Nothing new under the sun. It seems like dictators are uncapable of facing changes. What is the reason of being near to collapse and being unable to make any concession? I do not understand. Is the same nature of the regime and its corrupted alliances causing this paralysis?

Syria commando
Why do say keep an eye on Qamishli?

Very disappointing. Nothing new. Repackaging and rehashing earlier speeches: conspiracies, germs, chaos..etc..

Well, since he has a penchant for reiteration, let me reiterate: Mr. President, your regime can not and will not ever reform.

Nothing the pres said or will say will make the opposition happy,they are interested in only one thing THE CHAIR,they are falling in the same trapp they are blaming the regime for.The opposition way of negotiation is this:they will step on the regim,squeez his neck,turn him blue ,and then ask him for immediate reforms befor he gives his last breaths.All that done peacefully of course,with the help of papa Rajab ,aunt Hillary,grandpa Sarkozi,uncl Hamad under the production of BIBI Inc.The Russian bear and the Chinese lion and the Persian tigers have been keeping BIBI’s employees away.

Assad is certainly losing it with his conspiracy theories. The man that told the WSJ in that there will not be problems in Syria is clearly detached from what is going on around him. Somebody should remind him that he has been ruling Syria for the last 11 years and that Syria’s situation is his fault.

11 years are not enough?. probably he needs 40 more years. his son could also continue his vsison till the end of 21 century.
Enough is emough.
But where is the opposition? very slow. Halab started to wake up. damascus still in different planet.
the Vatican is considering declaring Rami Makhlouf a saint. but one minister who prefers to keep his name anonymous is concerned Rami may move to vatican and start a “business” here. and potentially rob the country.
The italian mafia like him.

The message in the president speech as Abughassan wrote is good, I didn’t have any expectation of the speech but in general it reflects the situation in more realistic way than fantasy or only good wishing, August is not that far and a new political party law is in the process already, things will take some time to be materialized, we can’t see Syria changing from dictatorship to democracy in a blink, nobody can do that.
Dialouge can get Syrians much more goods than street protests, protesters should form groups and some kind of political forum to be ready to speaks on their behalf when the time comes, and it will only work if we all decided to go through it putting Syria best interest as our priorities, oppositions and regime a like.

SC,
I understand your point of a regional war being very close to erupt and I wish that you are wrong.

S.N.K
Whatever the president will say or promise the angry , grumpy, vision-less, plan-less, solution-less uprising organizers will say no to it, because they have nothing to talk about or to offer, but destruction, foreign intervention, social and economic collapse of Syria, if they ‘think’ rationally or have any good plan or vision or even care of Syria unity and Syrians welfare one bit they will be already negotiating with the regime, but the EMPTINESS and the dangerous UNKNOWN is all they got.

AIG,

Tell the truth to the participants here. At the Zionist Elders meeting we just attended, we paid the thousands of Syrian protestors to risk their lives and go out in the street.

Apparently, they have no other source of income.

Proof, for the pro-regime goons who like to accuse anyone who doesn’t share their affection and deification of Bashar the Butcher of being a non-Syrian living outside Syria. in your face fools:

also note my strategic use of a bag of Bizr Shams to blend in with the min7ibak crowd, who as you can see is composed of a few Baath activists leading some clueless street kids in chants, with profanity used as the next clip shows:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbaMez4B39M

Kids chant “Ya Obama Ya 3rsa, bidna n7arer el Aqsa” while behind them families with kids sit at the Cafes. Yup, that’s the real level of thinking of the pro-regime crowd, nothing but vulgarity and violence, even toward kids. Note also the obvious sectarian chants about Qirdaha, and the swearing at AlJazeera channel. Previously they had chanted that infamous “toz mara tanyeh fe amreka wa bretanya” that was heard during Gaddafi speeches, guess we know where their inspirations come from now!

اشتون تعلن عن خيبة املها من خطاب الاسد والاتحاد ذاهب لتوسيع العقوبات ضد سورية

اعلنت كاثرين اشتون المفوضة العليا لشؤون السياسة الخارجية والامن في الاتحاد الاوروبي للصحفيين في لوكسمبورغ يوم الاثنين 20 يونيو/حزيران حيث عقد لقاء وزراء الخارجية لدول الاتحاد الاوروبي، اعلنت ان الاتحاد الاوروبي ينوي توسيع العقوبات المفروضة على سورية.

وقالت اشتون: “نستعد لتوسيع العقوبات المفروضة على سورية، ونندد بحزم بالاضطهادات المستمرة في البلاد”. كما اعربت عن خيبة املها من الخطاب الذي القاه الرئيس بشار الاسد.

