President Assad is not now and never was a brutal dictator who gasses his own people. In fact, in a classic case of "reverse projection", NATO terrorists are the brutal dictators who gas Assad's own people.
Imperialists and their agencies embed simplistic war propaganda memes into the collective consciousness of the masses through constant repetition of fake evidence. The fake evidence is fabricated by fake "NGO's".
In fact, Syrians have always been strongly supportive of President Assad. In a classic case of "admission against interest", even a NATO survey demonstrated this. According to Voltaire.net
The study shows that 70% of Syrians support President Bashar al-Assad, 20% adopt a neutral position and 10% support the "rebels."
Empire weaponizes "NGO's" to sell fake "humanitarian wars". Earlier, for example, we explored the case of the Western state-funded White Helmets, which serve to feed war propaganda into the Western news chains. But there is a whole spectrum of fake NGO's all interlinked. (For example, the White Helmets are sources of war propaganda for Amnesty International and Syrian Observatory for Human Rights)
Bread and Circuses, Clowns and Imposters. "Syria Face to Face"
Imperialists and their agencies suppress real evidence and amplify fake news stories. War propaganda is a vital component of hybrid warfare, and it is, therefore criminal.
