Le Monde, which is a respectable publication, unlike Global Research, which boasts 9/11 kooks among its contributors.
Fair enough, but that still doesn’t discount the valid points that Rivero brought up. Especially his point number one which is factual and uses valid critical thinking.
Le Monde has partial state ownership for crap’s sake. They are far from being an unbiased source and the article itself is sketchy as @shawnhcorey has mentioned.
If you’re going to make rhetorical arguments regarding Assad’s motivations, you need to have inside knowledge of what’s goign on in his circle, and in his chain of command.
That certainly hasn’t stopped the Obama Administration from blowing rhetoric around without proper backup and that also leads us to the crux of the situation…
Once we’re done bombing Assad (and, inevitably, civilians) do we then attack the rebels (and, inevitably, civilians) who have recruited child soldiers, eaten the hearts out of soldiers, carried out beheadings and are also strongly suspected of already carrying out chemical attacks themselves as well?
… or is this all just about gas pipeline territory and money?
