Sudan President Omar Bashir might be a controversial leader among his own people and abroad, but he maintained a thin-line relation between his country and Syria throughout the current US-led ‘War of Terror’ on the Syrian people.
The Sudanese embassy remained open in Damascus, as well as the Syrian mission in Khartoum, a large Syrian community fled to Sudan seeking shelter from US-sponsored terrorist suicide bombing and indiscriminate shelling of neighborhoods.
The media office at the Syrian Presidency announced on Wednesday that Mrs. Asmaa al-Assad began the initial stage of treatment of a malignant breast tumor which was discovered in its early stage.
'Assad forces shell a peaceful protest with tanks killing one and wounding two more', 'Assad fighter jets are bombing civilian and residential cities', 'Assad tanks shelling indiscriminately into so & so town', 'Assad Shabeeha brutally oppressed the peaceful protesters calling for freedom'... etc.
Each western mainstream media news bulletin should have a bit on Syria, and each bit should contain one of the above statements plus how Syria's allies, namely Russia & Iran, are blocking the 'international community' response, but for 20 consecutive months have you ever thought that this narrative might be not quite right for any of the following reasons:
Who are 'Assad forces'?
What are their numbers?
Where do they live?
From where they came?
Where is the Syrian Army?
Why the Syrian people aren't able to stop these 'forces' till now?
How many are the 'freedom fighters'?
Why most of the focus on Syria? What happened to elsewhere like Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq... etc.?
...
Of course you didn't ask yourself any of the above questions otherwise you will figure out you were fooled all this time and stop believing the systematically, well organized, synchronized news doses on Syria by a large group of western mainstream media owned by just a few corporations, owned by a smaller few of persons.
The Egyptian 'revolution' 'worked out' when the Egyptian Army didn't take sides and later asked the former president Hosni Mubarak to step aside after its former chief of staff paid a visit to USA.
The Tunisian 'revolution' 'worked out' when the former president's own security tricked him and send him on a plane then asked him not to return back.
The Yemeni 'revolution' 'worked out' after foreign players agreed on replacing the first man with his own deputy and the army split into 2 halves.
The Libyan 'revolution' 'worked out' after NATO invaded the country and leveled whole cities, killed over 60,000 Libyan civilians (UN figure, true number will never be known) and the guy didn't have a real army or even security to defend the country, yet he fought back with his people, the Libyans for more than 6 months.
The Syrian 'revolution' didn't work out for over 20 months, why is that? What is the Army, Police & Security forces doing to stop against 'Assad forces'?
The explanation is quite simple: There is no 'Assad forces', just like there were no 'Gaddafi Brigades', there is only the Syrian Army, the Syrian Police & Security forces and there is the people from where these soldiers come from.
If you didn't know, Syria has a mandatory 18 months army service for young men reaching 18 years old if not studying or supporting their parents either parent or both. Conscripts after enrolling for the compulsory service are distributed among the different brigades of the Syrian Arab Army and the Security Forces, including the police force itself. While there are volunteers who are promoted into ranks, the majority are conscripts who serve their term and leave back to civilian lives, remaining in reserves till a certain age and reserves are only called when the country is under invasion. So the Syrian Army, in other words, is comprised of the vast majority of conscripts conducting their military service then leaving, like so many countries in the world, therefore, there's no such thing as 'Assad Forces', which leads us to the second question: If there's no 'Assad Forces', who are the Syrian Army, Policemen and Security fighting?
Hillary Clinton knows how to answer this question, listen to what her former administration did in Afghanistan & think about something I call ToDs (Terrorists on Demand):
That's Afghanistan, then in order to reduce the numbers of US troops in Afghanistan, especially after most of NATO member states either pulled their troops out completely or largely, you need to reduce the numbers of who they're fighting, in this case: Taliban and Al Qaeda. And in order to reduce the number of Taliban - a mainly Afghanistan students movement turned violent for reasons the CIA knows best, and Al Qaeda which is mainly Arab and other brainwashed Muslims from outside Afghanistan, you need to take them somewhere else..! Yup, you figured it out by yourself, Libya.. With a touch of re-branding by some PR companies in the USA they became 'Freedom Fighters', and now they're Libyans as well..!!!!
And after Gaddafi was killed by former US ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens troops whom killed Christopher Stevens later on, there's a need to move these 'Freedom Fighters' somewhere else, and there's always a dream of the USA since the early 1950s to control Syria, so why not? If it worked in Libya why it won't work in Syria? So they are now known as the 'Freedom Fighters of Syria', wait.. that didn't work, Syrians are much knowledgeable of consumed US products, ok call them Syrian Rebels.. make them wear uniforms and you can call them a 'Free Syrian Army' at the same time, so now you have rebels and a free army.
Now their 'strategical' thinking started to pay out, but there's a still small problem that needs to be addressed: What about the almost 500,000 conscripts in the Syrian Arab Army, Police & Security?! And one of their smartest came up with an idea to experiment on the Sheeple, the audience of western mainstream media, let's call those almost 500,000 troops: Assad Forces & Shabeeha (the ghostly militia)..
The experiment worked and the Sheeple not only bought this 'Assad Forces' thing, they liked it and many started campaigning against these 'Assad Forces' in favor of the 'Free Army' & 'Rebels' formerly known as 'Freedom Fighters' and before that they were known as 'Al Qaeda'.
What about reality and what's really going on there in Syria? Syrian media shows foreigners being killed while fighting the Syrian Army and security forces, it also shows funerals of army martyrs held in their cities and how the Syrian people are reacting (turn cc on for English subtitles - better watch it on YouTube):
Part of the Funeral of Hero Martyr Staff Brigadier Salim Attieh - Tartous Syria
If they call us 'Shabeeha' so well be it, we're Shabeeha forever if this upsets them.
There's a need now to shut down the Syrian media because Syrian media started showing more and more of such reports and because Syrian based media has started to deface NATO aligned media like in the series Misleading Media on Syria - Shaping Public Opinion to get an idea: example 1, example 2 & example 3, for instance.
Western leaders have no shame left and they don't have a problem lying direct in the face knowing they're lying and knowing that the people know they're lying but knowing as well that they've already brainwashed the masses into the cause, remember now the masses are campaigning for 'Al Qaeda' fighters in Syria, so the western leaders have no problem at all in banning Syrian based media even if it's against free speech they're themselves claiming they support in Syria and that's why this whole madness and killing is about!!
Syrians however don't care about what western mainstream media show, what they really care is preserving their own country whatever they have to sacrifice and they continue supporting their army against the NATO imposed fighters:
Syrians adoring their army
One of the massive rallies in support of president Bashar Assad in Damascus
Damascus residents packing the main square in support of president Bashar Assad
Aleppo residents packing Saadallah Jabri square in support of president Bashar Assad
I know if you're a devoted follower of FoxNews, CNN, BBC, CBS, ABC or whatever mainstream media channel you follow the above might cause a shock for you, but trust me, this shock is for the better, you'll thank me when the drones start chasing citizens in western cities based on face recognition technology.
They fool you, they keep fooling you & they enjoy fooling you, not because they're smart, it's because you're foolable
Feeling Boiling with Syria's First Lady's Louboutin Shoes?
