Syria – and lessons NOT learned from Libya

By: Karsten Riise

Déjavu – Professor Alan J. Kuperman in Havard Kennedy School Policy Brief Sept.2013, released a damning analysis of a Western war-of-choice:
  1. western narrative about the regime is wrong
  2. insurgents NOT peaceful
  3. NATO intervention increases death & suffering many-fold
  4. Western intervention true aim is NOT humanitarian but regime-change
  5. Result is strengthening and regional spread of extremism

Talking about Syria?

Yes indeed – and the above were all the lessons NOT learned from Libya.
