The U.S. is accused of deliberately attacking and killing Syrian Army units protecting Deir ez-Zor from ISIS/Daech fighters. Shortly afterward, Russian and Syrian forces are accused of targeting a humanitarian aid convoy in the Aleppo countryside. Will the accusations and counter-accusations lead to war between Russia and the U.S.?
The Global Research News Hour focuses this week on the major powers showdown emerging around Syria. The show starts with a repeat of a recent show from Victoria based radio station CFUV, in which host Chris Cook of Gorilla-Radio speaks with Rick Sterling of the Syria Solidarity Movement about how a supposedly humanitarian group known as the White Helmets is furthering the U.S. imperial agenda.
Later we hear from Canadian writer, and former High School teacher Mark Taliano about what he observed on the ground duiring his recent trip to Syria.
Finally, Chicago-based broadcaster and writer Stephen Lendman joins us to talk about the propaganda campaign pushing the populace toward a nuclear conflagration.
