Syria and the 'popular will'

C4SS Center for a Stateless Society
by David D'Amato

06/20/11

The political class, the parasitic few who contrive the system of state capitalism, feel no need whatsoever to hide; they cheat and extort the public behind the language of the 'popular will'...

By Rick Rozoff

The West wants to put the region under Turkish control like in the Ottoman days. Turkey is a NATO member and embodies a safe kind of Islam for the West, so they have done a deal to give everything to Ankara.'