Media aligned with NATO worked hard over the past 15 months plus to come up with any piece of information that would harm the Syrian state by any way, whether that is at the political, community, security, military, officials personal level or any level they can tangle the feelings of the Sheeple and direct them in the propaganda war they waged against this country, not for anything else except this small Middle Eastern state dared tell the United States of America NO in its face. Not only saying NO to the super power when it was in its heights of ego, but dared working hard to fail any US hegemony plans in the region, if not affecting the worldwide New World Order altogether.
Can you imagine that in part of the ongoing planning and plotting to make happen the criminal thought of a one government world that would rule the entire human race under the guise of using slogans that totally are opposite to this daemonic goal, slogans like: Spreading Democracy, Promoting Free Speech and Securing Human Rights; can you imagine that the Syrian first lady's 'shoes' were part of their master plan?!
Don't be surprised, we as Syrians have witnessed all kinds of low propaganda from targeting all our national symbols from our flag in an attempt to replace it with another one, to targeting the Syrian map by showing maps with divided ethnic based tiny states, targeting the Syrian army by having terrorists posing in its uniform and committing crimes to frame it in unverifiable youtube video clips, all other low propaganda that targeted the head of the Syrian state with all his family members, not ending with his wife of course, even her shoes.
Based on the funny story of fake Syrian president's personal emails leaked and out of discoveries of western intelligence agencies combined their efforts to discover the shopping habits of the Syrian first lady from again her personal emails. We won't discuss the email story itself because having it hosted at a small commercial hosting company in Dubai while the Syrian presidential palace has its own servers and the Syrian Information Society, a public corporation owned by the Syrian government and headed once by the Syrian president himself, can offer much more secure and realistic option to host the Syrian first family's personal emails.. But what we will discuss is the craze of the yellow western media to serve the only goal: demonize the Syrian state's head in order to fail the state to further destroy it, install puppet regimes in place to serve the ultimate goal: New World Order.
In the Guardian article mentioned above there's a cheap way in demonizing the Syrian first family by trying to imply to the readers that an owner of a VIP brand worldwide would have 'his career ended' just because one of its pair of shoes was bought by the Syrian first lady! Just in case Asma Al Assad did buy that pair of shoes from this brand.
Go through the article and sense the ugly language of one of the UK's dirtiest newspapers known for its pro-NATO wars.
Now keep in mind that the UK is not having its very best economical times, and the Queen is supporting an austerity measures.
If however you did get appalled by the 'crime' the Syrian first lady committed in buying a pair of shoes, again if this story had any bases, maybe you should read the following article, where it's not a problem that the UK's crown prince's son's wife that she buys from an expensive brand a dress from Alexander McQueen worth £1,195, it's the problem that Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton has wore a dress that was wore before by another celebrity, Kim Kardashian in New York last year.
Behold, a revelation has been uncovered: Assad has advisers.
For years we were fed by all western media (NATO and Friends) that the Syrian 'Regime' first is a regime and not a government and second it's a dictatorship, a one man show, a person who takes decisions by self and enforces its application on all state officials thus people.
Didn't seem to be the case especially after the current events unveiled the thick veil so many in the West cover their eyes with when looking at the MENA region. Now there's an urge to look back at those using such terminology to see whether they themselves understand the terms they use?
A Dictator: Is generally known to be a leader of a country who 'dictates' his vision and orders on his subordinates.
A Regime: The term itself is widely being used to demonize a government that is not obliging to orders by the USA or whoever supports the mainstream media in order to justify attacking it.
Bashar Al Assad is nothing near a dictator, how? Let's see..
A hacker claims to have breached the Syrian 'presidential' email system, and as many of you don't know, the presidential establishment in Syria is combined of a minister, advisers, office (bureau) manager, secretariat divisions as well as the guards. That seems to be very organized, but not our story here, this hacker who breached the email system of the Syrian presidential palace and put his hands on secret email correspondences that took place between the president office different staff came to a conclusion that president Assad before his interview with ABC Walters in Damascus quote "About 10 days before the interview, Sheherazad Jaafari - a press attache at the Syrian mission to the United Nations - sent a long email to former Al Jazeera journalist Luna Chebel, who now works in Assad's bureau. She also sent the email to an aide of Shaaban's. Jaafari, who was involved in arranging the interview with Walters, also happens to be the daughter of the Syrian ambassador to the UN, Dr. Bashar Jaafari."
quote: "Jaafari Jr. wrote: "The major points and dimensions that have been mentioned a lot in the American media are: The idea of violence has been one of the major subjects brought up in every article. They use the phrases 'The Syrian government is killing its own people,' 'Tanks have been used in many cities,' 'Airplanes have been used to suppress the peaceful demonstrations,' and 'Security forces are criminals and bloody.'""
And goes on.. What the west media is trying to show is the president of Syria is weak, what they fail to show is the fact that president Assad did his interview without referring to notes, fluently in English, straightforwardly answering questions, some of which were improvised! Furthermore, what we can get out of this claimed 'email leak':
Syrian government is nothing as we were meant to understand: it consists of coherent establishments and apparatuses all constitutional and all are like most western 'democracies' if not exceeding many of them.
Advisers do their job in advising without fear of repression, send notes openely and straightforwardly.
So many are involved in policy making in Syria including: Officials, Advisors, Media specialists, University professors, Surveyors, and Allies.
Assad advisers and government officials are doing one heck of a job assisting him in maintaining the sovereignty of the country in the face of a vicious media and PR campaign waged against Syria for over about 11 months now and more before (2000, 2003, 2005, 2006..), and in face of NATO state members and its allies, keeping in mind the size of Syria and its limited resources vs its foes. On the other hand, the advisers of world leading countries such as the USA, have driven their countries in crazy adventures abroad criminalizing their country in killing millions of innocent civilians under the guise of 'protecting them' and 'spreading democracy', and collapsing the country's economy and the welfare of own people!.
Brilliance is not an exception in Syrians, it runs in the blood of Syrians. Jaafari and his 'daughter' example.
3 ladies involved in one hacking breach (which by itself is illegal and immoral) which means the Assad is more modernized than most leaders out there and appreciates women role and don't use them for media polishing, like so many others do. Not to mention other roles women take in Syria even in the current government they lead ministries like the minister of tourism (Lamya Assi) and ministry's departments of countless examples.
All correspondences have a high level language of respect and politeness, they're short and direct to the points and can only come out of educated, civilized and diplomatic officials. Unlike the Syrian opposition figures abroad embedded by NATO countries and imposed on Syrians as future leaders!
Assad during the interview with Walters, as well as all other interviews never had a paper and was answering questions directly even using terms referred to by advisors.
The Assad-opponent camp on the other side are either very silly, stupid or thinking the public are silly or stupid and can be manipulated like before, especially when it comes to what they feed mainstream media and how they control it and notably in the USA, UK, France and some Arab 'Gulfies'
Now compare what we learned about Syria and its ruling system with what is there in the USA for example, don't compare it with the UK or should we call it UQ since they didn't have a K for a decades and a Q was there before I was even born, in addition to having a monarchy in the first place whether it has any role in ruling or just a parasite on the account of UQ (UK) tax payers.
