Good try though to again possibly attempt to cover up any Con unsavoury dealings.

Why would I need to cover up anything for the Tories? You're barking up the wrong tree.

It doesn't matter how Assad was seen prior to the war in Syria, guilt isn't assumed. Benefit of the doubt before the crime is committed and all that. You can't blame people for not knowing something was going to happen. That's not rational.
