Syrian Cease Fire Update

The mainstream media continues to report on efforts to maintain the cease fire in Syria.  It makes me wonder if anyone reads these stories before they get printed.  This morning, the Assad/Russian/Iranian forces began a major push against the rebel forces in Aleppo.  To be clear, these rebels are not ISIS and they are not al Qaeda.  They are the non-terrorist Sunni rebels.  According to initial reports from Aleppo, about 100 rebels were killed in a few hours of shelling and bombing by the Assad alliance.  Just two days ago, this same Assad alliance bombed and destroyed a Red Cross humanitarian convoy bringing food and medical supplies to civilians trapped by the fighting. 

Why in the world is John Kerry still maintaining the fiction that there is a cease fire in Syria?  How many thousand bodies will have to be produced before Kerry and Obama will admit the truth?  There is no cease fire, and there never was one.

We are watching people in Syria who are the worst of the worst.  Sure, we have ISIS which has killed people because of their ethnic or religious background.  That's tens of thousands of dead.  Much worse, however, we have the Assad/Iran/Russia/Hezbollah forces that have killed people indiscriminately.  Assad and his fellow thugs have killed over 400,000 people in the war.  These people are the worst of the worst.
