Suicide Bombing Changes Nature of the Syrian Revolution

From Foreign Affairs

Two suicide bombs outside of government security locations in Damascus killed 40 civilians and soldiers and wounded 100 according to Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Mekdad — as reported by the government’s Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA).

The attacks have come after one of the most violent weeks since the beginning of the Syrian regime’s crackdown on uprisings nearly ten months ago, and was the first such assault seen in the capital of Damascus.

Iraqi political leaders canceled crisis talks scheduled for today and Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki threatened to end power sharing in the government after Baghdad saw a series of violent blasts.

Al Jazeera’s Rula Amin reported that: “The capital has been relatively quiet. If the government is trying to say this is the work of protesters or even al Qaeda sympathizers, the attack is in the heart of the capital and that makes the government look very vulnerable.”

Meanwhile, the British-based advocacy group, Avaaz, reported it has evidence that the death toll since the beginning of the government crackdown has reached 6,237civilians and soldiers, which includes 917 government forces, 400 children, and617 people whose deaths were a result of torture.

Opposition activists claim the government staged the attacks as part of a scheme to convince the Arab League delegation that arrived in Damascus on Thursday that there is no government crackdown, but that violence in the country has been the work of “armed terrorist gangs.”

I was asked by journalists today what I thought about the notion that the Syrian government planned the car bombs to provide a pretext for their increasingly violent crackdown on the opposition. It reminds me of the notion that Washington was behind the World Trade Center bombing to provide a pretext for invading Iraq. I don’t give either much credibility. Both fit a rather perverse “qui bono,” or “who benefits” text, but I shouldn’t think that either are likely. I am only surprised that we haven’t seen the use of suicide bombing sooner.

The context of the bombings are the growing frustration of the opposition. The Assad regime remains strong compared to opposition forces. The external opposition leaders – the NSC – do not have a strategy for bringing down the regime that is realistic. Following this week’s Tunis meeting, the SNC demanded immediate foreign intervention to protect the Syrian people and stop the regime. At the same time it demanded that opposition groups within the country forgo militarization. The SNC snubbed the Free Syrian Army which has been trying to put together a military option.  There is no likelihood that Western powers will intervene in Syria anytime soon. As the death-rate rises, opposition frustrations are also rising, increasing the probability that radical groups will begin to carry out suicide operations in an attempt to break the stalemate.

Law and order are also breaking down in Syria, which means that we should expect the spread of radical groups. The Syrian state, being one of the most intrusive and repressive in the Middle East, was able to thwart radical groups. As its capabilities decline, so will its ability to keep such groups from penetrating Syrian society. But the real reason for such bombings is the desperate political situation.  Until Syria produces an ability to resolve its conflicts by political means, the chances are that the daily diet of suicide bombings that have become a part of political life in Iraq, will also become common in Syria.

Benzene prices were raised in Syria from syp 44 to 50 (13.6 percent). This is further sign of the breakdown of the government’s ability to provide for the people as it used to. Sanctions are working.

…. Tabler added that the increasing militarization of the revolt and the exiled opposition’s growing support for armed action creates a policy dilemma for the United States. “We don’t have a policy for dealing with the fact that many people are taking up arms,” he said.

The Syrian authorities detained the prominent figure Abdul Azeez Al-Khair for a day while he was leaving the country at Damascus airport to travel to Cairo. He was going to participate in discussion with the Arab League as a member of the delegation from the National Coordination Body – NCB, that includes Haytham Manna, Saleh Mohammed and Rajaa Al-Naser. Although released, he has had his passport taken from him to keep him from joining opposition members abroad.

Seth Cropsey, a fellow at the Hudson Institute and a former US national security official, said he personally supports the deployment of special forces to the country. “Military intervention could be useful in the form of special operations forces that would help organize, train and equip groups that oppose Assad,” he told the Post. “I support the use of such forces, as well as intelligence assets” to help unseat the Syrian president,” said Cropsey, who also signed the petition….

A friend writes: “4 years ago, I met the general manager of one of the new private banks in Aleppo. We talked about staffing. He said his problem was recruiting senior people from the commercial bank of Syria. Why I asked. He said that their salaries are around syp 20,000 a year. He would entice them by paying them between syp 75,000 and 100,000 a month. None would come because they make multiples of that at the commercial bank of Syria outside their salaries. Every loan they make, they get paid a chunk personally.”

Assessing Assad – Foreign Affairs
The Syrian leader isn’t crazy. He’s just doing whatever it takes to survive.
BY BRUCE BUENO DE MESQUITA, ALASTAIR SMITH | DECEMBER 20, 2011

….Following the logic we set out in The Dictator’s Handbook, we believe Assad has been misunderstood and maybe, just maybe, even misjudged. In the book, we argue that no leader — not even a Louis XIV, an Adolf Hitler, or a Joseph Stalin — can rule alone. Each must rely on a coalition of essential supporters without whom power will be lost. That coalition, in turn, counts on a mutually beneficial relationship with the leader. They keep the ruler in office, and the ruler keeps them in the money. If either fails to deliver what the other wants, the government falls.

Assad is no exception. Just as he said, it is not his government. He cannot do whatever he wants. He might even be a true reformer, as many in the Western media believed prior to the Arab Spring, or he may be the brute he now appears to be. The truth is, he is doing what he must to maintain the loyalty of those who keep him in power. …

The Alawites make up 70 percent of Syria’s career military, 80 percent of the officers, and nearly 100 percent of the elite Republican Guard and the 4th Armored Division, led by the president’s brother Maher. In a survey of country experts we conducted in 2007, we found that Assad’s key backers — those without whose support he would have to leave power — consisted of only about 3,600 members out of a population of about 23 million. That is less than 0.02 percent….

if there is a true will to save Syria,the time to act is now.
Violence and dialogue can not mix,and a clear condemnation of violence must come from all sides if they want this process to succeed.I have read the claims and the counter claims but at the end it is Syrian blood that is being spilled and Syrian future that is being compromised.

Moscow’s Position: A Message to the Regime and Opposition in Syria –
12/23/11

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/raghida-dergham/syria_b_1167822.html

New York – Fear of Internationalization is a Syrian complex par excellence that led the regime in Damascus to sign the Arab League’s Protocol allowing Arab monitors into Syria to protect civilians. This move was made by the regime to avert UN Security Council (UNSC) measures, culminating in international sanctions against Syria. Russia has implicitly threatened to internationalize the Syrian crisis when it surprised Syrian President Bashar al-Assad by introducing a draft resolution in the UNSC earlier this week, forcing him to approve a process that will ultimately topple his regime through Arab and international accountability and monitoring. The UNSC and the Arab League have made a coordinated move as they withdrew impunity from the Syrian regime, while offering the chance for a dignified exit for Bashar al-Assad, if he so wishes. But should he presume that the chance for a dignified exit offered to him is a form of retreat, then Assad would be making one of his biggest mistakes yet – which are both numerous and startling. Today, the world is watching in terror as the Syrian authorities step up their crackdown on the protesters and as the odds for Syria sliding into civil war soar to new heights with dissent being forced into becoming an armed insurgency. With the situation as such, neither the U.S. nor the European members of the UNSC can sit idly by as security conditions deteriorate further while the Arab League prepares to send its monitoring mission. Surely, the League should have been better prepared in advance to deploy this mission, instead of waiting for Syria to sign the protocol then begin to put together the team of monitors and their terms of reference. The Arab League is a relative newcomer to this field and the Syrian authorities seem to be in a hurry to exploit the time period between its acceptance of the protocol and the formation of the team. They want to make a final push against rebel strongholds, before having to withdraw its troops in implementation of the Protocol.

There is some kind of race taking place between the Syrian regime’s campaign of security mop-up on the ground and a potential UN Security Council resolution that Russia may be compelled to push through in the event of continued Syrian miscalculations. Indeed, Russia, along with Iraq, had attempted to help Syria avoid internationalization and to persuade the regime to sign the Arab League protocol. Iraq, for its part, has convinced the Arab League to give Damascus more time and a way out claiming this would prevent Syria from falling exclusively into Iranian hands and heading for a sectarian war in the region. But Iran today is not in an enviable position as this country too finds itself caught between a rock and a hard place, no matter how it attempts to pretend that it is impenetrable.

The Iranian behavior at present is odd, cutting off the nose to spite the face, so to speak, as evident for instance in Iran’s severance of economic ties with the UAE, which is almost its only lifeline. Iran is also in a dilemma over the deterioration of conditions in Iraq as well as due to the drop of its currency’s exchange rate to its lowest level. This undermines its stability, particularly if further sanctions are to be imposed on Iran. The Islamic Republic is also extremely concerned by the situation in Syria, as a result of the conduct of the regime in Damascus in a manner that defies a sound strategy, and reason and logic. The leaders of the regime in Syria are acting with a mixture of hubris, arrogance and denial. Some among them believe that a wager on weakness and exhaustion in the ranks of Arab and European countries will pay off in the sense that water will soon be once more under the bridge. Others, meanwhile, are trying to buy time by pretending to cooperate and through trickery and deception that would keep the hammer from landing over the head of the regime in Damascus. Then there is a segment in the ranks of the regime that has decided that there is no choice other than a decisive security solution to the crisis, no matter the costs, and even if it leads to a bloody civil war – either as a means to keep the regime in power, or leaving power with a war that spares no one, the regime included.

It is said that some figures in the regime believe that implementing the Arab initiative is a chance for making a dignified exit from power. The monitoring mission is an opportunity for the regime to cooperate and a chance for a new page for the regime- as they see it. They believe this would ward off stepping down in a humiliating fashion and that cooperation might on the long run save the regime it from increasing pressures, particularly pressures of looming internationalization. But there are also those who understand very well that the monitoring mission – even though it was reduced from 500 to 100 monitors and the Arab League agreed to radical Syrian amendments to its scope – will be the countdown to the end of the regime. According to the Protocol, the Syrian forces would have to withdraw from cities and streets to their barracks, under the supervision of the monitors; the protesters would have the right to hold peaceful protests; the monitors would have the right to visit prisoners; Arab and international media would have the right to enter Syria without restriction. All these conditions are spelled out in the Arab Initiative, and they strike at the heart of the Baath Party’s tyranny and monopoly over power in the country.

It would have been better for the Arab League to entrust the task of creating this monitoring mission to the UN, a body that has more experience in this field. While it already accepts counsel and recommendations from the Secretariat of the UN, it now needs a quick mix of Gulf funds, actual partnership on the part of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in recruiting monitors, and practical preparations by the Arab and international media to rapidly deploy to Syria. Otherwise, the Arab League will have to ask the UN to carry out this assignment, especially if the bloody crackdown in Syria continues with a view to take advantage of the time wasted.

Some in the Syrian opposition and others accuse the Arab League of affording the regime in Damascus time at the expense of Syrian lives. Some see its reluctance as complicity. Others believe it to be a wise strategy as it lures the Syrian regime into internationalization betting on its violation of Arab agreements and its abuse of Arab good faith. But it is better for the Arab League to throw its weight behind a UNSC resolution that would restrain the Syrian regime and hand it an ultimatum that sanctions and accountability are inevitable should the regime continue with its deception. A tradeoff between a pan-Arab settlement and internationalization is no longer realistic, particularly when the dynamics on the Syrian arena and at the UN Security Council have since changed. European countries at the UNSC, led by Britain, France and Germany, are pushing the Arabs to request a UNSC resolution arguing that this is an important step in countering the Russian-led opposition at the UNSC. But the painful events that resulted in hundreds of deaths in the days that followed the Syrian signature of the Arab protocol have forced the European countries and the U.S. to stop hiding behind the Arab “leadership of the process” and to start putting pressure on Russia – the President of the UNSC this month – to expedite a resolution.

Russia has suddenly proposed its draft resolution, perhaps with a view to pull the rug from under the feet of the West and the Arabs who have worked closely together on a strategy to put pressure on Syria. However, there is a possibility that a radical change in Russian policy on Syria has taken place, prompting Moscow to decide that it is time for a firmer approach with Damascus and for withdrawing the cover of impunity afforded to the regime. It is clear that Russia has played a role in pushing Syria to sign the protocol on the monitoring mission. What is not clear is the extent of Russian earnestness in allowing the UNSC to issue a pertinent resolution. Moreover, it remains to be seen whether it had introduced its draft resolution as a gambit or a means to put pressure, or whether it is seriously intent upon putting it to the vote with slight amendments.

Whether to maneuver or whether Russia has abandoned the regime in Damascus, the Syrian opposition must heed the Russian messages and seek to take advantage whether this was a tactical mistake or a real change in Russian strategy. Indeed, Moscow is troubled by the rise of the Islamists to power in the countries that saw the Arab uprisings and is prepared to turn the table on the opposition – if it was forced to do so or if it decides that this would be in its interests – adducing in the process the militarization of the opposition, particularly by members of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Meanwhile, preventing Syria from descending into civil war is not the responsibility of the regime alone. The Syrian opposition must act in earnest and obtain guarantees from its various components that monopoly and exclusion are not in the offing. Here, responsibility is equally assigned – but not when it comes to the violence. Yet this does not negate the fact that increased militarization of the Syrian uprising may lead to accountability for the opposition as well, and not just the regime. It is a crucial stage of the utmost importance then, not only for the future of Syria, but also for the nature of Arab-International relations, the relations among permanent members of the UNSC, and Iran’s relationship with Syria and its surrounding, as well as the relations between the international community and Iran- a country that figures highly in the Syrian sphere today.

Ghufran, it was not a suicide attack. It was a car bomb, and the body was placed inside the car after the blast.

Also, the compound is always sealed off by strong metal barriers and barbed wire and is manned by guards with mahcine-gun bunkers.

As for it being an inside job, highly unlikely, State Security and Intelligence personell are highly loyal to the regime, deeply motivated, usually they are the types that will die with Basgar than betray him.

Gufran, clearly you think that the regime is not evil enough to do this. There is a defect in ur convictions.

Whoever wrote this article, THIS WAS NOT A SUCIIDE ATTACK, it was a car bomb, it has been confirmed by regime sources.

Use of military or intervention counted as Bashar best and strongest assets. Attempting to degrade this is quite an effort, and barring an all out war and invasion like Iraq, most likely will ends up a waste of resources.

Observer said:

It is impossible to approach the location of the security services they are fully protected and the entry to the streets is blocked and now more than ever.

It is impossible to find the plotters in 30 minutes after the blasts if they were booby trapped cars. If they were suicide bombers then there is no way to arrest a “suicide” bomber after he committed his “suicide”.

It is clear that the regime has accused the one element that fits its narrative of a fanatic conspiracy to destroy the country. They did not blame the opposition or the FSA by the one boogie man that would rally the international community to the rescue. This boogie man was not present in Syria before and had not operated in Syria to my information. To have it pop out all of a sudden is not credible.

Now for those that want desperately to believe the wonder boy may I ask does this mean that the plot is far more dangerous and widespread and therefore does it mean that the country is truly in a war? Does it mean that the security services are incapable of defending the country? Does it mean that the famed armed forces with their live ammunition drills are not capable of destroying the enemy being set up by the world wide conspiracy? Does it mean that the abolition of the state of emergency was a mistake and not a response to the demands for reforms?

The narrative is obsolete and the propaganda is stupid and the dear leader Kim/Hafez/Muammar/Saddam/ is dead. Long live the great successor perpetuating the dynasty of the most glorious intelligent genius fighter history has seen.

Please I have to buy Ray Ban shades to read SC from now on to feel at one with the Field Marshall appointed by the Great Party Congress at the unfortunate death of his Great Eternal Father.

Once this revolution is over and the regime is uprooted, I guess the Dear Professor will have to find another topic to occupy his time as there will be no further use of his expertise.

Lebanonization. Word related to the result of Syria and Israel intervention during 15 years Lebanon war. Specially the role of Syria in selective killings with snippers, terrorist attacks including trap bomb cars that aimed political leaders and personalities to divide all communities and to avoid any inter-lebasese agreement.

Lebanonzation of Irak. What has been possible due to the role played by Iran and specially the experticed Syria in methods described above. The continuos series of car bombs has been used as a tactics to divide iraqis and to avoid inter-iraqis agreements. The security apparatus controlling this attacks using third chia and sunna milicias or mafias has clear that not only sunna but also chia should be attacked to keep momentum and permanent hatred.

Irakization of Syria. This is the new episode where same actors with experience in Lebanon and Irak will try to create a psicological war against main urban citizens, to let them be afraid of illusional Al Qaeda and SLA to keep their support to the regime against rural and army insurgence.

Will next episode be Syrianization of Lebanon (relebanonization) or Jordan or simply a nuclear bomb in Iran?

Just a fool would think that the regime is not behind the car bombs. Just a fool would think that this president is not ready to kill their own security members to get political benefits.

Some 2 or 3 months ago someone in the media and networks spread a rumor about the regime preparing a mega-car-bomb or truck-bomb behind a security or military building. Here we have it.

You are very limited in your analysis. Anyone with a minimum experience in Middle East affairs knows who is the expert (name it Al Qaeda if you need to label it as evil) in this kind of attacks. This is the last thing I would expect from the syrian regime. But sadly today it has become true.

Call it bullshit if it lets you sleep better tonight.

Regarding 911 I think, after years, it´s clear that CIA let Al Qaeda members (related to pakistani services) operate freely. Or maybe the CIA organized the whole operation as a covert op. Jumblatt, Assad and many other personalities defended this idea from the very first day.

If someone had the real operation capability to make this kind of attacks, Bush Junior and Assad Junior would be dead now.

Why you want always to defend your fellow islamists. It was crystal clear that a bunch of terrorist jihadist islamist hijaked the flights and killed 3000 Americans. I do not think that the culture of suicide pumbing existed anywhere except amongst radical islamists. It was simply organized terrorist attack and Bush has noting to do with it.

Can you tell me one thing, only one thing your beloved opposition did wrong so at least I can believe you. You and your beloved MB fuckers do not want to admit any wrong doing. You are the cause of the trouble and the root of it. Kiss o7’tak 3ala om your analysis, fucker.

Our revolutionary colleagues on this board seem to believe “de-Nile ain’t just a river in Egypt”, but rather a strategy for the justification of their misguided cause. Their inability to even acknowledge the remote possibility that their “peaceful revolution” may include some savages reflects their “taqiyyah” ideology in justifying concealing any evil act that serves their cause well. In their fantasy, having a multiple personality disorder has its advantages, and need no cure.

In the heat of the moment people who claim the regime is behind this massacre failed to see what armed anti regime militia can accomplish by striking in the heart of Damascus:
1. It makes the security forces look weak and ready to be defeated
2. It attacks the regime theory that Damascus is safe and Damascus is neutral or even supportive of the regime.
3. It gives an indication of strength to the regime by those who claim that they can topple it by force.
4. It tells the AL that you are not needed, it is a war

Ghufran, Norman,
Just yesterday I linked what ‘Filth-man’ said, it was a clear threat..either Asad leave or else…the attack today is a clear message to the regime.
Al Akhbar article also claim that Iran also send a warning to Lebanon, Syria and Iraq about the coming attacks this is why HA announcement was quick to accuse the American.
I don’t think that the regime needs to do it in this way, it can do many things but this attack wont help it, why to kill its own men while it needs every one of them to keep it standing, it doesn’t make any sense.
I just noticed the ‘witness’ on SC who saw ‘white smoke’ not ‘black smoke’ from his place thousands of miles away from Damascus, he should work for Alkhanzeera, they are looking for some ‘zarqa2 alyamamet’ like him.

It hurted Hariri and Lebanon more than anybody else. Had Hariri not been killed now there would be no HA government in Lebanon. If Basha and their young cannibals or Moghnie and their clan of assassins were so stupid to do that it´s their fault. By destroying Hariri they avoided what was going to be an anti-syrian new government in Lebanon, lead by Hariri with Khaddam, Kanaan and other old guard sharks on his side. They had no choice but to make him disappear because Hariri had taken the decission to change Lebanon allies. And by killing him they assumed the consequences.

Maybe you believe the killer was Abu Adas and the Al Qaeda plot? Ha, Ha, Ha.

It is not unusual for Palestine’s proud intellectual Azmi Bishara (who was forced to flee his birth homeland to escape Zionist persecution on bogus charges; the same thing is now happening to the impressive and eloquent Hanin Zoabi, the daughter of Nazerath ???????)to disagree with anybody whenever he sees them going in a negative direction. Bishara supports the Syrian revolt and opposition, but he cannot accept foreign (particularly Western intervention). Any talk of SNC about Western intervention would lead to his valid criticism.

409. JUERGEN (from the last discussion thread)
Thanks for your reply and for being pro-Palestinian. Please exclude yourself from the previous comment’s talk about Zionists. I am posting below again so that you don’t have to go back:
“Zionism” was/is premised on the idea that Jews, and only Jews, had/have the right to have land in occupied Palestine. This is why the Jewish Agency is entrusted to own/give land only to the Jewish people. It is a racist idea.
As to Israeli colonialists, their views are racist because they think that it’s ok to colonize and build on Palestinians’ land. Thus, it’s not really much different to be “Zionist” or “Israeli colonialist” because in both ideas/ideals you rationalize stealing and occupying somebody else’s lands. You can see that all of Israeli colonies “cities,” “villages,” etc. were built because of al-Nakbah and al-Naksa:http://palestineremembered.com/
P.S., I originally joined this blog to comment ONLY on Syria and its ongoing and tragic reality. I love Syria so much. My Father went from the United States to marry my mother in Jerusalem. Their honeymoon was in Syria and Damascus. I still have the black and white pictures of their Syrian vacation. I have strong opinions on Syria, which I earlier had expressed. However, after seeing Zionists and Israeli colonialists are here to hypocritically advice Syrians and get free information while stirring conflict among Syrians and Syria-lovers on this blog, I have decided not to give them any information and arguments; which they would utilize to stir ????
YES, YOU ZIONISTS AND ISRAELI COLONIALISTS DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO READ THIS BLOG AND COMMENT ON IT. I respect your right to do so. But, I will not assist you in stirring conflict and ???? among Syrians and Syria-lovers.

P.S. (Again): Edward Said wrote an excellent article, which you can also find in “The Edward Said Reader,” entitled: “Zionism from the Standpoint of its Victims.” Please read it to know how Palestinians truly feel about Zionism and what it has done to them. This link may give you information on where to find this article: http://www.jstor.org/pss/466405
Here you can see a video For Edward Said, in which he supports peace, but he talks about occupation and Zionism:
“Edward Said on claims to the land and the occupation of Palestine”
http://electronicintifada.net/blog/mohammed-suliman/edward-said-claims-land-and-occupation-palestine

P.S. (Final Time): This is the last time I post here, which would be great news for many of you, because I really don’t have time to comment and reply to others’ comments. I wish Syrians freedom and peace! Also, I wish all of you who celebrate Christmas a Merry Christmas! To those who are Jewish: Happy Hanukkah! AND Happy New Year to ALL of You, including the Zionists!

I am waiting to see the leader of Al Qaeda claiming responsabilty for the attacks. No doubt, it will not come. Sorry, it was a good idea but not credible. This poor piece of paper proves nothing.

Come on, wake up guys. Just accept yourselves and your regime as it is.

Germany sees in the suicidal attacks a reason for Security Council action.  Churkin acknowledged that Damascus became the target for regime change by using excessive violence.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/12/23/us-syria-un-idUSTRE7BM1MX20111223
………
“If the requirement is that we drop all reference to violence coming from extreme opposition, that’s not going to happen,” Churkin told reporters.
“If they expect us to have arms embargo, that’s not going to happen,” he said. “We know what arms embargo means these days. It means that – we saw it in Libya – that you cannot supply weapons to the government but everybody else can supply weapons to various opposition groups.”
….
 said he “deplored” the suicide attacks, adding that they highlighted the need for Security Council action.
“It’s a sign of escalation, that the situation is rapidly deteriorating and underlines the need … for the council to act,” he said.
….
But Churkin said Damascus shared some of the blame for winding up in that position.

“Of course, it was the fault of Damascus that they created a situation through violence, excessive violence, that they became this target of opportunity for regime change,” Churkin said.

It doesn’t matter who did it. That’s not the point. The only point worth exploring is, it happened. And it happened near the heart of the Assad Mafia. Its purpose is to promote a climate of instability, helplessness and fear. Its message is, Besho has less than a year left…

Something like this happened less than a year before the Shah’s regime collapsed:

“…on August 19, 1978, the Cinema Rex in Abadan, Iran, was set ablaze, killing over 400 individuals. The ruling government of Iran reported that Islamic militants set the fire, while the anti-Shah protesters blamed the intelligence service of the nation, SAVAK, for setting the fire. Later it was disclosed that Islamic militants set the Cinema Rex fire. It was a key event that triggered the Iranian revolution in 1978…”

So strap yourselves in, kids. Expect more of the same in the bumpy ride to come. Unless someone kills Besho. ..

Friday, December 23, 2011Al Qaeda & friends strike on behalf of its ‘sponsors’ in both Damascus & Baghdad!

