot about his international image because he has Moscow covering his back. How can you turn a blind eye to the thousands killed by both sides and Assad torturing his opponents to death in prisons, just to pretend that Putin is one of the good guys. Neither Washington nor Moscow give a fuck about Syria, you watch them go to war over the bodies of thousands of more innocent Arab civilians or carve up the middle east between themselves in the name of stability.

All the Syrians I have met and also refugees and immigrants from across the region have said that both the east and west, Russia and America have always made things worse. The Sunni vs Shia over simplification is just that and is used to shut up the masses whilst the war machine lines the pockets of those feasting at the top tables.
