Even by the horrific standards of Middle Eastern savagery, the mass grave discovered in Syria with more than 100,000 bodies stands out for its hideousness.

In fact, the world has not seen anything like this since the days of Hitler and Stalin.

And this is just one of several such graves, courtesy of the country’s recently ousted barbarian strongman Bashar al-Assad.

Since 2012, Assad has been suspected of having tortured and killed, possibly hundreds of thousands of its own citizens and enemies.

It is a testament to his depravity, following in the footsteps of his father, Hafez al-Assad, who similarly massacred dissidents with abandon.

“We haven’t seen anything like this since the days of the Nazis,” said Stephen Rapp, former US ambassador-at-large for war crimes.

How was Bashar Assad able to get away with it?

Simple: the world to leave him.

He turned a blind eye to his pain, preferring to focus on pet targets like . . . Israel.

These “enlightened” cronies who set up camps on university campuses? They were not protesting against Assad’s killing machine; they wanted to stop Israel.

Democrats like President Biden, Veep Kamala Harris and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were outraged not by Assad’s long-running death factory, but by an imaginary “genocide” that the Jewish state supposedly lead against the Palestinians.

No, it didn’t start with them: Who can forget President Barack Obama’s “red line,” threatening a U.S. military response if Assad deployed chemical weapons against his enemies?

Yet when the Syrian army fired missiles laced with sarin gas into opposition-controlled neighborhoods, killing more than 1,400 civilians, Obama did so. . . Nothing.

In fact, he and then-Secretary of State John Kerry invited Vladimir Putin – asking Russia to help “solve” the crisis (well, end Obama’s embarrassment) coming and going adage he had collected chemicals from Syria.

Moscow had been kicked out of the Middle East decades before; Today, it has become a key ally of Assad and has ruthlessly supported him in the civil war, bombing civilians (especially hospitals) with abandon.

Without any noise on American campuses, nor at the United Nations, the International Criminal Court, etc.

Elsewhere in Syria, Ankara is even planning a new attack on the Kurds – a completely stateless people who survive despite decades of oppression at the hands of the leaders of not only Turkey and Syria, but also the Iran, Iraq and even ISIS.

Meanwhile, the sadistic Kim family in North Korea is notorious for mass killings and starvation. millions; terrorists and despots have killed hundreds of thousands more in Africa and Asia.

Yet the only nation that sacrifices its soldiers for defeat The savages of the Middle East – Israel – somehow end up becoming the one headlined by much of the left, the UN and the ICC, as a “ war criminal.”

Assad’s mass graves are a reminder not only of the evil that still roams the world, but also of the perverse hypocrisy of all the so-called furious moralizers of a “genocide” who doesn’t exist.
