Syria’s dissidents abroad have won the respect of many over the past couple of weeks for their willingness to speak truth to power. They are right when they argue that what is needed is a revolution and not an evolution. It is in this spirit that I submit the following which was originally posed on my personal blog 2 weeks ago.

Syria Needs a Revolution.

So many of the regime apologists in Syria have stumbled on the phrase “evolution and not revolution” and have used it to great effect in scoring points against the critics of the Baath establishment. What is most unfortunate is the almost unanimous refrain that they get from those with whom they are debating, “of course evolution would be the better solution”.

The above, sadly, does not reflect positively on either group since the two words represent completely different ideologies and since no one should be allowed to pretend that both means will reach the same end.They will not. If that was the case then there will never ever be any rationale for revolutions in any field and in any area of knowledge anywhere in the world.

Given a certain vision of reality and a set of beliefs in how the world works practitioners; high priests; proceed to use these ideas in an effort to spread that particular vision or model. Obviously any vision or model can be marginally improved upon, within its broader self imposed constraints of its zeitgeist.

Thomas Kuhn, in his highly influential “The Structure of Scientific Revolutions” described the epistemological vision that is dominant ,at any point in time, as being a paradigm. It is to be noted that what is crucially important for this discussion is that as an accepted paradigm is being articulated by its believers it will always run into anomalies and paradoxes. The natural reaction of the practitioners is to reject the anomalies as false hoods and to go on with business as usual.

In all fields, these anomalies grow until it becomes impossible to dismiss them as being non essential. It is then that the youth; those that do not have a vested interest in the status quo; will rise and yell the emperor has no clothes. Once that happens then that specific field would have undergone a paradigm shift, a radical change in thinking, a revolution. It is also noteworthy not to lose track of the fact that different paradigms are “incommensurable” since each is based on a totally different vision of reality.

What the, much abbreviated, description of the above implies is that once the potential imbedded within a certain understanding of the dynamics required by a certain vision are exhausted then the only possible way to move forward is to reject the past paradigm and adopt a totally different one. This method of explaining the accumulation of knowledge is not linear. It is based on quantum leaps, on discontinuities and on having the courage to adopt a new way of thinking. This is not an evolutionary process but is actually an understanding that we move forward only through revolutions since sooner or later any accepted paradigm, set of values or system of beliefs will fail to explain the inevitable anomalies that arise.

Copernicus and Galileo provided an understanding, a vision if you will that is not related at all to that of Ptolemy. They posited that the earth revolves around the sun instead of the idea that our planet was the center around which everything revolved. That revolution changed the way that we understand our place in the universe and it was not an evolutionary movement. It was based on a total rejection of all what came before it.

The same process is true when one views social, political and economic evolutions. Feudalism does not evolve into capitalism just as much as capitalism will not evolve into ecological societies. Dictatorships and authoritarian rule will never evolve into democratic structures based on the idea of human rights and personal liberty. These ideas are diametrically opposite and to pretend that one can evolve into that which is its antithesis is groundless. The only way to shift from one phase to the other is to have a revolution. It must also be emphasized that a revolution does not mean violence to individuals but it must mean rejection of old established ideas and values that serve only the interests of the high priests. Revolutions will not cease until we get to the end of history.

The current regional applications of the above simply mean that no dictatorship will ever evolve into a democracy since that means evolving into its negation, into what it is not. Another relevant example of the above is the impossibility of transforming Lebanon into a modern democratic state without getting rid of all its traditional tribal leaders. Revolution means an abrupt change that anchors a system on principles and ideas that would never be acceptable under the current paradigm. You cannot evolve a system into a revolution since they simply represent the antithesis of each other and since a revolution is called for only once the current dominant paradigm has totally failed. It has both in Syria and in Lebanon regionally, and so has the obsession with economic growth globally.

