SYRIA… HAS IT BECOME THE “FORGOTTEN WAR”?

For over three years now, I've traveled back to the topic of Aleppo and what it means to the Rebels as well as Assad.

Once again, the story of Aleppo has crept into the news; well……almost!

When was the last time any of us heard an update on the events in Syria; in Western media that is?

Assad bombs his own children every day of the week and where is the outcry?

Rockets fly into innocent homes and nobody riots in Paris!

Does the UN even talk about Syria anymore?

What’s the count in Gaza and Israel…… 700 or so?

What’s the count in Syria…… creeping up on 200,000, but who is counting?

Aleppo; the stronghold of the “resistance”?

Is it really?

What is the “resistance”?

Who is the “Resistance”?

Does anyone remember?

Does anyone care?

If Aleppo goes back into the hands of Assad and his Persian Masters, is it over?

Does Assad and the Iranians win?

What is the definition of winning?

Aleppo is a rotting pile of death of concrete dust; that is what Assad will win back.

And what of the “resistance”?

Do the tea drinking “moderates” head back to the Ottomans and plot for the next twenty years?

Is the fall of Aleppo the end of the Islamic State forces?

Will Assad apply what is left of his forces to Iraq and once again do the bidding of the Persians?

If Aleppo falls, does Hezbollah finally go back home to Lebanon?

Once again the “Battle for Aleppo” is about to begin…..again!!!!!

What will it achieve?

What is left of a city that no one has the money to rebuild?

 Soon, the dead will fill their shallow graves and in the end, nothing will change in what was once known as Syria!

And in the end, the truth will be this!

No one seems to care anymore.

Oh and by the way; if I was a betting man, I would place a month’s pay on Hezbollah’s homeland and families paying the price for the assault on Aleppo.

“Hit the enemy where they are not”!
