Syria Conflict: Us 'outraged' Over Aid Convoy Attack
http://
Why was this aid convoy attacked ? It was obvious that it was an aid convoy and now Red Crescent workers have been killed.
What price the word Assad or Putin now....the same Putin that an awful lot of people were lauding only 24 hours ago ?

The ceasefire had already been broken over the weekend when US bombing raids (with the help of a British drone) killed Syrian Government troops. The Syrians immediately declared that the attack meant the ceasefire was over.
So why was an aid convey allowed to move when hostilities had resumed?
// NEWS BRIEF The Syrian military called off a cease-fire agreement that began last week, a decision it blamed on rebel groups, but which was likely affected by a U.S. bombing mission that killed Syrian government forces over the weekend.
Hours AFTER the cease-fire was declared over, the UN said an aid convoy carrying food and hygiene kits to tens of thousands of people trapped in Aleppo was attacked. Of the 31 trucks in the envoy, 18 were hit, said a UN spokesman Monday. It’s unclear who carried out the attack or the manner in which the convoy was hit. //

ichkeria,
Obama/Kerry didn't agree to a ceasefire out of any sympathy for the Syrian people. They wanted a temporary peace while the US Presidential Election was on. Nothing highlights his failure and the Democrats than daily pictures of death and destruction coming from Syria. There is no greater vote loser than losing a war, especially if it is knocking Hillary off the front pages.

If Obama and Kerry thought they could strike a deal with Assad and Putin that would last until the end of the US presidential election then they are dumber than even you think Gromit
As a matter of fact, it was the RUSSIAN election that coincided almost exactly with the short cessation of hostilities
Strange, that :-)

Talbot....yes, no problem there !
Putin is being lauded for being "committed"....committed to bombing civilian targets, including hospitals in Syria, committed to wide-spread election fraud, and committed to annexing parts of a neighbouring country.
I still stand by my original accusation made yesterday in regards to Diane James....she expressed admiration for Putin.....
"After naming Thatcher and Churchill, James was asked to confirm that she also considered the Russian president among her top three, and she responded that she did"
Ms James was joined, enthusiastically, by lots here on AB for being a committed Leader...some even went on to include Adolph Hitler in their list of strong, committed Leaders.

I am sure most people here wouldn't go as far as to "support" Putin (tho what does that actually mean anyway) but there was a lot of rather ridiculous faffing around, largely I suspect because it was a UKIP politician who had said what she said.
I'd call it "praising with excessively faint damnation" :-)
