Dangerous War Escalation in Syria

Inching Closer & Closer to Major War, Including Nuclear War 

What is the U.S. Doing?

      This week a U.S. F-18 fighter jet shot down a Syrian government warplane in Syria, in a blatant violation of Syrian sovereignty, and international law. Only the U.S. can destroy another State’s plane in THEIR own country and call it “Self-defense” – See more at:

      Under the U.S. guise of ‘fighting terrorism” the U.S. is backing terrorists in an attempt to overthrow the government of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria. Today the entire region is in chaos. Just look at countries where the U.S. has intervened: Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, etc. But things could get much worse and fast. This most recent act of U.S. military aggression in Syria is bound to escalate tensions in an already dangerous international situation with Syria, Russia, and Iran. U.S. signals intent to occupy and divide Syria http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/47276.htm U.S. Sec. Of State Rex Tillerson admits that the U.S. is working on regime change in Iran. https://popularresistance.org/rex-tillerson-admits-us-working-towards-regime-change-in-iran/

      According to the Associated Press, “Russia says it will treat US-led coalition planes in Syria, west of the Euphrates, as targets after US downed Syrian jet.”

      Given the unstable nature of U.S. President, Donald Trump, there is growing concern that he could escalate matters further to divert attention from the widening investigations against him at home. Either by accident, miscalculation, or design, the situation could quickly escalate to a widening war involving countries with nuclear weapons.
