History suggests otherwise, as well as intelligence reports No apologies for returning today to the strange case of the “moderate” Jabhat al-Nusra rebels, the throat-cutters and executioners who are playing the anti-Isis card to woo the US. Their leader, you may recall, told Qatar’s Al Jazeera channel that his al-Qaeda affiliated warriors will oppose both Isis and Bashar al-Assad – and even protect Syria’s Christian and Alawite minorities. The usual American nomenklatura are telling the world this is tosh. It’s the “conspiracy theorists” who are to blame, they say, for suggesting that the US might send barrel-loads of new weapons to such men.

During his tenure fierce fighting took place with the death toll measured in thousands, mainly civilians. In August-September 2014 and February 2015 the Ukrainian military suffered a crushing defeat. But it has failed to cool down the fervor of war mongers. Today they are shelling the urban areas of Donetsk and Luhansk People’s republics (Novorossia) and prepare armor units for offensive. Poroshenko is not the only who decides if a cleansing operation should launched. Neither he, nor Prime Minister Yatsenyuk, nor all those holding top positions in the contemporary Ukraine have enough authority to take decisions. Ukraine is governed from outside and its parliament votes upon the instructions from Washington.