A smarter than usual opponent would hint to how Assad came to office as so many tend to do, but if this smarter than usual opponent was at least smarter than ordinary, then would find that Bashar Al Assad wasn't elected as the president of Syria back in 2000, rather he was selected to be a president of Syria by a ruling apparatus that not only got the consent of Syrian people and the Syrian People's Assembly (Parliament) and acceptance by the Army and Security, it also got the consent of worldwide leaders; and we shouldn't miss a very important point that there was no contender to him then, after his first term and even till now after almost 11 months of rioting not a single person came out and said he can be par with president Assad in leadership, politics understanding or handling a complicated country like Syria. Keeping in mind that by constitution a president in Syria term is 7 years and 2 consequtive presidencies are 14 years which in the case of president Assad we should witness a presidential campaign in the year 2014, as what the constitution of Syria says.
So, what kind of a 'dictator' who has advisers supporting him in his job, a government that is intact over 11 months of riots and amidst a huge manipulation of facts by NATO and allies mainstream media, his country's army is intact and remarkably very loyal, his ambassadors worldwide never saw a single defection not even at a 3rd secretary level despite huge pressures, and over all of that enjoys the support of the vast majority of his people?
or in another square:
Or we should believe those analyst in the Pentagon who lied at us in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and almost everywhere and when before and not believe the above millions?
Huffington Post posted an article titled: Asma Assad, Wife Of Bashar Assad, Speaks Out, as if she didn't speak before and then clearly indicates that this is a 'Rare Public Statement', we will see how rare and why NATO mass media is twisting facts in a comment we posted to the same article online and we quote here:
No clue from where you get your news, but I think the Syrian first lady appeared in public during the past 11 months in Syria much more than the US first lady since her husband took office in the USA, as a start.. Maybe not a press interview or an email to a newspaper, but how many first ladies do such a thing?
As for the 'poor timing', all timings are poor if you like or rich if you want, depends on your personal opinion which doesn't matter during war times.
Shelling of Homs is being a fact in NATO and allies media like yourselves, but by whom? You directly state that it was by government forces, I'd very much would like to see your evidence and how you reached to that conclusion when there's as all your media say: Defection in the Syrian Army, so it means that defected soldiers wearing government uniforms using artillery and tanks they took with them when defecting! so it's more likely that they might be those shelling the city and since you can't prove it I wonder how you state it as a fact?!
War propaganda is a very sophisticated psychological science and especially when you are targeting people of the oldest civilization who taught the world how to write the alphabet, I was expecting much more hard work by you when warmongering so you don't expose yourselves so obviously, look again at the article above and look right beneath it to the picture of the 1st lady appearing in public and listening to her husband's speech in public less than 1 month before this date!
Your strategy might still work with masses who believed that Iraq had Weapons of Mass Destruction WMDs back in 2003 to justify the invasion and destruction of Iraq and slaughtering over a million Iraqi in order to spread 'democracy' there, the same 'democracy' your OWS 'Occupy Wall Street' movement much needs; or the fantasy of 11 cavemen planning in a Tora Bora cave how to take down two major towers in thousands of miles away avoiding all defence technology the world's number one superpower has and succeeding in taking the two towers down! Not only that, a third tower decides to go down in solidarity with its mates! just to again justify the invasion, destruction of Afghanistan and slaughtering of thousands of Afghani civilians in order to spread 'democracy' in their tribal country; or the undoubted mass media information that Gaddafi, the former ruler of Libya was 'planning' to kill 5,000 civilians in Benghazi so you decided to save them from Gaddafi so you can get to kill them along with over a 125,000 more to justify the invasion and destruction of Libya and get your hands on its vast reserves of oil and gas. Not to mention Somalia and the famine there caused because of the USA siege on the country and inciting conflicts between warlords there..
Yet, there you go again, but wait.. Why this time it's different? Why until now NATO hasn't moved in directly like it did elsewhere? Didn't all your media resemble Syria to Libya continuously? And now without any prior notice your media discovers Syria is not like Libya? If they tell you Syria is not rich with oil and gas like Libya, well that might be true, but there's countries who volunteered to cover the cost, so why didn't NATO interfere in Syria? There's only one reason: the potential danger on israel, and israel is what moves US politicians who mentions it continuously with every speech especially during election times. There's an imminent danger on israel should Syria be directly attacked by NATO, Syria's army is still intact, it even carried out huge drills a couple of months ago, it has missiles that one of them was tested and launched from a Syrian location and landed in Iranian desert with the Iranian cooperation hitting its presumed target with a 100% accuracy which US 'smart bombs' doesn't have. So why messing with Syria directly? Let's tell the public opinion that the president there is 'killing his own people', 'shelling peaceful protesters' by tanks, and use this new 'lie' to justify 'supporting the aspiration of Syrians by all means' to 'topple their own regime' without having to deal with a regional war.
"Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me"; how about keep fooling me? Isn't it because you are so 'foolable'?!
سيلقي الرئيس بشار الأسد اليوم خطاباً يتطرق للأوضاع الداخلية وأوضاع المنطقة حسب ما صرحت به وكالة سانا السورية الرسمية للأنباء، والخطاب المرتقب مفصلي وهام بالتأكيد في هذه المرحلة بالذات وبالأخص بعد تفجيرات الأخوان المسلمين الانتحارية الإرهابية في دمشق مؤخراً بمسمياتهم المختلفة (أخوان - قاعدة - سلفيين - جند الشام - فتح الإسلام...)، ولكن كما عودونا أعداء سورية سنحاول استقراء ردود الفعل الجاهزة والمعلبة، والتي غالباً ستبدأ بالظهور بعد أول 5 دقائق من الخطاب.
الخارجية الأميركية ورداً على خطاب الرئيس الأسد: "الخطاب غير كافي وندعوا الرئيس للتنحي".
وزارة الدفاع الأميركية: "نطالب الرئيس الأسد بالتنحي وتسليم السلطة ونحذر المسلحين من تسليم أسلحتهم".
وزير خارجية فرنسا: "على الرئيس السوري التنحي بغض النظر عن الخطاب".
الحكومة التركية: "لقد حذرنا الرئيس السوري والآن عليه التنحي".
رئيس اللجنة الوزارية في جامعة بعض العرب الخاصة بسورية: "يجب على القيادة السورية عدم اللف والدوران وتسليم السلطة ديمقراطياً".
إعلامياً:
قناة الجزيرة تقوم بقطع البث المباشر بعد أول 5 دقائق فقط وتستضيف محلل سياسي: "الخطاب متأخر وهذا النظام لا يعرف سوى القتل والتدمير والاعتقالات ويجب عليه الرحيل".
قناة الجزيرة أيضاً في اتصال مباشر وأيضاً بعد أول 5 دقائق من بدء الخطاب الذي سيكون على الأغلب من مدرج جامعة دمشق: "ومعنا اتصال هاتفي مباشر مع عضو تنسيقية دمشق السيد أبو محمد المدرجي، سيد أبو محمد ما رد فعل الشارع السوري على خطاب الأسد؟ أبو محمد المدرجي: الشعب بكامله رفض الخطاب والملايين تملأ الشوارع الآن تنديداً بالخطاب، وهناك الآن مظاهرة من 500 ألف شخص بمدينة إبطع وأخرى من 200 ألف شخص في قرية كفر نبل، ووصلنا الآن أن شبيحة النظام تطلق النار بكثافة وبشكل عشوائي والدبابات تقصف مظاهرة عظمى من حوالي 700 ألف متظاهر سلمي في دير بعلبة في حمص وحتى الآن وردنا مقتل شخصين في عامودا في محافظة الحسكة جراء القصف العشوائي في دير بعلبة في حمص.."