“…State TV said suspected al-Qaeda militants had targeted two security service bases in the Kafr Sousa area. But the opposition said the attacks – which came a day after Arab League observers arrived – were staged by the government to justify its crackdown. …”
and in Baghdad,

“… At least 65 people were killed and at least 196 were wounded in 20 explosions just days after the final U.S. troops withdrew, police said. The attacks targeted civilians across all walks of life. One took place at a market. Another, at a school as children were arriving. A third was at a coffee shop.The attacks were a painful reminder of Iraq’s most violent years.
The seemingly coordinated explosions Thursday struck during the height of morning rush hour, hitting a number of Baghdad’s primarily mixed Sunni-Shiite neighborhoods. Nine car bombs, six roadside bombs and a mortar round all went off in a two-hour period, targeting residential, commercial and government districts in the Iraqi capital, two police officials told CNN….”

Actually there has already been several attempts which have been thwarted by security. No car bombs however (all motorbike-mounted explosives).

UNSC Condemns Syria Blasts – Dec. 24, 2011

http://news.outlookindia.com/items.aspx?artid=745375

The UN Security Council has strongly condemned the suicide car blasts in Syria that killed 44 people but did not offer condolences to the government of the country in a departure from usual practice, amid deep divisions in the body over a resolution on the crisis there.

In a statement, the 15-member Council, including India, last night expressed “deep sympathy and sincere condolences to the victims of these heinous acts and to their families, and to the people of Syria.”

The statement came hours after twin suicide car bombings outside two buildings of Syria’s powerful intelligence agencies left at least 44 people dead and over 150 injured. Syria is already facing a crisis in the wake of the 9-month uprising against President Bashar Assad’s rule.

In a departure from usual practice, the UNSC statement did not offer condolences to the Syrian government.

“The members of the Security Council reaffirmed that terrorism in all its forms and manifestations constitutes one of the most serious threats to international peace and security, and that any acts of terrorism are criminal and unjustifiable, regardless of their motivation, wherever, whenever and by whomsoever committed,” it said.

In a separate statement, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon voiced grave concern over the escalating violence in Syria, including the suicide attacks in the capital, renewing his call for an immediate end to the bloodshed.

He urged the need for a “credible, inclusive and legitimate Syrian-led process of comprehensive political change that will address the democratic aspirations of the Syrian people,” said the statement issued by his spokesperson.

Ban said the Syrian government “should fully and speedily implement the peace plan put forward by the League of Arab States.”

Since the beginning of the Syrian uprising over nine months ago, the UN Security Council has remained deeply divided over the actions that should be taken against Syrian President Assad’s regime, whose brutal crackdown on civilians has resulted in the death of over 5,000 people.

European and US diplomats are demanding a resolution that imposes an arms embargo and other sanctions on Syrian regime.

On the other hand, Russia and China, which have close ties with Assad’s regime, have been opposing any kind of sanctions. They say the government forces alone are not responsible for the violence and killings but that the opposition too should be held accountable.

“If the requirement is that we drop all reference to violence coming from extreme opposition, that’s not going to happen,” Russia’s envoy Vitaly Churkin said here. “If they expect us to have arms embargo, that’s not going to happen.”

“We know what arms embargo means these days. It means that – we saw it in Libya – that you cannot supply weapons to the government but everybody else can supply weapons to various opposition groups.”

Russia submitted a revised version of its draft resolution that called on all parties to show maximum restraint. It did not make any mention of the government crackdown on civilians.

German Ambassador Peter Wittig called the latest Russian draft insufficient. “We need to put the weight of the Council behind the Arab League. That includes the demands to release political prisoners…(and) a clear signal for accountability for those who have perpetrated human rights violations.”

Wittig said yesterday’s bombings are “a sign of escalation, that the situation is rapidly deteriorating.”

“It underlines the need … For the Council to act: We cannot let the things just happen, we need to act here and those events underline the need to act urgently,” he said.

So far, the only Council action in case of Syria has been a Presidential statement that was passed in August under India’s Presidency.

ALGIERS, Dec. 23 (Xinhua) — The Algerian foreign ministry announced that the country had decided to send a team to join the Arab League’s (AL) observer mission to Syria, local media reported on Friday.

“In accordance to the decision of the AL foreign ministers council on Nov. 2 and in conformity with the observer mission protocol signed by Syria and the AL on Dec. 19 in Cairo, Algeria has decided to send a team of observers next week to join this mission,” said foreign ministry spokesman Amar Belani.

Belani added that “this mission is to make a general understanding of the situation on the ground ahead of the implementation of the AL peace roadmap to solve the crisis in Syria.”

Monitors to meet Syria top diplomat after bombings – 24 December 2011

http://www.france24.com/en/20111224-monitors-meet-syria-top-diplomat-after-bombings

AFP – Arab League monitors are to meet Syria’s top diplomat on Saturday, a day after suicide bombers killed 44 people in attacks Damascus blamed on Al-Qaeda but the opposition said were the regime’s work.

The attacks, the first against the powerful security services in the heart of the capital since an uprising against President Bashar al-Assad began in March, came a day after the arrival of an advance group of monitors.

They are in the country to pave the way for the arrival of a team of Arab League observers tasked with overseeing an end to the bloodshed, and will hold talks with Foreign Minister Walid Muallem.

“Forty-four people, civilians and security forces, were killed and 166 others injured in the two terrorist operations,” said the interior ministry.

A statement on state television said “the hands of Al-Qaeda were behind” the attacks.

Witnesses said a bomber tried to ram a vehicle packed with explosives into the compound of the General Security Directorate, Syria’s most important plain-clothes security service, in Damascus.

A second blew up a vehicle outside a nearby military intelligence building.

Television showed a huge crater at one of the bomb sites and pools of blood on surrounding pavements.

Bystanders were seen carrying away charred and mangled bodies wrapped in makeshift shrouds.

“On the first day after the arrival of the Arab observers, this is the gift we get from the terrorists and Al-Qaeda, but we are going to do all we can to facilitate the Arab League mission,” Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Meqdad told reporters at one of the bomb sites.

Asked to comment on suggestions the bombings had been engineered by the regime itself, Meqdad shot back: “Anyone who makes such allegations is a criminal.”

But the opposition Syrian National Council said in a statement that: “The Syrian regime, alone, bears all the direct responsibility for the two terrorist explosions.”

The regime wanted to create the impression “that it faces danger coming from abroad and not a popular revolution demanding freedom and dignity,” it added.

The UN Security Council condemned the attacks but remained deadlocked on a full resolution on the crisis with the Russian and US ambassadors trading personal barbs.

While not rejecting Syria’s account of the events, France accused the regime of trying “to mask the reality of the repression, notably by transferring political prisoners to secret jails”.

State Department spokesman Mark Toner condemned the bombings, saying it was crucial the attacks “not impede the critical work of the Arab League monitoring mission”.

Traditional Assad partner Russia condemned the “barbaric terrorist act”.

And his principal ally Iran warned “instability and threats to Syria’s national security, which is what its enemies are after, will not only pose a threat to Syrians but also other nations in the region”.

Ban Ki-moon’s spokesman said the UN leader was “gravely concerned” about the escalation and urged the government to “fully and speedily” implement the Arab League plan, while Britain condemned “the loss of life and injury.”

Syria’s deputy foreign minister was accompanied to one of the bombing sites by Arab League Assistant Secretary General Samir Seif al-Yazal, head of the advance team which arrived Thursday.

“What has happened is regrettable but the important thing is that everyone stay calm,” Yazal told reporters.

“We are going to press on with our work. We have started today, and tomorrow (Saturday) we will meet Walid Muallem.”

Yazal’s nine-member team is making logistical arrangements for the arrival of the first observers, who will eventually number between 150 and 200.

In Cairo, the Arab League’s Ahmed Ben Helli said the mission will head to Syria on Monday, grouping more than 50 experts in politics, human rights, military issues and crisis management, the official MENA news agency reported.

The mission is part of an Arab plan endorsed by Syria on November 2 that also calls for the withdrawal of the military from towns and residential districts, a halt to violence against civilians and the release of detainees.

Muallem has said he expects the observers to vindicate his government’s contention the unrest is the work of “armed terrorists,” not overwhelmingly peaceful protesters as maintained by Western powers and human rights watchdogs.

Syria says more than 2,000 security force personnel have been killed in attacks by armed rebels since March.

At UN, Churkin Previews Syria Statement, Chides Rice, Met with Ban

http://www.innercitypress.com/churk1rice122311.html

UNITED NATIONS, December 23 — When Russia’s Permanent Representative to the UN Vitaly Churkin called a press conference on the Friday before Christmas, some assumed he wanted to have the final year end say in his recent skirmishes with US Ambassador Susan Rice and to a lesser extent UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.

Churkin has criticized Ban being “misled by NATO” about the lack of civilian casualties from NATO members’ bombing in Libya; Rice calls Churkin’s call for a UN probe on this “bombast and bogus claims.”

On Friday, Churkin scoffed of Rice, “you can’t beat a Stanford education” and suggested she make her vocabulary “more Victorian.”

Inner City Press twice asked Ban’s spokesman Martin Nesirky to respond to Russia’s critique; both times Nesirky refused to comment. So Inner City Press asked Churkin if he expected or had received a response, or if his comments about Ban had just been a shot across the bow.

“I spoke with Secretary General,” Churkin replied with a smile, “it was a very good conversation.” Journalists in attendence giggled. Churkin hadn’t called anyone “bogus,” but a message had been sent. Victorian, indeed.

On Syria, Churkin read out loud a Russian drafted press statement welcoming the Arab League monitoring mission, which he said “the usual five” suspects had blocked. (One assumes the European Four plus the United States.)

He said he’d circulated another draft press statement, about the bombings in Damascus, with the “silence procedure” running through 3:30 pm. He said the language was standard.

Inner City Press asked if Russia’s draft included the usually standard proviso that efforts to combat terrorism should comply with human rights law. Churkin seemed to say yes, while adding that two words were missing. (The guess was he omitted sympathy “for the government,” as a sop to “even the most anti-Damascus,” as he put it.)

Inner City Press ended the press conference by asking Churkin to explain the lack of action on the proposal for a Security Council resolution appointing a UN Special Representative on investigating alleged organ trading by Kosovar officials. Churkin replied that Serbia decided to wait. For the five new members who join the Council in January, including Pakistan and Azerbaijan? “Serbia will make their assessment,” Churkin said.

On Damascus Bombings, UN SC Sympathizes With Syria People But Not Gov’t

http://www.innercitypress.com/syria1nogov122311.html

UNITED NATIONS, December 23 — When Russia circulated a draft press statement on Friday about the bombings in Damascus, Ambassador Vitaly Churkin told the press that it omitted two words from the “standard” Security Council condemnation of terrorist attacks, that should make it palatable to even the most anti-Assad members.

Sure enough, when the approved Council press statement was emailed out past 5 pm on Friday, it expressed “deep sympathy and sincere condolences to the victims of these heinous acts and to their families, and to the people of Syria” — but NOT the Government of Syria.

This differs from other recent statements, which for example expressed condolences to “the people and Government of India” (Delhi bombing, September 2011), to “the people and Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria” (Abuja bombing, August 2011) and to “to the people and Government of Morocco” (Marrakesh bombing, April 2011).

It’s worth noting that each of those three are ongoing, outgoing or incoming Security Council members; Syria is not.

Also in the Syria press statement, unlike recent press statements on India and Russia, is the sentence reminding “States that they must ensure that measures taken to combat terrorism comply with all their obligations under international law, in particular international human rights, refugee and humanitarian law.”

(Click here for Inner City Press’ modified story on omission of human rights in the Council’s August 2011 India statement.)

Now, does the phrase’s inclusion in the Council’s Decmeber 23 Syria statement mean that human rights proviso is now (again?) the standard?

Here is the Council’s Syria press statement:

Security Council Press Statement on terrorist attacks in Damascus

23 December 2011

The members of the Security Council condemned in the strongest terms the terrorist attacks that occurred in Damascus, Syria on 23 December, causing scores of deaths and injuries. They expressed their deep sympathy and sincere condolences to the victims of these heinous acts and to their families, and to the people of Syria.

The members of the Security Council reaffirmed that terrorism in all its forms and manifestations constitutes one of the most serious threats to international peace and security, and that any acts of terrorism are criminal and unjustifiable, regardless of their motivation, wherever, whenever and by whomsoever committed.

The members of the Security Council reiterated their determination to combat all forms of terrorism, in accordance with its responsibilities under the Charter of the United Nations.

The members of the Security Council reminded States that they must ensure that measures taken to combat terrorism comply with all their obligations under international law, in particular international human rights, refugee and humanitarian law.

The opposition has brought some simple people to the streets last March-June (and some Egyptians to tweet for them) by claiming that Bashar al Asad was just like Hosni Mubarak, a Zionist agent. This was probably their mistake number 1. Hiring the wrong Lebanese PR was mistake number 2.

http://www.naharnet.com/stories/24354-syrian-muslim-brotherhood-claims-damascus-bombings

Syria’s Muslim Brotherhood claimed responsibility on Saturday for two suicide bombings in Damascus that killed 44 people a day earlier.

“One of our victorious Sunni brigades was able to target the state security building in Kfar Suseh in the heart of the Omayyad capital Damascus in a successful operation carried out by four of our kamikazes drawn from the best of our glorious men, leaving many dead and wounded from the ranks of the Assad gangs,” it said on its official website.

The claim contradicted accusations by the regime of President Bashar Assad that the bombings, which also wounded 166 people, were the work of al-Qaida.

The opposition Syrian National Council said that the regime had carried them out.

The claim came as thousands of mourners carrying Syrian flags and pictures of the dead took part in a mass funeral for the 44 people killed in the bombings.

Mourners carried coffins draped in the red, white and black Syrian flags into the eighth-century Omayyad Mosque, where they were placed on the ground for prayers.

“Martyr after martyr, we want nobody but (Bashar) Assad,” they shouted in support of the president.

The site you quoted in fact now reads differently, seems to have been updated and this is by following the link you kindly provided.

http://www.naharnet.com/stories/24354-syrian-muslim-brotherhood-claims-damascus-bombings

Syria’s Muslim Brotherhood denied on Saturday its involvement in the Damascus bombings, saying the regime had set up a website similar to its webpage to implicate it in the blasts that left 44 people dead a day earlier.

In remarks to al-Arabiya TV station, Brotherhood official Mohammed Farouq Tayfour said the Syrian authorities established the site to accuse the group of carrying out the twin suicide bombings.

His comments came after a message on the alleged website said: “One of our victorious Sunni brigades was able to target the state security building in Kfar Suseh in the heart of the Omayyad capital Damascus in a successful operation carried out by four of our kamikazes drawn from the best of our glorious men, leaving many dead and wounded from the ranks of the Assad gangs.”

An apparently cosmopolitan Syrian with a strong faith from a family that has good link to its society, and has worked closely with others on Christian-Muslim relationships (off course within the directive and vision of the regime and its own mullahs Hassoun et. al.).

Yet, Mr. Emil and people like him, of whom there are plenty on SC are a source of compounded sorrow. Their decision to stand against the revolution is utterly foolish and short sighted.

Dear Dr. Landis,
You said: ”I was asked by journalists today what I thought about the notion that the Syrian government planned the car bombs to provide a pretext for their increasingly violent crackdown on the opposition. It reminds me of the notion that Washington was behind the World Trade Center bombing to provide a pretext for invading Iraq. I don’t give either much credibility”.
I am a little shocked at this statement. Comparing the 9/11 conspiracy theory to the bombings in Syria is not something that an “expert” in Syria would do. The 9/11 conspiracy is very far fetched. For the US government to plan an attack on the scale of 9/11 and keep it as a secret is very near to impossible. The way the US government works makes it so. However, the way the Syrian regime works make it very plausible for it to do such things and never be exposed. The Syrian regime works and thinks like a Mafia. A group of criminals that are capable of doing anything. The regime today is under immense pressure, do you really put something like this beyond them? I am not saying it is a certainty that the regime did it, but not to give any credibility to such a claim is naïve at best. (no disrespect intended).

The Russian Grinch and the Stanford dictionary of expletives
Posted By Colum Lynch   Friday, December 23, 2011 – 3:54 PM     Share

U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice and Russian Ambassador Vitaly Churkin have exchanged a series of highly personalized attacks against one another in the past 24 hours, signaling a sharp deterioration of U.S.-Russian relations at the United Nations over the response to the Arab Spring.

But the exchange reached a new level today when Rice’s spokesman, Mark Kornblau, while watching Churkin insult his boss, Tweeted an edited picture of Churkin inside the face of the “Grinch Who Stole Christmas.” The U.S. delegation had previously shared the photo with the Security Council, including Churkin, last year when the Russian envoy resisted Rice’s efforts to convene a Security Council meeting with the world’s youth. He apparently laughed then. Not clear if he thought it was funny this time around.

The latest diplomatic row has sharpened since the Russian envoy has begun pressing for a U.N.-backed investigation into allegations that NATO killed civilians during its air campaign against forces loyal to Muammar al-Qaddafi.

It comes as Russia has frustrated U.S. and European efforts to use the Security Council to ratchet up political pressure, through the threat of sanctions, on Syria to compel President Bashar al-Assad to halt a violent crackdown on protesters.

Rice suggested that the real intent of the Russian initiative was to divert attention from Syria’s conduct. “Oh, the bombast and bogus claims,” Rice said on Wednesday, after listening to Churkin speak outside the council. “Welcome to December. Is everybody sufficiently distracted from Syria now and the killing that is happening before our very eyes?”

Regarding Libya, Rice added: “Now, obviously, the United States and NATO partners regret any loss of civilian lives, but we also know that these are being already investigated, including by the Human Rights Council Commission of Inquiry…we welcome that. We note that neither the Libyan government nor the majority of members of the Security Council expressed any interest in any additional investigations. And, frankly, I think it’s not an exaggeration to say that this is something of a cheap stunt to divert attention from other issues and to obscure the success of NATO and its partners — and indeed the Security Council — in protecting the people of Libya…. So…let us see this for what it is: it is duplicitous, it’s redundant, it’s superfluous and it’s a stunt.”

Churkin organized its own press briefing today to respond to Rice’s comments, maintaining that the United States and its European partners are seeking to use the council to bring about regime change in Syria, and that their refusal to support a negotiated settlement of the Syrian conflict has exacerbated tensions, driving the country into an increasingly violent civil war.

But the briefing quickly got personal, as Churkin recalled what he described as a “rather unusual outburst” by Rice.

“This is not an issue that can be drowned out by expletives. You might recall the words one could hear: bombast and bogus claims, cheap stunt, duplicitous, redundant, superfluous, stunt,” he said. “Oh, you know, you cannot beat a Stanford education, can you,” said Churkin mocking Rice’s alma mater.

“We here that the Obama administration wants to establish a dialogue with the international community in the United Nations, and in the Security Council,” he added. “If that is to be the case, if this is the intention, really this Stanford dictionary of expletives must be replaced by something more Victorian, because certainly this is not the language in which we intend to discuss matters with our partners in the Security Council.”

What did Rice have to say about that?

“Happy Holidays to my good friend Amb Churkin, who’s clearly had a long month as Sec Council president,” Rice wrote in a Tweet after the briefing. “Hope he gets some well deserved rest.”

Actually, I share a dozen friends with this Emile guy, some of them are asking the regime to arrest him and execute him on the spot since he claimed responsibility for the terrorist attacks.

Now since the menhebakjeyeh insist that the regime has nothing to do with these attacks, this means this guy alone plotted these attacks and been planning them for at least 3 weeks now, so I’ll join the menhebaks just this once and call to publicly execute this terrorist ASAP

Is there a shortage of Turkeys in Syria for Christmas dinner?

Perhaps the UN Security Council should meet and agree to a temporary lifting of sanctions to allow Turkeys to enter Syria?

Surely nobody can mis-interpret and exploit such a resolution?

Counter arguments
1. It makes the security forces look weak and ready to be defeated
No it makes them look like victims of a terrible terrorist conspiracy and puts them as heroes of the stability and wellfare of the people of Syria.
2. It attacks the regime theory that Damascus is safe and Damascus is neutral or even supportive of the regime.
No since these are not elements that are from Damascus, the regime claimed they infiltrated from Lebanon and are not from Damascus and it said it included some Arab nationals coming through the village or Irsal from Lebanon
3. It gives an indication of strength to the regime by those who claim that they can topple it by force.
(I think it was meant to be weakness of the regime for this sentence does not make sense). If it was meant as showing strength of the opposition in its ability to use force then the sentence makes more sense. However, the SNC and the FSA and the people are still asking for civil disobedience and demonstrations and have not proposed anything but for the defense of the protesters. This act would serve the narrative of the regime: { “me or chaos” }
4. It tells the AL that you are not needed, it is a warT
To the contrary, it tells them we are victims and please lift the sanctions and monitor the opposition please as it tries to destroy the country and by the way we can guarantee your safety in some restive areas therefore you should not go there such as “Baba Amr”
5.it attempts to show some angry Syrians who lost loved ones on the hand of the regime that we are hear to avenge you.
That may be true, on the other hand the prisoners in those buildings could have been killed as well which would have backfired on the attackers from the families of those incarcerated in the basements of the wonder boy.

I would like for the Syria regime adulation crowd to tell me
1. Why not allow for observers from the BRIC group of nations
2. If the security forces are in such a weak state of affairs then why not ask for UN forces to create a buffer as we have in Kosovo
3. If the armed forces are so strong and capable how come there has been a awful quiet border on the Golan heights for more than 39 years now.
4. If the people want the wonder boy and his cronies as their eternal rulers then why not have a referendum on him now with UN run and AL obervers and monitors.
Now some important observations
The spat between France and Turkey will not affect their common approach towards Syria. Actually it is meant to pressure Turkey towards reconciliation with the Zionists.
The situation in Iraq is going to lead to the disintegration of the country. Maliki miscalculated thinking that the Sunni world preoccupied by Syria and Egypt will not pay attention to what he proposes and intends to do. To the contrary, the Sunni world is angry and ready to push back big time in Iraq and Syria and Lebanon.
HA is now rebuilding bridges with the opponents in Lebanon and starting talks as it prepares for an eventual collapse of the regime in Syria and certainly on its inability to help the situation.

You are right, the crises in Syria was and is never about reform, it has been all along about the push back by the Sunni against the Shia, after they lost Iraq,

I wonder why they do not have the backbone to push about the Israeli annexation of Jerusalem, I forgot, Shia and Muslim Iran are the enemies, or so they were told,

And we wonder why we do not seem, as Arabs, to get our act together. we deserve what we get,

Merry Xmas to all of the Christians of Syria and the world hoping next Xmas we have better times.

This year is marked with blood and the year ahead is going to be marked in blood too. This time next year we may not have the Syria of today and instead we will end up with fragments of a nation.

In this season of gifts I hope for a miracle to stop all of this blood shed and make sane people lead the way.

Dear #32. Ghufran,
No one is claiming that every death in Syria is committed by the regime, but no one has any doubts that every death in this revolution is caused by the regime.
When you say: “It helps the opposition, not the regime, to distance itself from jihadists and terrorists” My question to you is: what opposition? This regime made sure that there is no real opposition left inside Syria. It is not fair to equate the street demonstrators with the regime. The regime has the money, the power, the media, the army, the advanced communication and the complete organization of a state. The street demonstrators at this point have nothing but the mercy of God.
Is there foreign intervention in Syria? I say, yes. Are there armed elements in Syria? I say, yes. Are there people trying to stoke the fire? I say, yes. Are there foreign powers trying to destabilize Syria? I say, yes.
My question to you is: if Syria had a good government who worked for the best interest of its people, would any of this have worked in Syria? The answer is a resounding NO.

4. If the people want the wonder boy and his cronies as their eternal rulers then why not have a referendum on him now with UN run and AL obervers and monitors.

Excellent idea and I’m sure you’ll agree that such a referendum would have to be carefully arranged with agreement among the parties if it to be credible. Now if the SNC, etc. would come down off their high horse and work on a credible plan instead of refusing to talk and negotiate then a transition could be set in motion.

AL condemns suicide attack in Syria – 2011-12-24

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2011-12/24/c_122478795.htm

CAIRO, Dec. 24 (Xinhua) — Secretary General of Arab League (AL) Nabil al-Arabi condemned Saturday the suicide attack in Damascus which left at least 44 people killed and 166 others injured.

In a press release from the pan-Arab body, Arabi called for an end to the killing and violence across Syria immediately.

He expressed condolences to the families of the victims and stressed that the attack would not stop the AL observers from performing their mission.

He voiced worries about escalating violence in several Syrian cities like Homs, calling on the Syrian government to withdraw all troops from cities with peaceful demonstrations.

Two suicide car bombers struck Friday the headquarters of the intelligence department building and the Regional Security Branch in central Damascus, killing at least 44 people and wounding 166 others.

Mourners cheer Assad at Damascus funerals – 24 Dec 2011

Funerals for 44 people killed in twin suicide car bombs in Damascus turned into a show of support for President Bashar al-Assad and an attack on the US.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/syria/8977233/Mourners-cheer-Assad-at-Damascus-funerals.html

Funerals for 44 people killed in twin suicide car bombs in Damascus turned into a show of support for President Bashar al-Assad today, with thousands of mourners denouncing the United States and its Arab allies for interfering in Syria.

