This seems to me one of the most balanced comments on the Syria facts. Plus, I would add a comment someone made on another post, that sounds extremely relevant to this case: “The US intervention in Syria looks like someone dangling a set of car keys in front of a newborn to distract his attention while he takes something else from him”. Or, as Karl ReMarks http://ift.tt/2nKS8SP put it: “Trump has quickly discovered the magic principle of US politics: when things go wrong at home, start a military venture in the Middle East.”

I moved to Brussels from my native Milan in 2000. Best decision in my life. 4 children and a lovely wife, Valeria. More on us on www.segantini.net. I worked for 15 year for two global medical associations, the International Society of Nephrology (ISN) and the European Society for Organ Transplantation (ESOT). Now I consult for a variety of organisations, working as a digital nomad.
