Alwaght- A famous British journalist slammed the US ambassador to the United Nations after she condemned Syrian government for liberating Aleppo from militants describing it as massacre of civilians in while forgetting major Muslim killings by US allies.
In an article in British Independent daily, Robert Frisk wrote “when Samantha {Power, US Ambassador} talked about 'barbarism against civilians in Aleppo', I remembered climbing over the dead Palestinian civilians massacred at the Sabra and Chatila refugee camps in Beirut in 1982, slaughtered by Israel’s Lebanese militia friends while the Israeli army – Washington’s most powerful ally in the Middle East – watched. But Samantha didn’t mention them. Not enough dead Palestinians, perhaps? Only 1,700 killed, including women and children. Halabja was up to 5,000 dead. But Sabra and Chatila certainly 'creeped me out' at the time”.
Being disappointed that the foreign-backed militants were defeated in Aleppo, the west and its allies Aleppo city from militant and terrorist groups, western powers resorted to their media to paint the victory against al-Nusra Front terrorists as "massacre of civilians" and "death of revolution".
During a recent UNSC session, while referring to such unfounded claims, Power addressed Syrian, Russian, and Iranian representative in the session and said “are you truly incapable of shame? Is there literally nothing that can shame you? Is there no act of barbarism against civilians, no execution of a child that gets under your skin?"
Referring to the claims, Frisk writes “I recalled the monstrous American invasion of Iraq … and I can tell you that Iraq’s half million dead 'creeped me out' rather a lot, not to mention the torture and murders in the CIA’s interrogation centres in Afghanistan as well as in Iraq. It also 'creeped me out' to learn that the US president used to send innocent prisoners off to be interrogated in... Assad’s Syria! Yes, they were sent by Washington to be questioned in what Samantha now calls Syria’s 'Gulags'."
Funny old world. Samantha, God bless her, didn’t mention Gaza, where quite a lot of Palestinian children have been killed by the Israelis. Nor Yemen, where America’s head-chopping allies are now dissing the Shiites and have killed almost 4,000 civilians. Nor the mass killings by ISIS in Mosul.
The British journalist says most shockingly is that she even did not mention the 9/11 attacks on New York and goes on to elaborate on the reasons by saying “the 9/11 bloodbath was carried out by al-Qaeda. And al-Qaeda in Syria has changed its name to al-Nusra and then to Jabhat Fateh al-Sham and – well, it’s al-Sham (alias Nusra, alias al-Qaeda) that’s been fighting against the Syrian regime in eastern Aleppo. A bit difficult, you see, for Samantha to express her horror over the most terrifying attack on her country in recent history – talk about 'barbarism against civilians' – when the very criminal organization which committed this outrage is, yes, in eastern Aleppo fighting against the Syrian army”.
So Samantha has to throw the dead of 9/11 into the trash bin in order to tell us how “creeped out” al-Qaeda’s enemies should be at their behavior in Aleppo. Out, too, go the Christians murdered or deported by ISIS in Mosul, those Yazidis subject to ISIS’ “ethnic cleansing” – a subject of which Samantha was quite an expert when it was taking place in Bosnia. In fact, ISIS simply gets deleted from Samantha’s narrative. They get, in effect, a clean bill of health.