وايد وزراء الخارجية الاوروبيون اعلان بان كي مون الامين العام للامم المتحدة حول ضرورة اجراء تحقيق مستقل وشفاف من اجل تحديد المسؤولين عن اندلاع العنف في سورية. ودعا الوزراء السلطات السورية الى وقف استخدام العنف ضد المتظاهرين، كما دعوا المحتجين الى ضبط النفس لكي لا يتعدى احتجاجهم اطار المظاهرات السلمية.

وجرى التأكيد في بيان صحفي نشر في اعقاب الاجتماع الوزاري على ان هذه الازمة لا يمكن تسويتها إلا عن طريق عملية سياسية، وان الاتحاد الاوروبي يدعو السلطات السورية الى البدء بحوار وطني حقيقي وشامل والشروع في اصلاحات سياسية هامة.

واشار الوزراء الى ضرورة اطلاق سراح كافة المشاركين في الاحتجاجات الذين تم اعتقالهم وكافة المعارضين الذين يقبعون في السجون. ودعوا ايضا دمشق الى السماح بوصول موظفي المنظمات الانسانية الدولية الى المناطق التي شهدت اعمال العنف، بما في ذلك بعثة المفوضية العليا للامم المتحدة لحقوق الانسان.

هذا وكان الاتحاد الاوروبي قد فرض في وقت سابق حظرا على توريدات السلاح والمعدات الشرطية الى سورية، بالاضافة الى منع كبار المسؤولين السوريين من دخول اراضي الاتحاد وجمد اصولهم المالية في اوروبا.

You are THE economically successful paranocracy of the region, normal that you pay!

Ya Aboali,
As long as you post and curse, I am your fan since this is the living proof of progresses on the Syrian ground.

By Agence France-Presse, Updated: 6/20/2011
Syria’s Assad offers dialogue, rejects ‘chaos’
President Bashar al-Assad said on Monday that dialogue could lead to a new constitution and even the end of his Baath party’s monopoly on power, but that he refused to reform Syria under “chaos.”

His remarks were condemned by pro-democracy activists who vowed that the “revolution” — now in its fourth month — must go on.

Assad spoke as European foreign ministers prepared to beef up sanctions on the embattled president and Britain demanded that he “reform or step aside.”

French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said Assad had reached a “point of no return” by brutally repressing protesters.

After widespread condemnation of his regime’s crackdown, Assad said in a televised speech at Damascus University that the country was at a “turning point.”

He said dialogue was under way that could lead to a new constitution and raised the possibility of elections and an end to the ruling Baath party’s dominance, a key opposition demand, while warning the economy was on the verge of collapse.

“We can say that national dialogue is the slogan of the next stage,” Assad said. “The national dialogue could lead to amendments of the constitution or to a new constitution.”

Reform was “a total commitment in the interest of the nation,” he added.

Assad offered condolences to the families of “martyrs” from the unrest rocking the country since mid-March, but said there could be “no development without stability, no reform in the face of sabotage and chaos.”

“We make a distinction between those (with legitimate grievances) and the saboteurs who represent a small group which has tried to exploit the goodwill of the Syrian people for its own ends,” said Assad.

His third speech to the nation since the protests broke out was buoyed by a Russian pledge to block Western moves against him at the United Nations.

Witnesses and opposition activists said the speech was followed by protests in the northern city of Aleppo, in the flashpoint province of Idlib in the northwest, the central regions of Homs and Hama and in Damascus suburbs.

“The protesters condemned the speech which branded them as saboteurs, extremists,” the head of the London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Rami Abdel Rahman, told AFP by telephone.

“The demonstrators are calling for freedom and dignity.”

Abdel Rahman said authorities arrested 60 demonstrators in Aleppo over the past 24 hours.

According to Abdel Rahman’s group, the violence has so far claimed the lives of 1,310 civilians and 341 security force members.

Opposition activists said Assad’s speech failed to specify concrete steps — namely the pullout of troops from besieged cities — and only deepened the crisis.

The Coordination Committee, an umbrella group of activists, called for “the revolution to carry on until all its aims have been achieved.”

“We consider any dialogue useless that does not turn the page on the current regime,” it said in a statement received by AFP.

Prominent human rights lawyer Anwar al-Bunni, who was freed from five years in prison last month, called Assad’s speech “disappointing.”

“The key demands made by the people were not mentioned and the existence of a political crisis has been ignored,” he said.

In a first reaction to the speech, British Foreign Secretary William Hague said on Twitter it was “disappointing & unconvincing.”

“Little new on how reforms will be implemented & when, or how he will end violence,” he tweeted.

Juppe told reporters in Luxembourg: “Some believe that there’s still time for him to change his ways and commit to a (reform) process. For my part, I doubt it. I think that the point of no return has been reached.”

