The Human Rights Council mocked its mandate. It blamed victims, not perpetrators. Conflict resolution remains distant. War looms likely. Nations blaming Assad and HRC officials bear responsibility if it's launched.
A Final Comment
On June 2, DebkaFile (DF) headlined "Turkey ditches Syrian rebels. Will Israel attack Hizballah's Scuds?" saying:
"In an astonishing about face, Turkey has just turned away from its 14-month support for the anti-Assad revolt alongside the West and made common cause with Russia, i.e. Bashar Assad."
DF accuracy is mixed. It's connected to Israel's Mossad. Turkey just indicted four ex-senior Israeli commanders for Mavi Marmara killings.
Maybe DF's report is retribution. Separating facts from propaganda is challenging. The above headline is astonishing. Credible evidence wasn't presented.
DF also said Hezbollah scuds are being transferred from Syria to Lebanon. At issue is doing it safely, it said.
"One plan is to enlist the Palestinian Jihad Islami in the Gaza Strip and exploit a clash over the Scuds' transfer as a trigger for an all round military offensive against Israel.""It would be timed for the moment the Western-Arab intervention in Syria against President Assad crosses the line between covert and overt military action and begins an operation to establish safe zones as bases for rebel operation."