قناة العربية تبث الخطاب كاملاً وتستضيف محلل سياسي شعلة في الذكاء: "ما رأيك بما جاء في خطاب الأسد؟ المحلل: هذا الخطاب مفبرك وغير مباشر وهو مسجل وإذا لاحظنا كيف استطاع التلفزيون السوري بث الخطاب مباشرة إذا حسبنا المسافة من هيئة الإذاعة والتلفزيون السوري في ساحة الأمويين ومدرج جامعة دمشق فعلى الأقل يحتاج المرء حوالي ربع ساعة ذهاب وربع ساعة عودة وربع ساعة مونتاج، ولاحظنا الارتباك الواضح في قيادة هذا النظام وعليهم أن يرحلوا فوراً"؟!
قناة فرنسا 24: "وصلنا الآن خبر عاجل أن وزير الخارجية السورية وليد المعلم قدم استقالته احتجاجاً على القمع الدموي للنظام ونستضيف في الاستديو المعارض السوري أكثم نعيسة للتعليق على الخطاب واستقالة وزير الخارجية.. المعارض: هذا النظام اتبع سياسة الحل الأمني وعليه منذ البدء أن يقوم بإصلاحات جذرية والآن عليه الرحيل وبالنسبة للوزير المعلم فهو رجل ذكي ويعرف أن مستقبله مع النظام غير مضمون ونرحب به في صفوف المعارضة السورية كونه مكسباً كبيراً... تقاطعه المذيعة: عفواً ولكن وردنا تصحيح، الوزير المعلم موجود في مدرج الجامعة وهو حضر الخطاب والظاهر أنه لم يستقيل والاستقالة كانت من موظف استقبال سابق في فندق سفير حمص، ما تعليقكم؟ المعارض: عرفنا أن الوزير المعلم غير مدرك لحقيقة الوضع وهو لا يعرف كيف يقرأ الواقع السياسي وأساساً هو جزء لا يتجزأ من النظام الأمني..!!
قناة السي إن إن: "من الواضح أن الرئيس السوري قد قام بتشذيب شاربيه وهو دليل على أنه سيقوم بتغييرات كبيرة ما، وبالنسبة للون البدلة الرسمية فقد اختار اللون الأزرق وهو دليل على عزلته الدولية..." روسيا اليوم: تعرض مقتطفات من الخطاب وعلى جانب الشاشة بإطار (كادر) أكبر صور من مظاهرات وأصوات عالية بالوقت نفسه فلا يستطيع أحد سماع الخطاب ولا يستطيع أحد معرفة أين ومتى وماذا يجري بالإطار الجانبي! وبعدها اتصال عبر سكايب مع محلل عالمي مشهور لمعرفة رأيه فيجيب: "سورية تخوض معركة كسر عظم مع قوى الشر العالمية متمثلة بالناتو وعملاء الناتو بالمنطقة والخطاب جاء واصفاً للمرحلة بالضبط وخطة طريق للمستقبل وتقوم القيادة السورية بعمل أقصى جهدها لمعالجة الوضع.."وطبعاً إطار ثاني وأصوات عالية وصور من أعمال شغب.. بعد 5 دقائق مذيع جديد ولقاء جديد: "ومعنا المحلل الاستراتيجي إيفان شراخوف (ما حدا سمع فيه قبل) من معهد ضراطسكايا الاستشراقي (أكيد ما حدا سمع فيه) وسؤال عن الخطاب وردود الفعل، ولا ننسى الإطار الإضافي وصور أعمال شغب وأصوات عالية بالوقت نفسه، يجيب شراخوف: الدولة السورية أثبتت فشلها، والنظام غير قادر على ضبط الحدود ويحتج بالجماعات المسلحة، صحيح أن كل الغرب قد أقر بوجودها، ولكن لا أدري لماذا يصر النظام في سورية على وجودها، الوقت قد فات وعليه (على النظام السوري يعني) أن يفكر بالتنحي.." قناة الحريري الولد المنسية في لبنان: طبعاً لم تبث الخطاب، ولم يطلع أحد من جمهورها على ما جاء فيه وباتصال مع ماتازوف من روسيا الذي يحلل: "الخطاب وضع النقاط على الحروف، المذيع مقاطع: تقول أن الخطاب لم يضع النقاط على الحروف، وننتقل إلى شاهد العيان أبو سامر الإبطعي يحدثنا من إبطع، كيف هو الحال لديكم رداً على خطاب الأسد.. يجيب الإبطعي: شعوب إبطع وداعل ترفض الخطاب وكتائب الأسد تقوم الآن بمسح مدينة درعا من على الوجود" وطبعاً هذا في أول 5 دقائق من بدء الخطاب.!
وتستمر المهزلة، ولا أحد يقرأ ما جاء في الخطاب ولا أحد يعرف حدوده أين تبدأ وأين تنتهي وما يستطيع أن ينصح به وما يعتبر تدخلاً بالشؤون الداخلية لدولة ذات سيادة وشعب لا يقبل تدخل الآخرين بشؤونه الداخلية.
They said it's a 'Popular Spontaneous Uprising' in Syria, it wasn't planned for, and people took to the streets influenced by the 'Arab Spring' wave.
Let's see, first of all, the 'Arab Spring' wave achievements in the countries that witnessed the 'popular spontaneous uprisings':
1) Tunisia: It was said that a vegetable cart vendor 'Bu Azizi' was slapped by a police officer and his cart was crushed because it was illegal, as his dignity was hurt and his only source of income was no more he lit himself and died later. His story was spread like nothing all over the country in a 'police state' that such news stay under thick layers of fear and brutal security responses, resulting in few demonstrations in major cities, the government decided not to respond harshly except for very limited individual cases, but the riots spread, the president Zain el Abdin Ben Ali was tricked to travel by plane to find himself ousted by a coup d'etat led by the security apparatus, it's worth mentioning that the former president Mr. Ben Ali was chosen from the same apparatus by the Italian intelligence during a NATO intelligence heads meetings to replace aging president then Burqaiba. So it's a coup from within the same force the president came from, and not a successful popular uprising.
2) Egypt: Similar to above and without getting too much into details, the success in ousting former president Hosni Mubarak was only after this visit by Egyptian Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Sami Anan to the Pentagon, in USA, few days before (read info about the visit). It's worth mentioning that former president Mubarak came from the ranks of the Egyptian army and was removed by his friends, who surprisingly are in control of Egypt ruling with the name of SCAF.
3) Libya: Nobody can claim that former Libyan leader Moammer Gaddafi was a popular figure among any national or international alliance, especially after 42 years in power and preparing his son Saiful Islam for succession. It's well known that in 2003 he made a huge shift in alliance from Leftists to Rightists and thought he made the right thing with 'trusted' new allies, he also dissolved the country's army, kept unorganized groups of them and didn't do much in upgrading their weapons nor their capabilities, yet this same army fought over 6 months a coalition of NATO and friends whom succeeded in destroying the country, killing scores of civilians, in tens of thousands, of course injuring so much more, whom were supposed to be protected from Gaddafi and of course barbarically killing Gaddafi instead of the new 'Democracy' bringing him to justice. It's worth mentioning that late Gaddafi came from the ranks of the army in a military coup and his army split at the beginning of events, terrorists airlifted from Afghanistan to fight him as well by NATO airplanes and they were trained and armed in Benghazi city, wait.. NATO has a command over terrorists in Afghanistan?! That's absurd, USA is fighting those terrorists there, it invaded Afghanistan because they were harboring the guy who masterminded the 9/11 attacks and was leading those terrorists, how can NATO bring those same terrorists overseas and fight under its command?!!! Well, that's another story, we'll keep it to the 'conspiracy theory' guys who think that 9/11 was an inside job. So it was a foreign invasion with lots of complications that led to the ousting of the leader and replace him with a puppet regime and it was not a popular uprising.
