Aleppo Liberated: Washington Post Finally Admits “Rebels” Invaded Syria – It was not an Uprising

By Tony Cartalucci, December 14 2016

For months as terrorists backed by the United States, Turkey, and their Persian Gulf allies lost significant ground to the Syrian Arab Army in Syria’s northern city of Aleppo, the battle was characterized by the Western media and Western politicians as a brutal assault on the city’s residents – the extinguishing of a 6 year-long uprising. However, in reality, that was never the case.

Who Planned the Terrorist Operation in Palmyra?

By Oriental Review, December 14 2016

The way the battle itself unfolded also seems suspicious.  Despite heavy losses in manpower and equipment, the terrorists were focused and steady in their efforts to penetrate the residential areas of the city, without pausing to inflict bloodshed or collateral damage.  This uncharacteristic behavior suggests that they had been drilled on the need to overtake the Syrian strongholds and make their way into the civilian neighborhoods prior to the arrival of the Russian air force.
