That's probably true, I don't actually know too much about this issue, but still... I mean, the article readily shoves a conspiracy theory-styled video in the link at the end, but can't be bothered to show you where it is that shows that The White Helmets are armed, even though they go on about how there are videos about it?

Fake news sites would be proud.

They aren't armed, they're basically volunteer rescue workers. If they were armed, they'd be a rebel group.

Imagine if they won the Nobel Prize - they'd be able to get funding for more ambulances, medical supplies, they could take on more volunteers. The thousands more people they could have saved with a million USD.

The first time I knew of it was looking up The White Helmets and somehow stumbling on that article about how they're an ebul Syrian government destabiliser with links to Al Qaeda.

Wanted to give them the credit of the doubt, figured the video linked might be a video taken on the ground (There're documentaries that are like that, which I imagine, y'know, The White Helmets to be as well), but nope: Just a guy taking screencaps of websites and talking over it, the format of every pseudo conspiracy type person ever apparently. :/

And now I shall have fun reading through all the other stuff they have, apparently following my dad now who does this a lot as well, basically looking up conspiracy theories and laughing at it or something.

That reminds me of the conspiracy supernatural shows that run here in the USA.

It's all about big foot. First it was about finding big foot and proving big foot exists... which they didn't. The new shows about bigfoot are that they've already found bigfoot but now they gotta find him again to kill him. Killing Bigfoot.

They found the bigfoot, but dont want to understand the bigfoot, they just cut straight to exterminting the bigfoot. Saaad.

Why not bring bigfoot to a convention, so he can sign autographs and such?

All this violence isn't right. :v

Indeed they would.

I did find a video, but I'm mildly suspicious of it, given that the first shot to show as evidence of their ties to terrorists was basically showing footage of people who were for ISIS... who, if they were working for The White Helmets, certainly weren't fucking showing it in the video.

Imagine if they won the Nobel Prize - they'd be able to get funding for more ambulances, medical supplies, they could take on more volunteers. The thousands more people they could have saved with a million USD.


And then the conspiracies would be fuelled with nuclear fusion.

Maybe the plane carrying it crashed, and the pilot who was soon to be home and to visit his 3 year old's birthday party died. And the gifts being sent to a Children's hospital for cancer patients were destroyed in the blaze. And the company that made the plane went bankrupt because of the crash, and so the CEO takes to drinking before committing suicide.