4) Yemen: If there's a determined people who deserve to be called 'peaceful protesters' it'll be the Yemenis who for months gathered in millions demanding peacefully the ousting of their 3 decades leader president Ali Abdallah Saleh, in spite their army was split and despite the killings of protesters by "nobody knows who", the people wanted a change. Ok, how did the change come? By a political initiative from the Gulf Cooperation Council, the GCC, and the president was changed. It's worth mentioning that president Saleh came from the ranks of the army and the major threat to his presidency was a defection by a head of a big Republican Guards brigade! So? Successful popular uprising?
5) Bahrain: Mute.
6) Syria: The mother of all civilizations and the mother of all 'revolutions' and the mother of all setbacks that the 'Arab Spring' faced and rendered 'DEFACED'. The NATO aligned media claims that few children wrote anti-government gravity on the walls of their school in an impoverished southern 'border' city, Daraa, those children were then caught instantly by a security apparatus, 'the Political Security Section', and the head of this section branch in Daraa 'personally' tortured those children to the extent of removing their fingernails.. How horrific, well, you can search for those children names and pictures on the internet by yourself, but worth noting that the person framed here is a distant relative to the Syrian president Mr. Assad. Then an MP at the Syrian's People Assembly (the Parliament), Mr. Youssef Abu Romieh, complained in a closed session about this incident and described what happened in his home town in front of all other members, surprisingly enough, the close session and the words of this MP were caught on a video filmed by another MP on his mobile (rumors say it's MP Mohammad Habash, an outspoken critic of the govt and people say he's very close to the ideology of the criminal Muslim Brotherhood terrorist organization in Syria), the People's Assembly decides to refer the case to the committee in charge of Law, Security and Justice in the Parliament and to refer the case to the president, who in turn immediately suspended the head of the security apparatus (his distant relative), replaced the governor of the whole province and asked the minister of interior to form an independent investigation committee to report directly to him the findings and hold any person committing a crime accountable, whomever he was.
But.. surprisingly, riots started in the city, and to ask for justice to be immediately implied the Court House in Daraa was burned down, the building of the state building was set on fire, police stations... weapons appeared in the streets, army posts attacked and suddenly a mess, police and army officers injured as well as protesters by 'nobody knows who' sniper shots, and chaos, anarchy and whatever you like spread all over the city. The government in its duties to refrain order and stability to the country deployed more police forces to be attacked by 'mysterious armed gangs' coming from nowhere, not really nowhere since Daraa is on the borders with Jordan in the south of Syria, and things got out of the control of police, and army was asked to assist. Strict orders were given by the president and were publicly distributed that no weapons used in responding to riots, but then the police and army were taking heavy casualties, and media was presence, exaggerating stories and only broadcasting casualties among civilians claiming they were killed by the army without evidence of course, and when it had no choice but to report army casualties it started claiming that the soldiers were killed by security officers for refusing to shoot at protesters...! As much as this is absurd especially for those who served in the army because it's impossible for a soldier in any army on the plant to see his colleague being killed by a security officer and that he might be next if he doesn't shoot at his own people and not killing that security officer immediately.. If you never served in the army ask someone who did about army mates. Yet, the propaganda media continued to use this same ill method and till date despite thousands of videos shown of protests and army tanks couldn't show a single army tank actually targeting a single protest and killing a single protester.
Now, back to the 'Popular Spontaneous Uprisings', armed groups were well trained and snipers knew exactly who to target in Syria, starting from Daraa, the border city with Jordan, to Banyas & Tal Kalakh, two border cities with Lebanon to Jisr Al Shoghour, a border city with Turkey, to Bu Kamal, a border city with Iraq.. The same stories and the same sick claims, and each news station quoting another news station quoting vague Human Rights groups especially a London based one under the name of SOHR, then even while showing armed terrorists sneaking inside the country from Lebanon (they call them Army Defectors - BBC reporting) and from Turkey (Al Jazeera Reporting) and elsewhere, even with all that proof by the same news station they insist that all the riots are 'peaceful protesters' against an army shelling them indiscriminately with tanks (never shown a single proof, remember)..
The extent of plotting and orchestration of the Syrian 'popular spontaneous uprising' in Syria goes beyond imagination and to very silly details such as the existence of highly sophisticated satellite broadcasting devices, highly advanced cell phones and a Shadow Internet (USA Shadow Internet For Rioters) all the way down to choosing slogans, finding sparking figures like in the case of Tunisian Bu Azizi to claim he or she ignited the whole uprising, to naming of Fridays and normal days that witness protests, to choosing the way protesters dance during their protests!!!! Stupidly enough, the plotters of the 'Arab Spring' had to improvise in Syria after all their plans failed and since they were not familiar with the culture of Syrian communities and because the plots are rumored to be masterminded by a Jewish official in the US State Dept (Jeffery Feltman, Asst Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs), instead of using local culture dances he trained them to perform a Jewish dance, compare:
The Syrian Traditional Dance (Debka), watch dancers in this song video clip:
Pro-government protesters:
The Jewish Dance (Hasidic):
Now watch Syrian Anti-government protesters (Feltman's Rioters):
As usual and for over 10 months, Syria is the focus of one of the fierce media distortion and propaganda campaigns in the world, orchestrated by the CIA & ran by a selected news houses all linked somehow with NATO & its evil plans of colonizing and dominating the world.
Our post is not an official documentary, it's not results of any fact-finding missions and it's not linked to any governmental or NGO, we are just trying to lay out our observations and it's up to the reader to apply logic, analysis and figure out what's the reality behind events. Our observations are for you to challenge.
16 December 2011: • State Media confirmed no deaths today due to protests anywhere in the country. Western media claimed 14 were killed as a result of crackdown on 'peaceful protesters' based on 'eye witnesses' reports over phone calls and SOHR (A one man kiosk supposed to be the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights) . No evidence shown. "SANA's Article"
• Aljazeera pan Arabian satellite news channel showed a protest & claimed to be from a downtown square known for its famous Clock Tower in the city of Homs, in the center of Syria. the shown Clock Tower is about half the size of the real one, no surrounding palm trees like the case of the real one & buildings very close to the tower unlike the real one! Then rioters' propagandists after their claims were busted came up with another argument that they have created this miniature clock in solidarity with the original one in Homs, although the original one doesn't witness any riots or crackdowns as they say, and the riots are only concentrated in two neighborhoods of slums: Baba Amro & Bab Sibaa. The worst part is that the same protest was shown to be taking place in Al Qamishli city to the far north east of Syria & also in Aleppo in the north of Syria along with the first one
• An 'eye witness' caller on the same channel says that a 'peaceful activist' died when a "mine planted by the government at the entrance of his villa exploded when he stepped over it", while official news agency, SANA, announced the day before that the same person was killed when an explosive device he was planting exploded prematurely in a mountain small city near Damascus, 3 of his associates were injured and arrested.
