Do you notice this trend? Whenever a pro-Western dictator is forced to leave office, Western media SUDDENLY discovers his corruption and suddenly unearths "evidence" that he has amassed billions upon billions of dollars. Which raises the questions: how come you didn't write about the corruption of Mubarak, Bin Ali, and Salih when they were in the pockets of the US? And in all cases the figures that are bandied about are highly inflated. Finally, did you notice that there are no Western reports about amassed fortunes by Bashshar Al-Asad? I noticed that. I wonder why.
