This from the spokeswoman of the country that has used its veto in the UN Security Council 43 times to protect Israel from UNSC censure for its criminality over the decades - the last being its veto over Trump's move to recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital:
"After fresh air and rocket strikes by regime forces on Eastern Ghouta killed a further forty-six on Thursday, US State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert blamed Russia for not reeling in the regime of ally Bashar al-Assad. 'Without Russia backing Syria, the devastation and the deaths would certainly not be occurring,' Ms Nauert said. 'It is a good reminder that Russia bears a unique responsibility for what is taking place there. What are they doing to stop the devastation, the deaths, the murders that are taking place in Syria?' Ms Nauert blamed Moscow for again 'throwing a wrench' into the negotiations to block the ceasefire. As diplomats wrangled over a UN vote, people in Eastern Ghouta huddled in basements while government forces pounded the enclave with rockets and bombs, turning towns into fields of ruins and even hitting hospitals." (Russia lashed for UN deadlock, AFP, AP/The Australian, 24/2/18)
Enough already.

In a UN speech, Syria's Ambassador, Bashar Jaafari, urged the 'West' to stop spending billions of dollars on supporting, financing and arming terrorists, and allow the Syrian people to determine their own future.
”These governments should also recognize that the strategic schemes to divide Syria and to change the governing system in it by force, and to guarantee the continuity of terrorism and the illegal military presence on our territories, will not succeed."

Hi MERC
Not sure if my last attempt to post to this conversation worked - something about Captcha. Anyway here is the gist of it again. Just a few links.

The last website is replete with evidence of the fake news on Syria promulgated by the BBC.