The Syrian Buazizi:
“…On May 21, near the Iraqi border, 17-year-old activist Mohammed Akram al-Tumeh poured lamp oil over his body and set himself alight in a central street only hours after he was released from prison for protesting. Noor’s friends say that when the police released Tumeh, he was covered in bruises, and there are rumors that he was sexually abused in jail. Tumeh died on May 22”.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/20110524/wl_time/08599207362300

“Fearful of being tailed in Damascus, revolutionaries are traveling out of the capital to protest. One activist, who will be referred to as Ammar, said that every Thursday he travels to Homs to protest. “In Homs I could get shot, but in Damascus I’ll get arrested and thrown in jail before we can even organize a protest,” he said, speaking in a smoky old Damascene cafÉ, confident that the ambient noise of the lively room would drown out his dissenting views. It is well known, he said, that phones and e-mails are tapped. Ammar will talk only in person”.

Amir
Take advantage and be the the Israeli boazizi
It will cost you 10 cents.you are worth it.

I have been listening to Joshua’s expert (and foreboding) commentary and reading Ignace Leverrier’s “Un oeil sur la Syrie”.

Was struck by Leverrier’s observation that Sunni Syrian troops are used to put down demonstrations in heavily Allawite areas such as Latakia and Hama with the Republican Guard, the Special Forces and the 4th Army Division handing the protests in Sunni areas. But this shows that the protest movement itself can indeed span religious and community divides and as such must be scaring the pants off Bashar.

“But this shows that the protest movement itself can indeed span religious and community divides and as such must be scaring the pants off Bashar.”

This is assuming that Bashar is getting his legitimacy exclusively from his community which, by why you said, is wrong.

#7 why would he? he has a government and army which looks out for it’s people and protects their best interests, unlike us. When one of their soldiers is captured, they start wars and offer millions of dollars to have him returned. Our government kills 1000 of us and blames it on armed gangs, all so that AlAssad and the crooks in his family can stay in power and abuse us more. You see this is the reason why we always lose to Israel, they’re a free country which respects it’s own citizens, we’re not.

If you genuinely care about defeating your enemies, clean up your own house first.

Netanyahu’s real message to Congress: There will be no peace talks

http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Backchannels/2011/0524/Netanyahu-s-real-message-to-Congress-There-will-be-no-peace-talks

Kandahar,
Any news from the future? I miss that.
.

Dear aboali
I hate it when I see somebody talking with bad intentions about Syria in general and that the way Amir is ,that is why I gave him my advise.but in general we all have to be realistic and not think that we will be able between day and night change Syria from a 3rd world country to Switzerland or Singapore.we look around us and we see so many dead bodies infested with so many bugs wrapped with shinny democracy coffin(Iraq,Egypt,Iran,Gaza,Tunisia,Yemen etc).
Why should we be stupid and accept the same fate.As far as Israel is concern there is no other country in the world which enjoys as much us tax dollars free money and being treated as VIP special spoiled child as they do,you know that and I know it .Prs Obama could’t stand by his worlds about the 1967 line for more than 48 hours and he almost had to applologize to prime min of a country which is about 9 miles wide.go figure.

Dear Amir
Doing that(Alsahwa Alsoria)is very time consuming and involves a lot of intellectuality .i will keep doing it when I have time.

WD
It’s amazing the resemble of the Russian TV and any Arab TV 🙂

BiBi more powerful than Barack

Jad

Thanks for the link. I wonder how the average american feels to have this guy pumped like Sylvester Stallone addressing a bunch of applauding sheeps that they have elected.

WD
They only miss couple of those elected congressmen to read poetry for Bibi, ma 7da a7sn min 7da 😉

Jad,

The funny thing is that we ridicule and criticize the behavior of members of majles el shaab, but at least they prostrate themselves before their own president, whereas these clowns have no problem prostrating themselves before a foreign leader of a “shitty little country” as one diplomat once called it.

Tell me Aboali ,does it not occur to you that your logic is more than flawed,if you get rid of Assad,do you really think that it is wise you go rush to ‘defeat your enemies’…come again??????How about looking to be free and to be peaceful then you might have a chance of being like Israel since you admire my country so much.But you are too brainwashed to see the light any ways.And I say it again..Israel is peaceful and develops a lot,has a reputation in business and cares about it’s people and wants peace….You see it’s very different from your mentality,actually you deserve Assad.

# 18 Jad,

“They only miss couple of those elected congressmen to read poetry for Bibi…”

I love the allusion in this comment.