The United Nations voiced grave concern over the bombings, which marked an ominous step up in the violence that has rocked the Arab nation for nine months, claiming at least 5,000 lives.

Syria said al-Qaeda terrorists were behind the attacks. The media displayed gruesome pictures of dismembered bodies and heads. There has been no claim of responsibility.

Opposition members said they suspected the Assad government carried out the bombings itself, to prove to the world it is facing a ruthless insurgency by armed Islamic fundamentalists.

In Cairo, Sudanese General Mohammed Ahmed Mustafa al-Dabi said he would go to Damascus as head of an Arab League monitoring mission which intends to fan out over Syria to verify compliance with an Arab peace plan.

The first batch of about 50 monitors is expected to reach Syria on Monday. Assad’s foes say the mission will only be used to gain time while security forces try to smother the revolt.

“I am optimistic that the mission of the monitors will be successful and that events such as yesterday’s blasts in Damascus will not affect the mission,” Dabi told reporters.

The official Syrian news agency SANA reported that seven army and police “martyrs” killed in clashes with insurgents had been buried. The government said 2,000 members of the security forces have been killed in the unrest since March.

Thousands of Syrians chanted “Death to America” during the funeral processions in Damascus, cheering Assad, calling for revenge and denouncing Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim al-Thani who has become one of Assad’s main Arab critics.

The crowd, carrying posters of Assad and Syrian flags, chanted “We want your head, Hamad” and “We sacrifice our souls and blood for you Bashar” and “God, Syria and Bashar only.”

The coffins, draped in Syrian flags, were lined up inside the gilded 8th-century Umayyad Mosque, one of Islam’s holiest sites, in scenes shown on state TV. Many were marked “unknown”.

Leading Sunni Muslim cleric Said al-Bouti said he hoped the attacks would lift “the veils on the eyes of the Arab League … so that they see who is the murderer and who is the victim”.

Al-Qaeda are Sunni Muslim militants. Assad and Syria’s power elite belong to the Alawite branch of Shi’ite Islam while most Syrians, including protesters and insurgents, are Sunnis.

Hamas, a Sunni Islamist Palestinian militant group that rules the Gaza Strip, condemned the bombings and called for a “quick” political solution to end the bloodshed in Syria.

Hamas has its headquarters in Damascus, but diplomats say dozens of its operatives have quietly returned to Gaza from Damascus as the group scaled back its presence in Syria and gauged the uncertain future of Assad. Hamas denies such reports.

The UN Security Council condemned the attacks.

“Terrorism in all its forms and manifestations constitutes one of the most serious threats to international peace and security, and … any acts of terrorism are criminal and unjustifiable,” it said in a statement.

Western powers say the security forces have perpetrated most of the violence in Syria. But Russia, an old ally of Damascus, wants any UN resolution on the crisis to be even-handed.

“If the requirement is that we drop all reference to violence coming from extreme opposition, that’s not going to happen,” UN ambassador Vitaly Churkin said in New York after Russia submitted a revised draft resolution to the council.

“If they expect us to have an arms embargo, that’s not going to happen,” he said. The experience of Libya showed it would be one-sided and used against the government, Churkin said.

Assad has used tanks and troops to try to crush mainly peaceful street protests inspired by other Arab uprisings this year. Armed insurgents and army deserters are now fighting back.

Syria has generally barred foreign media from the country, making it hard to verify accounts of events from either side.

But Friday’s blasts signalled a dramatic escalation.

“It’s a new phase. We’re getting militarised here,” said Joshua Landis, a Syria expert at the University of Oklahoma. He said the bombs were a “small premonition” of what may come in a country that some analysts see slipping towards civil war.

“This is when the Syrian opposition is beginning to realise they are on their own,” he added, referring to Western reluctance to intervene militarily in Syria.

A Syrian Interior Ministry spokesman said 166 people were wounded by the Damascus explosions, which blew human limbs into the streets. It broadcast footage of mangled bodies being carried in blankets and on stretchers into ambulances, a row of corpses wrapped in sheets lying in the street.

The Arab League peace plan stipulates a withdrawal of troops from protest-hit cities and towns, release of prisoners and dialogue with the opposition. Opponents of Assad have ruled out any negotiations until the violence against protesters stops.

Damascus says more than 1,000 prisoners have been freed since the Arab plan was agreed and the army has left cities.

The idea that some Al Qaeda group was behind these bombings is absolutely mind boggling. Anyone who has been in Damascus and specifically Kfar Sousa knows that it is virtually impossible for any civilian to penetrate this area, so we are suppose to believe that 2 cars packed with explosives managed to get in. Dr. Landis go to Damascus and take a taxi to Kfar Sousa, the driver will go nowhere near that area and simply drop you off outside, there are checkpoints nearby that are 50 metres apart. Please stop with this pro Baathist nonsense.

Dear SF94123,

Let us pray together:

For all those who have fallen victim to hatred and inhumanity, for those loved ones who are left behind to mourn, for the souls of those whose hearts are cold, Lord, hear our prayer.

For the children who are being born into this world of conflict and violence, for women and mothers who suffer needlessly, Lord, hear our prayer.

For all those who have been forced into unemployment, who long to return to work, for all those who struggle to support their families, Lord, hear our prayer.

For the soldiers who are misguided in thinking that their bullets will bring about peace, for those who feel called to conscientiously object to military orders, Lord, hear our prayer.

For the children who cry in their beds at night and wonder ‘what have I done?’, for the mothers and fathers who must try to explain the unexplainable, Lord, hear our prayer.

For all the children who have died before their time, for the soldiers who allow their uniform to strip them of their humanity, for the healers who are denied the opportunity to use their gifts, Lord, hear our prayer.

For the redemption of souls of both victim and perpetrator, for those who commit themselves to the forgiveness of sins, Lord, hear our prayer.

O God,
Open our eyes that we may see the needs of others;
Open our ears that we may hear their cries;
Open our hearts that we may feel their anguish and their joy.
Let us not be afraid to defend the oppressed, the poor, the powerless, because of the anger and might of the powerful.
Show us where love and hope and faith are needed, and use us to bring them to those places.
Open our ears and eyes, our hearts and lives, that we may in these coming days be able to do some work of justice and peace for you. Amen.

I haven’t seen anyone support or celebrate these attacks. Even on a forum which is the ‘Osama Bin Laden supporting type’ I have seen the regime suspected of this ‘cheap stunt’.

In fact the regime has been reluctant from the beginning to recognise the over-whelming peaceful and legitimate nature of protests. It has desperately and persistantly tried to discredit the uprising by trying to falsely paint it as terrorist, MB, Salafist, foreign backed. The peaceful opposition has always emphasized its peaceful nature and distanced itself from anything contrary.

And now this attack happens which fits into the regime narrative. Can you blame the people for suspecting the regime? After it’s lies and false portrayal of the uprising? Why should they believe the regime now?

Now the regime has something to play with. They can use this to shield itself in regards to the observer mission and also at the UN security council a little further down the line.

Syrian forces kill “terrorists” in hot spot town – 2011-12-25

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2011-12/25/c_122478940.htm

DAMASCUS, Dec. 24 (Xinhua) — The Syrian government forces killed two “terrorists” in the flashpoint town of Homs on Saturday, a day after the capital of Damascus was rocked by two powerful suicide bombings that killed at least 44 people.

The “terrorists” were killed after they clashed with the authorities’ forces in the Teldo area in suburban Homs, a hotspot city in the ongoing Syrian crisis, which has seen continuous violence between the government forces and defected soldiers, the official SANA news agency reported.

Another six terrorists were wounded, while “a cache of diverse firearms” were seized, SANA said.

On the same day, an armed terrorist group killed an ambulance driver near a hospital in Homs after firing at the vehicle.

People in major Syrian cities have become increasingly worried about terrorist attacks, especially after two suicide car bombers on Friday struck the headquarters of the intelligence department and the regional security branch in central Damascus. At least 44 people were killed and 166 others were injured in the twin blasts, which the Syrian government has blamed on al-Qaida members.

Friday’s attacks, the worst since protests erupted against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in mid-March, came only one day after an advance team of the Arab League (AL) observers arrived in Damascus to prepare for assessing whether the country abided by an Arab peace plan to end the alleged crackdown on protesters.

Sudanese General Mohammed Ahmed Mostafa al-Dabi, head of the AL observer mission to Syria, left for Damascus on Saturday evening after he had said at a press conference that Friday’s bombings would not hamper the mission’s work in any way.

December 24th, 2011, 5:21 pm

 

Uzair8 said:

Another consequence of the suspicious Damascus attacks.

After gradually killing thousands (5000) of people and imprisoning many more, the regime was running out of ‘capital’ to continue to act so freely without risking consequences and further pressure (AL observer mission failure, issue taken to UNSC, foreign intervention etc).

This attack has put the opposition and foreign powers temporarily on the defensive and shaken off some of the pressure (momentum of) piled on the regime. This attack may see the regime regain the initiative and give it renewed ‘capital’ (breathing space) to resume a new cycle of suppression. The previous cycle saw at least 5000 killed in previous months.

Mounting violence shadows Christians’ celebrations in Syria – 2011-12-25

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2011-12/25/c_122478944.htm

DAMASCUS, Dec. 24 (Xinhua) — On the Christmas Eve, Christians in Syria suffered from distress and some even canceled celebrations due to violence across the country and recent deadly explosions in the capital Damascus.

The Christian neighborhoods in Syria, which were usually decorated with colorful lights on the Christmas Eve in the past, on Saturday look as dim as other parts of the country that has been gripped by months of unrest. Markets which were usually crowded with people at this time look relatively empty this year.

Patriarch Ignatius IV Hazim of Antioch and All the East on Saturday called for limiting the Christmas and New Year occasions.

Patriarchal Assistant at the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate, Bishop Luca al-Khouri, told local media that Syrians are brothers and no one can divide them, adding that “we live together, Muslim and Christian clergymen, Christian and Muslim people, in this sage country… but they want to fragment this country, and God willing they won’t be able to do that.”

Al-Khouri said that on the Christmas Eve, “the enemies of Syria opted to gift Syria with victims rather than good wishes.”

Syria has long said that it is subject to a foreign conspiracy and some unnamed countries have channeled funds and weapons to extremists and armed thugs in Syria to undermine its stability and security.

In the most deadly events in the country since the unrest started in March, two suicide bombers attacked two security compounds in Damascus on Friday, killing at least 44 people and wounding 166 others. The Syrian government said the two blasts bore the hallmark of al-Qaida.

Syria’s Christians, who take up about 10 percent in the country ‘s Sunni-majority population, have showed support to the embattled President Bashar al-Assad.

#130 You’re probably right. I just wanted to put out the guy’s denial.

The bigger question today is: where is Bashar? Damascus has its worst terrorist attack in decades and the president doesn’t address the nation? I know menhebaks like this style of leadership, but there are people with brains in Syria who need to see the president and hear explanations and plans from him.

Maybe he can come out and wish us a Merry Christmas, and say Syria bkheir and khilsit. Is that too much to ask?

The death toll of the twin attacks on intelligence centers in the Syrian capital of Damascus on Friday has risen to 44, while 166 others were injured, most of them civilians, Syria’s interior ministry said Friday.

“The attacks reflect a new escalation of terrorist acts in Syria,” the ministry said in a statement, adding “the style of the attacks refers to al-Qaida.”

The ministry appealed to the Syrian people to report any suspicious act “to cut the hand of terrorism.”

Earlier on Friday, two suicide bombs rocked two security centers in central Damascus, the worst violence since protests against President Bashar al-Assad erupted in mid-March. The bombing came only a day after the Arab League (AL) observers arrived in the capital to monitor the situation on the ground.

The blasts struck the headquarters of the security department building and the Region Security Branch, leaving rubble and twisted debris covering the road that is lined with burned cars.

Syria’s state TV said security forces have arrested a suspect, adding that terrorists carried out the two blasts at sites with heavy traffic and near an orphanage.

Imams and preachers condemned the attacks and stressed in a statement carried by state-run SANA news agency that Islam has nothing to do with any terrorist attack that targets the security of the homeland, citizens, unity and stability of the country.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Friday said he is “gravely concerned with the escalating violence in Syria,” and stressed that “all violence is unacceptable and must stop immediately.”

In the statement, the secretary-general urged “a credible, inclusive and legitimate Syria-led process of comprehensive political change that will address the democratic aspirations of the Syrian people.”

Besides, Lebanese Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour also strongly condemned the acts, saying the heinous crime is the newest in a series of crimes against the Syrian people and the national army, which are aimed at undermining Syria and threatening the unity of the Syrian people.

”We offer our heartfelt condolences to the families of the martyrs and express our deep grief and condemnation of this heinous crime … We also wish the injured a speedy recovery and hope that security and stability would be restored to Syria,” he said.

News Analysis: Terrorist attacks in Damascus a “serious warning to government, opposition alike”: analysts

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2011-12/24/c_122476244.htm

DAMASCUS, Dec. 23 (Xinhua) — Syrian analysts and observers regarded the brazen bombing of two security centers in Damascus on Friday as “a serious warning to the authorities and the opposition alike,” calling for convening an immediate national conference to find an outlet to the intractable impasse.

Two suicide car bombers struck Friday the headquarters of the intelligence department building and the Region Security Branch in central Damascus, killing at least 40 people and wounding 150 others, an official told Xinhua.

Syrian state TV immediately apportioned blame on al-Qaida and said initial investigations point out that al-Qaida group is behind the two blasts.

“The bombings against the intelligence headquarters are a very serious warning as they are the start of terrorist attacks by al- Qaida,” Ali Mahfouz, a political researcher and a member of the “Third Way” movement, which advocates a middle-of-the-road opinion between the regime and the government, told Xinhua by phone.

Mahfouz urged to “face these kinds of terrorist acts by holding a national conference that would comprise all spectra of the Syrian people to find an outlet to put an end to the escalating violence.”

“We must hurry to salvage our country,” he said.

For his side, Fayyez Sayegh, a political analyst, said “the attacks deliver a message to the world that terrorism has no home and it moves everywhere.”

“What happened today is a clear-cut evidence that terrorist groups neither want reform nor democracy,” he told Xinhua, accusing al-Qaida militants of being behind the attacks.

He urged the Syrian opposition to condemn the attacks to prove its nationalism, adding “if they didn’t hasten to condemn the attacks and ignored what happened, they are a partner in the shedding of the Syrian blood.”

On the opposition side, Loai Hussain, a leading opponent, expressed condemnation over the attacks “regardless of who stands behind them.”

He said that he wasn’t surprised by the attacks because “I’ve warned the government that the security handling of the current crisis would lead to such results.”

The brazen bombing came as Arab League observers have arrived in Damascus to monitor the country’s unrest on ground.

Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Mekdad, who rushed to the scene along with an Arab League observers delegation, told reporters that “we have said since the start of unrest in the country that this is terrorism and a murder of army members.”

Sami Seif al-Yazal, a member of the Arab League observers who have arrived in Damascus on Thursday to monitor an end to the government’s crackdown on protesters, said “this is regretful… we are here to see facts on ground.”

Also, Maj. Gen Rustom Ghazali, former head of Syrian intelligence in Lebanon, has reportedly said “this is a criminal and sinful act and confirms that there are agent tools that carry out the hostile foreign project.” But, he added, “this will not affect the morale of the security forces, the citizens and the army… Our morale will always remain high and we will resist this project till the last drop of our blood and will undermine the sedition.”

Syria said Thursday that more than 2,000 army men were killed by armed groups since the unrest began in March.

Last week, the Lebanese army raised concerns at a security meeting that some “Syrian refugees” fleeing to Lebanon are actually al-Qaida members, the Lebanese English-language The Daily Star reported.

Lebanese Army Commander Jean Kahwagi confirmed to sources close to the prime minister that some weapon smugglers who claim to be Syrian opposition are in fact al-Qaida members, The Daily Star said.

Meanwhile, hundreds of people flocked Syrian main squares nationwide to express condemnation of the two terrorist attacks, according to SANA.

Maybe 99% of conspiracy theories sound ridiculous, but what equally ridiculous is to think that they do not happen at all! It is easy for us to accept that sth that happened tens of years ago is a conspiracy, but when it is about sth current, some people are 100% ready to swallow what governments, like the one in Syria, claim unconditionally. Haven’t you heard of the Gleiwitz incident before? It was an attack staged by Nazi Germany on a German radio station to justify the invasion of Poland. Haven’t you heard too of the Lavon affair? It was an operation by Israeli intelligence to attack Western targets in Egypt to force Britain and France to keep their forces in the Suez Canal. Lavon, Israeli defence minister at the time, resigned following the failure of the operation (so it’s a real conspiracy, not wild flights of imagination). Go to Wikipedia’s entry on “False Flag” and you will find several documented cases of false attacks carried out (or planned) by governments to achieve certain goals. After you have a look there come back to what the Syrian government said about this attack and tell me if you really believe that two cars in the heart of Damascus bombed two of its most protected areas, the first operation of its kind, right after the arrival of Arab League observers, and the Syrian government in 30 minutes were able to determine that they were suicide bombings carried out by al-Qaeda!!

Amnesty International condemns Syria’s death penalty for those arming terrorists

LONDON (BNO NEWS) — Amnesty International on Thursday warned that the bloodshed in Syria could worsen after the government introduced a law imposing the death penalty on anyone found guilty of arming ‘terrorists.’

The official SANA news agency reported on Tuesday that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had signed a law providing the death penalty for anyone who provides weapons or helps to provide weapons intended to carry out terrorist attacks. The announcement came during one of the deadliest weeks since pro-reform protests began earlier this year.

“The law could have serious consequences as the Syrian authorities claim that anti-government protests are the work of ‘armed terrorists’,” said Philip Luther, Amnesty International’s interim Director for the Middle East and North Africa. “The Syrian authorities must immediately repeal this law, which represents yet another brutal tool in their arsenal of repression.”

An eyewitness speaking to Amnesty International described seeing the bodies of what he estimated to be around 100 residents following shelling in the western part of the village of Kafr Awaid on Tuesday. He said they had fled their homes out of fear of arrest in their homes.

The Syrian National Council (SNC), a Turkish-based opposition government in exile, condemned the regime of Bashar al-Assad on Wednesday for its “appalling massacres” which left nearly 250 people killed over a 48-hour period. The group urged the Arab League and the United Nations Security Council to take “the necessary measures” to protect civilians.

Since April, Amnesty International has called for the Security Council to refer the situation in Syria to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), and to impose a comprehensive arms embargo on Syria and an assets freeze on President Bashar al-Assad and others involved in ordering or perpetrating serious human rights abuses. Consultations are expected to resume on Thursday on a new draft resolution on Syria before the UN Security Council.

Turkey suspends all ties with France after approval of Armenian genocide bill

It is estimated that between 600,000 and 1.5 million people of the Armenian population were killed by the Ottoman Empire between 1915 and 1923, but Turkey has refused to use the word ‘genocide’ to describe the events. Numerous countries have officially recognized the Armenian Genocide, including France.

http://lincolntribune.com/?p=24989

ANKARA/PARIS (BNO NEWS) — The Turkish government on Thursday suspended all ties with France after the lower chamber of its parliament approved a draft bill which would criminalize the denial of the Armenian genocide during World War I, officials said.

Lawmakers in France’s National Assembly voted overwhelmingly in favor of the draft law, which proposes a prison sentence of up to one year and a fine of 45,000 euros ($58,000) for those who deny or ‘outrageously minimize’ the ‘genocide’ of Armenians by the Ottoman government during World War I. It also criminalizes other genocides recognized by France.

Turkey has reacted with outrage to the approval of the draft bill and immediately suspended all economic, political and military meetings with France. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdo?an also said Ankara would cancel permission for French military planes to land and warships to dock in Turkey.

Erdogan said the proposed law is ‘too heavy and difficult’ and opens old wounds. “There is no such thing as a genocide in our history,” the prime minister said, claiming the bill is based on ‘racism, discrimination and xenophobia.’

“I ask the following question: Is there freedom of thought in France, is there freedom of expression? I am giving the answer: no. This is a free discussion environment being eliminated,” Erdogan added. “Unfortunately, the French Revolution, known as a symbol of liberty, equality and fraternity, has been trampled on by the parliament of France today.”

Meanwhile, the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs accused France of using the genocide bill for ‘electoral purposes’ ahead of next year’s presidential elections in which President Nicolas Sarkozy faces a tough re-election battle.

“This law proposal constitutes a grave example of politicization of history on account of narrow political calculations and stifling of freedom of expression by a democratic institution,” a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said. “France has thus preferred to ignore the universal values which it had a share in developing.”

The spokesperson pointed out that the proposed law restricts the freedom of expression of all academics and researchers who are looking at historical events from different perspectives. The Ministry said the law will be unable to prevent the expression of views developed on scientific bases, and said Turkey cannot accept the ‘unilateral imposition of memory.’

The Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it has recalled its Ambassador to France for consultations in Ankara. “In the forthcoming period, which constitutes a test for France, we expect that necessary actions will be taken before the damage caused by this initiative on our bilateral relations reaches more severe dimensions, and we hope that ultimately common sense and reason will prevail,” the spokesperson added.

Others have also expressed concern about France’s plans to criminalize genocide denial. “I fully acknowledge the humanitarian intentions of those members of the National Assembly who authored and supported this proposal,” said Dunja Mijatovi?, the Representative on Freedom of the Media at the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE). “However, I believe that the final adoption of these legal amendments would raise serious concerns with regard to international standards of freedom of expression.”

Mijatovi? said the French bill could also have international effects. “It could set a precedent internationally for politically construed, ad-hoc criminalization of public debates,” she said. “Criminalization of debates on history’s true course, even of obviously false and offensive statements about a nation’s tragic moment, is not conducive to a better understanding among people, communities and authorities of OSCE participating States.”

Mijatovi? further said she fears the passing of this law by a nation with a great history of press freedom might prompt other countries in the OSCE region to follow France’s example and similarly criminalize historical statements in violation of their OSCE commitments which aim at encouraging free discussion on issues of public interest.

“A proliferation of national prohibitions on particular statements related to the culture and history of different nations and regions would render international free-speech standards inapplicable and subordinate them to a plethora of fragmented national strategies on regulation of speech and expression,” she added.

The French Senate, the upper house of parliament, will debate the bill next year before it goes before a vote.

It is estimated that between 600,000 and 1.5 million people of the Armenian population were killed by the Ottoman Empire between 1915 and 1923, but Turkey has refused to use the word ‘genocide’ to describe the events. Numerous countries have officially recognized the Armenian Genocide, including France.

My heart is with Syrians who are wounded and bereft from the blasts in Damascus. It is terrible that so little information on the dead and the plot has been published. In Norway, the media and authorities intensively investigated those terrible events, and made public the facts as they developed. It was a dreadful story fully opened to public scrutiny and discussion.

In Syria it seems the murder book is already closed on the events in Kafr Sousah, without full investigation.

Who are the people who died? Where are their names and their stories? In Norway, each dead person became known via the media, where they stood, how they were herded, when they were shot dead. There were witnesses and survivors. There was a careful forensic investigation, and a reconstruction with the actor … mourning and funerals were postponed until the forensic work was done.

In Syria bags of flesh have already been disposed before a list of names has been released by official media or morgue or investigator. Who is the investigator of this horrible event? Who is charged with that task, who is charged with briefing the world on the details? Where is the Crisis Desk?

I want to know several things above all.

— where is the map or maps of the operation: who has seen an animation of the blast areas that shows clearly from where and how the two huge cargos of explosives (300lbs each) were put in place? Where were the bodies found in the blast zone? How many rooms were damaged? How many died inside and who outside? Within the boundary walls and without? Which hospitals were wounded taken to? What happened to the purported drivers of the two vehicles — were they disintegrated in place, did they leave the precincts or attempt to? What are the details?

Where was the suspect captured, and when, by whom. Who is he, and where is he now?

Why do events surrounding the blasts seem to be enveloped by a Syrian cloak?

I really expect more eyewitness reports to go beyond the sketchy official chronology and placement of events — surely someone was standing across the street when the blast occurred. What did he or she experience? There were hundreds, if not thousands to interview in the neighbourhood, survivors from the building, ‘lucky survivors’ close to initial events. Where are they? Why haven’t these people’s witness been pieced together to tell the story in depth? Where is the Syrian media foremost, and where are official spokespersons who put up maps and answer all questions of the curious and concerned and horrified?

These are terrible days for Syria in the season of the Holiday Birth. I am not Christian, but I hear the plaintive best wishes and my heart sinks at each Merry Christmas hope that will be dashed. Christmas will only be sombrely celebrated this year in Damascus, at the Palace and in the streets, and in the homes of the fearful and horrified.

To the odious Syrian Commando, shame on you. Shame on your death cult, shame on your hysteria and your heartlessness. You epitomize the pitiless authoritarianism of expat anonymous Syrians in bed with Dictatorship. Your comment is much more revolting than the worst of Khaled Tlass’s sectarian hysteria, because you address real people to personally wish them the grave.

