    Basically ironclad proof that the BBC whitewashed an official Saudi government admission that they are providing support to AQ in Syria.

    Not only does this prove what many have been saying for some time about the Saudi government supporting AQ in Syria, it also proves that major western media agencies like the BBC have been attempting to whitewash and otherwise cover up this fact.

    I read recently that it's Saudi Arabia that supports ISIS, and it's Turkey that supports Al Nusra/Al Queda. Yesterday Turkey sent planes to pick up three hundred ISIS fighters escaping from Syria and shipped them off to Yemen.

    As for the BBC, I began distrusting them years ago. They had presented a very slanted viewpoint over an incident to prejudice the readers when I knew differently, and since then I stopped reading them.

    The BBC is run by the British government, and it's very deceitful. Britain created 'Bellingcat' as an authority, when he has none, and then quoted him to give him credibility, and now they have this Syrian who lives in Britain coming out with lies about Russians bombing hospitals.

    If Washington and London were to put their brains into fighting terrorists, instead of formulating lies for their propaganda networks, ISIS and Al Nusra wouldn't exist today.

    Brilliant.

    We're being led by a couple of deluded, megalomaniacal fools.

    Love the way the Saudi Ambassador wants to shut Corbyn up - as if he thinks the British state can simply tell him (Corbyn) to stop saying bad things about Saudi. It speaks volumes about their lack of understanding of the changed realities in British politics.

    Perhaps Corbyn will say something worse about them today just to reflect his disdain?

    There's no shortage of stupid propaganda.. Assad has been claiming that Saudi Arabia is responsible for the protests in March 2011 against government corruption and brutality in Derra.

    Saudi are our friends, along with Israel. They help our "leadership" in the world.

    Unfortunately, there is nothing new.

    Another hi from the "right" side of history:

    This is confirmation from the Saudi government and the British, state-run media of two salient facts.

    1. The Saudi government is and has been providing direct aid to AQ in Syria and
    2. The western media is covering it up.

    In other words, everything we objective, honest people have been saying about the UK government and media providing support to AQ in Syria is true, and all the claims to the contrary the merest imposture of propagandists.

    This is the same country where a candidate for the European Parliament was arrested for offending Muslims. They obviously do not care about freedom of speech.

    Another Lawrence of Arabia. The British created Saudi Arabia and now it is behind in trying to expand Saudi's territories and influence to Syria.

    Source for the plane story please?

    Ehm … again bashing on Washington and London, but who is blamed to help ISIS and Al Qaida?
    So why are you bashing only on them and not on Saudi Arabia and Turkey?
    This is the general problem and BS done too often … where is all the shouting against Saudi and Erdogan? I reads only bashing of USA and UK.

    I wouldn't say we're being led by them. More like they are ruling over us with an iron fist while we're slavishly obedient and deferential.

    The British elites mastered dark arts of propaganda. Consider this.

    Watch: Tory MP accuses BBC of bias over ‘amateurish’ Newsnight Yemen special
    http://blogs.new.spectator.co.uk/20...bias-over-amateurish-newsnight-yemen-special/

    And the Guardian is not far behind in covering up for Saudi crimes in Yemen and misinforming people. Left or right, they all serve the same masters. The corporate world. I don't think there is a single honest journalist left in the British media.

    It's from Greekdefense.net. They do print news that the other media will not mention for geo political reasons. Since the Greeks have no reason to lie about it, I believe them..

    What they wrote was that about two hundred members of ISIS were killed, and three hundred were picked up by planes and taken to Yemen. I gather that they don't want ISIS in Turkey because of their attacks on the Kurds.

    Or on the other hand, it might be a pretense by Erdogan to show that they have nothing to do with ISIS.


    If Washington and London wanted the killings to stop, all they had to do was stop the arm supplies instead of increasing it. For example, when Russia wanted the Donbas militia to stop advancing into Ukraine and come to the peace table, all they had to do was close the border and cut off their supply route. You can't continue fighting if you have no supplies.

    Anyway there are a lot of problems going on with Turkey...too many for me to go into right now.

    The British had NOTHING to do with the "creation" of Saudi Arabia.. Nada, Zip.

    For God's sake, learn some history.

    Yemen is the control of the strait and the ability to destabilize Saudi Arabia.
    Part of Americans are stupid

    Assad's claims are probably right given what we know of Saudi Arabia's admission that they're supporting AQ in Syria.

    The Saudis can support whoever they please. Assad and his goons only understand the force of ISIS types.

    It's a Middle Eastern thing, you wouldn't understand.

    Right - and they're our bloody servants!! What we do that's 'slavish and obedient' is to keep voting the fools in at every general election.

    You're so right imo. The whole voting thing is a rigged roulette wheel.
