The hypocrisy of Us – Rori Donaghy,

Syrian diplomats have been expelled and the UK Foreign Secretary William Hague has explained that his priority is ‘to provide for the end of all violence’ amidst waves of public revulsion at the growing atrocities in poor Syria. Isn’t this cynical manipulation and hypocrisy?

140 civilians dead. Of those, 93 are said to be children. A village decimated, families torn apart and lives left irreparably destroyed. The perpetrator initially claims the incident didn’t happen ↑ ↑ . As time moves on, they claim that 60 – 65 terrorists were killed in the attack, asserting that they are fighting a sophisticated and committed internal insurgency. http://www.opendemocracy.net/rori-donaghy/hypocrisy-of-us

About Intercultural Resources

Intercultural Resources is a forum for research and political intervention on issues related to the impacts and alternatives to destructive development. Our effort draws upon the social, cultural, material and intellectual resources that have been generated in the course of dialogues between people of different cultures on questions of social justice, development and self-rule. We are of the view that dialogue can sustain plurality and open possibilities for recovery of the ground lost on account of inter-cultural alienation, which is manifest in a variety of forms of violence that we encounter everyday at different levels of social life. Intercultural Resources is based in Delhi, India. Email: ihpindia@gmail.com