President Assad has brought this sombre, fearful, horrified Holiday Birth upon his country. May he pray or not, listen to holy advice or not, may he please have mercy, may he show pity on his subjects, may he still the guns of the regime and step away from the apex of dictatorial power.

Troops to the barracks, torture rooms disbanded, tanks to the depots. Detainees to justice and to freedom. Demonstrators free to express their needs and demands without facing guns, beatings, threats or detention.

My only hopes today are for the Arab League to insert itself as the seed of peace between the out-of-control repression of the regime, and the militant hostility of the opposition. May they be brave and effective …

Damascus has been hit with two enormous explosions and resultant heightened terror and foreboding. These explosions must not be repeated. Investigate this crime and expose its planners lest it happen again in the near future.

To the authors of the explosions: Why? What possible benefit can these gouts of blood give to Syria? Who have you harmed and who have you aided with the bags of flesh thrown under the cloak?

This is the aproximate distribution of syrian religions.
It means that I never judge other by their religion but for their acts. I apreciate very much the things I have learnt from muslims, and of course most of them were sunnis, but all good humans, be druze, alawis, ismailis or followers of evil let me learn too much too.

People in Hama, Homs, Idleb and AlJazeera provinces are the base of Damascus and Aleppo inmigration. In the future urbanization is going to keep gaining momentum due to economical circumstances that far from improving will probably worsen.

So these syrian, mostly rural, many ¨arab¨ and kurds, are the future of syrian main cities. You can hear at them today or shoot to kill and silence their voices for a period of time but sooner or later they will be an overwhelming majority.

For me they do not represent the MB, they are the real syrian people. Pure people who does not understand about politics, but have 2 or 3 basic concepts about life and justice that you can silence but not change. In the long term they are Syria.

Syria is a third or fourth world country, do you hear a lot about the investigations in similar attacks in Pakistan, No and Pakistan is much more advanced in technology, Syria does have a crime lab, they tend to beat people into giving up information, you expect a lot from the non intelligent services of Syria.

Observations I wanted to share with you, returning from a visit to Sooria, this predates the twin bombings by 24 hours, both sites I drove by at least twice a day while I was in damascus, commuting from the airport or from downtown to mezze:

in merely 8 days I found out how the Arabic Storm is still hitting my old world, in a way that puts all of my loved ones in direct danger. But freedom has a price they say, people are dying everyday, indeed. it is not if you die or not, it is how you die, and for what?
Death in the Middle East is quick, sudden, and forgettable. One’s life is not the blood racing in vessels, as heart will stop puming, but what is left behind? I know I don’t control my destiny, I know also I have choices, these choices will effect my destiny, and people will say: he or she has chosen to die for this cause,
unfortunately, as always our lives in the Middle East are traded as commodity, this practice is reaching a sharp peak
Syria, where death takes many forms, if you are a demonstrator, and you choose to go out, fighting for your dignity, you know you may not return home. If you are a “loyal” your choice also may get you assassinated if you live in Homs .
but what if you choose to be in the grey zone? this can be as deadly in times of war, and that is how Swiss-like citizens can die, a brief, forgettable departure…
the situation in Damascus proper is very secure, that is said, people are not taking any chances, some don’t leave their homes at night, some are carrying guns, otherwise you can roam the whole city and you will fail to see one soldier. if you travel on the highways to the suburbs, you will be stopped by patrols for ID and trunk inspections, nothing major.
I know a person who installed a video monitoring circuit after he saw an X on his door one day.

if you want to travel between cities, you are adviced to fly, Syrian Air now flies 2 trips a day, a steep increase from twice a week.

prices are high, from mazot to cooking gas, losing power 4 to 6 hours a day, dollar is 62 syp in black market.

in Lattakia, I heard about detonating dynamite, a familiar act from the eighties, and rumors about people disappearing. Few demonstrators lit tires after announcing signing of the AL protocol.

overall, counterintuitively, corruption, and breaking the law , by law enforcement , is rampant,

People where frustrated with the delay by the regime in handling lawlessness

Now after the bombing , we return to the 80s era,

All Syrians should sit down on the dialogue table, Talib… Excuse me, MB EXCUTE….excuse me excluded.

Dear Joshua,
((The context of the bombings are the growing frustration of the opposition).

The “opposition” has indeed been frustrated with the regime intransigence, SNC ineptness, and AL weak stand for over nine months now.

The regime’s claim of presence of terrorist groups from day one, and their failure to eradicate these phantom groups in spite of over nine month of full deployment of their offcial and paramilitary forces would logically mean that the borders have been so porous, that semitruck loads of explosives should have been, as you Joshua rightly noted, a daily scene all over Syria!

Yet what we got in Damascus were two bombs, conveniently detonated in a highly controlled area, so that no unauthorised people could even approach the scene to make cell phone videos, or take photos and perfectly timed to coincide with AL commission’s first field visit!

The timing and context of the bombings is the arrival of the AL commission, whose mandate, as publicly announced by Mu3allem himself was the vindication of the narrative of terrorist undercurrents in the revolution.

Upon arrival, the ALC team was given a carefully planned orientation on their role and what to expect.

Next day, they were taken to Demo number 1: Damascus suicide bombings!

((Suicide Bombing Changes Nature of the Syrian Revolution))

Dear joshua,

That is what the regime wanted to achieve from staging the bombings; changing the Syrian public’s, Arab, and international views of the Syrian revolution, from peaceful to violent.

The nature of the revolution has been peaceful from day one; their first chanted slogan was Silmiyeh, Silmiyeh (peaceful, peaceful).

The nature of Jr’s response has been from day one; violent crackdown, at what ever price.

The peaceful nature and means of the revolting civilians shall continue.

The use of force by defecting soldiers shall continue to be in the vein of protection of rising, peaceful civilians.

Abu Qusai to Al Arabia: My father Ghazi Z3aib, ex-secretary of Baath party branch of Homs, and his wife Rajaa Bakkar were shot dead and their house set on fire by Assad security forces.

Uploaded by masymona123 on Dec 24, 2011
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgX7WgHQE1A&feature=player_embedded#!

On Friday, Assad forces invaded Baba Amr and its groves.
My father’s house was searched several times that day by security forces.
At 5:00 PM a security forces contingent in 10 pickup trucks escorted by three Armored vehicles ramsacked and blasted parts of my father’s house and shot him and his wife dead.
I telephoned current Baath party branch secretary Mr Subhi Harb complaining. He replied that he was looking into the matter!

My late father held the offcial post of member of the central committee of the Baath party. I therefore consider his assasination to have been a political decision taken at the highest of levels.

My father fell in disfavour with the regime in April for refusing to appear on TV to support the regime.
He was there remvoed from office and replaced by current secretary, Subhi harb.

He was summoned to Baath party branch for questioning a month ago.
The questioning was attended by the following high officials:
– Subhi Harb, current Homs Baath branch secretary
– Mohammad Al Shaar. Minister of interior
– Hisham Bakhtiar, member of the national committee of the Baath party
– Mohammad deeb Zeitoon, Head of Political Security Branch

He was then asked to hand over his son(myself)for interrogation in relation to revolution activities.
My father refused then, saying he won’t hand over his living son only to be handed back to him a dead body, like what happended with his nephew!

I started to agree with you. The observers are physically present in Syria yet they have not visited Homs despite the SNC appeal to the AL for the observers to “observe” Homs. So why are they there? Their mission is supposed to be for one month and may be renewable. Shouldn’t they send daily report to the AL with their activities. I am afraid these people have no experience and they think they are going in an excursion. I am afraid they will like Damascus like all Arabs do and reflect their affection onto the regime. It is becoming a pathetic situation.

I salute the heroic Syrian people. I salute the heroes of Syria, the Sunnis of Syria. I salute you, brave men, defenders of your faith and your country.

From this day on, you despicable Alawites, either you renounce Al-Assad, or else Syria will become your graveyard. Enough of your silence, enough of killing of Sunnis. From this day on, we will not remain silent. An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.

I swear that if you do not renounce that gang and those killings, we will teach you a lesson that you will never forget. We will wipe you out from the land of Syria.

From this day on, we will not be silent. We will turn Syria into the graveyard of Alawites, if they do not stop the killing. Down with the despicable political Shia.

(Poster’s own comments) :

This is the opposition in Syria. They want all other people to die. A full massacre of Alawites and Shias. Where in the world have you seen where opposition groups come and name another sects and ethnics and declare war on them? Have you seen any opposition in Bahrain calling stuffs like these on Sunnis, even though Sunnis are supporting al-khalifa while in Syria it is not only Alawits but majority of Baathist minded Sunnis are supporting Assad as well. Have you seen in Iraq in the last 3 decades where Shias say something like this?

It is the 1980s all over again except that the usual crackdown by the regime or the violent reaction by militants will not work this time. Fighting factions must be isolated and forced to sit down and share power instead of prolonging this conflict to only reach the same conclusion after the loss of so many innocent lives, there is less appetite for war and I hope this helps to shorten the life of this crisis.

The Christmas Day attacks show the growing national ambition of the sect known as Boko Haram, which is responsible for at least 491 killings this year alone, according to an Associated Press count. The assaults come a year after a series of Christmas Eve bombings in Jos claimed by the militants left at least 32 dead and 74 wounded.

As I understand it, the AL delegation that is now present in Damascus, is not supposed to monitor the events, but to negotiate an agreement with the junta regarding the terms of the larger group of monitors.

I doubt the willingness of the junta to be “monitored”. We know exactly what is going on. The problem is that the documentation by the brave Syrian YouTubers who upload their clips onto YouTube, their material is useless in legal terms. It cannot be used as legal evidence.

The monitoring and documentation that is supposed to be done by the AL, will have legal value. The junta knows that this legal documentation might be used against them, even bring them to the ICC. They will never allow outsiders to expose their crimes and atrocities. The AL soon will have no alternative but to refer the Syria case to the UNSC.

After Signing Arab League Protocol, Will the Media Be Allowed Back into Syria?

By: Wissam Kanaan

Published Thursday, December 22, 2011

The Arab League protocol that Syria signed stipulates that the government must allow international media into the country. Will Damascus give access to those outlets that it views as hostile to the regime?

Damascus – The media has found it almost impossible to cover events in Syria after the popular protests broke out. Some channels have resorted to broadcasting eyewitness reports while others depended mostly on the statements and reports aired by Syrian state media.

This situation could change now that the Syrian authorities have signed an Arab League initiative that would allow a group of observers to enter the country. This group will include a considerable number of journalists who will enter the country to evaluate the state of affairs.

However, the question remains, will the doors of Syria be open to everyone or only to specific media outlets?

Abdul Fattah Awad, an official in the government body that regulates media, said that the government does not have any say in determining which media representatives will enter Syria. But he added that “though the picture is not yet very clear, we believe that the doors will be open to all the media organizations who wish to come.”

Awad hopes that some of the media that have played a role in exacerbating the crisis will be encouraged by their presence in the country “to temper their views, be more fair, and stop their war on Syria.”

For his part, the chief editor of Baath newspaper, Adnan Abdel Rizk, confirmed that Syria will not ban any media outlets since it has pledged not to do so by signing the Arab League observers’ protocol.

While some believe that the media’s presence may help to resolve the Syrian crisis, others fear it would merely exacerbate an already tense situation.

“The men and women of the media will face a true challenge; they will have to rely solely on their cameras and not on social networking sites and such,” Abdel Rizk said.

“For this reason, if the media wants to play a positive role in resolving the crisis, many organizations will have to abandon the inflammatory words and stances they use in the service of their own political agendas.”

Meanwhile Johnny Ebbo, a reporter for the German Press Agency, claimed that “this is a very positive step. The Syrian people and the international public need to know what is going on in some Syrian regions that are more or less isolated from the outside world, after the media was banned from entering by the Syrian authorities.”

The protocol demands that the government grant credentials to the media and refrain from interfering in their work. Furthermore “the observers must be given the freedom to communicate and coordinate with non-governmental organizations, government officials, and any individual or family affected in one way or another by the recent events.”

The protocol grants observers “complete freedom of movement as well as the freedom to conduct visits and talk to anyone in the process of carrying out their mission.”

A source in the ministry of information explained that a panel should arrive in Syria soon to discuss the observers’ arrival. He also said that media workers who wish to enter Syria must send requests to the ministry, which will in turn decide whether or not to accept them, after verifying the “good intentions” of these representatives.

The source does not believe any media organization will be banned despite proof that certain Arab channels have “falsified facts and worked to incite people against Syria’s people and regime.”

Syrian Christians seek only Christmas peace
By Sammy Ketz (AFP) – 53 minutes ago
MISHTAYA, Syria — Escaping a city wracked by incessant violence, Syrian Christians from Homs flocked to a nearby monastery on Sunday to celebrate Christmas away from a place that “has gone mad.”

The Saint George de Mishtaya monastery, parts of which were built in the sixth century, lies in a lush valley some 50 kilometres (30 miles) from Homs which has become a major frontline in the uprising against the regime.

The famous Krak des Chevaliers, a remarkably well-preserved Crusades-era castle, is visible across the valley, and the green, peaceful region serves as the cradle of Christianity in a country that is now threatening to unravel.

“At the start, the unrest didn’t affect certain neighbourhoods of Homs, but today madness has seized the city,” said Rami, 37, who crossed herself as the bishop passed along the aisles of the church, blessing those in attendance.

Rami, who lives with his wife in Homs, said armed men are now visible “everywhere” in the city.

“It’s very dangerous,” he added.

“I have three storage units in Baba Amro (district), but I haven’t been there in three months.

“The last time, an armed man asked for my identity card and in seeing my name swore that I had been very lucky. ‘If you had been an Alawite, I would have cut you through,’ making a gesture with his thumb,” recalled the engineer, who also has a shop in the city centre.

Sectarian killings in Homs have increased and the victims have primarily been Sunni Muslims and members of the Alawite Shiite sect, to which Syria’s defiant President Bashar al-Assad also belongs.

While regime forces increased their presence in Homs as the uprising there intensified, no one praying at the monastery on Christmas Day was prepared to identify the other groups of armed men now patrolling the streets of the industrial city 160 kilometres north of Damascus.

The regime’s opponents and the Local Coordinating Committees, a group that organises many of the anti-Assad protests, say the non-government forces are army deserters who refused orders to fire on protesters.

The regime insists that they are “armed gangs” or radical Islamists who want to plunge Syria into chaos, rather than usher in a new era of democratic governance, as the opposition claims.

Rami’s wife Mara, a lecturer at the pharmacy faculty in Homs university who was cradling their five-month-old baby in her arms, decided to stop teaching there at the end of the semester.

“It is out of the question to spend Christmas, a holiday of peace, in that city. Now we are seriously planning to stay here,” added Mara, 27.

The sound of automatic gunfire and explosions could be heard on Christmas Day from 0400 GMT, according to reports from the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Tonya, a schoolteacher in a Homs neighbourhood affected by the relentless violence, said she and her colleagues have tried to continue working, even if their efforts sometimes prove to be futile.

“The school is open. We are 35 teachers who come in turns, but there are no students. What parent would be crazy enough to send their children to class while there are daily battles between soldiers and armed men?” the 48-year-old asked.

Some 200,000 Christians live in Homs, which also has 16 churches.

Half are Greek Orthodox, but most other branches of Christianity are also represented, according to George Abu Zakhem, metropolitan of the Orthodox church in Homs.

“Since the start of the events in March, 80 Christians have been killed, including 20 soldiers. We count three children among them,” the clergyman said.

This is a relative figure, as the hospital coroner has previously said an average of 200 people are killed in Homs each month.

In the monastery’s basilica, built in the sixth century, Norma, her head covered by a shawl, asked God to restore peace in Syria, where the United Nations says more than 5,000 people have been killed since the unrest began.

“My husband has stayed here in this village since April after having closed his office in Bab Sebaa (in Homs). To feed my family, I spend half the week in Homs and the other half here,” said the 45-year-old dentist.

“It is truly terrifying every time, but if you want, you can overcome it. There is no other choice,” she added. Norma said she had an uncle who was violently killed and another who was kidnapped four months ago.

“Every night there is shooting” in Homs, she said. “That city has gone mad.”

Ghufran, please enlighten us. This elderly man, a Muslim, perhaps your age. Is his chanting advocating “violence as a tool to achieve political goals” or, perhaps “Allah-u-Akbar” is what you describe as “the problems in Islam today is Muslims themselves not their external enemies.”

Does this Syrian deserves to be treated by Assad henchmen as such?
Depicting Syrian Muslims as “problems” worse than external enemies. Your hatred toward Muslims is non-existent among my people. You should be ashamed of yourself, the end never justifies the mean. Unless, Islam and Muslims is your end goal.

Today in Moscow another demonstrations that has at least 30,000 against Putin, these demonstration have the potential to change Russia.
Russia suggested that Bashar resign and Farooq Al Shar3 take over a transitional goverment.

Today as we talk Homs is under sever military attack with all kinds of weapons , a crime under the eye of Al and the whole world.

this revolution is very important ,it is about what we will bequearh to the next generation, our generation accepted to live under Assad dictatorship, we either be called cowards, or we go on to get rid of dictatorship and give our children freedom so they will be proud of us.

David Riff – the American political scientist and the publicist, the senior research assistant of Institute of world politics, the councilor under the international relations, specializing on studying of modern humanitarian conflicts, international and ethnic. The author of the monography «A Bed for the Night: Humanitarianism in Crisis» (2003). David Riffa’s last articles are devoted situation development in the Near East.
David Riff is the unique son of the American writer-feminist and ????????? left views of Sjuzen Zontag (1933-2004) and conservative sociologist Phillip Riffa (1922–2006). David has devoted to memory of mother the book «Swimming in a Sea of Death: A Son’s Memoir» (2008).

– Dear sir Riff how, in your opinion, the situation will develop in Syria? Whether it is necessary the world to prepare for civil war, or you suppose possibility of the political permission of this conflict?

– It is important to note another – any role taken on the USA, it will be a little limited, until government Asada remains in power. But if (I underline “if”) mode change nevertheless occurs, a role of America will raise. Till this time a position of the USA in this region rather ???????????. However military intrusion is absolutely excluded, and the geographical position of this country does not allow to carry out high-grade blockade or the effective policy of embargo.

In general in relation to the Syrian problem it is necessary to argue it is realistic. In Washington publicists can tell everything, coming out with the assumption that Barack Obama and US State Secretary Hillari Clinton could offer «any variants» successions of events. However as a matter of fact the choice, in my opinion, is not great.

– How to you the situation in Near-Eastern region in the whole ambassador of a train of the Arabian revolutions sees?

– Extremely a difficult situation. On a scene it is too much the characters, even more different interests. At the USA in the Near East, for example, the whole complex of interests, but some of them directly contradict each other. There are no bases to believe as if now States are not so capable to spread Pax Americana from Washington, but all the matter is that it cannot long proceed.

Let’s remember the eightieth – already it is impossible to name Reagan’s expedition to Lebanon very successful. But me present grumble apropos ostensibly decrease in influence of the USA in the Near East also is not clear.

Near-Eastern diplomacy reminds three-dimensional chess. The Arabian spring the phenomenon non-uniform, in Egypt, for example, is yet clear who from opponents of Mubaraka will come to power. And I am not assured that the USA can affect this decision. But matter is not that it only our weakness. The Arabian spring is important as a phenomenon, but for the USA it is not more important than trade relations with China or prospects of the European economy. It is not necessary to transform the Arabian spring into a certain fetish, whose symbolical value, in my opinion, rather doubtfully.

– The voices are how much influential, calling to solve the Syrian problem the Libyan way?

– To such voices in America do not listen. They rustle from own powerlessness. In America there was a considerable opposition on the right (left it is not counted) to that happens in Libya. But these people do not consider that against Kaddafi and really popular uprising has risen originally. Always there are people of type of John Boltona who repeat aggressive phrases as the learned text, but all their words – no more than pre-election rhetoric as you understand. As to mass support of military operation in Syria it is absent from both parties – both with republican, and with democratic.

– Whether it seems to you, what the reform of political system offered by the Syrian management quite comprehensible variant of an overcoming the crisis? Whether serious political players (including the USA) show interest to situation settlement according to the plan of Assada?

I at all do not trust in this plan. It is impossible to accept seriously statements for readiness for reforms from the person constantly killing own citizens. About reforms do not speak, firing at own cities from tanks.

But even if Asad will keep the power and will finish with “rebels”, at the USA as any great power, still has interests in region where Syria plays not last role. There are no eternal enemies just as there are no also eternal friends. The USA for today basically not in forces completely to define a situation, to influence falling or preservation of any mode.

But to play the, start up marginal, a role we can. At present time the event in Syria depends on success of reprisals of a mode, from, whether of Assad still trust of the generals and other representatives of the Syrian elite enjoys, whether the Islamic clergy is ready to be silent. All the rest, believe, it is minor.

– What new foreign policy doctrine the American management can accept in the near future? Whether you think, what if the policy of restraint concerning Iran elimination of Asada to it will be quite conformable will be its key element?

– No, it is not essential. The policy of the USA concerning Iran remains same what it was when in Syria against Asada anybody and did not think of excitements. Your preconditions – are unacceptable. The question of restraint of Iran is not connected in any way with presence of a mode of Asada in Damascus. Yes, Asad is the ally of Iran, is on friendly terms with Teheran, but strategically Americans are excited with the Iranian nuclear program. The rest is minor. And mode change in Damascus will not be reflected in any way in our nuclear opposition with Iranians. Allow to remind that at Bush the Syrian channel considered useful in respect of the arabo-Israeli dialogue. But also then we as were disturbed by Iran …

– Israel does not want change
– Syrian economy is being seriously affected by the crisis, brain drain will continue

NZ,
read your post and mine again and tell me how the post and your response are related !!
the majority of Muslims killed after the Iraq war,for example, are murdered by fellow Muslims and not by external powers,violence is almost a daily ritual in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, etc,and now Syria. Regardless of who is committing more violence,most aggressors are Muslims and most victims are Muslims too,the truth is not always pleasant. oppression by corrupt Arab governments and the negative role religion plays in Muslim countries have a lot to do with the sad state of those countries,so the fix is a secular democracy especially in a diverse society like Syria,but any time you say the word “secular” here you are added to the regime supporters list !!

Khalid,

people who fear God and have faith are trustworthy, but they have to delver on promises and not interfere in other people’s lives, the question is going to be, would they leave if they fail and the people vote them out or use their faith as a reason to stay as we have now with Baath party,

Sunnis in Iran are not much different from Shia in Saudi Arabia,both are deprived of fair political representation. as for women in Iran,I have to say that they are way better than women in Saudi Arabia but they are still under the unforgiving rule of the Mullahs,keep in mind that Iranian women ,even today, are doctors,teachers,etc and are allowed to drive,I think that Saudi Arabia is the last country to speak about political freedom or women rights.Those of you who have already believed the Islamists promises about freedom and minority rights should at least wait a year or two before they can tell if the new rulers are as tolerant as they say,I am certainly skeptical.

The rift between Turkey and France: Is it Armenians or Syrians?
http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/the-rift-between-turkey-and-france-is-it-armenians-or-syrians.aspx?PageID=238&NID=9972&NewsCatID=406

Turkey was infuriated by France when the French Parliament passed a bill criminalizing “denials of the 1915 events as genocide.” The bill may be highly controversial and the French move seems to be the product of a more political decision rather than a matter of humanistic principals. Yet, the Turkish reaction is also debatable since, first of all, it turned out to be a bitter personal attack on Nicolas Sarkozy, so much so that even the Jewishness of the president has been mentioned. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdo?an reminded him that it was the Ottomans who rescued many Jews from the Spanish Inquisition. Moreover, the French are reminded how Süleyman the Magnificent helped the French king at the time. Finally, Turkish politicians and journalists threatened France by recognizing France’s oppression in Algeria as genocide. It means that Turkey also behaves in accordance with political concerns on historical and humanistic issues and that if France were to turn a blind eye to the Armenian events, Turkey would be ready to do the same over what happened in Algeria and elsewhere. 

The argument in terms of freedom of speech is even more open to debate. Those who claim that penalizing the denial of the “Armenian genocide” is a contradiction with the principle of free speech and violates the freedom of historical research forget the fact that Turkey penalizes talk of the Armenian genocide by the infamous article 301. Besides, the other limitations on freedom of speech concerning many other issues in Turkey could also be mentioned if we intended to genuinely discuss the issue of freedom of speech.

Unfortunately, the debates and political measures concerning historical “crimes against humanity” have always been more a matter of political interest rather than universal humanistic principles in all countries and at all times. France is no exception. That is why, I think, the latest French move should be evaluated more in terms of international politics rather than being seen as a whim of Sarkozy or even as a result of his domestic political concerns. 

