War Lies From the Ministry of Truth-version 2

[malignd at aol.com]

What's absurd?  They did the calculus and figured that, whatever the US response, it wouldn't be boots on the ground or anything they couldn't weather.  


The idea that the Syrians risked large scale western intervention in a war they 
are winning seems absurd also.

The idea that the Syrians risked large scale western intervention in a war they 
are winning seems absurd also.  Considering the history of War lies from the 
ministry of truth there is little reason to think they stopped lying.
