Green Left Weekly attacks Syria, Again
By Dr Tim Anderson 10 May 2015 - One of the success stories of the big powers in their dirty war against Syria has been the co-option of many western liberal and left groups, which might otherwise have been anti-war. The idea that proxy wars have been ‘revolutions’ and their local agents ‘activists’, has found fertile ground in imperial culture.
Pravda by Tim Anderson 10 March 2015 - Reports that US and British aircraft carrying arms to ISIS have been shot down by Iraqi forces have been met with shock and denial in western countries.

Syrian Presidential Elections and the ABC's Farce
By Wayne Sonter 5 June 2014 - Given the Syrian presidential elections had just been held and Syria has been in the spotlight quite a bit over the last few years, I thought I’d turn on my radio (fairly) early this morning and see if I could catch the results.
