WHAT DEFINES EVIL?

Assad is using medieval siege tactics against his own people. It is the "LET THEM EAT RATS!" theory of governance. Is it any surprise that no one but his own family really thinks that he is fit to govern anything?

Now the UN wants to bring in FOOD and Assad says (in translation), "Of course, giggle, if we can manage the security, we will let the UN in, maybe." Then in a whisper, "Aren't those rebel supporters dead of starvation YET?"

And have you SEEN the videos of the towns he has "taken back"? No one could live in them. They are empty, shelled into rubble. As winter sets in, the civilian population will start dying from being cold and homeless.

Those countries who are afraid of becoming a friend of Russia, only have to look at Syria for a lesson in their alternative future.