WD said:

Netanyahu’s real message to Congress: There will be no peace talks

Right, because the Palestinians won’t negotiate w/o preconditions.

However, the Palestinians could enter “peace talks” if they wanted to.

Max deal with the Kuwaiti group is akin to, a partly legit money laundering.
Spurred by international sanctions, he is liquidating businesses prone to international sanctions.
The Kuwait group was ill-advised to capitalise!

1.Rami is selling his company that operates the free zones to a group of Kuwaiti investors. Next step must be syriatel and any major company he owns. He is a liability for Syria and disliked by most Syrians.
2. Bibi speech and the response from our congress here is the US is a reminder that Arabs have no friends until they submit. Syria will not submit,it is not in our genes.
3.a more free and democratic Syria is a necessity for Syria and the whole Arab world. Arab rulers do not want a secular regime in Syria,they want a puppet government that does what it is told for few dollars from “???? ???????”
4. Life is returning to normal to most of Syria ? ?? ??? ????????. It is still possible to oppose the regime and demand security and peace for all Syrians. Our corrupt government and outdated political system is our problem, and we are the ones who will solve it. The EU and other “concerned” nations should focus on their own problems. ?????? ?????? ?? ?????

Netanyahu’s conditions for peace amount to a declaration of war. It is not my commentary it is the CBC commentary ‘the world at 6’.

SC’s Nafdik did a clip making fun of the Syrian parliament using the Canadian parliament as an example in praising their prime minister, it was hilarious and it fits perfectly in this whole charade of the American congress and the beloved ‘Bibi’, ENJOY!
I guess all humans are made from the same crappy materials, the only difference is the last thin ayer of ‘coating’.

I could’nt help but notice a ground breaking change, over the last couple of weeks, in how anti-revolution posters have come to view their favoured system.

Now they generally accept that:
– The Baath pary is useless.
– The other two pillars of the ruling hierarchy are hated , corrupt and beyond repair, and that they should be dispensed with
– That jr ought to resort to internationally refereed referandum

I wholeheartedly welcome such a change, and I would like to shake your hands, virtually that is.

This is a very strong common base for all of us, to build-on our further discussions.

I love the way American media praise Bibi, even more than its congress!
‘Charmer’,’Flattered’ aka Arrogant, ‘Adequately’, ‘make painful compromises’, ‘triumph’, ‘eloquent’, ‘brilliant’ and wait for it, he is compared to ‘Winston Churchill….Oh My God! and I was thinking of poetry….they exceed poetry by far…the next step is to introduce ‘bilro7 bildam nafdik ya bibi’

Debate: Was Netanyahu’s speech to Congress a step in the right direction for peace?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was quite the charmer as he flattered and thanked the U.S. in a speech to Congress on Tuesday. But did he adequately address how Israel might forge peace with the Palestinians? He said he was willing to make painful compromises, but he also laid out a lot of ground rules that didn’t make him appear all that flexible.

Jonathan S. Tobin of Commentary said the speech was a triumph.

During the course of an eloquent and brilliant speech that laid out Israel’s desire for peace as well as the threats that face it, Netanyahu was interrupted with standing ovations from the assembled Congress over 50 times. The cheers were not mere form; they were a genuine expression of the heartfelt support that huge majorities of both parties in both chambers feel for Israel. The speech was a triumph that can well be compared to the applause earned by Winston Churchill when he spoke to Congress as a wartime ally. It didn’t just highlight the bonds between Israel and America but the willingness of this Congress to view Netanyahu personally as a special friend of the American people.

Debra DeLee, president and CEO for Americans for Peace Now, disagreed, saying the speech was a step backward.

Prime Minister Netanyahu was today granted a podium that few world leaders receive. He had the chance to demonstrate to the world that, contrary to many people’s expectations, he grasps the urgency of the moment. Unfortunately for Israel, he did not rise to the occasion. […]

Israel desperately needs peace with the Palestinians -– to secure Israel’s future as a Jewish state and a democracy, to protect Israeli security, and to head off a confrontation at the United Nations in September. Unfortunately, rather than laying out his promised new vision of peace, Netanyahu stayed mainly on the well-worn path of grandstanding, blame-laying, and fear-mongering. Rather than embracing the opportunity offered by President Obama to work together to get peace efforts back on track, Netanyahu offered little more than disingenuous words of support for peace.