Their comments came as EU foreign ministers prepared to expand sanctions against Assad’s regime, according to a draft resolution to be adopted later on Monday.

The EU has been looking at adding firms and a dozen people to a blacklist of 23 people targeted by an asset freeze and travel ban which already includes Assad and key allies.

Western governments have also been circulating a draft resolution at the Security Council that would condemn Assad’s crackdown on dissent, but Russia warned it could veto to block any such move.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said in an interview on Monday with the Financial Times that he feared the text would be used as cover for Libya-style military action — which he described a “meaningless military operation.”

He said Russia would use its right of veto.

Meanwhile, as International Committee of the Red Cross chief Jakob Kellenberger began a two-day trip to Syria, the authorities took diplomats and journalists to what they said was the site of a mass grave of people killed by “armed groups.”

The third such “mass grave” near the restive northern town of Jisr al-Shughur, the focus of military operations since June 12, contained eight bodies.

He is dying his hair black, like Mubarak. The axis he is forming Syria-Iran-Rusia-China with connections to Lebanon can not make any sane Turk happy. The rummors about Russian flags in some pro-government demonstrations can not add comfort to Turkey, so is the alleged Russian navy base in Lattakia. I dont believe one or two blogs that said that some high ups in Syria were talking about Iskenderun, nobody can be that stupid, but then who knows. The whole thing goes counter to any things evisioned or planned by Turkey. Most of the oil ports of SE Turkey are within easy missiles range from Lattakia. Suddenly the anti-missile ships of the US navy and thus NATO and the carrier force in the east Med. start to make sense to the Turkish armed forces. In the border of Hattai province Syrian tanks and armoured carriers are within the range of Turkish weapons. Most probably Turkish drones, some of them made in Israel, that were doing all kind of jobs in Afganistan, are now flying over that border taking pictures. Any stray bullet or missile can realy start things. And there are people there who will be glad to start the celebration.

Assad Speaks, the Protests Continue — and the Kurds Come Into Play
Posted: 06/20/11 11:43 AM ET

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-josef-olmert/post_2136_b_880441.html?view=print

President Bashar Assad gave his first speech in two months to a carefully selected gathering of dignitaries at the University of Damascus, but it was not a game changer. As soon as the speech ended, thousands thronged the streets in many Syrian towns, including suburbs of the capital, chanting their displeasure with the leader. Bashar Assad repeated the old allegations about conspiracies inspired by unspecified countries, but the old goods seem to have no effect anymore. The uprising continues and with it the merciless crackdown.

In recent days the protest and the retaliatory indiscriminate killings took place in the heavily Kurdish northeast region of Syria. A book published some years ago by K. Yildiz referred to the Kurds of Syria as “the forgotten people”. Not anymore. The Kurdish population of Syria numbers two million, and mainly in the Jazeera region along the borders with Turkey and Iraq, separated from their ethnic brothers through the artificial demarcation of boundaries in the aftermath of the First World War and the demise of the Ottoman Empire.

A large population of Kurds has resided for generations in the big cities, including Damascus and Aleppo. In fact, members of this group played a significant role in the early history of independent Syria. The first three military dictators of Syria, Husni Zaim, Sami Hinawi and Adib Shishakli were of Kurdish descent. Yet the Kurds of the Jazeera were always a thorn in the side of the Syrian state, maintaining their traditional way of life. The Ba’ath regime, coming to power in 1963, decided to resolve this problem by initiating a policy of Arabization of the Jazeera. The prominent Kurdish historian Ismet Cheriff Vanly wrote in the late 1960’s about attempts at ethnic cleansing of the Kurds, but the Ba’ath regime failed.

Northeast Syria is still mainly Kurdish, so the regime enforced an iron-fist policy there, while neglecting completely its economic development. The inevitable results were poverty, near starvation due to the dwindling water resources, mass immigration to the big cities, and inevitably growing Kurdish political radicalization.

In 1986 and 2004, there were violent outbursts of angry Kurds, which were typically quelled by the use of brute force. The Kurds may have been forgotten but they were not quiet. While Syria repressed it own Kurdish population, it encouraged, for many years, subversive anti-Turkish activities by Kurdish elements from the Kurdish Workers Party (PKK), operating from its territory. This Ba’athi dangerous game came to an abrupt end in October 1998, when Hafiz Assad capitulated to a Turkish ultimatum and removed the PKK from its territory, including their leader, Abdallah Ucalan, who surprisingly enough found himself in a Turkish jail some weeks later…

Now, the Kurdish question seems to get back to the limelight, as the Syrian regime loses its grip over large parts of the country. The Kurds of the Jazeera were slow to react to the uprising in Syria. They are Sunni Muslims as most of the protesters are, but they constitute a distinct ethnic minority, and this is the prime motivation for their behavior. They remembered that their past protests against the regime failed to elicit support among the Sunni Arabs, and they preferred sitting on the fence, but the ongoing protest and the increasing likelihood of collapse in Damascus, finally brought them to the streets. The killings in Deir A Zor and in Qamishli will not stop their protest, as the killings in the rest of Syria will fail to put an end to the uprising there.