• An 'eye witness' on Aljazeera under the name of Ahmad Alshaikh claimed that Brigadier Salman Alawaji was killed in the city of Qussair near Homs. The same brigadier denied his own death in an interview with state tv, & that's not the first time he's been declared dead, as he added. "Read SANA's Article"
• BBC Arabic claimed that an anti-government protest of 200,000 took to the streets of Homs city, with no evidence except sourcing again the London based human rights observatory SOHR. "Go to the article on BBC Arabic"
• Aljazeera insists on the 'peaceful' nature of the 'protests' in Syria in contrary to all western media reports of armed gangs, confessions, western officials' statements and even Aljazeera's own documentary showing terrorists sneaking across the borders with Turkey and shooting at an army post! "Watch Video"
Above is just a part of today's collection of observations, we might update it later after reviewing other coverages of Syria riots.
Turkey up to its ears in killing Syrians, over 40 Turkish officers arrested inside Syria were among a big group of terrorists imported from Libya recently. News leaked that some negotiations are being conducted to exchange them with terrorists based in Turkey like the case with Hussain Harmoush a runaway officer who was handed to Syria in exchange with 2 Turkish officers arrested in Syria.
Turkish officials gone mad because all their efforts in removing Syrian president failed miserably, they used and trying to use all their cards starting with training terrorists, facilitating their movements, supplying logistics, weapons and finance, to threatening with sanctions to literally shouting threats in media, trying to push Kurdish ethnic minorities inside Syria to riot.. all in vain, on the contrary, all of their efforts back-lashed against Turkey itself with more harm than ever thought.
For that Turkish Muslim Brotherhood (a terrorist organization based on extreme transliteration of Islam) govt, put all their odds with the removing of Syrian president, if they eventually fail, and most likely they're going to, they are out of the political life in the area and might have consequences throughout the countries that the USA had led changes in and installed Muslim Brotherhood puppet govts in (Libya, Tunisia, Egypt [still trying though they won a majority n Parliamentary elections with a more extreme movement Salafists..) and the tremor most likely wouldn't stop there.
As soon as Turkish officials slapped economic sanctions against Syria, the latter retaliated with using Turkey's face as a training bag for slapping sanctions hitting Turkish economy very hard that added insult to the injury for Turkish PM & his team. Syria cancelled a free trade agreement signed in 2004, applied customs tax on Turkish imported good up to 30%, transit fees reinstated against Turkish trucks transporting Turkish goods to most of the Arab countries, esp in Lebanon, Jordan and the Gulf countries.
Turkish officials tried to play down the effects of sanctions by talking about alternate routes for its trucks but the fact is now they have only 2 other options, first through Iraqi's dangerous hostile Kurdish territories adding also 5 days at least in roads, or through sea adding more days and both ways adding high costs.
No alternative for Turkish existing extremist govt except removing Syria's Assad even if they have to go on suicide missions inside Syria, personally! The role given to Turkey by NATO and it accepted thinking it will be resurrecting the dead Ottoman Empire was much bigger than its capabilities, a dream that will become a nightmare soon; therefore, it's Mission Impossible.
Note: It's worth mentioning that the measures taken by Syria against Turkey are far beyond what Turkish govt expected especially the cancellation of the Free Trade Agreement signed in 2004, yet we see most media allied with NATO covers the issue as Turkey was the one to cancel the agreement. This link to a Turkish prominent newspaper is a conclusive evidence that Syria cancelled the agreement before 5 days of Turkish announcement of cancelling the same agreement, which falls in line with most of the media-misconception reporting Syrian events: http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/Default.aspx?PageID=238&nID=8385&NewsCatID=338
I admire the short-sighted vision and blood-thirsty mood in the west towards the Middle East..!
You like to see every country having a 'Democracy'? Why not start with
yourself?! Ok, now this might drive some of you mad, but do you know
what political system runs in the USA? I doubt. To claim you are a 'Democracy' and you have a desire to export your way
of life to others is so dumb because if you don't own something you
can't export it, let alone practice it.
Read your constitution & look at your own political system running
in the USA, you might not like it, but the USA is a 'Republic' and not a
'Democracy', because the latter by definition for sure will wipe out
all rights of minorities, then if you are a 'Democracy' by practice, how
do you explain that a country of 320 million inhabitants produced only 2
parties to rule it rotationally since ever, while Syria, the country
you never stop preaching 'Democracy' to had before the terror started
there 5 political parties officially represented in the parliament, the
govt & throughout the army, police... & if counts only 23
million inhabitants?! Now the number of parties as we speak reaches 9.
If you think that you elect in a 'Democratic' way your congressmen, your representatives, and your president, then try asking yourselves the simple question: Why does those 'elected' officials need to raise money to get to office? Why the one who raises more money get 'elected' while those popular figures who didn't manage to raise enough money don't get 'elected'? Then ask who have enough money to control all that procedure, and need not remind you that because Goldman Sachs funded your existing president he got the job. (Check Here)
A 'Republic' protects the rights of minorities, did you know that the 23
million Syrians split among 42 ethnic & religious backgrounds? I'm
sure not, because you only love to see warfare games sitting on a couch
at your home while other countries benefit from your desire to protect
its people & enjoy the 'Democracy' you exported to them:
Libyans enjoyed your 'protection of civilians' when 'Democracy' raids
resulted in a 120,000 lives lost, more wounded, much more lost their
incomes, a devastated country to live in and instead of a 'Democracy'
they'll have to live in a terrorist style political system preached
previously by Taliban in Afghanistan when your govt imported what it
used to claim it's fighting in its 'war on terror' to fight Gaddafi and
takeover his power..
Don't ask me how it managed to control those people
it told you it's fighting overseas for the past 11 years while you paid
for that war blood & money, you can ask your govt that, since
you're a 'Democracy'.
And since I mentioned Afghanistan it's worth remembering the reason your troops are there, remember when George W Bush accused cavemen in Afghanistan of taking down the two towers in New York? 9/11?
Those cavemen dubbed Al Qaeda headed by Osama Ben Laden who was killed by Obama Ben Hussain were later transferred to Libya as I mentioned above, but for 11 years, your government attacked the country that is famously known for its opium fields and its proximity to Russia, not its ability to launch attacks on super powers, during these years your government managed to kill thousands of civilians (Check Here) wounding thousands, displacing thousands, all at the cost of your own money and blood for a fake reason. And left the people there with a devastated country.
Iraq is another example of your govt will to export your 'Democracy' worldwide and demolish a threat of Iraqi's WMDs which turned out as a lie of course later, but in the process of 8 years before declaring your total defeat, 1.5 million Iraqis lost their lives in direct killing and killings caused by terrorists 'controlled by CIA' surprisingly, like the case in Afghanistan transferred to Libya, 4.5 million Iraqis displaced internally and across the borders into neighboring countries, and it's worth mentioning that Syria's stake was 1.5 million Iraqi refugees, you can imagine the wounded and orphaned of course; and of course a devastated country.