Even before Bibi arrogant speech, Gideon Levy predict what he will say, however, nobody will punish Israel Mr. Gideon, nobody dares:

Netanyahu has invited America to punish Israel
U.S. President Barack Obama has exposed the naked truth – Netanyahu does not want peace, does not want a Palestinian state, is not a true friend of the United States.

I guess you just wake up!!!!! we were saying the same thing even before you join SC.

No, Angry Sophia. The palestinian vow to destroy Israel and replace it with a river to the sea Arab state, is a declaration of war. Bibi’s speech is a merely about self defense.

Netanyahu and Bashshar
Many of my readers noted that members of the US Congress act toward Netanyahu the way Syrian MPs act toward Bashshar, exactly.
Posted by As’ad AbuKhalil at 4:02 PM

Dear All, We, The people, have been sharing the land of “Syria” for thousands of years.

All of our religious beliefs are congenital.
– They were passed down to us from our families. We had no choice but to accept them.
– As we grew up, we started to cherish them, because they were part of our immediate culture and provided us with rules of decency and common laws.

The religious beliefs of the People of Syria, have changed over thousands years.
Our forefathers of the Tribes of Syria were atheists.

When Abraham introduced monotheism, the majority of Syrians believed in him and in his message from God (Islam as per Quran).
– A minority remained atheist or continued to worship other deities.
– That religious split probably happened across, as well as within tribes and families.

When Jesus came with same God’s message (Islam as per Quran), the majority of Syrians also believed in him and became Christians, but never stopped believing in Abraham.
– A minority however, did not believe in Jesus. They continued to believe in Abraham or to be atheists, or worship other deities.
– The split probably happened across, as well as within tribes and families.

When Mohammad came with God’s message (Islam as per Quran), the majority of Syrians also believed in Mohammed. They never stopped to believe in Jesus or Abraham. – A minority however, did not believe in Mohammad’s prophecy. They continued to be believers in Abraham and/or Jesus or to be athesits or worship other deities.
– The split is well known to have happened across, as well as within tribes and families.
– The tribes that lived at the interface between predominantly Christian and Muslem believers adopted a hybrid of their beliefs; They are the Shi3as.

Relatives of the same tribes or their family descendants living in cities in current day Syria, can be Christians, Sunnis, Si3a and 3alawi.

To respect our beliefs is to respect our choices, and who we are.
Freedom of speech, on this blog and elsewhere in Syria, should be subservient to our mutual respect of our beliefs, and of us as human beings.

Amir in Tel Aviv

Yes, Yes, we know the song… we heard it many times accompanied by the sound of the guns killing Palestinians children in Gaza on “self-defense”.

“Declaration of War” NewZ

Amir,

The last time I saw this much applause it was when Jr. spoke at the Syrian Paliament…

Syria opposition to meet in Turkey

No mention of the removal of Bashar al Assad. or overthrow of the regime

http://www.khaleejtimes.com/darticlen.asp?xfile=data/middleeast/2011/May/middleeast_May680.xml&section=middleeast&col=

…. “The Syrian opposition will organise a conference in Antalya from May 31 to June 2 in support of the revolt in Syria and claims of the Syrian people,” Ammar Qurabi, president of the Egypt-based National Organisation of Human Rights, told AFP.

The conference will be open to all supporters of the opposition, independent personalities and representatives of all faiths, he said, referring to a group of reformers who called for democratic changes in 2005 under a statement known as the Damascus Declaration.

…His opponents are demanding an end to the domination of the ruling Baath party, free elections and the release of political prisoners..

A secular Syria with multi-party system (religious party affiliation is not allowed). Keep the army and homeland security in place to keep order and protect minorities from the unknown. A good start!!

WD
You forgot to mention that whoever want to participate is financially covered, his/her traveling expenses, his/her hotel and the food, by Generious, Anonymous and ofcourse Patriotic ‘Buisnessmen’ No question asked about the funding, God forbid!

I wonder why ponytail is not there?!