With that happening, the Kurds are going to play their traditional role in Middle East politics — that of the inevitable victims of geopolitical circumstances. The Turks are increasingly worried about the Kurdish situation in Syria, and they are openly threatening to intervene there militarily, while the PKK has intensified its operations in Turkey itself. That is not good news for the oppressed Kurds of the Jazeera, which can expect no sympathy from the Syrian regime. This is a classic situation of being between the hammer and the anvil, something that is not new for the Kurds, who continue to be the largest ethnic minority in the Middle East without an independent state of its own.

This is a tragedy, and not the least of the tragedies that befall upon Syria, something that Bashar Assad’s latest speech did nothing to stop.

Until now , I refrained to report on some facts I cannot substantiate more than saying that these very reliable witness are not pro regime :
At the beginning of the protests :
She has been offered a large sum of money by a taxi driver driver if she can mobilize her friends for an anti regime . The man also said he was smuggling arms through the border.
Another told me that during the anti regime protests he has seen some anti regime gangsters was shooting at the anti regime protesters to create chaos.
Today , in Aleppo, the only protest is the usual students in the University dormitories . As everybody knows these students are not from Aleppo but from other cities.

Everything with Bashar is the same old shit rehashed. He is a man who has learned nothing and forgotten nothing. He is incapable of change. He needs to go.

this is what the people of Homs thought of Assad and his speech, jeering and throwing shoes at his picture:

This was a very clumsy attempt to buy some more time. I’m not sure that Turkey can be fooled by such a crude maneuver. Turkey’s ultimatum ends in 5 days, just in time for another Friday.
.

and here too, the people of Kafar Nibol give Assad the shoe treatment:

Shout loud enough on Syria, because it will help cover Bahrain (but there of course, it is only ‘claims’)
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/bahraini-leadership-faces-new-claims-that-torture-took-place-in-hospital-2299944.html

About the speech you can really take away a few simple messages

– Syria was always a target for conspiracies, and these events are not different, the origins of this last one started with Louis Daguerre inventing the camera in 1829, and Martin Cooper inventing the Mobile phone in 1973 (both of which are of course Zionists), so as you can see they have been planning for almost 200 years.

– We have 64000 fugitives roaming around the country, so expect the number of dead terrorists (also known among Syrians as innocent civilian martyrs) to rise from 1500 to 60000-plus in the few coming days/weeks.

– The terrorists in Jisr had advanced weaponry, they even had anti-aircraft weapons (no seriously he did say that), they also had advanced communication devices (cell phones and laptops both of which are “new” and “advanced” technologies introduced to the public in 1973 and 1981 respectively).

– Once we quell this uprising, we will be asking the wealthy about what they did to support the Syrian economy (pound), after all financing this oppressive regime is a “patriotic duty”.

– Changing the constitution/new laws require a Parliament, so after we elect a new Baathist Parliament they (the newly “freely” elected MPs) will discuss amending or changing the constitution, this will only take 3 to 5 months, barely enough time to hunt down the 64000 fugitives.

Aboali

The guy chanting had a weird accent, definitely not Alepine, after all we don’t say نزلت حلب عالسيحة.

He looks very bad, if you ask me. When I saw him on TV today, this reminded me of a corpse that has to be painted and dyed, to make it look a bit more lively. A colorful mummy. And he looks extremely slim and gloomy. Most probably he lost his appetite. And his annoying and pointless giggles are no more (that’s a good thing though). I would recommend a general checkup. He looks sick of worries.
.

Jad,

You are right, they should do what the regime does, arrest pro regime demonstrators and torture them.

