War, War, War See other War, War, War Articles Title: Washington's Imperial Project in Syria Faces Defeat Washingtons Imperial Project in Syria Faces Defeat by Stephen Lendman Obama will long be remembered for waging endless wars of aggression on humanity throughout his tenure, at home and abroad - a war criminal remaining unaccountable for his high crimes, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, one of many examples mocking its legitimacy. Hell leave office in January after bombing seven countries, multiple conflicts on his watch still raging, including nearly six years of terror-war on Syria, a nation threatening no one. According to Syrias War Information Center, around 65% of eastern Aleppo was liberated from terrorist control, additional neighborhoods freed daily. US-backed terrorists are increasingly isolated, heading toward capitulation or elimination, their choice. On December 5, the Wall Street Journal reported theyre weaken(ing) in confrontation with government forces, defeat virtually certain, likely in weeks. Surrounded by Syrian and allied troops, theyre increasingly desperate
fac(ing) potential collapse. Many ceased combat and fled with civilians to government-controlled areas. Others are thinking of leaving
because they have become exhausted by endless fighting, according to Mohammad Al-Sheikh, a member of one terrorist group. Their spirits are low, he said. They are in despair over not being able to break the siege. On December 4, Reuters reported internecine fighting among terrorists in eastern Aleppo in the face of an unprecedented onslaught by Russian-backed government forces
helping to put (Assad) on the verge of (his) biggest victory yet - liberating Aleppo entirely, retaking it after four years under US-backed terrorists control. Winning the battle for Aleppo doesnt end conflict in Syria. Itll represent a major turning point, reminiscent of Churchill remarking after winning a 1942 battle against Nazi Germany that this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning. Eventual triumph followed, sadly replaced by a far greater threat - headquartered in Washington, heading NATOs killing machine, waging global war on humanity. Stephen Lendman lives in Chicago.
