A Final Comment

Syrians want peace, dignity, democracy, and free choice to decide who'll lead them. Washington has other goals in mind. 

Longstanding objectives involve replacing independent governments with subservient pro-Western ones it controls. Dark options are employed including war.

Good news along the way is welcome. On August 9, SANA state media headlined "Armed Forces Take Control of Salah Eddin Neighborhood in Aleppo, Terrorists Crossing Border from Lebanon Repelled," saying:

Syrian forces routed insurgents and took control of Aleppo's Salah Eddin neighborhood. Other neighborhoods are being liberated. Progress is slow to minimize casualties and damage.

Nonetheless, insurgents suffered heavy losses. Some surrender. Large weapons caches are seized or destroyed.
