Aaaaand ... you're quoting the NYT. The one that had to write a mea culpa for crappy reporting not two weeks ago.
You're both too stupid to be believed.

SIG, you are chastising others for using the New York Times as a source? That's precious coming from someone whos favorite source is zerohedge where they post anonymously.

Save the Children, another terrorist mouthpiece according to Siggy, speaks out against the bombing of hospitals in east Aleppo:

Quote:
...
Sonia Khush, Syria Director for Save the Children said, “It was barely possible to imagine that the situation in Aleppo could become any worse, and yet the scenes we have seen over the weekend have been truly horrifying: Packed emergency rooms, children who appear to have inhaled chlorine gas struggling to breathe, confused and separated from their families, premature babies being rescued from damaged incubators and taken into smoke filled rooms as hospitals come under attack. Ambulances and mobile health units will do what they can to treat people when they are not being targeted themselves, but these only have room for a few patients and not nearly enough equipment to treat the range of injuries they are seeing.”

The story of Siggy's involvement in this thread:
1. Enter thread to defend Russia and Assad against accusations of war crimes by trashing all sources of information (including the UN and international charities and aid organisations)
2. Spread the Russian state propaganda narrative
3. Get challenged to back up this narrative with credible sources
4. Throw out personal insults and flee the thread
5. Repeat

How MANY 'last hospitals' in E Aleppo are there, anyway? It seems like there's been at least a half-dozen 'last hospitals' since the first 'last hospital'. How did that happen so many times? Because, once the 'last hospital' was bombed months ago, doesn't that mean there were no more left?
How did your beloved 'democratic' party fuck up so badly?

Well, I'm sorry for you that you can't answer a relevant question about your own topic, and are reduced to making your post entirely personal. Because, to reiterate, there have been multiple 'last hospitals' destroyed in E Aleppo. And the stories are all geared, I'm sure, to stampeding people into setting their brains aside and acting on outrage. But if they're not true - and all but one, the REAL 'last hospital', MUST be fabricated propaganda - why should I believe THIS story in a crowd of lies just like it?

Kiki I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you didn't see where I answered that question multiples times already in this thread.

Lol, Kiki you are the queen of vitriol. You don't get to be this thin-skinned.

What is so hard to understand about hospitals being bombed out of operation multiple times? Apparently neither you nor Signy can understand it.

The one complaint you can have about the media's reporting on this issue, and it's the only one, is the use of the word "destroyed" in headlines, which makes it sound, at first reading, like the destruction is total (e.g. here - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/nov/19/aleppo-hospitals-knocked
-out-airstrikes )
Now this article makes it very clear that the destruction of the hospitals is NOT total, i.e. they are constantly being repaired and put back into limited service (see paragraph 5) - but someone who just scans the headline might not gather that much (apparently you and Signy fall into this bracket). "Bombed out of operation" would be better than "destroyed" but hey, headline writers will often go with punchy wording, erring on the sensational, over dry preciseness. Want to rail against Western media and call it "fabricated propaganda" on the basis of headline wording, even though the rest of the article explains the situation clearly and accurately? Fine, have at it. But everyone knows that you and Siggy are just doing everything you can to stay blind to the gross atrocities Putin and Assad are committing - killing innocent men, women and children in the most barbaric and despicable ways, right in front of the world's eyes.

Well, then KRAPO, here's the problem: A large modern hospital can't be "destroyed" by one or two missiles or bombs. It would take multiple bombing runs .... the kind where the plane(s) turn around and strike again and again.
Yanno, kind of like the 1- hour bombing runs that the USA made over Syrian troops
Quote:
Washington claimed that this airstrike was a “mistake” and that it was somehow meant to target ISIS near the eastern city of Deir el-Zour in Syria. It was a sustained attack that lasted for 1 hour, featuring repeated bombing runs by US, UK, Australian and Danish aircraft.
or when the USA destroyed the MSF hospital in Kunduz over the course of ONE HOUR
Quote:
Médecins Sans Frontières reported that between 02:08 and 03:15 local time on the night of 3 October, the organization's Kunduz hospital was struck by "a series of aerial bombing raids". The humanitarian organization said the hospital was "hit several times" in the course of the attack, and that the building was "partially destroyed". It further said the hospital had been "repeatedly & precisely hit" and that the attack had continued for 30 minutes after MSF staff contacted U.S. and Afghan officials during the strike.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kunduz_hospital_airstrike
WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?
Because a single missile strike, or even two, indicates that the real target was elsewhere ... possibly even across the street. It indicates an off-target missile, more than anything.
And THAT indicates that the hospitals are not being DELIBERATELY targeted, and there goes your "war crimes" concept. And EVEN WHEN hospitals are deliberately targeted and destroyed, such as in Kunduz (which killed 42 people, BTW, not two or three) it has been argued by the USA that the targeting, although deliberate, was a mistake, and therefore not a war crime.
But you, KRAPO, continue to suck up and disgorge propaganda here, like the troll that you are. It is a COMMON form of propaganda to use inflammatory headlines, and to put biased information in the first few paragraphs of a story, and place countervailing information near the end, where almost nobody reads. You trying to say that it isn't propaganda is just plain lunacy.
As far as MSF claims about it's hospitals in east Aleppo, I looked through their past claims about Syria and UP UNTIL that story there was no indication at all that they ran or even supported ANY hospitals in east Aleppo. So I can only question the accuracy of that particular statement, and the bias of the organization that would claim retrospective affiliation.
BTW, some of your vi