Syria will not be another importer of your 'Democracy' because simply it's out of your reach, not in the UNSC which for a first time your govt was slapped with a Double Veto from Russian and China on one side, the might of Syria's army which is not matched in the MENA region, the unpredictable reaction it might have especially it hinted several times that it would drown israel 'your parasite' with missiles in case it get attacked, add to it a strong combination of allies it has throughout the world and the region, need not mention its geo-political importance.
As you see, every time your government wants to distract your attention and export its internal problems it goes on a blood spilling spree worldwide, once under retaliation for the war of terror where retaliating the death of 3,000 US citizens caused the deaths of millions of civilians, or by fear that a country overseas might use its nonexistent Weapons of Mass Destruction against your country, and ironically enough, it's your country that stocks such weapons and of course the parasite state in the Middle East region 'israel' that lives on your account, then just saying it was a lie, 'Responsibility to Protect' is the new trend now, it worked in Libya thus far, and since it's protecting civilians it succeeded in 'protecting their paths to heavens'.
You want to export your 'Democracy', why not earn one for a start? Be men, leave the couch and join the protesters taking to the streets against the bankers who control your leaders who are controlled by AIPAC which is controlled by 'israel' which lives on the account of your taxes and when 1.2 million families lost their houses to banks last year, 'israel' received $8 Billion Dollars in direct & indirect aide, the same amount which would have saved those families their houses. The role of the state of 'israel' and your govt role in protecting its interests is only to create more enemies for your children and rob you off your money to again leave your children with debts they can never pay.
WAKE UP & Join the 99% who are controlled by the 1% in your own country to fix your 'Democracy' and allow sharing of power then lead by example, otherwise just sit on the couch and watch the 1% rips your economy apart and commit crimes in your names, create enemies for your children to face, and be hated as the worst evil country on this planet.
Don't you just admire those warmongering NATO mouthpieces? They show you few protesters upset with a president, call the president embattled and don't show you 11 rallies taking place in one day in 11 different cities with over 8 million persons rallying in support of the 'embattled' president!.
The guy is very smart and has extreme support among his people, just imagine: The army of 560,000 soldiers didn't see a single worthy defection over 9 months, total 'defected' didn't reach 1,000 which dwarfs comparing with the norms of AWOL 'absent without leave' which happens in all armies and the standard is between 5% - 10% when there's no problems in any given country, in Syria's case that should be at least 28,000 defected soldiers to start counting them as possible defects!
Not a single diplomat has resigned over 9 months, in spite of the enormous intimidation and cajole NATO & allies hosting countries practiced, and we're talking about thousands of such diplomats.. Not a single minister/ governor/ security official/ police chief/ teacher.. resigned over the period of last 9 months..
Instead of having mass protests against the president we witnessed tens of mass rallies with one of them exceeding 2 million alone in Damascus and 1.5 million in Aleppo in his support within a one week span, plus the ones mentioned above, the small protests you are shown by NATO warmongering mass media occurred in villages as: Dail, Ibtaa, Kafr Nabl, Der Balba, Taftanaz.. I invite you here to use Google Maps or Yahoo maps to locate these villages on the map of Syria, I'll give you a hint also, all are border villages with Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.
WAKE UP folks, your govts use such mass media channels to control your thought and push you to the acceptance of committing crimes in your names, similar like the recent one of 'protecting civilians' in Libya by securing the path of 120,000 of them to heavens by drones, previously 1.5 million Iraqi were also 'protected' by securing their paths to heavens, add 4.5 million displaced due to the invasion of Iraq based on a lie at the UNSC which Collin Powell even showed us solid proof in satellite images of the existence of WMDs, what about Afghanistan and their harboring to the cavemen who downed the 2 towers in 9/11? The famine USA caused in Somalia due to its strategic geographical location in the horn of Africa and proximity to mineral & water sources... etc.
They rob you off your money in order to finance crimes committed in your name against people who never caused any threat to you, then later taking away your homes because you were not able to afford the mortgage payments because you were funding the wars while your govt was bailing banks with your money and only 1.2 million families lost their homes last year to banks..
STOP CREATING ENEMIES FOR YOUR CHILDREN.
STOP LOSING YOUR SAVINGS AND GET MORE INDEBTED TO SERVE A FOREIGN STATE THAT SUCKED $8 BILLION OF YOUR HEALTH CARE BENEFITS LAST YEAR IN DIRECT & INDIRECT AIDE 'israel' WHO CONTROLS AIPAC WHO CONTROLS THE BANKERS WHO CONTROL THE ADMIN WHICH CONTROLS YOU.
Above comment on the interview of president Assad with ABC on December 8, 2011
Ignore most of what's written (in a Guardian article) and look for a second at the photo at the beginning, those are supporters of 'embattled' president Assad..!
If an embattled president gets so much people to rally for him (estimates of over 1.2 million), I don't know what a 'popular' president will get?!
Game over, masks all fallen, today the Istanbul made Syrian Opposition Council head Burhan Ghalion said in a statement: In case they get to power they'll sever or maybe he used the word cut ties with Iran, Hizbollah & HAMAS.. So it's not about improving democracy, or for the sake of Human Rights, it's not about liberating the market or enhancing life standards.. It's all about cutting ties with Iran, Hizb & HAMAS, for what purpose precisely? Securing the safety of israel.
Not only he lost the mask of fighting for 'reforms' in Syria, he dealt a bullet to those few who were still supporting him and his group of opposition figures because the general mode in Syria as everybody knows is against israel, since it occupies Golan heights of Syria and other Arab lands, and its lifetime history of oppression and discrimination against Arabs under its occupation.
Adding to the fact that killing army soldiers and security forces, then cutting them in pieces doesn't really serve democracy spreaders, nor does torching the house of court in several cities, nor does butchering civilians refusing to riot.
Picture Al Jazeera & clan tried to distribute about riots there as 'peaceful protests' oppressed by a 'brutal regime' were all blown throughout the crisis by many journalists, a Russian fact finding mission, also one of ALBA group of Latin America countries, and others, and very recently by a documentary shown at a press conference by Foreign Minister of Syria Mr. Walid Moallem, which its live broadcasting was surprisingly cut when the documentary started rolling on Al Jazeera & Al Arabiya pan Arab channels claiming the nature of "Graphic images" and their "inability to verify the contents" while they never stopped for over 8.5 months of showing more graphic videos and not a single verified contents video just to blame and frame the Syrian govt uniform forces, army & security to serve the goal of demonizing the regime in order to unleash 'freedom fighters' to finish it.. an old ugly method used in several areas before and recently in Libya.
Questions we should ask ourselves regarding events in Syria in particular, and the MENA (Middle East & North Africa) in general to understand what's really happening:
1) Who are those appearing in foreign media as taking to the streets protesting against Syrian Govt? 2) Where are these protests taking place in Syria? 3) What are they calling for? 4) What are their means when protesting? 5) Who supports them? 6) Why they have an unchallenged priority in coverage above other could be more important news?
First we need to know that Syria is a very diversitified society that has a minority of every ethnic or religious sect known to the wider region, we should also keep in mind that the Syrians have seen most of the aggressors during history and managed to get their independence hence they became ulta-sensitive towards any foreign intervention in their internal matters, they'll simply regather, forget their differences and fight the foreign intervention.
Let's try to answer these questions.