Only a month ago, we witnessed Turkey-France rapprochement over Syria. The French foreign minister visited Turkey in November and held a press conference with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davuto?lu. Alain Juppe said France could cooperate with Turkey on Syria and emphasized the importance of imposing serious sanctions on Syria. Then, Juppe stated that France favored Turkey’s participation in the EU’s meeting on Syria, which was held Nov. 30. In the end, it was believed that Turkey was not invited to the EU meeting because of Cyprus’ veto. Later it was claimed that Cyprus had, in fact, withdrawn its veto, but that it was Egypt that did not want Turkey to participate (Milliyet, Asl? Ayd?nta?ba?, Dec. 15). Meanwhile, Turkey has also been excluded from the recent agreement brokered between the Arab League and Syria. 

What happens and what is the meaning of all these developments, one wonders. Is it a disagreement over Syria among those actors which led to the recent developments? Leaving aside the changing directions in Turkey’s relations with Arab countries, why is it that France, which seemed to encourage Turkish engagement in Syria, has come to the point of confrontation with Turkey? Is it possible to think that Sarkozy dared to confront Turkey over the Armenian issue without considering possible Turkish-French cooperation over Syria? If not, we have to focus more on negotiations over Syria to be able to understand what is happening between Turkey and France rather than remembering the times of Süleyman the Magnificent.

Hi. Is there more than one Habib? One Habib said he is not Syrian and another Habib refers to Syria as “us” Are you Syrian or not? I’d believe what you say but be consistent.

No I don’t think Besho bombed the churches in Nigeria. I am not a regime supporters. I don’t believe in conspiracy, remember?

BTW, how come the regime figured out the that al Quaeda is behind Damascus bombing in 13 minutes and could not figure out who is behind the “armed gangs” for the last 10 months? Selective intelligence?

There was actually another Habib before me on SC, but I don’t believe he posts anymore. My nationality is not Syrian, but I have very close blood ties to the country.

Al-Qaeda has only been accused of the bombings, no one has said they did it for sure. And as for the armed gangs, it has been claimed they were homegrown and foreign Salafists for months now.

And if you don’t believe in conspiracy theories, how come you believe the regime is behind the Damascus bombs? That is, after all, pretty much a conspiracy theory, no?

Ok. You are the non-Syrian Habib. My guess is that you are Iraqi but it doesn’t really matter. I am intrigued by the reasons why some non-Syrians support the regime. In case of Iraqi Shiaa, it hurts a lot. I hated Saddam very much and was wholeheartedly against Shiaa and Kurds oppression, and although I was against the American invasion of Iraq under the pretext of WMD, I felt Saddams and his family deserved their destiny, and always hailed the day Saddam was executed although I did not like it to be in Ramadan. I always thought the oppressed sympathize with each other. It looks like I always thought wrong…Iraqi Shiaa easily forgot their dark days… and you know the rest.

I don’t know who was behind Damascus bombing but I can’t rule out the regime involvement. A regime that tortured a 12 year old can do anything.

President Assad is not an op presser, he was securing the safety of the Syrian people in a very hostile neighborhood, and providing for more than a million Iraqi free health care and education without any assistant from the country that is responsible for that disaster, that is equal to more than 15 million crossing the border into the US, can you imagine the problems that the US would have faced in such case.

About the bombing in Syria, it is obvious that the US believe Syria, otherwise it would have not condemned the bombing and we would have heard more from the Gulf states who seem to be quite as they did after 9/11/2001.

By the way, do you know that Syria / president Assad was the first country to condemn that attack.

President Assad had to face an American invasion of Iraq with intention of moving toward Syria in what they called move left to Damascus after the fall of Baghdad, then he had to face the Hariri assassination and the lack of maturity from the Syrian opposition that were undermining Syria’s foreign policy
President Assad intention was always political reform, he did not want to be president but was the consensus man for the job, he always wanted political reform but rightly he wanted to improve the economy to expand the middle class, so people will not vote out of anger or religion but out of self interest, it is unfortunate that the elite of Syria did not not want to share and lift the standard of living of the rest of Syria and he could not convince them to do that, so we have what we have , how many of these people who are dieing really wanted to be president, the leaders of the opposition who are using the Syrian people who just want respect and an opportunity to succeed , president Assad will probably not run the next time around but if his opponent see weakness they will ask for his blood and he will lose the support of the people who are counting on him to keep them safe.

if the opposition really want reform , they would have come to the table and ask that he does not run, not call for his execution then expect him to drop dead, that will never happen.

the judiciary is independent from the executive branch in Iraq, AL Maliki made a mistake in being in the forefront of the accusation, he should have left the security court which is a federal court in Iraq to do it’s work, If we want to have a law and order country in Iraq and in Syria in the future we have to accept that leaders do not have immunity from prosecution and that they are under the same laws that the rest of the people under, otherwise corruption will stay in our countries forever.

I am glad that AL Maliki is leaving everything to the court and i hope that the VP will respect the court system in Iraq and fight within the system.

Shia Iraqis know that a government controlled by the Muslim Brotherhood will be the enemy of Shias and all non-Islamist Sunnis for that matter.

Such a government is inevitable now. So what choice do they have other than supporting the regime? The same for the Syrian minorities.

Yes, maybe a new government will be secular and fair. But too much is at stake if that bet is wrong, and it very much seems to be, judged on what happened in Tunisia, Libya and Egypt. The Copts, leftists and blacks learned it the hard way.

Although, even here, their predictions understate the scope and depth of the crisis, there are powerful reasons to believe that beginning in 2012, we are heading toward a steeper decline than what was experienced during the Great Recession of 2008 – 2009. With fewer resources, greater debt and increasing popular resistance to shouldering the burden of saving the capitalist system, the governments cannot bail out the system.

Many of the major institutions and economic relations which were cause and consequence of world and regional capitalist expansion over the past three decades are in the process of disintegration and disarray. The previous economic engines of global expansion, the US and the European Union, have exhausted their potentialities and are in open decline. The new centers of growth, China, India, Brazil, Russia, which for a ‘short decade’ provided a new impetus for world growth have run their course and are de-accelerating rapidly and will continue to do so throughout the new year.

The Collapse of the European Union

Specifically, the crises-wracked European Union will break up and the de facto multi-tiered structure will turn into a series of bilateral/multi-lateral trade and investment agreements. Germany, France, the Low and Nordic countries will attempt to weather the downturn. England – namely the City of London, in splendid isolation, will sink into negative growth, its financiers scrambling to find new speculative opportunities among the Gulf petrol-states and other ‘niches’. Eastern and Central Europe, particularly Poland and the Czech Republic, will deepen their ties to Germany but will suffer the consequences of the general decline of world markets. Southern Europe (Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy) will enter into a deep depression as the massive debt payments fueled by savage assaults on wages and social benefits will severely reduce consumer demand.

Depression level unemployment and under-employment running to one-third of the labor force will detonate year-long social conflicts, intensifying into popular uprisings. Eventually a break-up of the European Union is almost inevitable. The euro as a currency of choice will be replaced by or return to national issues accompanied by devaluations and protectionism. Nationalism will be the order of the day. Banks in Germany, France and Switzerland will suffer huge losses on their loans to the South. Major bailouts will become necessary, polarizing German and French societies, between the tax-paying majorities and the bankers. Trade union militancy and rightwing pseudo-‘populism’ (neo-fascism) will intensify the class and national struggles.

A depressed, fragmented and polarized Europe will be less likely to join in any Zionist inspired US-Israeli military adventure against Iran (or even Syria). Crisis ridden Europe will oppose Washington’s confrontationalist approach to Russia and China.

The US: The Recession Returns with a Vengeance

The US economy will suffer the consequences of its ballooning fiscal deficit and will not be able to spend its way out of the world recession of 2012. Nor can it count on ‘exporting’ its way out of negative growth by turning to previously dynamic Asia, as China, India, and the rest of Asia are losing economic steam. China will grow far below its 9% moving average. India will decline from 8% to 5% or lower. Moreover, the Obama regime’s military policy of ‘encirclement’, its economic policy of exclusion and protectionism will preclude any new stimulus from China.

Militarism Exacerbates the Economic Downturn

The US and England will be the biggest losers from the Iraqi post war economic reconstruction. Of $186 billion dollars in infrastructure projects, US and UK corporations will gain less than 5% (Financial Times, 12/16/11, p 1 and 3). A similar outcome is likely in Libya and elsewhere. US imperial militarism destroys an adversary, plunging into debt to do so, and non-belligerents reap the lucrative post-war economic reconstruction contracts.

The US economy will fall into recession in 2012, and the “jobless recovery of 2011” will be replaced by a steep increase of unemployment in 2012. In fact, the entire labor force will shrink as people losing their unemployment benefits will fail to register.

Labor exploitation (“productivity”) will intensify as capitalists force workers to produce more, for less pay, thus widening the income gap between wages and profits.

The economic downturn and growth of unemployment will be accompanied by savage cuts in social programs to subsidize financially troubled banks and industries. The debates among the parties will be over how large the cuts to workers and retirees will be to secure the ‘confidence’ of the bondholders. Faced with equally limited political choices, the electorate will react by voting out incumbents, abstaining and via spontaneous and organized mass movements, such as the “occupy Wall Street” protest. Dissatisfaction, hostility, and frustration will pervade the culture. Democratic Party demagogues will scapegoat China; the Republican Party demagogues will blame the immigrants. Both will fulminate against “the Islamo-fascists” and especially against Iran.

New Wars in the Midst of Crises: Zionists Pull the Trigger

The “52 Presidents of the Major American Jewish Organizations” and their “Israel First” followers in the US Congress, State Department, Treasury, and the Pentagon will push for war with Iran. If they are successful it will result in a regional conflagration and world depression. Given the extremist Israeli regime’s success in securing blind obedience to its war policies from the US Congress and White House, any doubts about the real possibility of a major catastrophic outcome can be set aside.

China: Compensatory Mechanisms in 2012

China will face the global recession of 2012 with several possibilities of ameliorating its impact. Beijing can shift toward producing goods and services for the 700 million domestic consumers currently out of the economic loop. By increasing wages, social services, and environmental safety, China can compensate for the loss of overseas markets. China’s economic growth, which is largely dependent on real estate speculation, will be adversely affected when the bubble is burst. A sharp downturn will result, leading to job losses, municipal bankruptcies and increased social and class conflicts. This can result in either greater repression or gradual democratization. The outcome will profoundly affect China’s market-state relations. The economic crisis will likely strengthen state control over the market.

Russia Faces the Crisis

Russia’s election of President Putin will lead to less collaboration in backing US promoted uprisings and sanctions against Russian allies and trading partners. Putin will turn toward greater ties with China and will benefit from the break-up of the EU and the weakening of NATO.

The western media backed opposition will use its financial clout to erode Putin’s image and encourage investment boycotts though they will lose the Presidential elections by a big margin. The world recession will weaken the Russian economy and will force it to choose between greater public ownership or greater dependency on state funds to bail out prominent oligarchs.

The Transition 2011-2012: From Regional Stagnation and Recession to World Crises

The year 2011 laid the groundwork for the breakdown of the European Union. The crises began with the demise of the Euro, stagnation in the US and the outbreak of mass protests against the obscene inequalities on a world scale. The events of 2011 were a dress rehearsal for a new year of full scale trade wars between major powers, sharpening inter-imperialist struggles and the likelihood of popular rebellions turning into revolutions. Moreover, the escalation of Zionist-orchestrated war fever against Iran in 2011 promises the biggest regional war since the US-Indo-Chinese conflict. The electoral campaigns and outcomes of Presidential elections in the US, Russia and France will deepen the global conflicts and economic crises.

During 2011 the Obama regime announced a policy of military confrontation with Russia and China and policies designed to undermine and degrade China’s rise as a world economic power. In the face of a deepening economic recession and with the decline of overseas markets, especially in Europe, a major trade war will unfold. Washington will aggressively pursue policies limiting Chinese exports and investments. The White House will escalate its efforts to disrupt China’s trade and investments in Asia, Africa and elsewhere. We can expect greater US efforts to exploit China’s internal ethnic and popular conflicts and to increase its military presence off China’s coastline. A major provocation or fabricated incident in this context is not to be excluded. The result in 2012 could lead to rabid chauvinist calls for a costly new ‘Cold War’. Obama has provided the framework and justification for a large-scale, long-term confrontation with China. This will be seen as a desperate effort to prop up US influence and strategic positions in Asia. The US military “quadrangle of power” – US-Japan-Australia-South Korea – with satellite support from the Philippines, will pit China’s market ties against Washington’s military build-up.

Europe: Deeper Austerity and Intensified Class Struggle

The austerity programs imposed in Europe, from England to Latvia to southern Europe will really take hold in 2012. Massive public sector firings and reduced private sector salaries and job opportunities will lead to a year of permanent class warfare and regime challenges. The ‘austerity policies’ in the South, will be accompanied by debt defaults resulting in bank failures in France and Germany. England’s financial ruling class, isolated from Europe, but dominant in England, will insist that the Conservatives ‘repress’ labor and popular unrest. A new tough neo-Thatcherite style of autocratic rule will emerge; the Labor-trade union opposition will issue empty protests and tighten the leash on the rebellious populace. In a word, the regressive socio-economic policies put in place in 2011 have set the stage for new police-state regimes and more acute and possibly bloody confrontations with workers and unemployed youth with no future.

The Coming Wars that End America “As We Know It”

Within the US, Obama has laid the groundwork for a new and bigger war in the Middle East by relocating troops from Iraq and Afghanistan and concentrating them against Iran. To undermine Iran, Washington is expanding clandestine military and civilian operations against Iranian allies in Syria, Pakistan, Venezuela, and China. The key to the US and Israeli bellicose strategy toward Iran is a series of wars in neighboring states, worldwide economic sanctions, cyber-attacks aimed at disabling vital industries, and clandestine terrorist assassinations of scientists and military officials. The entire push, planning, and execution of the US policies leading up to war with Iran can be empirically and without a doubt attributed to the Zionist power configuration occupying strategic positions in the US Administration, mass media and ‘civil society’. A systematic analysis of American policymakers designing and implementing economic sanctions policy in Congress finds prominent roles for such mega-Zionists (Israel-Firsters) as Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Howard Berman, Dennis Ross in the White House, Jeffrey Feltman in the State Department, and Stuart Levy, and his replacement David Cohen, in the Treasury. The White House is totally beholden to Zionist fund raisers and takes its cue from the 52 Presidents of the Major American Jewish Organization.

The Israeli-Zionist strategy is to encircle Iran, weaken it economically and attack its military. The Iraq invasion was the US’s first war for Israel; the Libyan war the second; the current proxy war against Syria is the third. These wars have destroyed Israel’s adversaries or are in the process of doing so. During 2011, economic sanctions, which were designed to create domestic discontent in Iran, were the principle weapon of choice. The global sanctions campaign engaged the entire energies of the major Jewish-Zionist lobbies. They have faced no opposition from the mass media, Congress or the White Office. The Zionist Power Configuration (ZPC) has been virtually exempt from criticism by any of the progressive, leftist and socialist journals, movements or grouplets – with a few notable exceptions.

The past year’s re-positioning of US troops from Iraq to the borders of Iran, the sanctions and the rising Big Push from Israel’s Fifth Column in the US means expanded war in the Middle East. This likely means a “surprise” aerial and maritime missile attack by US forces. This will be based on a concocted pretext of an “imminent nuclear attack” concocted by Israeli Mossad and faithfully transmitted by the ZPC to their lackeys US Congress and White House for consumption and transmission to the world. It will be a destructive, bloody, prolonged war for Israel; the US will bear the direct military cost by itself and the rest of the world will pay a dear economic price. The Zionist-promoted US war will convert the recession of early 2012 into a major depression by the end of the year and probably provoke mass upheavals.

Conclusion

All indications point to 2012 being a turning point year of unrelenting economic crisis spreading outward from Europe and the US to Asia and its dependencies in Africa and Latin America. The crisis will be truly global. Inter-imperial confrontations and colonial wars will undermine any efforts to ameliorate this crisis. In response, mass movements will emerge moving over time from protests and rebellions, and hopefully to social revolutions and political power.

*** FROM MICHAEL NeoCON WEISS TO SYRIA WITH LOVE ***

‘Military action in Syria is lesser evil’

http://www.jpost.com/MiddleEast/Article.aspx?id=250924

“I would say better to have a multilateral, Western-fronted coalition on the ground to forestall the worst-case scenario rather than let this play out on the ground,” Weiss said by phone. “People in Syria have been holding up signs saying ‘NATO, where’s our no-fly zone?’ You see women in hijabs in Homs with signs saying ‘We want NATO to invade.’ I would hazard that there is now a critical mass of support for a Western-backed intervention.”

“The likelihood of securing a United Nations Security Council resolution authorizing the use of force in Syria is remote given Russian and Chinese recalcitrance to support the Syrian revolution,” the report says. “UNSC deadlock could potentially be circumvented by invoking the ‘Uniting for Peace’ resolution (377A), which was used to authorize the ‘use of armed force’ in Korea as a way of evading UNSC obstructionism by the then-Soviet Union.”

“Is there the political will to do this? I don’t know,” Weiss said. “Everyone’s got Arab Spring fatigue and regime change fatigue. The United States has been more than sluggish on Syria – it doesn’t care. That was made clear by how long it took the Obama administration to denounce Assad… Obama has more or less outsourced handling Syria to Turkey – I think that’s a colossal mistake.”

“Any interventionist force must therefore persuade Israel not to retaliate in the event that it is attacked,” it says. “Such forbearance proved successful during the First Gulf War, and it can be argued that it is in Israel’s strategic interest to assist in the removal of the Assad regime.

Christians in Middle East in crisis this Christmas – Dec 25, 2011

http://www.alaskadispatch.com/article/christians-middle-east-crisis-christmas

This fall, a group of Iraqi-American Christians ramped up pressure on the Obama administration, warning that their ancient community in Iraq – already hobbled by eight years of war – could be pushed over the brink entirely after US forces withdraw by year’s end.

Recently, Vice President Joe Biden responded.

“Basically, we got a letter back saying: Iraq is undergoing a great democratic process and we should take advantage of that,” says Robert Dekeileta, a lawyer who volunteers with the Chaldean Assyrian Syriac Council of America. “It doesn’t take into account that democracy for us is a little bit frightening because a lot of forces in society are opposed to non-Islamic entities like ours.”

This year of dramatic political change in the Arab world – with dictators falling in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya; a violent uprising threatening Bashar al-Assad’s grip on Syria; and popular agitation for democracy in Yemen and elsewhere – has opened up the real possibility that entrenched autocracy and despotism will be replaced by governments more responsive to their people.

But the experience of political change for Iraq’s Christians is a reminder that democracy is one thing, but protecting against the tyranny of the majority is something else again.

Now, the largest Christian community in the region – the Copts of Egypt – fear that their position, status, and ultimate security in a country where they are in many ways already second-class citizens is about to erode further due to democratic change.

In Syria, too, where Christians make up about 8 percent of the population, there is fear the uprising will lead to an Islamist government more hostile to Christians than Mr. Assad’s regime was. They’re well aware of the risks of sectarian conflict and persecution, having witnessed Lebanon’s 1975-90 civil war and, more recently, the Iraq war, which spurred tens of thousands of Christians to flee to Syria.

At least half a million Iraqi Christians have fled Iraq since the US-led invasion in 2003, diminishing their community – estimated at 1 million to 1.4 million before the war – to a mere 500,000 under the pressure of sectarian killings, church attacks, and an increasingly Islamist political culture.

“Pandora’s box has been opened and everything has come out,” says scholar and former diplomat Michele Dunne, director of the Rafik Hariri Center for the Middle East at the Atlantic Council in Washington. “In those societies that have been authoritarian there is a big tendency for a tyranny of majority, for a while at least, when they change. Iraq is a very good example – suddenly there’s a tendency for [large groups] to grab the initiative and not to be thinking about the rights of others.”

The rise of Islamists

The decline of Christians in the Middle East is a story that is 1,400 years old, as old as Islam itself.

While early Christians established communities across North Africa and east as far as what is today Iraq, by the 15th century the Islamic conquest of the region had pushed Christians into ever-narrower pockets.

In many Muslim empires, extra taxes were levied on Christians, restrictions placed on jobs they could hold – and sometimes even the clothes they could wear – and they were pushed to convert to Islam.

But the region’s Christians have endured to this day, and in the middle of the 20th century their presence in the region appeared to be stabilizing. Christians in Syria, Egypt, Iraq, and elsewhere were enthusiastic supporters of Arab nationalism.

In the latter half of the century, however, Islamist politics – particularly as a form of opposition to authoritarian Arab nationalist regimes – became one of the most potent regional political forces. The shift is cultural, too; expressions of piety, such as women wearing the hijab, have grown.

Everywhere there’s been fundamental political change in the past few decades, it’s been Islamists who have come to power.

Iran’s 1979 revolution brought theocratic rule. The Iraq war ushered in an Islamist-led ruling coalition. In Tunisia’s elections this fall, the Islamist Al Nahda party got the largest share of votes. And in Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood and more extreme Salafists are on track to win a clear majority in parliament.

Dilemma for Syria’s Christians

Now many Christians across the region fear their communities are about to be pushed to the precipice.

Even in Lebanon, where Christians make up one-third of the population – the largest percentage in any Arab country – there are worries.

“We are OK for now in Lebanon because there are many of us and we cannot be persecuted easily,” says Rony Attallah, a barber in Beirut. “But I don’t think there is a future for Christians in the Middle East. The Muslims don’t want us here.”

In Syria, the Assad regime has warned of civil war if it should fall. But the Syrian opposition claims that the regime is creating a self-fulfilling prophecy by deliberately provoking sectarian hostility to scare minorities – including Christians – into maintaining support for the regime.

The dilemma facing Syrian Christians is that the longer they back the Assad regime, the greater the resentment they will breed among the largely Sunni opposition, which could eventually take power.

Copts, who make up about 10 percent of Egypt’s 81 million citizens, are unlikely to face the kind of violence Iraqi Christians saw after the removal of Saddam Hussein. But attacks on Copts have sharply increased in the past year and many are terrified of the rise of Islamists – those who want Islam to play a greater role in politics. Egypt’s Copts fear that Islamists will make the already onerous church-permitting process harder, worsen the lack of responsiveness of security forces to their concerns, and expand mob violence.

“Unfortunately it’s very likely in the short term that there will be continuing [e]migrations, as well as capital flight. Christians are disproportionately transferring their money out of the country,” says Ms. Dunne. She says it will be up to the Muslim Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party to prove it’s willing to enshrine protections for Egypt’s Christians – as it has sometimes promised – in the Constitution to put them at ease.

Tough road ahead for Egypt’s Copts

Early results from Egypt’s staggered parliamentary election, which will run through January, indicate that between the dominant Muslim Brotherhood and the far more religiously extreme and intolerant Salafi parties, the next Egyptian parliament could be 50 percent or more Islamist.

Peter Zarief, for one, is planning an escape route. The Coptic Egyptian has obtained a US visa and plans to visit a friend in North Carolina for Christmas to scope out possibilities. He has also applied for a green card, though he says he hasn’t fully decided to leave.

“We all think it’s going to be tough for Christians in Egypt,” says Mr. Zarief, a marketer at mobile phone operator Mobinil. “Every time clashes break out, they’re discussing it. With the elections, they’re talking about it even more.”

In November, Michael Posner, of the US State Department’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, told the congressional hearing “From Arab Spring to Coptic Winter” that sectarian attacks tell a “disturbing story.”

Dina Guirgis, a Copt and member of the Egyptian American Rule of Law Association, told the hearing that there have been 33 sectarian attacks in Egypt this year, with 97 killed and more than 400 injured – a sixfold increase over 2010, she said.

“While it may be alluring to blame the revolution for this serious escalation and praise the relative stability of the Mubarak days,” she told Congress, “I submit that the same societal ills and perhaps more sig-nificantly the insidious state role in inciting sectarian violence plague Egypt more than ever today, and that responsibility lies in no small measure squarely at the foot of the military dictatorship [that is now running Egypt.]”

How many Copts have left this year? No one knows yet. But while some pastors urge their congregations to stay, Zarief says his mother sometimes voices worry that Egypt could become like Iraq. “I think there will be a time when you’re not able to stand against the religious wave,” he says.

If they comply and stop acting so violently, we could take the entire place together. But of course, they cannot, because they’re zionist psychopaths who can only be reasoned with using high calibre weapons.

Of course though, the Islamists aren’t capable of this, they can only kill other muslims, never any zionists. This job can only be done by Syrians, king amongst men.

A group of University of Damascus Medical Students, named The Free Students Union, succeeded in programming the Computer of the 4th and fifth year studies auditarium to play a promo calling for joining the Strike of Dignity.

The unexpected challenge of the University’s authority caused confusion and fruitless search for the perpetrators by on hand Shabbeeha students.

