In reality, both postmodernism and science are driven by skepticism, but they have very different epistemologies and that matters.

The White Helmets are often presented by the western press as a humanitarian search-and-rescue NGO and occasional ‘freedom fighters’ against Assad, however, it has ties to al-Qaeda, Nusra Front and other extremist groups that have occupied parts of Syria for going on six years now. (Rebels which are, incidentally, also backed, funded and trained by western military and intelligence agencies). It is widely believed the White Helmets are a propaganda outfit with terrorist sympathies masquerading as a humanitarian organisation. The White Helmets have so far received $23 million from the US Government, £19.7 million from the UK Government, and €4 million from the Dutch. It also receives material support and training by a variety of other EU Nations.
