27-6-13.-Henry Kissinger, former Secretary of State U.S. during the administrations of various presidents, acknowledged Thursday that the media of this nation lie to say that Syria lives a conflict "between democracy and dictatorship." "The American press described as a conflict between democracy and dictatorship in which the dictator is killing his own people, and therefore must be punished. But that's not what's happening, "said Kissinger Gerald R. School Ford Public Policy at the University of Michigan (north). Kissinger said that "today is a sectarian civil war" and that the result you would like to see in Syria is "a country disintegrated and balkanized with more or less autonomous regions. " No foreign intervention, the former Secretary of State under Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford from 1973 to 1977, provides two possible outcomes: the permanence of Syrian President Bashar Al Assad in power "in a state of war, but without armed confrontation "or the" emergence of a stable federation of various ethnic groups. " Kissinger's remarks come amid complaints against the United States by promoting sectarian strife in Syria and the Middle East to interfere in the internal affairs of nations and support to armed groups seeking to overthrow President Assad. U.S. President Barack Obama has authorized the shipment of arms to Syrian terrorists supported from abroad, further intensifying the conflict in the Arab country. Earlier, former Congressman Ron Paul blamed the U.S. government for the escalating conflict by sending weapons to terrorist groups. Meanwhile, journalist and author Isabel Pisano believes that in Syria the American Executive is leading to division, as it did in other countries. "is responsible for thousands of deaths in South America, the creator of Operation Condor, the inventor of making people disappear. Actually, they rarely criticize their employers, but what I think serious is that again want to divide Syria, "he said. past May, Bashar Al Assad had complained that his country gunmen operate from 29 countries, and that there is foreign interference has become the start trigger factor and the continuation of the crisis in Syria. since mid-March 2011, Syria has been the scene of terrorist attacks against civilians and military in order to overthrow President Assad. These acts of violence have left more than 93,000 people dead, according to estimates by the United Nations. (UN).
