BBC Strings Lies Together to Propagandize for Assad’s Overthrow
To introduce this string
of BBC lies, one thing that’s worth noting is that overwhelmingly the
people of Syria view that nation’s current President, Bashar al-Assad,
favorably. He won his election on 27 May 2007 by acclamation in a
referendum when the Associated Press at the time reported that, “the country’s tiny opposition boycotted the voting.”
(Note that it indeed was “a tiny opposition.”) The AP reported: “Still,
the president is assured of another seven-year term in a referendum
that gave voters just one choice: a green circle to approve Assad or a
gray one to oppose his second term. In his first referendum, he received
97.29 percent approval.” The West supports not only that “tiny
opposition,” but the much bigger opposition that comes from the Saudi
and Qatari royal families, and which has recruited Sunni jihadists from
around the world to fight in Syria against the secular Shiite Assad.
Furthermore, repeated
polling even by Western polling firms, shows that the Syrian people
overwhelmingly reject Islamic jihadists and blame the U.S. for ISIS. They hate America because America backs the jihadists. (And see here U.S. Senator John McCain congratulating the ISIS “heart-eater” who was helping to lead in the fight to remove Assad. And here is the back-story regarding that “heart-eater.” And here
is confirmation from McCain that he “accidentally” met with him.)
Furthermore, the U.S. has not been inactive in the Syrian war; long
before America’s active bombing campaign inside Syria, the U.S. was
feeding sarin gas into al-Qaeda’s affiliate there al-Nusra, and
fabricated blame for the sarin gas attack which even British
intelligence could not endorse but instead found to be a ludicrous
fraud, but kept secret (in order not to embarrass their ally). With that, then, as the firmly documented historical background:

BBC Newshour, on the
morning of Friday September 18th, interviewed Oxford Professor Eugene
Rogan and also the Century Foundation’s Thanassis Cambanis, on the
question, “Is it time for the west to bury the hatchet with President Assad and ally with him against IS?”

Cambanis said, “To
expect Bashar al-Assad to be a reliable partner … ignores the last
decade during which he single-handedly has driven Syria to the brink of
destruction, and, by the way, has been the key culprit in the rise of
al-Qaeda in Iraq first, and later in the rise of ISIS.” Rogan did not
challenge that assertion.
