A renowned US historian says Russia will respond to a war on Syria as anti-Syrian propaganda by Israeli, NATO and US officials suggesting a possible military intervention in the Arab country is escalating, Press TV reports.
In an exclusive interview with Press TV, Dr. Webster Griffin Tarpley pointed to comments made by the US Department of State’s spokesperson, Victoria Nuland, and the NATO chief, Andres Fogh Rasmussen, who compared Syria to Bosnia, with “the obvious implication that NATO may do a unilateral, outside of the UN Security Council, bombing attack.”
“The response to that came quite quickly,” Tarpley noticed, citing Russian media reports, saying Russian President Vladimir Putin has reacted to the remarks by ordering two Russian divisions, a paratroopers division and an infantry division, plus Spetsnaz Brigades who are based in Tartus, Syria, to prepare for a possible confrontation.
“At any time, the sovereign government of Syria could obviously invite these Russian forces to come in and this would not be a violation of anybody’s international law,” he explained.
Meanwhile, the historian said, Tel Aviv is using such grounds as possible use of “chemical weapons against men, women, and children” by the Syrian government as pretext to justify a possible military assault on Syria even if it means triggering a broader conflict across the region.
According to Tarpley, a military operation in Syria will inevitably lead to the massacre of large numbers of Christians, who account for some 20 percent of the Syrian population.
Wahhabi extremists from Saudi Arabia, who Tarpley said would be leading the war “with some kind of an internal coup,” will engage in the killing of the Alawite Shia Muslims and Christians.
This is expected to spark a protest from the Vatican, but the White House has masterminded the so-called ‘Vatican Spring’ — the attack on the Vatican to suppress the response from the Holy See.

The Western Vampire (the US government and NATO being under their thumb as well as the UN-sofar-) really wants to skin this Syria cat……I wonder what it will take to bring those to justice that control NATO ( we are looking at the entire weapon industry and their shareholders)……
Only the US military will be able to draw the line.US military staff has been abused for a l o n g time…their allegiance to warcrimes that they were used for via brainwashing and misinformation needs to end r i g h t now.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
Once the US military draws the line between the massmurderers that hire them and themselves, all other military world wide will follow.My deceased dad was a NATO general.He did n o t know who was pulling the strings….he meant well and thoought he did something right…..but now we all know who pulls the strings behing NATO , the US government and the UN…a total CRIMECARTEL..we know, who they are..they need to be stopped right here, right now with Syria!
I totally agree. The US military needs to decide, and decide soon, which side they are on PUBLICLY and stop playing games. I realize any sort of military action, such as the mass arrest scenario that many have been talking about, could be very painful on both sides of the ongoing war for freedom, but doing nothing for much longer isn’t a reasonable solution any longer.
