Britain’s warmonger foreign secretary
stresses military intervention in Syria

British Foreign Secretary William Hague has implicitly called for a foreign military invasion of Syria to end what he described as “the Syrian catastrophe”.
The call came irrespective of a vote last Thursday, when the House of Commons, the UK lower house of parliament, killed a motion put forward by Prime Minister David Cameron, calling for joining the U.S. in yet another military adventurism in the Middle East, this time against Syria.
William Hague was reacting to a UN report, in which it was claimed that the number of refugees fleeing civil war in Syria had passed the 2 million mark.
“1 year ago: 230,000 Syrian refugees. Today: 2,000,000. 1/2 children. If we don’t end the conflict, think what the figure could be next year”, Hague tweeted.
However, the UK foreign secretary did not mention the fact that those countries in which the UK and U.S. had intervened militarily, are suffering the same catastrophe he is moaning about.
Millions of families from Afghanistan and Iraq left their countries when Britain and U.S. formed a coalition with their allies in 2001 and 2003 respectively and invaded the countries as part of their so-called war on terror, and they have not returned since.
Warmongers in Britain and the U.S. are beating the drums of war again with their puppet regime of Zionists test-firing airborne ballistic missiles in the Mediterranean.
On Tuesday morning, Russian radar detected the launch of two sea-launched “objects” towards the eastern Mediterranean. Later, the Israeli regime confirmed that it test-fired missiles in a joint war-game with the U.S. military.
Meanwhile, William Hague told the House of Commons that the coalition government was still seeking to convince Russia to agree to firm action against Syria.
The Russian government has dismissed as unconvincing U.S.-led reports alleging that the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had authorized chemical attack on its own people.
In the Commons, leading Conservative MP John Baron, urged William Hague to engage with Iran in their bid to resolve the crisis in Syria.
But, Hague replied that dealing with Iran was problematic.