Among other things the played Promo served warnings to the Dean Fawaz AlAsaad; Ammar Saati, President of the Regime’s Student Union; and the student Shabbeeh Ashraf Saleh.
Here are the included messages:
– Civili disobedians is comming
– By striking you protect all of us.
– The savage regime is taking us to war.
– Strike is our last peaceful card.
– Save your life by joining the strike.
– Your lcolleagues have been raped, so waht does it take to make you angry.
– We want our Universities to be freed of Shabbeeha.
– Ashraf Saleh, Ammar Saati, and Fawaz AlAsaad: Your turn is comming.
– Syrians have been giving their lives, so what have you given to the Revolution? At least give, by staying home.
– 60 medical students have been arrested in the name of reforms.
– Your arrested colleagues are being tortured while you listen to this lecture. Go on strike to help save them.
– I shall not take an examination of the college in which my colleague was raped.
– To strike is to lose an academic year; in Homs, It is lives that are lost every day.
– No to abuse of the sanctity of our universities.
– Forever we shall be free, against the wish of Assad!

The Free Students Union
We shall persevere until the ousting of the system.

Habib, if that is not sectarian then what is? So in the same vein, Syrian Sunnis should have never wanted the removal of Saddam and should never support the Shiaa in Bahrain. After all what you said was true: had it been Saddam, Iraq would have supported the revolution in Syria.

What you are saying is that every person should only support it’s sect lest another sect come to power and suppress him/her.

Ahram Online, Sunday 25 Dec 2011

The presence of Slovenia’s ambassador to Cairo in the populous Shubra district provoked its residents, who mistakenly identified him as a spy and reacted according to that.

Robert Kokalj and his driver were taking pictures of the poor area and street children when they were confronted by hundreds of people, who violently beat them. Police and other residents eventually intervened to end the melee.

Kokalj refused to take any legal action, saying that he should have informed authorities of his visit beforehand.

A sort of xenophobia has emerged since January’s popular revolution overthrew autocratic leader Hosni Mubarak.

Egyptian authorities have on several times arrested foreigners on charges of inciting clashes or photographing military sides, drawing widespread criticism in the process.

Three American students were arrested last month on charges of throwing firebombs at security forces during Tahrir clashes. They were later released.

This is a nice article about the situation in Syria. The one point of disagreement I have is that it is no a revolt by the poor against the rich in my opinion.
I think it is a revolt against corruption and nepotism and graft. It is a revolt against the new slavery perpetuated by the clan in power.
The most important point I would like to make and is somewhat evident on this post now by the Dear Professor is the theme that regime opponents are to be painted as subhuman and therefore any fate that may befall them is legitimate. This is the jest of the supporters of the regime now and is the one theme that it has adopted consistently from the start. Dehumanizing the other is the first step to permit a complete extermination by any means necessary. Unfortunately, for the regime and for the Syrian people it is being driven by incredible sectarian hatred that has been ingrained over hundreds of years that the “other” is responsible for oppressing “us”. Now the “us” have become the oppressors of the “other” with the narrative that this “other”is not truly revolting for dignity and freedom but is harking back to the old days of the majority oppressing the minority.
The SNC when it comes to dirty tricks is no match for this regime. Just like the MB in the 80’s naively thought that the regime would not resort to certain practices including the genocide attempt in Hama and the killing of its own people to justify a brutal crackdown.
The regime will be uprooted and it seems it is going to be long and very bloody. There is no turning back. What we are seeing now is retreat and retrenchment from one position back to the next position with one aim and one aim only to preserve the inner circle in power. It is similar to the retreat of the Germans on the Eastern front. Even if a battle of Homs or Deir is won, the regime’s war on its people is lost. It can never regain the confidence of the people it can never again reform truly without committing suicide it can never again regain the position it has regionally.
Here is some nice reading today

I’m not saying anyone should do anything, so please stop putting words in my mouth.

I’m saying that this is how people actually think, whether they are right or not has nothing to do with me, I’m simply saying that at this point, it seems to be going in that direction.

And yes, Sunni Iraqis supported Saddam and still do. Hell, non Iraqi Sunnis do to, Palestinians and Lebanese have been photographed carrying his picture during demonstrations.

Tell me, is what happened in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya not a warning sign? You’re completely fine with Islamists taking over? Wait and see, they’re unlikely to give up power once they get it, they don’t believe in elections, only if it serves them. This is an irrefutable fact of Salafist ideology.

I was wondering why the diplomatic core remains silent.

“…The Syrian Ambassador in Moscow gets EUR 15,000 a month wand other diplomates get EUR 10,000 for salaries, not to mention bonuses and pocket money for special events…

…The ambassador’s wife spent over EUR 150,000 in the span of two months on refurnishing her flat…

…nearly all Syrian diplomates got their jobs through favoritism”.

Arab observer: ‘Massive genocide’ happening in Syria
December 26, 2011  
  
A member of the Arab observer mission said on Monday that a “massive genocide” is taking place in Syria.

“The regime is taking revenge against the people [of Syria],” Mustashar Mahjoub told Al-Arabiya television.

The observer also said that the Homs neighborhood of Baba Amro is being shelled.

A nine-member advance team of Arab monitors arrived on Thursday to pave the way for the observer mission to oversee a deal aimed at ending the crackdown.

More than 5,000 people have been killed in the crackdown on nationwide democracy protests that erupted in mid-March, according to the UN’s latest estimate issued a week ago.

Syria: situation going for worse
Boris DOLGOV , 26.12.2011
The situation in Syria is definitely getting worse. In November 2011 about 20 soldiers of Syrian army were killed in an ambush by anti government armed groups. Six more servicemen died, some of them air force pilots, when Free Syrian Army militants attacked the Syrian Air Force Intelligence headquarters. The Euronews channel showed the “Army” militants posing in front of TV cameras with rifles in their hands putting forward demands the international community establish a “no fly” zone the way it had done in Libya before. Their commander explained with the zone enforced they would “get the necessary air cover and be able to free Syria”. December 8 and December 12 there were explosions at Syrian oil refineries, December 23 two the most large scale terrorist attacks since the Syrian crisis started (March 2011) took place – suicide bombers in vehicles packed with explosives targeted bases of state security and regional branch of the General Security Directorate in the Damascus suburbs. The death toll was 44 and about 150 injured. All victims were peaceful citizens just happened to be there.

The scale and level of coordination of the terrorist acts give ground to say they were subversive operations well planned and controlled from abroad. Al Kaida, Fatah Al Islam (the Victory of Islam), Jund Al-Islam (the Soldiers of Islam), A Talia al-Mukatila (Fighting Vanguard) military wing of Muslim Brotherhood, all these organizations have teams of militants operating in the Syrian territory besides criminals. The total number is 2-4 thousand. They get arms through Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan.

The sources say a team of Libyan militants headed by Abdelhakim Belhadj entered the Syrian territory. Belhadj was one of Libyan insurgent leaders and Tripoli superintendent after the Gaddafi’s regime fell. At the beginning of the 2000s he was “national emir” of the terrorist Libyan Islamic Fighting Group.

No matter all these facts the Syrian opposition abroad including the most well known “Syrian National Council” residing in Turkey and calling for the regime’s overthrow, still maintain there is a “peaceful people’s revolution against the Assad’s regime” going on in Syria” and “terrorist acts and attacks against the military are all provocations committed by the regime’s special services”. At the same time there is a patriotic organization in Syria ready for dialogue with the government. Qadri Jamil, professor of economics, leader of the Front for Change and Liberation, the most popular branch of this wing of organizations, calls for deep social, economic and political reforms. He thinks the first step in this direction should be establishment of a national unity government.

At that Navy Pillay, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, fully supports the Syrian opposition abroad slogans. In the December 12 report she stated that mass violations of human rights and tough suppression of citizens peaceful demonstrations takes place, as a result over five thousand people were dead, including 300 children. The report puts forward demands to condemn the Syrian leadership, calls for imposition of sanctions and active reaction of the world community to the events in Syria. The High Commissioner is supported by European parliament calling for “decisive actions” against Syria. At that nothing is said about 1500 servicemen and large numbers of civilians killed by militant terrorists.

The leading NATO members use the UN, the European parliament and a large number of world media outlets as a cover to do everything possible to pull through the UN Security Council a resolution condemning Syria with “the Libyan experience” in mind. That’s the case when Russia’ and China’s vetoes would save Syria from NATO air strikes (for the time being).

The role of anti Syrian forces abroad is worth of special attention. The West and Israel overtly strive to change the Syrian regime and its policy. Sunni Turkey vies with Shiite Iran for leadership in the region. Syria has a long term relationship with Iran, including confessional affinity (the major part of Syrian leadership are the Alawi, one the Shiite branches). And Syria becoming weaker meets fully the Ankara’s interests. Turkey also has territorial claims to Syria. The Persian Gulf monarchies confront the Shiite Iran and see it as a potential threat since the 1979 Islamic revolution. So they adopt more or less the same stance. The Lebanon’s right wing parties, mainly the March 14 Alliance headed by Saad Hariri, blame Syria for complicity in the killing of prime minister Rafik Hariri in 2005 (father of Saad Hariri). They don’t want Syrian influence in Lebanon. To the contrary the alliance of Lebanon’s parties and movements, who confronted the Israeli aggression in the south of the country in 2006, the Hezbollah first of all, do support the Syrian leadership, which landed them a real helping hand those days.

Jordan should also be mentioned here. Tens of thousands of Syrian immigrants stay in the country. Part of them suffered from the Assad regime and their attitude is hostile. There is still tension between Syria and Washington oriented Jordan (as some sources say 4 thousand US troops withdrawn from Iraq in December 2011 were transferred to Jordan and deployed along the Syrian border).

As it goes Russia’s influence grows in the Middle East. The statements by S. Lavrov, Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs and V. Churkin, Permanent Representative of Russia to the United Nations, saying Syrian leadership condemnation is inadmissible and the Russian proposed draft resolution on Syria put forward could contribute to the prevention of foreign intervention into this country.

‘Turkish nation must resist NATO system’
26.12.2011
The leader of the Turkish Democratic Party has called on the people of Turkey to resist the establishment of a NATO missile system in the country, Press TV reports.
In an interview with Press TV on Sunday, Namik Kemal Zeybek said, “I invite the Turkish nation to begin resistance against the establishment of the system.”

“The Czech people prevented the establishment of the NATO radar in their country, now Turkey should be given the same chance to oppose the plan, too,” added the Turkish politician.

According to the Turkish media, the NATO missile system, located in the eastern province of Malatya, will be operational next week. Ankara announced its agreement to deploy the US-made system in September.

Turkish activists say Ankara’s move to host the NATO system does not reflect the will of the Turkish nation and the government should cancel its agreement with NATO.

“All decisions can be changed. Turkey has the power and the chance to change its decision and it should use the available opportunity to cancel the agreement with NATO, because the Turkish people do not want the radar system to be established in their country,” said Ahmet Faruk Unsal, the chairman of the Organization of Human Rights and Solidarity for Oppressed People.

Over the past weeks, Turkish activists in different cities across the country have held demonstrations to voice their opposition to the deployment of the system in their country, saying that they do not want Turkey to turn into “a base for the US and Israel.”

Last week, police forces cracked down on a demonstration held in the northwestern Turkish city of Edirne.

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has said that the missile system is not against any country; however, commentators say that Turkey faces no missile threat from its neighbors, and did not need to accept the system.

Israeli strike on Iran, suicide’
26.12.2011

Iran’s defense minister says any potential Israeli military strike on the country will spell the end of the Tel Aviv regime.

Speaking late on Sunday, Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi equaled such act of aggression on the part of Tel Aviv with ‘suicide.’

He stated that an Israeli attack on Iran would be met with ‘deadly strikes,’ noting that Tel Aviv was completely isolated at the time and lacked the capability to carry out a military attack against the Islamic Republic.

Vahidi added that Tehran has made major progress and holds a unique position in all areas of defensive and offensive capability without any help from other countries. Citing the Islamic Republic’s instances of progress in the field, he referred to manufacture of unmanned reconnaissance, defensive, and assault aircraft, electronic warfare technology, aviation industry, and missile technology.

On Saturday, the defense minister pointed out that Iran’s Armed Forces have predicted the areas, where they can paralyze the enemies in any potential military engagement. “That war, is a kind of war that we are not looking for; however, if the enemy seeks to take action, we will use all aspects of our capabilities in sophisticated areas.”

The Iranian minister made reference to the downing of a US spy drone by Iran’s Armed Forces, saying the incident demonstrated Iran’s might and readiness against the enemy plans.

On December 4, the Iranian military’s electronic warfare unit announced that Iran had downed with minimal damage the US RQ-170 Sentinel stealth reconnaissance aircraft, while it was in violation of the Iranian airspace.

The aircraft, designed and developed by the American company Lockheed Martin, had crossed Iran’s border with Afghanistan and was brought down as it was flying above the northeastern city of Kashmar.

Arab observer: ‘Massive genocide’ happening in Syria
December 26, 2011

A member of the Arab observer mission said on Monday that a “massive genocide” is taking place in Syria.

“The regime is taking revenge against the people [of Syria],” Mustashar Mahjoub told Al-Arabiya television.

Tara, don’t be deceived so easily by clumsy propaganda games which confirm your bias:
http://www.sana.sy/eng/22/2011/12/26/390709.htm
“CAIRO, (SANA)- An official source at the command center of the Arab League Secretariat General’s Observers Mission to Syria underscored that the person who gave statements to some satellite Channels about conditions in Homs is NOT a member of the Mission delegation.

The source added, in a statement in Cairo Monday evening, that the name of Mistashar Mahjoub, who claimed to be a member of the Mission is NOT correct.

The source declared that a 50-member delegation would leave Cairo to Damascus later in the evening to join the Mission Chairman and the already there first delegation after their meeting with the AL Secretary General.”

The situation with Tunis forces us to remember that role which the American and Sicilian mafias have played Second World War time in disembarkation of allies to Sicilies, having provided the beginning of this process. From this point on activization of communications of a mafia with the American special services, by the way, has begun. So, in Libya and Syria Americans (and the Euroatlantic elite as a whole) can create chaos only by destruction of these states from the outside, by aggression. As occurs. Thus it is necessary to remember that the Near East – only one, though also very important “platform” of world crisis reorganization. Reorganization has global character and players at it – global. And rates global – the power and privileges in postcrisis (it is possible, postcapitalist) the world.

Endgame: A Future Scenario for Israel
http://www.documentarymoviesonline.com/endgame-a-future-scenario-for-israel/
Published on December 26, 2011 with No Comments
A future scenario for The Place of Judgment, the Middle East. Are we on course to a doom scenario? What are the scenarios for the Near East in the foreseeable future? Tension in the Middle East is mounting again, as political decisions in both the United States and Iran are now being taken by neoconservatives.

Both places have idiots in charge, states colonel Lawrence Wilkerson. And the weapon of mass destruction scenario has been dug up again, this time for Iran. Plans of attack are being made and pre-emptive strikes are being considered. Backlight presents an ominous future view on the Middle East, the Place of Judgment. For Endgame, director Marije Meerman has gathered opinions and attitudes from the US, Israel and Iran concerning Israel’s near future.

Could the possible US withdrawal from Iraq herald the destruction of Israel? And will the pro-Israel stances of the presidential candidates affect their chances? How will any rethinking of American foreign policy impact on the region?

Backlight spoke to: Martin van Creveld (Israeli military historian), Tony Judt (British historian), Brigitte Gabriel (Christian Lebanese emigre), Lawrence Wilkerson (former chief of staff to Colin Powell), Etgar Keret (Israeli writer), Anoush Ehteshami (British-Iranian political scientist) and Richard Perle (American neoconservative).

This episode also features Ahmadinejad, pastor John Hagee and Barack Obama in an attempt to illustrate the frontlines of a possible Third World War. Could the increasing tension regarding the escalation of the conflict lead to a self-fulfilling prophesy?

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/08/world/middleeast/08darnah.html

By ANTHONY SHADID
Published: March 7, 2011

DARNAH, Libya — This fiercely independent port city on the Mediterranean coast, once the center of a simmering Islamist insurgency in the 1990s, is now branded by Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi as an Islamic emirate infiltrating his embattled country.

The charge, uttered again on Monday by Libya’s foreign minister, is familiar in the Arab world, where strongmen have long presented a stark choice to their subjects and their American backers: either dictatorship or Islamists, repression or chaos.

But Darnah offers a more complex reality: a mélange where secular currents are intersecting with religious ones, drawn together by nationalist opposition to Colonel Qaddafi’s four decades of often bizarre rule. This old Barbary port, with a reputation as one of Libya’s most pious cities and, in the words of a WikiLeaks cable, a “wellspring for foreign fighters in Iraq,” suggests a more nuanced picture of what role militant Islam may play in a city and country fumbling to forge a body politic in a land without one.

No one knows what will emerge in Libya, or in Egypt or Tunisia for that matter. But so far in each place, in a remarkable legacy of the uprisings, Islamist groups are collaborating with secular counterparts to call for democratic constitutions and the rule of law. Both groups seem to believe pluralism, if won, may best guarantee their survival.

A veteran of the war in Afghanistan, imprisoned for years by Colonel Qaddafi’s government, who praises Osama bin Laden’s “good points,” but denounces the 9/11 attacks on the United States, runs Darnah’s defenses, and no one seems all that frightened by him. A secular leader of the impromptu City Council has welcomed the stand of clerics here. Young Islamists mingle with elderly diplomats at the Sahaba Mosque, plotting the revolt that for now has focused not on competing agendas, but on what kind of state might emerge.

Across the region, Islamists demonstrate a new-found sensitivity to how the West views them. They claim to be part of a national struggle and are careful in the words they choose. It is the case even in Libya, one of the world’s most isolated places, though far less so than 15 years ago.

At the mosque, Al Jazeera was on throughout the day, and the Internet has brought an alternative to the mind-numbing propaganda of state television. “There’s a change in the mind-set, and that’s more important than the revolution,” said Ashour Abu Rashed, a lawyer and one of Darnah’s three transitional leaders.

As with many cities in eastern Libya, Darnah still bears the scars of Colonel Qaddafi’s brutality, in particular the notorious massacre at Abu Salim prison in Tripoli in June 1996, when human rights advocates say as many as 1,200 inmates were killed. Nearly 100 were from Darnah, and their portraits paper the stucco walls of the Sahaba Mosque.

So do pictures of five men killed Feb. 17, whose deaths ignited the revolt here. “It was like a flame skipping from place to place,” said Sirraj Shinnib, a professor of linguistics at Omar Mukhtar University. “This place had simmered for 20 years.”

In Darnah, there is at least a passing resemblance to the aftermath of the American invasion of Iraq in 2003. Tribes and clerics emerged forcefully after authority collapsed, especially in more conservative regions.

Here, leaders of tribes like the Obeidat, Zliten, Tajjoura and Misratah already exercise authority, along with judges and a three-member council: Mr. Abu Rashed, a judge and a former diplomat, all secular figures.

Other than them, only the Muslim Brotherhood and more militant strands thought to number in the hundreds show signs of organization, many having forged bonds in prison or fighting the government in the 1990s. One of those men is Abdul-Hakim al-Hasidi, who fought for five years in Afghanistan, ended up in Colonel Qaddafi’s jails for four years and now, with hundreds of armed men, runs the defenses of Darnah and its hinterland.

He helps run much of the city’s rump bureaucracy as well, drawing on a formidable talent for logistics recognized by many in the town.

“If I answered every call, I’d be talking on the phone even if I was in the bathroom,” Mr. Hasidi joked, as he ignored a cellphone that rang incessantly.

Since the revolt began, he has fought in the town and in Brega, down the coast, and said he had helped secure hundreds of Kalashnikov rifles for the fight. But he disavows any political ambition, and it is a refrain of him and others that Libya could never be a Taliban-like state.

“Impossible,” he quipped.

“People are already Muslims, and we don’t need an Islamic state to tell us that,” he added. “If I had extremist thoughts, then people wouldn’t have sided with me.”

Libyan officials have singled out Mr. Hasidi as the head of a supposed emirate here, part of the government’s narrative that militant Islamists have hijacked the revolt.

“This group is now leading the military operations,” Foreign Minister Moussa Koussa said Monday. “Where did they come from? They came from Al Qaeda.”

Mr. Hasidi laughs at the charge. He promised to lay down his arms once victory is won and return, he said, to teaching.

“Politicians,” the 45-year-old Mr. Hasidi added, “can deal with the politics.”

Secular figures here were adamant in endorsing the Islamists’ right to form parties and, at the Sahaba Mosque, slogans were markedly bereft of religious sentiment. “Freedom, dignity and national unity,” read one.

A leaflet circulated there pronounced demands almost identical to those uttered in Egypt: a transitional government, a constitution approved by referendum, parliamentary and presidential elections and a democratic state built on pluralism, the peaceful transfer of power, the rule of law and guarantees of human rights and the protection of freedoms.

Mr. Abu Rashed, who is 66, called his generation “the generation of fear.”

“In the shadow of a new democratic system, everyone should now have their space, and every opinion should be heard,” he said. “In the end, there will be dialogue.”

Next to him was a cleric, Shukri Abdel-Hamid, who had spent 10 years in prison.

“We want a civil state, pluralism, with freedom enshrined by law,” he said, before echoing a sentiment heard often in Egypt and Tunisia. “Extremism was a reaction to oppression and the violence of the state. Give us freedom and see what happens.”

Libya’s rebellion is young, and some residents warned that Islamists may grow more radical the longer it lasts. Some at the mosque warned that foreign intervention in the conflict would be resisted. But in the town, it was tribal divisions that seemed to frighten people more than the longstanding secular and religious divide.

“There are some Islamists here, but so what,” said Marwan Saud, a pharmacist. “Let them form a party and then we’ll see. That’s their right, the freedom to speak.”

Ibrahim Badawy contributed reporting from Darnah, and David D. Kirkpatrick from Tripoli, Libya.

Carnage took place in Homs. 51 were killed today in Homs. Blood and body parts are seen on the streets in Bab al Sbaa. The footage shown on Aljazeera are heartbreaking.

Amateur video posted on the Internet by activists showed tanks in the streets in the Baba Amr district. One fired its main gun and another appeared to launch bombs from a mortar.

Mangled bodies lay in pools of blood on a narrow street, the video showed. Power lines had collapsed and cars were burnt and blasted, as if shelled by tank or mortar rounds.

“What’s happening is a slaughter,” said Fadi, a resident living near Baba Amr neighborhood. He said it was being hit with mortar bombs and heavy machinegun fire.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/12/26/us-syria-idUSTRE7BO0B620111226

The head of the observer mission, Sudanese General Mustafa al-Dabi, arrived in Damascus on Saturday.

“Our Syrian brothers are cooperating very well and without any restrictions so far,” Dabi told Reuters.

But he added that Syrian forces would be providing transportation for the observers – a move which may anger the anti-Assad opposition and draw accusations of censorship.

The first group of monitors will be divided into five 10-man teams going to five locations. Those that are expected to visit Homs on Tuesday will try to assess whether Assad is withdrawing tanks and troops from Syria’s third largest city as promised.

Delegates said they will try to keep an element of surprise.

“We will inform the Syrian side the areas we will visit on the same day so that there will be no room to direct monitors or change realities on the ground by either side,” said monitor Mohamed Salem al-Kaaby from the United Arab Emirates.

——–

The regime is capable to change the signs and stage people anywhere.  How can the monitors maintain an element of surprise if they are being transported by the regime?  The drivers can simply take them somewhere else where false signs are set up.

Translation
I read some of the names of the martyrs of Damascus explosions, and among the names was a martyr from the village Nisaf in the Misyaf area. I recalled that this was the home village of my friend and colleague from university days so I called her directly and asked her.

– Is it true that you had a martyr from your village whose name is Hani Idris
– Yes, by god, Mohammad, did you see, the terrorists killed him in Baba-Amr (homs)
– May god mercy fall on him, did you say they killed him in Baba-Amr,
– About ten days ago, didn’t you see on Al-Dunya and Cham-FM how many condolence letters were sent to his family
– No, by god, I do not follow these channels, but I saw his name among the martyrs of
Damascus explosion.
She went quite for few seconds and then said, I don’t know, may be……

Only in Syria, a person dies twice…

When the opposition want the head of the president for execution, he has the right to take their heads first, if they seek reform and peace and security, they will find him as a partner but as long as they want to execute him and the leadership in Syria, they are naive to think that the government is going to face them with open arms hugs, It is a war to the finish for both at this time .

A rapist can’t be one of the forensic experts examining a victim

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/27/world/middleeast/as-reports-of-deaths-mount-syria-observers-urged-toward-homs.html

The Arab League said its observers would travel to Homs and several other cities on Tuesday, even as human rights activists questioned how effective the mission would be. Critics have raised doubts about whether the observers can, or will, work independently of the Syrian government, and whether the team has members qualified to make sense of a conflict that looks increasingly like a civil war in which many of the combatants are not wearing uniforms.

The Arab League has still not released a list of the observers, though the names of a few people, including at least two human rights workers, have become public. Concerns have also been raised about the team leader, Lt. Gen. Mohamed al-Dabi, a former head of military intelligence and external security in Sudan.

Wissam Tarif, the Arab world campaigner for Avaaz, which documents protests, said he and other activists had repeatedly asked for biographies of the observers. He said his organization had decided not participate, over concerns that government would be escorting the observers to conflict zones, making it impossible to conduct impartial interviews.

“A rapist can’t be one of the forensic experts examining a victim,” he said.

