This will be a brief response to Patrick Higgins latest foray on Syria that appears in today’s CounterPunch.
To start with, the title of his article refers to me as part of the Cruise Missile Left. What an odd assertion given the fact that the USA has been bombing Syria for more than a year but has not targeted a single Baathist soldier, airplane or piece of heavy artillery. What kind of 1984 world are we living in when an aspiring journalist can smear me as an advocate of American military intervention when that intervention has been ongoing for a year? Perhaps he will awaken from his slumber when a stray American missile accidentally takes out a Baathist tank. full: http://louisproyect.org/2015/09/04/a-brief-response-to-patrick-higgins/ _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