Akbar,

I have to agree with Tribal Jad that there’s something bizarre about the way Bibi was welcomed today. And yes, it does remind of the ridiculous (it was “Cyprus for Syrians” Nour who said that) Majles AlSha’b. As an American, I would feel somewhat uncomfortable.

BTW, applauding is prohibited in the Israeli Knesset. The only time when they gave permission to applause, was during president Sa’adat visit in 1977.

Usually, the Knesset looks like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJn96BTIxwU
(Notice minute 0:38, Arab Knesset member A7mad Tibi (temporary chairman) orders the guards to evict two Likud members from the hall).
.

“Bizarre”? Absolutely. No two countries have a relationship that is so close.

Ma laasot?

Now I’m watching Sean Hannity’s interview with BB…

AP
Yes, almost incestuous.
I guess it was a slap of the congress to Obama’s face for his misbehavior with Bibi Hood.

Jad ,you asked me once if Hassoun is really so bad.

Here you have the answer from the aleppines themselves=

WD,

No, just very similar values like freedom and opportunity.

the Syrian Parliament was embarrassing indeed ,but for me that was the first time they did all the poetry and the clapping from their hearts ..this time they wanted to show their support and that the only way they knew for me for the first time in my life i didn’t see them as hypocrites .

There’s nothing heroic about being a cyberdissident. It’s like being the kid over the fence who throws rocks but when you shake a stick at him, he runs away.

What is worse, from their safe havens in Scandanavia and the USA, these cyber “heroes” encourage people who are already in harm’s way to commit acts that could get them killed. They’re like the fellow who sends you out to a riot with the words, “Don’t worry, I’ll be right behind you.” Except he isn’t. He’s in Sweden getting fat on pastries while you’re left holding the bag.

So when this is all over and Bashar Assad is gone and they’re passing out awards to the Syrian heroes who brought down the regime, make sure someone asks the cyberdissidents where they were when mukhabarat was torturing your father and raping your sister.

http://playwrighter.blogspot.com/2011/04/mahmoud-ahmadinejads-obituary.html

Dear Revlon
Based on your beautiful comment above MB should remain illegal in Syria to help keeping secular,then you can rmove Assad if you agree.

Revlon, is some one eles using your name?

its really nice to see you looking for the common grounds and to know that you can be a ‘good finder’ , maybe its the first time i read a comment of yours easily without all the smoke and the strong emotions covering every words of yours , for me its good news , i hope one day all the Syrians will overcome the hatred and the blame game and start finally a civilized dialogue.

Today iwas in London and we went to demonstrate in the support of Bashar Al Asad in Buckingham palace as Obama was there meeting the queen, off course the opposition was there as usual they arrived 1 hour after us but for the first time it was enough for 3 Police officers to keep the both sides aside, the aggression was less today .so many good news today

Shami,
Why bother talking to a ‘Bashar, Maher and Rami’s lover’ and ‘Moukhabarati’ person like me, save your precious comment to someone worthy to you and your stance.

Daleandersen,
I agree with you about those fake heroes who are using others to die just to capture them some clips as Yaser Abou Hilaleh of Aljazeera did to Almasalme guy in Daraa which cost Masalme’s life and yaser alzft the fame.
Those guys are nothing but parasites using others for their own gain, now all of them are claiming to be the Fathers and Heroes of the uprising, how pathetic

Here is an other clip ,which shows how works the spontaneous gathering process in which each one doesnt know the other.
It was taken in the middle class district of Nile Street.

Are things actually improving or it is just me? I hope it is not too early to celebrate that nobody got killed in the streets and no building was burnt today.

Here’s how some us feel in Amerika and most Americans don’t care what happens there, they have their own problem here, like no jobs, no health care, and nothing but wars everywhere.