In 275, JAD wrote a post mostly in Arabic to OTW (OTW’s blog on Syria issues is called Walls / 7ee6an / ?????

The link to the post noted is http://7ee6an.wordpress.com/2011/12/25/of-bombs-and-fake-web-sites/ )

From your blog, 7ee6an, you wrote this in a main post:

“Soon afterward, regime propagandists, one them is an SC commentator, tried to peddle a technically sounding story, which links the owner of the privacy name server providing the privacy service just activated by Mr. Emile K. Nasrallah as the culprit.”

This paragraph seems to label Jad as a ‘regime propagandist’ and must be annoying. Jad hardly deserves the label, having in this thread merely posted columns, news and views from elsewhere — from SyriaTruth, Assafir, AlAkhbar and AlManhaj (based on SyriaTV, SANA, Iranian “sources”).

In 15. JAD’s picks mentioned truck bombs (akhbar), questions on timing and targets in 20, the al Qaeda charge in 22, al Qaeda claim of responsibility in 24 (almanjaj),

As is his wont, by 90. JAD was claiming that nameless SC posters were “celebrating the killing of other Syrians in Damascus … a freak show lead by bunch of terrorists sympathizer”

In post 92, more on al Qaeda (aljaml) and then in 97 he puts forward (from where we do not know, since he did not provide a link) a splodge of DNS details …

This is what OTW is talking about in his post. The unsourced splodge from Jad was “a technically sounding story, which links the owner of the privacy name server providing the privacy service just activated by Mr. Emile K. Nasrallah as the culprit.”

In other words, you will have to read the whole OTW entry I linked to if you want to understand OTW’s position on the MB ‘site’ responsibility.

That does not seem to interest Jad. My machine translation of his remarks is necessarily awful, but I hope I get the gist:

Well! I think OTW was wrong to call Jad (without naming or linking to him) a “terrorist supporter,” or a “pathological liar” or “Dr Shithead” or “‘Stani’ friend of Goulie Ghalioun the Terror MB Hyena.”

Oops. Jad is more likely to use phrases like that. OTW said this about unnamed and unlinked persons “regime propagandists, one them is an SC commentator, tried to peddle a technically sounding story.”

Yes, regime propagandists did indeed peddle a story that pretended stupidly that an American Domain Masking service was the actual front that put up the bullshit Ikhwan hoax pages (which were registered and first populated back in November).

So the Jad who in post 90 obliquely referenced a ‘Stani’ (who by post 90 would have been … whom?) “celebrating the killing of other Syrians in Damascus on SC” or “a freak show” “bunch of terrorists sympathizer” is the same Jad who is smarting at being corralled under the term “regime propagandists.” He may even think OTW has put his family in Syria at risk of murder.

Such is the world of Syrians abroad. Syrian Commando, ID unknown, unable or unwilling to be in Syria. Jad, from the West (Canada) under a Charter of Rights, rails against ‘Stanis’ and Dr Hitank. No longer friends united under the Syrian promise, but Dr Garbage, Dr Ghoul and Dr Hysterical Sectarian and Dr NATO Bomblover and Dr Terrorist Sympathizer.

Norman, if you think of Syria as a third or fourth world country, then what chance has its authorities to investigate and judiciously deal with the aftermath of these explosions?

The best step for Assad would be to talk with Kilo and others from the internal opposition and the “local co-ordinating committees” who reject violence. As a dramatic sign of change for the vast number of Syrians who support neither the regime nor the uprising, the opposition should be given access to state television for public debates on how to find a peaceful transition to a system of pluralistic democracy. Assad should promptly repeal article 8 of the constitution, which gives his Ba’ath party the “leading role in society and state”, publish the draft new constitution that independent consultants have been preparing, and allow political parties to operate freely.

Whether Assad can summon the determination to push for real reform in place of the dither and denial that have characterised his response to the protests so far is unclear. He is right when he says the state is entitled to use force against armed rebels, but wrong to portray all opposition to his regime as “terrorist”.

It is also uncertain whether the US, Turkey and other states who have called on Assad to resign can change course now. The Arab League’s plan imposes obligations on the opposition too. Rather than taking sides with the exiles, the west should support the call for dialogue before it becomes too late.

Non arab foreign journalists should be given a better chance to cover the events in Syria and will be more objective than aljazeera and alarabia and less likely to lower their standards to meet the level of a typical third world viewer. residents of arab countries, and arab expats, who want the truth can find it if they choose to,a country like Qatar with more foreign troops and foreign labor than its own citizens,and a country like KSA where women are treated like furniture can not be trusted to deliver balanced news,they are more interested now in making up news and they are often more pathetic than SANA and Aldunya.
I find it humerous that these two goat channels owned by polygamous Sheikhs are playing advocates for freedom and democracy.

Syria’s story does not have to follow the Libyan script
The Arab League’s dialogue with Bashar al-Assad has been dismissed by Syria’s opposition – but it offers some hope

The news from Syria becomes ever more alarming. The two suicide car bombings that rocked Damascus on Friday brought a tactic of carnage not yet seen in the uprising against the government. Almost certainly the work of al-Qaida sympathisers, they may have been linked to blasts in Baghdad the previous day, targeting two Shia regimes that Sunni extremists want to shake or topple.

December had already seen the highest monthly death toll in the Syrian struggle for power, most of it at the hands of the government’s security forces. Evidence of torture and executions of captives has been shown on Britain’s Channel 4, apparently taken from mobile-phone footage which uniformed government troops took sickening pride in filming. In the north-western district of Idlib, close to the Turkish border, armed clashes are becoming more frequent; and the city of Homs, the stronghold of radical Sunni protesters, sees daily killing. Beyond the physical violence, there is the worsening economic crisis as international sanctions bite and hundreds of thousands of Syrians face a winter with dwindling supplies of oil for heating and cooking.

But amid the horror, a first glimmer of good news has appeared. The Syrian government has allowed Arab League observers into the country. They are deploying as part of a deal which offers the best, and perhaps last, chance of a political solution rather than a slide into all-out civil war.

The deal requires the government to release detainees and pull security forces out of cities where protests have been held. It also requires a serious dialogue with the opposition. Exile groups have attacked the deal as a ploy by the regime of Bashar al-Assad to gain time. They are also worried, with some justification, that the dispatch of monitors could mark a shift in the Arab League’s previously hawkish position. By putting off further sanctions and resisting western pressure to take the issue to the UN security council, the Arab League may at last be taking up the role of a mediator.

Instead of welcoming the Arab League mission, the White House issued its toughest statement to date. It claimed that “every metric shows the situation is moving against Assad” and it is “only a matter of time before this regime comes to an end”. The Syrian National Council, the umbrella for various exile groups that held its first congress in Tunisia a week ago, is keen to be recognised as the only representative of the Syrian people. Following the Libyan script, it is pressing for foreign intervention and the declaration of “safe havens” or “humanitarian corridors” that could be protected by a no-fly zone as a precursor to full-scale Nato support for their struggle.

The council does not like the Arab League’s call for dialogue since it denies the opposition a simple victory. Getting the Syrian government to agree to it was not easy. Credit goes mainly to Russia’s tireless foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov. While his bosses Putin and Medvedev are preoccupied with local turmoil at home over the recent Duma vote, unexpected street protests and the uncertainty of the upcoming presidential election, Lavrov has been working hard to forestall civil war in Syria. In a carefully calibrated signal, he let Russia abstain from, rather than oppose, a UN general assembly statement criticising the Syrian government’s “disproportionate use of force”. This was aimed at showing Assad that Russia will get tougher unless he offers honest dialogue with the opposition instead of the half-hearted measures he has proposed up to now.

In one sense Assad is fortunate. The opposition is multifaceted and divided. It includes eminent figures with secular and moderate views who want to protect Syria’s complex multicultural society from a takeover by extremist Sunni or Salafi forces. Men like Michel Kilo stand out. He spent three years in prison recently for calling for reform, but since the uprising started continues to warn publicly against sectarianism and armed revolt.

The best step for Assad would be to talk with Kilo and others from the internal opposition and the “local co-ordinating committees” who reject violence. As a dramatic sign of change for the vast number of Syrians who support neither the regime nor the uprising, the opposition should be given access to state television for public debates on how to find a peaceful transition to a system of pluralistic democracy. Assad should promptly repeal article 8 of the constitution, which gives his Ba’ath party the “leading role in society and state”, publish the draft new constitution that independent consultants have been preparing, and allow political parties to operate freely.

Whether Assad can summon the determination to push for real reform in place of the dither and denial that have characterised his response to the protests so far is unclear. He is right when he says the state is entitled to use force against armed rebels, but wrong to portray all opposition to his regime as “terrorist”.

It is also uncertain whether the US, Turkey and other states who have called on Assad to resign can change course now. The Arab League’s plan imposes obligations on the opposition too. Rather than taking sides with the exiles, the west should support the call for dialogue before it becomes too late.

The killings for political views today has moved from the streets to the Syrian university’s class room.
A pro-revolution student shoot at 5 pro-government students inside the class room killing one of them, both are 19-20yo
If that isn’t alarming to those who keep promoting violence as their only solution I don’t know what is.
People must wake up and see that all these incidents even though it’s still individual they have a major affect on the society as a whole, it’s destroying the social system and implementing hatred more than promoting a ‘bright’ future as we all want, it’s affecting each and every Syrian and not the regime.

As usual the vultures had identified the student as “pro-regime” as soon as he started shooting…

One dies as gunman fires on Syria students
As the Arab League observers begin their mission to Syria, activists say gunman shot dead a student at Damascus University
AFP , Tuesday 27 Dec 2011

http://english.ahram.org.eg/NewsContent/2/8/30335/World/Region/One-dies-as-gunman-fires-on-Syria-students.aspx

A gunman shot dead at least one student and wounded four others at Damascus University on Sunday, Syrian state media reported, in an attack activists blamed on pro-regime students.

The assailant, identified as student Ammar Balush, went on the shooting spree with a handgun during exams at the biomedical faculty, said the official SANA news agency.

One of those wounded was in a critical condition, SANA’s report said, adding Balush had “deliberately” targeted the five students, indicating the motive for the shooting was personal rather than political.

But the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that the shooting was carried out by a pro-regime gunman, and said the number of casualties was four wounded students.

“Four university students were wounded, including one who is in a critical condition, in gunfire by students who are loyalists to the regime… at Damascus University,” the Observatory said on its Facebook page.

The Local Coordination Committees, which organise the anti-regime protests on the ground, said in a statement emailed to AFP in Nicosia that three people died in what it called “random security gunfire”.

“Security forces are storming all the units in the dorms and they broke the doors and windows. Security reinforcements entered the dorms, snipers also deployed on the roof,” said the LCC statement.

The incident came as Syria was under the international spotlight on Tuesday with a team of Arab League observers in the country to oversee a deal to end violence amid a nine-month crackdown on anti-regime protests.

Six Workers Martyred, Four Injured in Explosion on Aleppo-Lattakia Road

Six workers were martyred and four were injured when the bus transporting them was caught in the blast of two explosive devices planted by terrorists on the side of the Aleppo-Lattakia road 7 kilometers of Ariha town in Idleb governorate.

SANA’s correspondent said that the explosions created two craters, each a meter in diameter, and caused considerable damage to the bus.

The martyrs and the injured men work for Deri & Taba’a, a private textile company in Aleppo. The bodies and the injured workers were transported to Idleb National Hospital.

Another victim of today’s cowardly shooting attack on students during their exam at Damascus University has passed away.
There were 5 victims sadly 2 died and 3 are still in the hospital for treatment, I hope they get well soon.

It reminds me of the first crime of the MBs at the military school where the officer killed his own students, today, a student killed two of his own class mate and injured 3 others, how sad the situation Syrian youths are forced to get into.

42killed in Syria today.  Violence against civilians has not stopped.  The inspection is going to be a whitewash.  No killing to occur in the block where the inspectors present but it is going and active in the next block.  What is the regime’s strategy exactly?  To continue denying that it is killing it’s people while civilians burry their dead everyday.  Does Bashar think the world would be fooled by such a farce? And what is the AL’s strategy? To keep the monitors in Syria while people are being slaughtered?

‘Whitewash’ – Protests rage in Syria as Arab League monitors arrive
2 hours ago

TENS OF THOUSANDS of protesters in Syria took to the streets of Homs today at the start of a visit by monitors from the Arab League – saying that the inspection is going to be a whitewash.
….
Assad pulled back his tanks from the restive city of Homs after days of relentless shelling, Arab League officials suspect it is just for show, a tactic to forestall more international condemnation and sanctions — especially since the halt in the assault came just ahead of the observers’ arrival in the city.
……
Even Tuesday, the killings continued, with the Local Coordination Committees, an activist group, reported 30 dead from various parts of the country.
….
Arab League officials say they have no illusions that Assad will stop trying to crush a street movement that has raised the most serious challenge to the 40-year rule of his family. But while its members agree Assad must go, they are divided on how and are wary that an escalation in the crisis might bring international intervention. As a result, the observer mission was their best compromise.
…..
All Arab League officials spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss the body’s internal deliberations.

Several officials said league members were divided over the best approach for getting Assad out. Saudi Arabia, Qatar and their Gulf Arab allies favor Arab sanctions on the regime and referring the issue to the U.N. Security Council for action. The Arab League has already imposed economic sanctions on Syria , but Syria ‘s immediate neighbors opted out, weakening their impact.
Egypt, on the other hand, heads a rival group that includes Sudan, Lebanon and Algeria which insists on giving the Arab peace plan a chance.
The Egypt-led camp, the officials said, hopes that enough troops and weapons will be pulled out from Syrian cities to prompt Syrians to take to the streets in large numbers, putting Assad under the kind of pressure that forced Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak and Tunisia’s Zine El Abidine Ben Ali out of office this year.
Before the redeployment of tanks in Homs on Tuesday, there had been no sign that Assad was implementing any of the peace deal’s terms or letting up on his brutal crackdown. Many believe that any easing will be temporary and limited to wherever the observers are located on any given day.
“It is a farce,” said opposition activist Maamoun al-Homsi, alluding to the league’s plan. “The Arab League is part of this farce from the beginning.

Per SNC member on Alarabya

Regime checkpoints replaced the syrian flags with the independent flag to fool the monitors that they actually belong to the “armed gangs”.

The monitors were taken to the Nuzha street in Homs as being Bab al Sbaa. They met regime worshipers who created colorful stories about armed gangs.

4 were killed in Khaledya after demonstrators poured in thinking the monitors are coming to Khaledya to “observe”. The monitors did not show and the regime felt free to take lives. 4 were killed.

Some opposition members don’t know how to cover their own militia crimes, it’s funny that now they even deny the existence of those armed militia checkpoints skynews and BBC put couple weeks ago…NO..there is no militia in Homs!
We very much believe you!
They even say the most ridiculous stories on TV thinking that people are so stupid to believe their outlandish lies:

“???? ?????? ??? ???? MBC:

Bab Alsba3 didn’t even accept the observers visit so the regime needs to pretend that Nizha is Bab Sba3…come on! where people come with those crazy stories anyway.

HRW said it was told by a Syrian security officer in Homs that his prison director had ordered him to transfer about 400 to 600 detainees from his detention facility to other places.

“The transfers happened in installments,” the official said, according to HRW. “Some detainees were moved in civilian jeeps and some in cargo trucks. My role was inside the prison, gathering the detainees and putting them in the cars. My orders from the prison director were to move the important detainees out,” the official said, according to HRW.

He said that officials told him the detainees were being taken to a military missile factory in Zaidal, outside of Homs.

Other witnesses corroborated his account, HRW said.

The Syrian security officer also said the government has issued police identification cards to military officials, according to the human rights group. HRW said it has a document that appears to be from the Syrian Defense Ministry ordering the transfer of personnel from the Defense Ministry to the Interior Ministry, which oversees the police.

“Dressing soldiers in police uniforms does not meet the Arab League call to withdraw the army,” Whitson said. “The Arab League needs to cut through Syrian government deception by pushing for full access to anywhere Syria is holding detainees.”

They obviously want to know details about the missile factory not the detainee.

According to Ghalyoun, the regime hides tanks in the apartment building’s entry!

CRIME | 27.12.2011
Syrian opposition member attacked in Berlin

Ahma has received several threats in the past
A Green Party politician and Syrian opposition activist has been attacked and injured in an assault in Berlin. Authorities are looking into whether the attackers had links with the Syrian secret services.
 
German police say a local politician in Berlin who is active in the Syrian opposition has been injured in an attack by two men in his home.

The Green Party said it suspected the Syrian secret services of being behind the attack on Ferhad Ahma, who represents the party on a Berlin district council. Ahma is also a member of the Syrian National Council, an opposition coalition group.

Police said the 37-year-old Ahma suffered serious bruises and other wounds in the attack, but declined medical treatment.

Attack with metal bars

In a statement, the Greens said two men claiming to be policemen came to Ahma’s flat at around 2 a.m. on Monday and beat him with metal bars and clubs when he opened the door.

The party said the attackers’ Arab appearance and the fact that Ahma had received previous threats led it to conclude that the attackers had links to the regime in Damascus.

Police say it is still unclear who carried out the attack.

Foreign ministry alerted

The Greens’ chief whip in the German parliament, Volker Beck, has called on German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle to summon the Syrian ambassador over the attack.

“It is unacceptable that a member of the Syrian opposition can be hunted, persecuted and intimidated in Germany by the Syrian services,” Beck said.

A foreign ministry spokeswoman said the ministry was following the case closely.

The Arab League is a tragic joke and insult to every normal decent human being in the Arab world – nothing but a stale junkyard of elderly cronies of dictators.

Its appointment of a dumb thug Sudanese “General” to strut into Syria was a lazy, inept and very stupid decision. How can he judge Assad for doing what he and his fellow war criminals back home in Sudan regard as normal?

Read: http://news.nationalpost.com/2011/12/27/syrian-activists-alarmed-by-sudanese-general-heading-arab-league-peace-mission/

The leadership and secretariat of the AL clearly saw the job to be done in Syria as so low status and meaningless it could be shoved onto a black African they personally look down on.

The AL is shaming and betraying the Arab world the same way as Mubarak, Ben Ali, Gaddafi, Saleh and Assad have done.

I indicated before that the army,like all aspects of Syrian public sector services, is in need for serious reform and rebalancing especially that good armies
not be servants of a family,a sect or a party,but that does not mean that we have the right to kill those soldiers. Imagine what will happen to Syria if its army is destroyed and replaced by a number of militias like in Iraq, I will let you do the math.
My opinion is that Assad needs to go and violence needs to stop so a national unity government is formed and elections are held.
Without such a government, violence will not stop and Syria may actually get divided.

Exactly!

When Besho is dead and gone, the Syrian Army will have to be totally overhauled and reorganized FROM THE BOTTOM UP. The Syrian military, under the Assads, was never organized to fight a foreign enemy or protect the country. it has had one purpose: to keep the Assads in power. The senior command in 80% Alawite and personally beholden to the ruling family. This is not a military to be trusted. This is not an army of the people.

During the Gaza campaign of 2008-9, Israel announced a daily 3 hours truce (which Hamas never honor), in order to give the people a chance to resupply. And food supplies from Israel never stopped.

BTW how did the German reporters enter Homs? Or it was a local crew filming for the German TV?

They usually name their crew, but this time for obvious reasons they have not given any name, but i believe that Armbruster or their jordanian office has produced that, it also seem that they remain in Homs for the time being. One can only wonder how they manage to get rid of the muhabarat thugs to enter Bab Amr, or it may be a sign that the junta is weaker now in this area.
There was a longer video, 15 min long, i am searching of this one, it was broadcasted last night.

Libya struggles to address issue of militias

By Ines Bel Aiba (AFP) – 18 hours ago

TRIPOLI — Libya’s rulers are struggling to deal with thousands of civilian fighters who helped oust Moamer Kadhafi and remain organised in armed brigades but now want key roles in the new government.

Many of these young men left school or their jobs to fight against Kadhafi’s dictatorship and are still providing security in parts of the country, including at key sites like Tripoli’s international airport.

On Sunday, Libya’s ministers of defence, interior and planning detailed a scheme to register these former rebels, hoping to integrate many of them into the military or police.

Those who choose to not join the security services could be trained in other fields, possibly outside Libya, or simply return to their school or set up businesses backed with state aid.

Interior Minister Fawzi Abdelali said the plan was not a reward for helping topple a reviled autocrat, but stressed that these fighters are needed to fill “large gaps” within the new government’s security apparatus.

But on Monday, representatives of the Union of Libyan Thwars (revolutionaries), which claims to represent 70 percent of these ex-rebels, stepped up their demands by calling on the ruling National Transitional Council (NTC) to grant them 40 percent of its seats.

The thwars “are the symbol of this revolution” and “are those with a real force on the ground”, said Fraj al-Soueihli from Misrata, the port city east of Tripoli that was besieged by Kadhafi’s men, as he affirmed the “loyalty” of the ex-rebels to the state and to the government.

The authorities, facing a barrage of demands from various groups following Kadhafi’s downfall, have so far proved reluctant to tackle the thorny issue of the militias, some of whom are heavily armed and do not intend to give up the gains they achieved during the revolution.

Some former rebels have left Tripoli as desired by the capital’s exasperated residents, but many are guarding key installations, like Tripoli’s international airport, which is controlled by the Zintan brigade, named after a town southwest of Tripoli.

One the Zintan’s brigade’s commanders was appointed as defence minister in the interim government of Prime Minister Abdel Rahim al-Kib.

The militias have understood Tripoli residents’ desire for peace and their members leave their camps only when needed, said Soueihli.

But, he added, they will give up their weapons “when the state is really in charge”, a position shared by most of the brigades.

The prime minister too maintains that the militias’ issue is “much more complex than it seems.”

One “cannot simply say ‘Thank you very much. You have liberated Libya, now go home,'” said Kib.

But several people, including some officers from the old army, are impatient with the slow pace at which security is being restored in the country and want added authority so the militias can be definitively be disarmed.

“The NTC is afraid of the thwars and does not want to exclude them as they have power,” said Colonel Bashir al-Oueidat who wants the appointment of a chief of staff for the army as soon as possible in order to rebuild the national army.

The issue of appointing the new chief is to be settled on January 1 by a committee of 25 officers chosen by the thwars at the request of the NTC.

But the committee’s decision has to be accepted by all militia groups, some of which want to see the army led by one of their own.

The former rebels remain divided, with disputes erupting into the open last week at the conference of the union of thwars.

Some complained of not being officially invited, others accused participants of being “opportunistic,” and some came to blows when members of a brigade arrived with their weapons in violations of the regulations.

There have been no clashes between opponents of the regime and the military.

See how Basharian is playing out his tricks…

“Syrian authorities have transferred perhaps hundreds of detainees to off-limits military sites to hide them from Arab League monitors now in the country,” HRW said late Tuesday.

“The Arab League should insist on full access to all Syrian sites used for detention, consistent with its agreement with the Syrian government,” the global watchdog said in a statement.

http://blogs.aljazeera.net/liveblog/syria-dec-28-2011-0849

“Syria has shown it will stop at nothing to undermine independent monitoring of its crackdown,” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. “Syria’s subterfuge makes it essential for the Arab League to draw clear lines regarding access to detainees, and be willing to speak out when those lines are crossed.”

Homs observers blocked from reality

December 28 2011 at 03:16pm 

REUTERS
Homs, Syria.
Arab League observers have not been allowed to determine the real situation in Syria’s protest hub of Homs and should return for the full picture, the French foreign ministry said on Wednesday.

“A few Arab League observers were able to be briefly present in Homs yesterday. Their presence did not prevent the continuing of the bloody crackdown in this city, where large demonstrations were violently repressed, leaving about 10 dead,” ministry spokesman Bernard Valero said.

“The brevity of their visit did not allow them to understand the reality of the situation in Homs. The Arab League observers must be allowed to return without delay to this martyr city, to travel everywhere in it freely and to have the necessary contact with the public.”

Valero said the international community would remain vigilant against any “deceit or manipulation” of the observers, who were due on Wednesday to visit three other key protest hubs after their trip to Homs on Tuesday.

“We reiterate our support for the implementation of the Arab League plan in all its components,” he said.

“The international community will be reassured when the violence has stopped, when the army had returned to barracks, when the political prisoners are freed and when foreign journalists will receive visas to go to Syria,” he said. -Sapa-AFP

The scence is of a parking lot of warehouse, in Baba Amr neighbourhood, Homs city.
Gun shots are heard in the background.
TANKS are there for all to see!!

The member addresses his chief, prbably AlDabi saying:
– We can not cross to the other side
– We attempted to cross that street but we were shot at by sniper!
– If he is not convinced (Probably referring to another observer in charge), let him come and make the crossing with us!

– An activist tries to elicit a press statement from the ALC member who declined by saying that press statements are strictly limited to ALC Chief.

Thank you very much for above link. It was shown on Aljazeera yesterday but the content was not clear. This is damning! He is essentially saying that he can only see what he is permitted to see. He could not cross to the other side. This is a mockery. The AL’s delegate should be replaced by a UN delegate to ensure credibility. This is where SNC role comes. They should alert the world to what is happening. This should be translated to all languages and sent to all news media.

