Notre évaluation du processus d’Astana est positive tant qu’il sert le noble but pour lequel nous sommes venus jusqu’ici. Et c’est essentiellement :

1-la consolidation effective de l’accord de cessation des hostilités,

2-suivie de la séparation des groupes armés ayant signé cet accord de ceux qui ont refusé de le signer, c’est-à-dire la séparation entre ceux qui croient en une solution politique et les terroristes,

3-pour qu’ensuite, tous les signataires, y compris les trois États garants et les groupes terroristes ayant consenti à signer cet accord, soient obligatoirement engagés à combattre le terrorisme et à soutenir les efforts de l’Armée arabe syrienne, de ses amis et de ses alliés”… … …

… … …Bachar al-Jaafari : “Évidemment que l’arrivée si tardive de la délégation turque à Astana, sa représentativité réduite et son refus d’adhérer au projet du communiqué final sont embarrassants pour les autres États garants et le pays hôte. Quant à la deuxième partie de votre question, il serait plus opportun de la poser aux trois États garants”… … … “La Jordanie a été et reste une importante source de douleur et de perturbations pour notre peuple. Peut-être que sa participation à la réunion d’Astana en tant qu’observateur, comme je l’ai compris, contribuera à ce que Amman révise sa politique erronée à l’égard de la Syrie”…………….

Remember Aleppo?

Close to two months have now passed since the eastern part of Syria’s largest pre-war city was retaken by the government.

Peace has returned to the ancient city, the jihadis and their sympathisers have been evacuated to ‘rebel’-held parts of the country, and negotiations between the government and the armed opposition under the auspices of Russia, Iran and Turkey are ongoing.

The mainstream media, however, is suddenly relatively silent.

Perhaps they don’t want you to know what life under rebel occupation must have been like.

In this article, I offer a comprehensive analysis of the mass media’s war-time coverage of Aleppo, with emphasis on what they described as its “fall” in December 2016……..(By Bas Spliet, Scrutinised Minds)………….

The U.S. government is creating a new $160 million bureaucracy to shut down information that doesn’t conform to U.S. propaganda narratives, building on the strategy that sold the bloody Syrian “regime change” war…

The U.S. establishment is not content simply to have domination over the media narratives on critical foreign policy issues, such as Syria, Ukraine and Russia. It wants total domination. Thus we now have the “Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act” that President Obama signed into law on Dec. 23 as part of the National Defense Authorization Act for 2017, setting aside $160 million to combat any “propaganda” that challenges Official Washington’s version of reality.

The new law mandates the U.S. Secretary of State to collaborate with the Secretary of Defense, Director of National Intelligence and other federal agencies to create a Global Engagement Center “to lead, synchronize, and coordinate efforts of the Federal Government to recognize, understand, expose, and counter foreign state and non-state propaganda and disinformation efforts aimed at undermining United States national security interests.” The law directs the Center to be formed in 180 days and to share expertise among agencies and to “coordinate with allied nations.”

The legislation was initiated in March 2016, as the demonization of Russian President Vladimir Putin and Russia was already underway and was enacted amid the allegations of “Russian hacking” around the U.S. presidential election and the mainstream media’s furor over supposedly “fake news.” Defeated Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton voiced strong support for the bill: “It’s imperative that leaders in both the private sector and the public sector step up to protect our democracy, and innocent lives.”

The new law is remarkable for a number of reasons, not the least because it merges a new McCarthyism about purported dissemination of Russian “propaganda” on the Internet with a new Orwellianism by creating a kind of Ministry of Truth – or Global Engagement Center – to protect the American people from “foreign propaganda and disinformation.”……………..