More on Rami (not confirmed yet),he reportedly plans on liquidating most of his assets and take his empire to the UAE except that he will be a much smaller fish in the rich emirate. Taking him to court is fair but unlikely in the immediate future.As for Maher,nobody expects Bashar to prosecute his own brother but I doubt that we will hear much of him in the future. I heard that no one else will be given immunity.the regime is also preparing a list of new faces that may be a better fit for the next stage. I hope the opposition will come up with its own list.Walid Almuallem is likely to be a major player in the coming period,khaled aleboud’s name was circulated but he has some wounds he has to close in the Daraa area. Hafez makhlouf will “resign” ,Ms Buthaina is seen as a transitional figure with no political future,expats are not likely to take a leading role,but their influence,especially financial, will be felt in subtle ways. This peace is more than gossip but less than news.expect less heat from opposition mouth pieces and more moderation as soon as those political prisoners are freed. People who oppose the regime but are not in favor of a bloody regime change will be orphans if the regime does not release those prisoners and provide more details and a timetable for reform measures. We expect meaningful steps in the next few weeks or even days.

43. Dear Syria no kandahar,
You said
” Based on your beautiful comment above MB should remain illegal in Syria to help keeping secular,then you can rmove Assad if you agree”

Who am I, to propose the exclusion of anyone?!
We are all human beings.
We neither designed, nor created who we are. We have a divine license to express our views.
Such, is both, a privilige and an obligation.

Moslem Brother party, and any other, under any name, should have the right to participate and contribute to the richness of the political life in Syria.

Laws should allow parties to form around any ideology, including religeon, as long as their program does not infringe on the basic human rights of others.

The vast majority of peole are centrists, and moderate.
This is a divine attribute of the human creation, some call it natural distribution.

Inclusion promotes moderation and centricity, while exclusion results in eccentricity and extremism.

Thank you, for inviting me to elaborate on my earlier comment.

Thanks, Abughassan…

Sounds almost like Godfather II, where Michael Corleone’s trying to liquidate his mafia past and go straight: i.e., move out of the bad old New York mean streets and get into the semi-respectable Las Vegas casino business.

So the big question is: are the Assads and their extended “family” getting ready to dump the Alawite connection to save their skins and their holdings? You know how mafia people are: they’d eat their children before they’d part with money.

45. Dear louai,
You said: ” Revlon, is some one eles using your name?”
its really nice to see you looking for the common grounds and to know that you can be a ‘good finder’ , maybe its the first time i read a comment of yours easily without all the smoke and the strong emotions covering every words of yours , for me its good news , i hope one day all the Syrians will overcome the hatred and the blame game and start finally a civilized dialogue”

Most of my postings have been driven by events on the ground. It is no surprise that every time you read them you felt the heat and the smoke of emotions.

We have a vast common ground for agreement. It is as vast as our country itself. Every one and every ideology are needed to be part of it.

The biggest mistake and slap in the face to the “syrian revolution””, was americas’s and europes sanctions on the syrian government. These sanctions have swayed those syrians sitting in the middle of the 2sides of syria towards the Assad government. The more foreign intervention in syria increases, the more the syrian people will stand by Bashar al Assad and the government. Eventually these syrians demonstrating will be seen as collaborators with outside countries

Memo to MOHAMED KANJ

What do you expect Obama to do, dude? Ignore the killings? Pretend like they’re not happening?

You people, and by “you people” I mean Mohamed and those of his ilk, would cry and cuss and moan no matter what America did. Nothing satisfies you. You’re pathetic.

Hey, I have an idea. Tell Bashar next time he decides to hold a blood bath, to do it in private so the world won’t notice, okay?

Dear Revlon,
Lets hope things on the ground will keep without blood or fire so we keep the heart open .

You said it all

‘We have a vast common ground for agreement. It is as vast as our country itself. Every one and every ideology are needed to be part of it’

i also agree with your other comment ‘Inclusion promotes moderation and centricity, while exclusion results in eccentricity and extremism.’ we saw that happening in many many countries ,

When you allow an extreme organization for example the new Nazi in Germany, you expose them to the public and specially to the youth who are normally pro any forbidden movement or idea However all should be build based on secular constitution to protect every one who is moderate and the minorities.

If our aim is dignity freedom and equality then the constitution should be firm and clear ban any group or organization that in its ideology the elimination of others or any group that claim superiority on others,
Its also essential to start immediately to change our education system to teach our children the culture of accepting the differences in other people opinion after all those years of the one colour politics.
People can believe in any thing they want as long as their believe dose not affect other people life style or other people’s life!

