Alistair Crooke, a former British intelligence officer talks about the killings in the Houla area on Friday, 25 May, 2012. He says that it is very unlikely that soldiers would have committed such atrocities. It bears more the signature of some anti-Shia Iraqi killings squads.
Former Pentagon analyst Thomas Barnett called for a NATO intervention into Syria this morning on U.S. National Public Radio. Barnett suggests that NATO's intervention could "speed the killing". His call is one more piece of evidence that NATO proponents are increasingly trying to circumvent the United Nations in favor of the U.S.-dominated "alliance". You can listen to his interview here
