No relief for Syrians

When I read the Sept. 19 headline U.S. and Russia to discuss roles in Syria, I thought, “Oh good. Two super powers are going to figure a way give some relief to the Syrian population.”

But further reading revealed that Russia and the United States only want to make sure that their respective war equipment doesn’t encroach on each other. What a pity.