1) Who are those appearing in foreign media as taking to the streets protesting against Syrian Govt? Daily so many news channels show footage of large numbers of crowds protesting in several cities in Syria against the govt, many of these news channels took on its shoulders to keep posting these protests all day, all week and rebroadcast it several times, and in many times keep the 'Live' symbol appearing to give an illusion that these are live endless protests.
By the look at the protesters, most of them will not show faces, recording their protests from behind, or from a distance, but in case we believe that these protesters are Syrians and are actually in Syria, who are they?
Based on the narrations while broadcasting these protests it hints that it covers most of the Syrian territories making it appear like a mass popular movement. Obviously those participating in the protests are from poor and poorest areas based on their looks, cloth and neighborhoods. So these are poor people protesting, and not educated elite or organized political parties or unions.
2) Where are these protests taking place in Syria? As in our above answer (1), we hinted that it meant to show that it covers all over Syria, but does it? For the past 5 months, ie after the famous Hama 900,000 protesters (number refuted by logic and many media analysts since the entire population doesn't exceed 2 million all over the province) we stopped seeing mass protests in known cities, or centers of provinces. The only reported protests are taking place in remote villages with names like: Kafr Nibl (كفر نبل), Ibtaa (ابطع), Bayyada (بياضة), Dael (داعل).. Now thanks to Google and their revolutionary product: Google Maps, I invite the readers to locate these protest hotbeds on the map.
As we see, remote villages, mostly near borders with other countries, with extremely low populations -not exceeding 5,000 in most cases- are seeing protests demanding the change of the regime!
In a 'Democracy' that's absurd, because they don't stand a chance in a country of 23 million population, in a 'Republic' their rights will be respected, their voices will not be heard.
3) What are they calling for? What are these 'protests' demanding? To take to the streets against an 'oppressing brutal regime' there should be grieve demands to allow undesirable consequences that pushes people to protest, so in this case their demands should be very much life touching to take the chance of losing life for?!
At the beginning of protests in March, when events in Syria started unfolding, people were asking for the replacement of the governor and a security chief in Daraa city to the south of Syria, near Jordanian borders. The governor was replaced, the security chief was replaced, but protests turned violent, the court house after replacing the governor was attacked, torched, public and security buildings attacked, rioters used sniper rifles and pump-actions to attack army & security posts in the city, demands increased and the ousting of the president started to be heard with the infamous slogan: "The People Demand the Downfall of the Regime" "الشعب يريد إسقاط النظام".. the same slogan used all over the 'Arab Spring' affected countries from Egypt to Tunisia to Libya to Yemen..
To demand the downfall of the 'regime' requires grave reasons and mass protests and not to start with small local issues and tiny protests accompanied with violent riots.
If we add over 9 million Syrians rallying in support of the president during the month November in the main cities of Syria, to add that many cities never witnessed a single protest, not even with a 100 person protesting, something is wrong about labeling it popular protests. We should know that Damascus, Aleppo, Latakia, Tartous, Al Rigga, Hasaka Suwaida, Qunaitra didn't witness any anti-govt protest, that's a huge indication justifying the doubtful reasons behind 'anti-govt protests'. Keep in mind that Damascus and Aleppo by themselves have about half of the population of the whole of Syria.
Yet, president Assad took brave and very substantial steps towards reforming the entire political system in Syria, starting with dismissing the previous government, forming a new one, forming committees that introduced new laws governing Media, Parties, Constitution, Elections, Local Administration.. etc. Most finished their work and the progress in others is admirable.
So what do these people really want, protesting in small numbers in remote cities, mostly close to the borders? Should their demands of the downfall of the entire 'regime' be taking seriously? Name a country that does so, and we'll look into their experience.
4) What are their means when protesting? A protest is known to be peaceful, but when weapons from kitchen knives to AK47 rifles and more, that is called violent riots and their participants could be referred to as armed gangs.
Placards calling for better politics/ life enhancing slogans can be found in a peaceful protest, placards calling for the hanging of the president of a country, is a provocative criminal call.
Marching in a number throughout a road in a city calling for demands can be called a peaceful protest, not mentioning the requirement of a license from authorities, while gathering in groups then attacking an army base, a public building, destroying properties, killing police officers cannot be seen as a 'peaceful protest', it should be called: A Terrorist Act, or in a softer note: An armed mafia attack.
5) Who supports them? As we said earlier above, Syrians are ultra sensitive to foreigners meddling with their internal country matters, think of an enemy state supporting riots in Syria?!
Whatever the cause of protests can be understood, but when it comes to be supported by weapons, money and covered in media by enemy states, especially in Syria that's seen as a terrorist plot, conspiracy theories will come on mind, because it is not thought of a Syrian taking aide from an enemy state to topple his own regime for whatsoever reason, except under the perspective of a conspiracy plot to invade his country.
The United States of America is not considered a friendly country in Syria keeping in mind its decades long support of israel that occupies Syrian land among other Arab lands, and oppress Syrians among oppressing other Arabs in its apartheid policies. Thus any support by the USA to any group or individuals in Syria is looked upon with suspicion of spying to helping in invading. Syrians also saw what the USA has down for 8 years after invading Iraq to devastating the entire country, killing a million Iraqi and displacing over 4 millions, they also saw what happened when USA and friends in NATO protected Libyans by securing their way to heavens in a genocide.
6) Why they have an unchallenged priority in coverage above other could be more important news? Syria is a very important geopolitical country, its stance against israel, thus imperialism, makes it the most important part of a chain of countries that still stands out of the USA hegemony. Destroying Syria is to USA as destroying Nazi Germany to the Allies during WWII.
Al Jazeera was chosen to be a mouthpiece for NATO backed 'revolutions' in the Arab World, dubbed the 'Arab Spring', for its built up credibility over 11 years, and its acceptance by most of the Arabs as a trustworthy news source, add to it the proclaimed role it had in anti-Mubarak of Egypt protests and others. The role of Al Jazeera was essential to continue the chain of countries split and visited by the 'Arab Spring'. Its role was defaced by Syrians and namely a private-owned satellite channel in Syria 'Addounia' that also was subject to an unprecedented sanction by the EU to block its satellite broadcasting on the European Satellites just because it was able to deface the Al Jazeera and show the warmongering and propaganda it was spreading in order to achieve the biggest goal, 'The New Middle East' by a "creative chaos" that will lead to the New World Order, eventually.
Foreign and other Arab based media started quoting Al Jazeera for news, which Al Jazeera was quoting vague unknown 'Activist' mostly based in Europe telling events and 'brutality' of the Syrian government and security forces 'oppressing' the 'peaceful protesters'. So much of credibility falls when you just follow the line of reporting. Some news houses had to apologize for misinformation and wrong reporting more than once, then they were forced to just follow the leader 'Al Jazeera' which also follows its leaders in the US Secretary of State Near East Office under the official Jefferey Feltman. Among those news houses complicit we can find: Reuters (and what it represents in the media world), CNN, FoxNews (of course), Washington Post, LA Times, NY Post and many others. Al Arabiya pan Arab news channel is just a smaller clone of Al Jazeera.
Same could be applied to tools used by the US Administration that it can have access to.
From all of the above, we come to the concluding question: Is what's happening in Syria peaceful protests against demanding better political contribution against a brutal regime? Or if we look down from an upper level, it is a plot to destroy and slice those countries not fully under the US hegemony and replace their existing governments with ones that are puppets used by the US administrations?
