THE PRECEEDING BLOG BY PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS STATES THAT IN SYRIA "THE FACTS ARE DIFFERENCT FROM THOSE PRESENTED BY THE PRESSTITUTE AMERICAN MEDIA AND MEMBERS OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT." WHILE I KNOW THAT PCR USES ONLY RELIABLE SOURCES TO MAKE SUCH ACCUSATIONS, MY READERS MAY LIKE TO ACCESS SUCH SOURCES. IF SO, FIND ALL OF THE SORDID DETAILS IN THE TWO VIDEOS IMMEDIATELY BELOW AS RELATED BY A VETERAN REPORTER WHO HAS ACTUALLY ROAMED THE LOCATIONS IN QUESTION.

For several months anti-government rebels have been protesting the government led by Bashar al-Assad. In the past few days the violence in Syria has increased radically and over the weekend the Syria resolution proposed by the UN Security Council was vetoed by China and Russia. Many have criticized the two countries for the veto but many feel Syria will share the same fate as Libya if the resolution passes. Pepe Escobar, Asia Times correspondent, joins us to look at the bigger picture.

The EU states are calling for creating humanitarian corridors in Syria, which some fear could open the door to foreign intervention. But Asia Times correspondent Pepe Escobar says it's already underway. 



Blogger's Note: A year or so ago I came across a couple videos by Pepe Escobar on his theme of "Pipelineistan." But I subsequently lost track of his publications until last week when I friended him on Facebook and then asking where I could find his latest reporting. He vectored me to Russia Today, from which I selected the two videos above. Those wishing to learn more about Pepe's concept of Pipelineistan should watch the video below.

Many have theories as to why the US continues to fight in Afghanistan. One theory is that it's all about a pipeline. The Stream spoke with journalist Pepe Escobar and with political blogger Derrick Crowe.
