This book, the eight and final one in its series, gives an A-Z summary of the Syrian crisis. I hope it will lead to bigger and better efforts in the future that will help give the Syrian people and those of other Arab countries currently under NATO's cosh the peace and prosperity they richly deserve and for which they have paid such a high price not only in pecuniary terms (a cost of $3 trillion so far and rising for Syria) but in terms of human tragedy, human loss and human suffering we cannot even begin to fathom.
This compendium is an effort not so much to formulate a solution but to help posit what the actual factors driving the mayhem is. Unless I can persuade some more appropriate people or institutions run with this project, I expect to expand on this volume again and again over time. Although other reasons have been posited, Syria has been plunged into its ongoing nightmare primarily so that the goals of NATO, Israel and the Gulf countries may be achieved.
Those other reasons include a number of economic factors: a severe drought, which hurt small farmers and farm laborers a lot and Syrian economic reforms that did not meet NATO's expectations or goals. The mooted economic factors nay have been the dry tinder but they were not the match and nor are they the smoking gun. Without the active, illegal machinations of NATO and its Israeli and Gulf States allies, Syria would not have been landed in the mess it has been landed in.
Although the incredible sacrifices of the men and women of the Syrian Arab Army, together with the 7th cavalry intervention of the Russian air force, stopped NATO's plans of turning their Syrian homeland into another Libya or Iraq, NATO has not backed off but continues to press for conquest by other means and other paths, including federation and "inclusive" governments, which means putting their own puppets into positions of power.
