Basically everything the corporate is saying is a lie. The civilians in Aleppo are not being slaughtered, the civilians are praising the Syrian government for the liberation, and she goes on about the huge human rights violations that were committed by the rebels. These include but are not limited to.
1.) Executing people
2.) Bombing hospitals
3.) Hoarding supplies such as food, water, and medical supplies
4.) Using people as human shields while fighting the Syrian army.
Long story short, the rebels aren't the ones we should be supporting, but the military fighting to retake the city.
OK Lordgrim.
...
Actually, this is more in line with that guy that calls us all Zionists. Whatever his name was. Actually, Lordgrim is the one you are talking about.
Blazed just hates us all.

I prefer ISIL also, but that's largely because I'm a fan of Archer.

Isis is also an uncommon name but none-the-less a name. ISIL sounds a bit better.

Quote: “A ruptured pipeline has spilled more than 176,000 gallons of crude oil into a hillside and a Little Missouri River tributary about 150 miles west of Cannon Ball, N.D., where thousands of activists have spent months fighting construction of the Dakota Access oil pipeline, state officials said Monday.
A segment of the Belle Fourche Pipeline near Belfield, N.D., began leaking earlier this month, contaminating nearly six miles of the Ash Coulee Creek before cleanup workers contained it, Bill Suess, an environmental scientist from the North Dakota Department of Health, told the Associated Press. An estimated 130,200 gallons of oil spilled into the creek, and another 46,200 gallons leaked onto a hillside, Suess told Forum News Service in a separate interview.
The spill dirtied private and federal land along the waterway, but no drinking water sources were affected, Suess said. About 37,000 gallons of oil have been recovered so far, he said, and a crew of about 60 workers were averaging 100 yards of cleanup per day, though snow and single-digit temperatures have complicated the response.”

The rebels aren't working with ISIS, no. Which rebels?
There are more factions in that conflict than fleas on a sick dog.
Assad and Russia say all rebels are ISIS. Period.
Turkey is only worried about Kurdish rebels in Syria, who they do not claim are involved with ISIS. Occasionally take shots at groups that the US says are ISIS, but also at some other groups that we support.
The US supports some rebels that are anti American, but at least are not part of ISIS. Or so we claim.
And then again Assad, in the past, has avoided going after ISIS, preferring their back door assistance in fighting other rebels. No idea of how they stand on this today but they are still buying oil from ISIS. One can only assume that Putin backs this strategy.
Iran backs the Assad regime with supplies and some ground troops, which they deny BTW. No idea on their views of who is ISIS and who isn't.
Personally I would love to see Mossad's take on the assorted factions in that steaming mess of poo.

Assad and Putin can't tell the difference between a military target and a hospital, everyone is past the point of caring about what those two have to say.

Ok I know it's InfoWars, but the woman at the press conference is the woman you want to be listening to.
Then post her full interview, not edited infowar crap
YouTube Video Placeholder
She had one question at the end, she looks legit until she answer questions and goes off about conspiracy theories, she didn't document anything on a large scope, it's basically "Believe me it's true!!!".
Can I get a synopsis, what is this about? I can't watch right now. Basically everything the corporate is saying is a lie. The civilians in Aleppo are not being slaughtered, the civilians are praising the Syrian government for the liberation, and she goes on about the huge human rights violations that were committed by the rebels. These include but are not limited to.
1.) Executing people
2.) Bombing hospitals
3.) Hoarding supplies such as food, water, and medical supplies
4.) Using people as human shields while fighting the Syrian army.
Long story short, the rebels aren't the ones we should be supporting, but the military fighting to retake the city. So what makes you think this person is a more reliable source for information on the matter at hand than others?

Well, you do understand why Obama Administration is exclusively using ISIL instead of ISIS, right? No. Please do tell. By making it sound like the group is operating in Libya instead of Syria, they can pass this off as not part of the civil war (which is a US government induced/assisted issue) and something not sponsored by the US government.
Which anyone with a brain can tell is that administration is trying to play semantics with this issue.
If you really didn't know, then now you do.
If you really knew (which I believe you did), then *golfclap*

Except it doesn't mean "Libya" it means "Levant," an area that includes Syria.
It's still a bit of semanticism (it's a word now, I said so), but just to maintain some level of precision, correction is made.

First time I have ever seen anyone try to claim Libya was the reason. No, the "L" in ISIL does not stand for Libya.

And ISIL is a more accurate term. Technically speaking.
Still. We've all (domestically speaking, anyhow) accepted ISIS as the generally used name and they're just being stubborn.

Impertinente doesn't mean naughty. It means insolent.

Impertinente doesn't mean naughty. It means insolent.
And it means the same thing in English, we just don't put the e at the end.
So...Josi's just bein' Josi as ***.

Which, for the record, is how I always imagine the name.
"Josiah As ***."

Google is always right.
That being said @KN the point that Ramy and I made still stands though too. ISIL is definitely more name and archer friendly.

I don't think Seha even knows Italian. Her flag indicates she is Canadian.
