Only to die in #Moscow – v2 #Assad

A pyrrhic victory only,
for a few moments, truly
though he may not know it,
his escape will be short-lived,
avoiding the assassin’s bullet…
 
His flight from his capital, Damascus,
under the cover of darkness, lies,
this madman, this unholy tyrant,
the brutal warlord running,
quickly, just in the nick of time…
 
But his protector is no hope for him,
for his days too are numbered,
his fate is self-evidence, prophetic,
escaping the noose in Damascus,
only to die in Moscow…

“One of the main russian propagandists Solovyev suggests
Putin's resignation, blaming the russian leadership for failures at the frontline.”