Who is in power? Assad. Who has to act in a smart way or go? Assad. When I read these posts of yours it becomes clear that you are pro-regime. Otherwise, you would be criticizing both sides at least or yu would accept the fact that since Assad has been in power for the last 11 years he bears the most responsibility for the situation and he has to act to solve it peacefully. So far Assad has acted liked a detached idiot.

http://youtu.be/BFvkSck5sM0

I think Bashar is an intelligent man. You don’t change a constitution that has been here for more than 40 years in 3 weeks. Any other precise announcement he would have made about changes not only would have been met with the usual ‘too little, too late” but also considered as ridiculous by people who know what it is to change radically a system of governance.
In Egypt and Tunis, they are planning to push the election even further. Any change takes planning and time.
The ones who think changes in a country can be done just by announcing them are childish or ill intentioned. Any new law in the US takes years to be announced, more than a year to be approved and more months to be implemented.
For the nerds in Sweden, it is a simple as a Windows reboot.
I think his speech was balanced, he did not look panicky or worried. I think he is holding very well and will stand until what he says is accomplished. Let demonstrations against him go on, it won’t change much. Neither Cruela Catherine Ashton and the dalmatians can do much in creating a diversion from the economical disaster looming the E.U.

كلينبرغر بعد لقائه سفر والمعلم.. ارتياح لإجراءات القيادة السورية في الدفاع عن حياة مواطنيها وأمنهم

أبدى رئيس اللجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر جيكوب كلينبرغر بعد لقائه الدكتور عادل سفر رئيس الحكومة السورية ووليد المعلم وزير الخارجية، ارتياحه لما اتخذته الحكومة من إجراءات في دفع وتعميق مسيرة الإصلاح على الصعد السياسية والأمنية والقضائية والإعلامية وأعرب عن ارتياح اللجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر للإجراءات التي تقوم بها القيادة السورية للدفاع عن حياة مواطنيها وأمنهم واستقرارهم والحفاظ على الممتلكات العامة والخاصة واستعادة الأمن والأمان للبلاد.

وكان رئيس مجلس الوزراء عادل سفر بحث مع رئيس اللجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر جيكوب كلينبرغر الأوضاع الراهنة في سورية وماخلفته من أضرار جسيمة جراء الأعمال الإجرامية التي تنفذها التنظيمات الإرهابية المسلحة وماتقوم به من تدمير وتخريب وقتل وترويع للمواطنين.

كما تناول اللقاء استعراض الآليات الملائمة للتعاون والتنسيق بين اللجنة ومنظمة الهلال الأحمر العربي السوري للوقوف على الوقائع ومعرفة الحقائق في المدن والمناطق التي تعرضت لاستهداف التنظيمات الإرهابية المسلحة ودعم جهود الهلال الأحمر السوري في توفير وتقديم الاحتياجات الأساسية والمساهمة في إعادة المهجرين السوريين في تركيا إلى منازلهم وبيوتهم الذين أجبروا على تركها من قبل العصابات الإجرامية.

ونوه رئيس مجلس الوزراء بدور اللجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر في خدمة القضايا الإنسانية وأعرب عن دعم الحكومة لجهودها بما يمكنها من أداء مهامها وواجباتها الإنسانية لافتا إلى أهمية متابعة أوضاع المواطنين السوريين في الجولان السوري المحتل ومعاناتهم الإنسانية والاقتصادية في ظل الاحتلال وممارساته التي تشكل تحديا للقوانين والأعراف الدولية.

من جانبه أبدى كلينبرغ ارتياحه للإصلاحات لما اتخذته الحكومة من إجراءات في دفع وتعميق مسيرة الإصلاح على الصعد السياسية والأمنية والقضائية والإعلامية وأعرب عن تقديره للدعم الذي تحظى به اللجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر بما يمكنها من أداء المهام والواجبات المنوطة بها في المجالات المختلفة.

كما استعرض وليد المعلم وزير الخارجية والمغتربين مع كلينبرغر خلال استقباله له التطورات الأخيرة في سورية وما تقوم به الحكومة من أجل إعادة الأمن والاستقرار إلى البلاد وتعزيز مسيرة الإصلاحات التي أعلن عنها السيد الرئيس بشار الأسد على الصعد كافة وأوضح الوزير المعلم ما ارتكبته تنظيمات إرهابية مسلحة من قتل وترويع للمدنيين وإشاعة الفوضى في عدة مدن ومنها جسر الشغور التي أجبر سكانها على تركها حيث أكد المعلم بأن هؤلاء الأهالي بدؤوا بالعودة إلى ديارهم بعد أن تمكن الجيش من إعادة الأمن والاستقرار إلى المدينة والمناطق المحيطة بها تلبية لنداء مجلس الوزراء وللجهود التي تبذلها منظمة الهلال الأحمر العربي السوري.

وذكر الوزير المعلم لكلينبرغر بأنه وانطلاقا من مبدأ الشفافية فقد نظمت وزارة الخارجية والمغتربين اليوم رحلة إطلاعية إلى جسر الشغور للبعثات الدبلوماسية والمنظمات الدولية المعتمدة في دمشق للاطلاع عن كثب على الواقع هناك.

