[While we hope that any new evidence uncovered in these terrorist cave networks will exonerate the Syrian government from the absurd charges that they used chemical weapons, it is more likely that the U.S. and its allies will ignore or deny any proof presented to them that counters their vicious lies and propaganda. Furthermore, any... Continue Reading →
[The latest move by the Democratic Party to announce impeachment proceedings against US President Trump demonstrates the sheer hypocrisy of American liberals and the utter moral bankruptcy of the entire American political system.

[Will the US, France, or the UK pay for what they have done? We won't be holding our breath. The UN is a weapon, and it is wielded by the powerful against the weak.