Dale redneck Anderson –

U mention spilling blood by al Assad?

Did u forget ur monkey puppet Grammy award winning yes sir president , giving the green light to massacre innocent civilians I’n afghanistan, I’n Bahrain, Egypt , Tunisia , Palestine ? Why didn’t the monkey president worry about the blood of the 1000’s of palestinian children and women who died at the hands of those jewish cannibals? why didn’t ur monkey president step I’n and stop the blood on the streets I’n Bahrain ? Why did it take so long for the monkey to step I’n and help the Egyptian people and tunisian people I’n their struggle ? Double standards isn’t it mr red neck ? Why does obama ignore the killings and torture of innocent saudis at the hands of that whisky loving leader king Fahd ?

Dale , seems u been watching too much fox news.

#56 – daleanderson,

Your question in a previous post as to why no one has considered assasinating the president shows how deranged the mindset of the revolutionists is. As for you memo, I would suggest you send one to the Syrian revolution advising them their game of sectarian violence and attempted destabalisation of the country will not succeed.

America could possibly look at the atrocities that are being commited in Bahrain. At least the Syrian government is trying to regain stability while using their own army. Another idea is that they could look into the inhuman way Palestinians are being treated by the Israeli government and look into why Isreal has 236 Jewish-only settlements and outposts built on confiscated Palestinian land.

I was right, Mohamed, you are pathetic. You attack the American President using racist terms. And you call me a redneck. Dude, you’re the redneck in the room. I’m surprised they let you keep your name. The prophet Mohammed would never refer to even the poorest black man as a monkey…

“Monkeys” and “Cannibals” calling the Kettle Black

Why didn’t the monkey president worry about the blood of the 1000’s of palestinian children and women who died at the hands of those jewish cannibals?

Mohamed KAnj,

My “monkey president” didn’t “worry about the blood of the 1000’s (more like tens) of palestinian children and women” maybe because their husbands have fired thousands of rockets from crowded civilian areas (war crime) into Israeli population centers (war crime #2).

Meanwhile, your “hero”, Assad Jr. is killing more innocent people who aren’t doing anything except standing in the street denouncing the president-for-life.

The head “cannibal”, Benjamin Netanyahu, got 29 standing ovations in the US Congress yesterday. A testament to his wisdom and his ability to articulate is vision of peace (dispite the murderous Jihadists who are trying to take over the ME).

As reported in US media , the friends of the man that got 29 standing ovations from what Rabbi Yosef called, “donkeys and cattle and are only on earth to serve the Jew” did the following:

Rae Abileah was arrested at the George Washington University Hospital in Washington D.C. after heckling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to the anti-war group.

The 28-year-old Jewish American woman was allegedly tackled/beaten by members of the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) during Netanyahu’s speech to Congress after she yelled, “stop Israeli war crimes.”

Abileah was taken to the George Washington University Hospital, where she was being treating for neck and shoulder injuries.

“You know I take it as a badge of honor, and so should you, that in our free societies that you can have protest,” Netanyahu said after being interrupted by Abileah. “You can’t have these protest in the farcical parliaments in Tehran or in Tripoli. This is real democracy.”

Speaking from her hospital bed, Abileah said she was in “great pain” but that it was nothing “compared to the pain and suffering that Palestinians go through on a regular basis.”

“I have been to Gaza and the West Bank, I have seen Palestinians homes bombed and bulldozed, I have talked to mothers whose children have been killed during the invasion of Gaza, I have seen the Jewish-only roads leading to ever-expanding settlements in the West Bank.”

“This kind of colonial occupation cannot continue,” she added. “As a Jew and a U.S. citizen, I feel obligated to rise up and speak out against stop these crimes being committed in my name and with my tax dollars.”

It is a pity that Rae was harmed at all. But she freely speaks her mind and is not shot in the hospital, like the Assad regime that you support Ghat does to injured protesters.

I adress a special thanks to Joshua for Nikolaos Van Dam’s article and my best whishes in those hard times

AI(r)G

(r stands for racist)

appointed lier

to facts and truth you still oppose your lies. Can you show any evidence that injured protesters were shot dead in public hospitals ?