وقد أبدى كلينبرغر ارتياح اللجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر للإجراءات التي تقوم بها القيادة السورية في تحمل مسؤولياتها للدفاع عن حياة مواطنيها وأمنهم واستقرارهم والحفاظ على الممتلكات العامة والخاصة واستعادة الأمن والأمان للبلاد.

وفي الختام عبر الوزير المعلم لكلينبرغر عن تقديره للانشطة الإنسانية التي تقوم بها منظمات الهلال والصليب الأحمر ومنها منظمة الهلال الأحمر العربي السوري التي قامت بدور فاعل في تقديم الاحتياجات الإنسانية للمواطنين خلال الأزمة الراهنة.

I really enjoy the way you, Israelis are jumping in this blog, hysterically saying that it was a bad speech etc..
What’s going on with you? You are not the ones to judge. We didn’t give a damn about your leader’s speech with the yoyos in the US congress, so please calm down.
Mind your own apartheid country! It needs a serious overhaul. When is Bibi going to announce it? when he’ll be in a coma maybe?

The protesters do not want freedom or democracy. We saw their ‘democracy’ as they cut off heads, raped women, hanged innocent people and desecrated their bodies for follow a different religion, and killed many people and put them into mass graves. These people are Islamist barbarians. Stop trying to reason with them, because they cannot be reasoned with. Nothing you offer them will make them happy, as they will just keep changing their demands and refuse dialog. It’s time to put them in their graves. These people don’t deserve any rights or freedom. The only thing they deserve is a bullet in their heads. These people have no brains. It’s time to to filter the human beings from the mutants.

video very clearly showing police firing on unarmed protesters in Homs last Friday

They are not shooting directly at anyone, you moron. And who are you to say that they are unarmed ‘protesters?’ Were you there? Zionist filth.

Why Discuss,

Israel is a democracy thank you. If Israelis do not like Bibi, they will vote him out.

As for being hysterical it is you. You cannot stand even a little criticism, you are so antidemocratic. You are against freedom of speech and a free press because you are antidemocratic. You are peeing in your pants because the truth about Assad is coming out. Why is that? Why are you afraid of the truth?

It is time for Assad to go instead of dragging Syria with him into the abyss. Nobody can keep the brave Syrians down in their quest for freedom and dignity. And if you think democracy in Syria is bad for Israel, why don’t you support change instead of backing the Rabbit of the Golan and his regime that knows only how to attack Syrians?

#32

What SYRIAN KNIGHT said should be accepted by most radical anti-regime by only changing some 6 or 7 words:

(…) The supporters do not want freedom or democracy. We saw their ‘democracy’ as they cut off heads, raped women, hanged innocent people and desecrated their bodies for follow a different religion, and killed many people and put them into mass graves. These people are anti-democratic barbarians. Stop trying to reason with them, because they cannot be reasoned with. Nothing you ask them will make them happy, as they will just keep not acomplishing their offers and refuse dialog. It’s time to put them in their graves. These people don’t deserve any rights or freedom. The only thing they deserve is a bullet in their heads. These people have no brains. It’s time to to filter the human beings from the mutants (…)

These words are the words of an animal who really merites not life. This is a shame on you Syrian Knight, you are a stupid. Because of people like you syria is suffering these days.

Israel a democracy?
Sorry, a place where it is not possible to have a civil wedding is NOT a democracy. You can read it in your own newspapers:
http://www.haaretz.com/news/national/israeli-couples-wed-at-mass-civil-ceremony-in-cyprus-1.368554
I quote:
“Religious authorities in Israel don’t perform interfaith weddings, although the country recognizes civil weddings conducted abroad. ”

You are importing and exporting religious fundamentalism, like you buddies the Americans. Full point.

Dear HS and fellow syrians

i suggest to contribute no more to this blog since our dear “opponents” dont produce any valuable arguments

it is useless non-efficient and time waisting

let them rather drown themselves under their own spam and filthy garbage without any contridiction

opposing contradiction only fuel their stupid rhetoric

besides why we should give them ideas that they can use in their ugly plot and improve their methods ? like stressing on their stupidity and lack of positiveness (where is your program, what practcal suggestions are you making ? etc…)

they can’t lie to us and they can’t fool us

so they are only lying to their own people by misinforming and hiding evidence

let them go on lying !

sooner or later they will taste the effects of such attitude

from time to time though let us insult them as they deserve just for the fun

les chiens aboient la caravane passe 🙂

Mina,

You are a joke of an extremist. Israel needs to improve like all countries, but it is a very successful democracy and part of the OECD. Syrians are trying to achieve rights Israelis have for decades like freedom of speech, free multi party elections, etc. And the brave Syrians will get them despite of all the regime supporters that cannot bear to see democracy and freedom finally come to Syria. You do not represent the freedom loving and dignity seeking Syrians. You represent a small sector who needs to subjugate the rest of the Syrians in order to keep their ill gotten gains.

If you are not afraid of the truth, let the free press in.
If Assad is really popular, let him compete in free elections.
But of course, you will not allow any of the above become you know the truth; Assad is a brutal dictator with little chance of winning any majority of the vote in Syria.

For someone as bombastic about Syrian Pride, it is very funny to be proud of all but Bashar, your national symbol, or is it cymbol……

DON QUIXOTES
I see rust on your armor. Or is that ……….. Nop, it is not dry blood, but it sure is brown.

I have no comment (for now) on the best speech since Churchil and Back to the Rathole

HS #41

is this فداء الدين طريف السيد عيسى his real name ?

too funny ! i guess he is the one whith the wahhabi black spot on the head that Dr Landis interviewd some time ago

Cher Vlad
Je n’avais pas vu votre proverbe avant mon dernier message !!

See you later in a civilized and peaceful place .

dear HS #46

in Syria hopefully

IMPALER WANNABE @ 44
Yup, loneliness does that to you, and yes you do and they are all Men7ebbak Crowd.

HSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS @ Any comment
You, Impaler wannabe, Don Quixote & civilized world…. You are deep, i like oxymoronic riddles.

ABOALI @ 38
Just noticed, you beat me to it. Well, you are beating me to the honor daily, you are mundass on the inside. Stay safe man.

IT WAS ABOUD @ 38
You too, stay safe. But ABOALI is still beating me to the honor of being Mundass on the inside.

@47 RAT

why do you call me impaler ?

i ignored that lonely rats masturbate in their tiny bleak hole

the more they masturbate, smarter they feel. This is your oxymoron. Keep it to yourself rat

and beware the snakes 🙂

Vlad,
Mr. ‘Jarbou3’ ‘جربوع’ (no offence but this is one of the real scientific name of Syrian Hamster) is implying to your name Vlad; Vlad the Impaler AKA Count Dracula.

IMPALER WANNABE
Your obsession with masturbation only equals Qnadhari’s obsession with Arooour. You have a lot in common. BTW: I know a good owel who doubles as psychologist, she can help you with your obsession.

I am not afraid of snakes anymore. Din’t you know, we broke the fear barrier three months ago, which your doctor called, respect for the state.

Have to go now, I have to get ready for the loyalist rally tomorrow, i heared they are giving away sunflower seeds. Yummy, my favorate meal. It is far better than the crappy feeding tabletts.

Bye now, try to saty sane, …..oops, another oxymoron.

SL, YOU are the stupid animal who does not value life. There was no killing before you Islamist retards showed up demanding Sharia law, segregation, death to minorities, etc all under the guise of ‘democracy and freedom.’ It was not the government who did anything, it was YOU low lives. Fuck you and the pig’s ass you came out of. You are the ones ruining Syria. There is no value to your own lives. Not even you scumbags value your own lives. You go out on the streets demanding violence, knowing full well that you may get shot by a terrorist trying to cause panic, but you don’t care. That is how all Islamists are. They don’t care about life. They only care about Sunni domination. Do you think the terrorists who flew planes into buildings cared about their lives or the lives they took??? NO! How about the countless barbarians who blow themselves up in Iraq every day just to do “God’s work” and kill two dozen “Heretical Shia???” NO. You Islamists are dangerous enemies. You give cancer to any country you touch. You are not afraid to die doing “God’s work.” Islamists are the lowest of the low. It’s time to send them to the lowest area possible; a little place us HUMAN BEINGS call Hell. You are not human, and no one like you is human. You are so full of shit. If Syria had ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT, there would be 100,000 people dead right now. ANY other government. Mubarak killed 900 people in 2 weeks, and there was not even any armed terrorists. The United States killed 1.5 MILLION people in Iraq without remorse. Now we have around 1,400 people dead in Syria in THREE MONTHS, plus over 500 killed by your terrorist friends. How many people would Mubarak have killed if he sustained steady attacks for 3 MONTHS??? You are looking at close to 11,000!! And yet NOBODY in the international community criticized Mubarak! NO ONE! They are all hypocrites! The US was CRYING to see Mubarak the murderer go! They didn’t want him to leave even though his ouster had popular support! Only a few Islamists in Syria want the government removed, and suddenly, the international community cares about the Syrian people??? Go choke on a pork chop.

JAD #50

is it so ? unbelievable

i fixed this as you can notice

thanks

syrian knight,
it is men like you , we need to get rid off. we have no room for you in syria.
on another note: bisho doesnt understand: ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!,
bashar has yet to show us , that he is up for positive criticism, and that no one is above the law…so far he has FAILED miserably.
to summarize:
i want a syria, where i have the right to criticize any one holding a formal position. be it, the president, the minister or the police chief. bashar still thinks hes immune to fault, he believes hes a prophet of some sort thats not prone to error. *this is whats devastating the nation*

“If Israelis do not like Bibi, they will vote him out.”

What is worrying is that you like this moron!

It says at lot about you Israelis and your fake Walt Disney apartheid democracy with “freedom of expression” and “economical success” that you repeat at nausea as if you want to convince yourself.
And hell with the palestinians refugees, they don’t deserve freedom of expression because their land has been stolen by the ‘God chosen people’…
I guess you prefer the yoyos of the US congress, 29 jumps in an hour! They should enter in the Guiness Book!

#52 SYRIAN KNIGHT

your are right.

Mubarak stole 40 billions USD from his people. Barely 2 billions were “generously” offered back to Egypt. Not yet though only a promise by now. He leaves a fallen state with tremendous poorness and misery. With the MB taking over the power in the next months.

Syria is not a fallen state despite :

– heavy international sanctions
– unprecedented drought
– nearly 800 000 iraki refugees if not more, with their children and youth admitted for free in public schools and universities
– passive rampant sabotage (including low-level corruption) – by 20% of the population who dont accept the idea that the president is not a sunni muslim
– contunal efforts from KSA and its lebanese allies aka Haririe and cie to harm by all ways
– oil revenues diminishing
– clanic struggles
– sectarian divisions
– inefficiency of large sectors of obsolete public adminsitration
– inappropriate economy system
– stupid oppostion with no ideas and no program whatsoever
– state of war with Israel
– etc … etc…

and yet from 2008 to 2010 Syria achieved an avrage 5% GNP growth (more if you take in consideration the underground economy)

how much Assad’s assets were frozen in foreign banks. Could anybody dare tell ? Peanuts

Wannabe Syrian Hamster

You are staying so long in the darkness of your rathole that not you are becoming blind but you are subjected to hallucinations.
Get out and join the peaceful demonstrations asking for reforms and blood, that would do you good.

@52

“Fuck you and the pig’s ass you came out of”

I don’t know what’s sadder, the fact that someone would write such a juvenile sentence, or the fact that it isn’t the most juvenile sentence to ever be typed out by a hysterical Baathist.

#58 ABBOUD

i suggest for you the RUB3 AL KHALI in your cherished Saudia

hurry ! 72 virgins are waiting there just for you

plenty of room for you and your alikes. You will be free to rule omnipotently there , apply your chariah and chase the oxymoronic hamsters …

Gentlemen,

It looks like your swears have caused a panick among Canadian protestants and Aleppine Syro-Canadian teenagers with a Turkish background and a French education (but yet unable to speak French, until now).

Here is a link to an article about the visit of US Amb and Red Cross president to the 3rd mass grave of Josr al shughur,
http://www.presstv.ir/detail/185564.html

I hope they’ll give a phonecall to Kitty Ashton.

Sorry, but I’m still shaking my head in bewilderment at the whole “Fuck you and the pig’s ass you came out of” business. I can imagine junior’s phone calls with world leaders;

Erdogan: President Assad, you should take care of the refugees on the borders and stop killing demonstrators. Please sir, for the sake of regional peace and stability.

Bashar: Fuck you and the Ottaman pig’s ass you came out of!

Somedays, the Baathists make things so easy for us, you wonder why the revolution even needs people to post anything here.

thank you syrianknight what you have writtne is 100% what most syrians think!
the oppositions so called freedom is sharia and they dont even have a leader, maybe he’s still in jihad training to swipe the few remaining christians in the middle east and the preaching to his fellow western muslims to take advantage of their freedom!
jeez islam doesn’t like what goes around comes around do they! and they certainly don’t beleive in equality do they now!

By the way i luv that whole pig ass comment

#9 ABOALI

is this your proof ? very convincing

#60 hmmmm, well if you’d like even more proof I could always spray paint in big golden 10 meter high bold font “VLAD IS AN IDIOT” on the sides of the citadel. But that would be a bit extreme don’t you think?

Nope, perhaps I’ll get the Baathists and street kids to sing you a song along the lines of “Ya Obama Ya 3arsa, bidna n7arer el aqsa”

Aboud, #58

You should send that “exclusive” account of the Asad-Erdoghan phone call to someone like Thomas Friedman. It will make front page news on the NY Times and you’ll be the most famous anonymous “eyewitness” in the world!