Protests in Syria

Why the Assadregime of violence fails

A comment of Tomas Avenarius

Baschar al-Assad is the successor to the throne of a despot and as such now he fails: It is not any more the question whether the Assad system will end, but only, when it falls. Who hopes after the foreseeable end for the ray strength of the democracy, however, might be disappointed.

When it concerns the Internet, Baschar al-Assad is seen as an open minded person. Before the Apple-Aficionado has begun, to shoot on his insurgent people, he brought his citizens closer to the information age:
As chairman of the National Computer Society Syrian president has widespreaded internet and mobile telephony. It was Assad’s first, but his only reform. With the iPad surfing through the globalized sphere of cheaper prices and consumption of political ideas is one thing. Rebuild a dictatorship into a decent community requests, more than “drag and drop” on the shiny surface of an Apple. The requirement is courage, assertiveness and confidence in the citizens. The internet hedonist from Damascus lacks each of these reformers qualities. That is why his country is now threatening with the civil war. The Syrians had trusted Assad junior with the assumption of office as a renovator. He allowed to pass by passing passively this decade. Assads biography explains this disaster.
The President is the son of a dictator, if the father praises the horrors of the torture bench, is rarely that the son turns out to be humanist. The idea of freedom was never familar with the Assad family.

The brief stay in the West has not changed anything. As a young ophthalmologist junior has stayed two years in London. The liberal thinking for which the UK stands for, he has hidden in the narrow view through the ophthalmoscope. The Syrian have returned to Damascus as the one to whom he had been raised: heir to the throne of a despot. And as such he fails now.
It is no longer the question of whether the Assad system goes down, but only when it falls.

But it’s not just about the survival or the demise of the Assad regime. After the suicide attacks in Damascus, the plot may be either Lebanese or the Iraqi scenario. Whether the bombs in the capital really have been laid by militants or whether the attacks have been carried out by Assad thugs, plays no decisive role. The regime has lost all credit. Even a reformed Assad government does an islamist one may do. But maybe not for everyone. Aside from fighting between a portion of the people and its rulers, all signs point out to the war between the ethnic groups: Muslims, Christians, Near Eastern sects, secularists.
Who hopes that in the foreseeable end democracy is most appealing to the masses will likely to be disappointed. Democracy sounds secular. Secularism in Damascus is what he had been in all of the Arab States: a culture grafted on society and order, never to struck roots in these societies. Yes, certain layers of society have turned their backs on islam and religion- upper class members, bureaucrats, army officers, artists, writers. But the masses? No, for sure not.

In Arab countries, the state and society are not woven together as equals, they exist side by side. People live without the help of the State, and are happy as long as the state does not interfere. … They would rather pull back into the protection of their religious group, church or sect.

That it could have been different in Syria, is the illusion of those who pose when visiting foreign countries only in front of a mirror. They always want to discover the other only by their own values. But Syria has been reislamized in the last ten, fifteen years of Koranic schools, social networks, and through everyday Islam.

Why the old one and the young Assad have admitted this, remains their secret.They chased mercilessly each politicized Islamist, but they did give credit to the street preachers. This has more effects in the uprising , as it would have if an Islamist opposition group in parliament could have ever done.

The name Assad remains a symbol of lack of freedom, corruption and violence. The state of the father was in three decades guarantor for stability, his secular state was inextricably linked with the thumb screw. Even the junior shows the ugly head of Janus Arab power: one secular, the other repressive. Assad’s new reform plans are so transparent, they are aimed at the reconstruction of the state from above, with undisguised entitled to retain power. Who are declining this “offer” will be waiting for the new Syria time spent on the new Syria behind bars, at best.

If the President wanted a real new beginning, he would restrain his henchmen. 16 intelligence agencies, an army that shot the unruly citizens, police,that tortures and torments children. With these inhuman structures Assad’s Syria is no new state. And without them probably not any more. Successful reforms require now in the Middle East more than the wipe and click on an iPad .They require an renunciation from the old and open thinking.

Observer said:

The country is rapidly descending into a civil war. The regime is not capable of preventing this. This is not the 80’s where the outside world can be shut out and the press controlled and the fear rule. People have nothing more to lose and the regime has everything to lose. If the AL initiative does not bring an opening for a real and meaningful road to reform and for the rule of law to be applied to abusers of power including the closest members of the family then we are going to have a major civil war in the country.
This is going to be a disaster and a set back for at least two generations. Neither Russia nor China nor Iran are going to be able to salvage the situation.
Economic news are terrible; there is famine in some places; trees are being cut down for heating; schools are not functioning; electricity is scarce; army recruits are not showing up let alone defecting; wild construction is a sign of an absent authority; villages are arming; smuggling of weapons is in full swing.
What does this boy wonder want?
How about the incoherent support that this regime gets from some on this blog? Do they not see that there is no turning the clock back? Do they not see that some communities will be boycotted? Do they not see a divide and an iron curtain coming down between the sects like never before?
As for the AL, I am cautiously optimistic that they will see through what the regime is doing and hiding. Whether, they will have the courage to do anything about it is another thing.

366. Dear Tara,
I missed seeing it on AlJazeera and thanks for mentioing it to me.

The only accomplishements of the ALC mission that I have seen thusfar have been failures.

In spite of the many modifications of the text of the agreement that gravely undermined its independance and the unwritten concessions of the AL on its commission membership, The ALC mission has dismally failed:
– to effect any measurable degree of protection of civilians across Syria, in the city under visit, or even for ALC visiting crew themselves in an as small a place on the Syrian map as a warehouse of parking lot!

– to effect any degree of regime compliance with the spirit of the AL agreement, namely withdrawal of armed forces from cities and cessation of military activities to pave the way for political negotiations.

The ALC has succeeded where it failed.
It has documented, the unwillingness cum inability of the regime to engage in political negotiations for rightly believing it would spell the end to their reign!

It has also proven the futility of commissioning an international group to replace the ALC; for the regime shall not guarantee its safety unless it is under their control.

The monitors left the Baba Amr neighbourhood because they refused to enter the neighbourhood without being escorted by Lieutenant Colonel Mudeen Neda from the Fourth Division. The families of the martyrs and the wounded refused to meet them in his presence, and the monitors left.”

that depicts a live verbal exchange of a member of ALC and AlDabi clearly showed that he did not dare to cross the street for fear of being shot at by snipers!

If that situation was not scary to him, why didn’t he walk the talk then and showed his crew member how to run the guntlet?

I am sure with your expertise you can answer me why would an anti US organization like Al Quaida target an anti US government like Syria at this point?
Why hasnt the regime played out this first time ever suicide attack by Al Quaida in syrian soil? Its quite silent on the mediafront from the sides of the regime. I mean, compare that to much smaller events, like Haraste bombing ect, the regime does not seem to be much interested to explain the world about Syrian Al Quaida.

Firstly, the struggle that we have with Hamas, and what is going on now in Syria, are incomparable.

Hamas is joining the PLO? It’s not appropriate to tell jokes in tragic times like these.

If Hamas wants truce, it’s great. But it has nothing to do with Israel, and in no way this obliges Israel. What are their calculations, you’ll have to ask Hamas.

And lastly, did you ever hear of a winning side which asks for a truce? No? Neither did I.

well i never assesed to know that there is even something like Al Quaida in Syria.

I mean if that attack is done by al Quaida i expect a much bigger media campaign, dont tell me that they turned modest now. Israel the choosen #1 enemy of syria made an road show with buses blown up by Hamas suicide bombers. Where are the confessions, the collected foreign passports?

Personally, I think the observers are needed, regardless that all sides don’t trust them at the moment but they are the only hope we have at the moment to start the process of getting things better for all Syrians and exposing both sides dirty games, my only hope is that they can stay away from any political presser and be professional in their assessment mission not to be used for escalating the situation.

No wonder some opposition members are displeased with the AL observers today, apparently because they ‘SAW’ the armed militia in Baba Amr, they supposed not to see anything but ‘olive’ branches!

Russia, Egypt discuss investigation of NATO operations in Libya – 2011-12-28

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2011-12/28/c_131332138.htm

MOSCOW, Dec. 28 (Xinhua) — Egypt may join Russia in demanding an investigation of NATO operations in Libya, Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Kamel Amrsaid said Wednesday.

Speaking to reporters after talks with Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Amr said Moscow and Cairo have been discussing the idea proposed by Russia “with full seriousness.”

“We are considering this issue and consulting with Russian colleagues and will make a decision later,” Amr was quoted by RIA Novosti news agency as saying.

Lavrov reiterated that Moscow demanded an investigation of NATO actions after media reports said airstrikes killed dozens of civilians in Libya.

The two diplomats said Russia and Egypt would continue to pay close attention to the situation in the Middle East and North Africa, demanding that any changes be determined through dialogue “by peaceful means and without external interference.”

Russia’s U.N. ambassador, Vitaly Churkin, last week urged NATO to investigate civilian deaths in Libya, after the New York Times reported dozens of Libyan civilians were killed during NATO’s eight-month military operation.

The action was rejected by the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., who called Moscow’s demand an attempt to distract the international community from current events in Syria.

NATO also said there were no civilian casualties during the operation.

Syria releases 755 detainees not charged with killing – 2011-12-28

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2011-12/28/c_131331938.htm

DAMASCUS, Dec. 28 (Xinhua) — The Syrian government Wednesday released a total of 755 prisoners arrested during the months-old unrest, who “didn’t have blood on their hands,” the official SANA news agency reported.

The Syrian authorities have since November set free as many as 2,847 detainees, as a part of the government’s pledges to release those arrested during the ten-month-old unrest.

The release topped protestors’ demands and was stipulated in a deal concluded of late between the Syrian government and the Arab League ministerial committee to end the crisis in Syria.

Since taking office in July 2000, President Bashar al-Assad has ordered to release hundreds of political detainees.

AL observer mission concludes first day of monitoring amid violence and protests – 2011-12-28

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2011-12/28/c_131331377.htm

DAMASCUS, Dec. 28 (Xinhua) — The Arab League (AL) observer mission to unrest-torn Syria concluded its first day of ground monitoring on Tuesday amid mass protests against President Bashar al-Assad and several “terrorist attacks” in parts of the country.

Head of the AL observer mission Mohammed Ahmed Mostafa al-Dabi said Tuesday that he was satisfied with the first day of the mission’s ground monitoring, local media reported.

Semi-official news website Syria-News quoted Dabi as saying that the observers, who traveled to Syria’s restive central city of Homs, have managed to collect responses “from all parties” during the first day of their field assessment.

But no official statement is currently available about the mission’s trip on Tuesday or the future agenda of their stay.

Syria’s Dunia television said the observers will travel to the protest hubs of Hama, near Homs, and Idlib in the northwest, close to the border with Turkey, without saying when.

Syria’s official news agency SANA said the observers had met with Ghassan Abdel Al, the governor of Homs, along with some residents of the restive province.

It said the group went to Bab Amro, a hotbed of armed clashes with the government forces, in addition to other areas there.

According to SANA, some of the group’s members headed back to Damascus while others remained in Homs. It gave no further details.

Before the AL team’s tour, a gas pipeline was targeted in the early hours Tuesday by an explosive device planted by “terrorist groups” in the central city of Homs, the private Ekhbaria TV reported.

The pipeline was hit at 1:45 a.m. local time in the north of al- Ashrafiya village, said the report, adding that the pipeline carries gas from al-Rayan field in eastern Homs to power stations in the central province of Hama.

It noted that the pipeline remained ablaze for three hours and that firefighters were unable to reach the area.

This is the third attack on oil and gas pipelines in the country.

During the field monitoring, live broadcasts by Al Jazeera television showed tens of thousands of protesters gathered in the Khalidiya district, the center of Homs, to rally against Assad and plead for Arab peace monitors to bear witness to their plight.

Residents said they saw the army had pulled back some military vehicles from the city of Homs and deployed others inside governmental administration districts for further arrangement.

Moreover, about six Syrian workers were killed when their bus was blown up by two explosive devices that went off on the highway that connects coastal Latakia province with northern Aleppo city, SANA reported Tuesday.

SANA said the explosives were planted by “terrorists,” adding that the victims had been working at a textile factory and were riding in a bus back to their homes when the explosion occurred.

In a separate incident Tuesday morning, Syrian authorities clashed with an “armed group” along the Turkish border and killed a number of its members. The group was trying to facilitate the infiltration of some gunmen from the Turkish territory into Syria, it said.

A military source was quoted as saying that Syrian forces killed and wounded an unidentified number of gunmen, and seized a large quantity of weapons and ammunition. Other members of the group fled towards Turkish territories, the report said.

In yet another murky incident, a medical engineering student opened fire at his college during a mid-term exam Tuesday, killing a student and wounding three others, one of whom is in critical condition, said SANA, adding that the perpetrator fled the scene and Syrian authorities are still hunting him. The student’s motives remain unknown.

Qadri Jamil, leader of the newly-formed Popular Will Party, a gathering of communist and leftist activists, told Xinhua that “If the observers are neutral, they would help the Syrian people … Otherwise, they could further complicate the situation.”

He said Syria has “successfully avoided falling into the trap set by some parties” by signing the protocol to allow in Arab observers to monitor an end to the government’s alleged crackdown on protesters.

The observers, who are currently touring the restive Homs city and meeting its governor, are “important to pinpoint what is happening in the country,” he said, adding the situation is complicated and could have an “unpredictable outcome.”

Given the sensitivity of the issue, AL chief Nabil al-Arabi on Tuesday urged media outlets to be accurate when reporting the observers’ mission, Egypt’s official news agency MENA reported.

In Washington, the U.S. government on Tuesday condemned the escalation of violence in Syria, accusing the Syrian government of disobeying the peace accord reached with the AL.

“It was a horrible situation where the violence spiked over the course of several days. We obviously condemn this escalation of violence,” State Department spokesman Mark Toner said at a briefing.

He accused the Syrian government of escalating their attacks on several neighborhoods in Homs in western Syrian and other cities before the deployment of AL observers.

“These actions are not consistent with the terms of the Arab League initiative that the Syrian regime agreed to on Nov. 2 or the protocol on observers that the regime agreed to on Dec. 19,” Toner said.

He also urged the Syrian government to give AL observers “full access” to the Syrian people in order to carry out their mission and find out the truth.

Meanwhile, France expressed its satisfaction with Syria’s response. “So far the Damascus regime has spared no effort to disguise the reality (in Syria),” Foreign Ministry spokesman Bernard Valero said Tuesday.

“The international community will be particularly watchful for any attempt at concealment or manipulation that the Damascus regime might try,” he said. “We call for vigilance and ask that the Arab League observers be allowed to carry out their mission without hindrance.” 0 “The observers must have access to the entire city and be able to clearly and independently establish what the situation is and bring about an end to the violence,” he said.

Syria signed the AL observer protocol on Dec. 19 in Cairo after the regional bloc threatened to submit the issue to the United Nations Security Council.

The first batch of monitors, some 50 people, arrived in Syria late Monday, officially kicking off the AL’s ground assessment of Damascus’ compliance with an Arab peace plan to conclude the months-long domestic rift.

“Nothing frightening” seen in Syria protest hotbed: monitor – 2 hrs 32 mins ago

http://news.yahoo.com/mass-anti-assad-protest-homs-monitors-visit-004007199.html

BEIRUT (Reuters) – The chief Arab League monitor in Syria said he saw “nothing frightening” on a first visit to the battered protest hotbed of Homs but France called his remarks premature and urged Syria to guarantee his team free movement.

The second day of monitoring hit a snag when locals in the Homs neighborhood of Baba Amr, that has been pounded by tanks in a military crackdown on popular unrest, refused to speak with the observers in the presence of a Syrian army colonel.

The monitors aborted the visit to the district, where dozens of protesters have been killed by government tanks and snipers, and armed insurgents have shot back to protect the locals.

They later returned and entered Baba Amr unescorted but had to scrap an effort to check an area where residents believed detainees were being hidden by Assad’s forces because gunfire erupted nearby, activists told Reuters by telephone.

Unobstructed access and uncensored testimony are crucial to the Arab League’s mission to verify President Bashar al-Assad is honoring a deal to withdraw tanks and troops that have attacked protesters, free prisoners and dialogue with the opposition.

“Some places looked a bit of a mess but there was nothing frightening,” Sudanese General Mustafa Dabi, chief of the monitoring contingent, told Reuters by telephone from Damascus.

“The situation seemed reassuring so far,” he said on Wednesday after his team’s first foray into the city of one million people, the epicenter of revolt against Assad.

“But remember, this was only the first day and it will need investigation. We have 20 people who will be there for a long time,” Dabi said. The monitoring team is to number 150 in all, with most due to arrive by the end of the week.

Assad says he is fighting Islamist terrorism from outside Syria. Over 2,000 soldiers and police have been killed in the past nine months, according to the government.

Security forces used tear gas to scatter an anti-Assad rally in Hama, another major flashpoint of unrest protests to the north of Homs that Arab monitors plan to visit on Thursday. At least seven people were reported wounded.

Al Jazeera television showed gunfire, rising black smoke and men in Hama marching through the streets chanting, “Where are the Arab monitors?” One was bleeding from the neck.

The monitors’ setback in Homs because of resident objections to a Syrian colonel escorting them fed into opposition activist concerns that their access will be restricted.

“The brevity of their stay did not allow them to appreciate the reality of the prevailing situation yesterday in Homs,” French Foreign ministry spokesman Bernard Valero said.

“The Arab League monitors must be able to return quickly to this martyred city and be able to move freely and have all necessary contact with the population.”

RUSSIA PRODS ASSAD TO OPEN UP

Russia, one of Assad’s few remaining allies and Syria’s primary weapons supplier, urged Damascus to let the observers move around the country freely.

“The mission should be able to visit any part of the country, any towns or villages, and come up with its own independent, objective opinion about what is happening and where,” Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.

Video reports, which cannot be independently verified, have shown parts of Homs looking like a war zone. Constant machinegun and sniper fire is audible and corpses are mangled by blasts.

Activists say about a third of the estimated 5,000 people killed in unrest in Syria since March died in Homs. Dozens have been killed in the past week alone and thousands arrested in the months before the 22-state Arab League was invited in.

International journalists are mostly barred from Syria, making it difficult to confirm accounts from conflict zones.

Activists in Homs said they showed monitors some buildings riddled with bullets and mortar rounds and pointed out what they said were tanks, but had only two hours with them on Monday.

The monitors represent the first international intervention on the ground in Syria since the revolt began. Protesters hope what they report will nudge the world into action against Assad.

Western powers have shown no desire to intervene militarily in a volatile region of Middle East conflict. The U.N. Security Council is split, with Russia and China against interference.

Assad says he is fighting an insurgency by armed terrorists who have killed 2,000 soldiers and police.

State television on Wednesday flashed news that Syria has freed 755 people detained in the unrest “whose hands were not stained with Syrian blood.” Releasing detainees is part of Assad’s pact with the Arab League to defuse the crisis.

TARA I thought you were closing any conversation with me quite a while ago…LOL.

OTW has placed me on moderation, I am not banned. No, they don’t think I’m an infiltrator, just a hyper-emotional guy, I myself admitted that I needed to calm down sometimes, but last night I just couldn’t control myself when I saw the pathetic performance of the AL observers and the heart-wrenching videos from Baba Amr on YouTube.

OTW has some biases, namely his pacific and socialist leanings, and is thus biased in favour of certain commenters like Zenobia, Husam, Sheila, etc. People just can;t get over their biases ( Joshua Landis and Camille Otrakji are some other fine examples).

Btw, do YOU still think I’m a mukhabarati ?

All pro regime you see on SC are as sectarian as you are but not only they do not admit it, but also sometimes do not have an insight into it. I just find it hard to acknowledge that I was raised in the same Syria these pro regime came from… I do not dislike you, I just do not know what to feel about you.

Zoo, I have lost interest reading Hurriyet Daily News.  I only like to read it when you are around.  It is jealousy that is motivating me.  All the smart pro-regime are vacationing.  It is pretty dull around here.  We are left with the propagandists and the obsessed.  They are boring me to death.  

http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/shariah-was-made-for-man.aspx?PageID=238&NID=10157&NewsCatID=411
Shariah was made for man

As Islamist parties emerge victorious from Arab ballots, some are having second thoughts about the Arab Spring. The widespread concern is that post-dictatorial Middle Eastern states will turn into illiberal democracies rather than liberal ones. And while the threat of illiberal democracy is valid for any late-democratizing country – just look at Mr. Vladimir Putin’s Russia – the Middle East bears an additional and unique risk: Islamic law, or the shariah, which might imply corporal punishments for criminals, degradation of women, and persecution of perceived impiety, blasphemy or apostasy.

In the face of this risk, a remedy is often hoped for in the power of pragmatism. For example, Egypt’s triumphant Freedom and Justice Party, an extension of the Muslim Brotherhood, will ruin the country’s tourism industry if it bans alcohol. Incumbent Islamists who will have to deliver to their people will face such challenges, the hope goes, and be forced to soften some of their rigid standards.

Besides pragmatism, however, there is another source that the more progressive Islamists such as Rached Ghannouchi, the leader of Tunisia’s Ennahda, seem willing to utilize for modernizing their future vision: simply a non-literalist approach to the shariah, which will focus on its “intents” rather than the medieval means that were used to serve those intents.

The basis for this non-literal approach goes back to Imam Shatibi, a scholar from 14th-century Muslim Spain. In his magnum opus, “Higher Objectives and Intents of Islamic Law,” Shatibi studied the whole shariah carefully, and concluded that all its decrees could be rendered as the protection of five fundamental values: life, religion, property, progeny and reason.

If these intents (maqasid) of Islamic law are taken as its ever-valid content, but the means of these intents are allowed to vary according to time and milieu, as some theologians suggest, then there opens ample ground for reform. Corporal punishments, for example, can be explained as resulting from historical necessity: In seventh-century Arabia, there were neither any correctional facilities nor any bureaucracy to run them. But now we live in a different world.

Or the seemingly misogynistic sayings of Prophet Muhammad, such as his advice that women should not travel alone, can be explained as reasonable precautions in his historical context: In seventh-century Arabia, an unprotected woman wandering in the desert would easily fall prey to brigands. In the modern world, however, both law enforcement and means of travel have improved immensely – and therefore the Saudi ban on women’s driving can be declared absurd.

These fundamentalists who disregard these nuances do not realize that their blind literalism could lead them to follow the letter of the law, but betray its intents. For example, the Quranic requirement to bring four witnesses to prove an accusation of adultery, whose explicit purpose is to protect women from libel, could turn into a protection for rapists in Pakistan. 

Western civilization is familiar with a version of this problem from its own canon: The frequent criticism that Jesus brings in the New Testament to the Pharisees, a conservative and literalist Jewish sect of that time, is very relevant. The Pharisees, Jesus noted, were obsessing about the minute details of religious law but leaving undone “the weightier matters of law” such as “justice, and mercy, and faith.” “The Sabbath was made for man,” Jesus also proclaimed, turning the Pharisee mindset upside down, “and not man for the Sabbath.”

The future of freedom in Islamic civilization partly lies in a similar insight – that the shariah was made for man, and not man for the shariah. Luckily, the sources that will help nurture that insight are more abundant in Islamic tradition than what is often thought.

Ghufran,

How about Assad and his tails?

As far as I am concerned, Assad and his tails have killed 20 times more Syrians than al-Qaida killed in New York, much more, 50,000 Syrians are unaccounted for!

Did you watch the North Korean dictator’s funeral?

Many on this blog and around the world will love to see Syrians reduced to puppets. Crying when ordered, and chanting long live Assad. Watching the funeral of Kim Jong-il is an occasion to remind ourselves of the true nature of dictatorship.

North Korean news agency stated that he died whilst heroically defending his people from monstrous attack!!! Also, they “attributed the heavy snow fall ahead of the funeral to the ‘heaven’s grief over Kim Jong-il’s death “The snow is falling like tears for a death of a great leader who came from heaven”

These people are damned hungry. Damned oppressed. Yet, you see men weeping and women on the verge of fainting.

Syria’s enemy are ecstatic.

Many on this blog and around the blog are no less evil than Netanyahu, who brags about Israel democracy, while audaciously questions Arabs ability to sustain democratic regimes, he, like the infamous dictators and their trumpets around the world are painting the noble protesters around the Arab world as Islamic, anti-Western, anti-liberal, anti-Israeli and anti-democratic.

So how do you and your likes differ from Netanyahu and Arab dictators?

The Arabs’ touch turns Syria to lead
December 29, 2011 02:17 AM
By Michael Young
The Daily Star
Is it remotely reassuring that the Arab League is dealing with the crisis in Syria? For a partial answer, note that the Arab observer mission in the country is headed by a Sudanese general who participated in his government’s brutal campaign in Darfur. He described his first day on the highways as “very good,” only hours after Syria’s security forces perpetrated their latest outrage in Homs.

Recall that until two months ago, the Arab states allowed the massacre to continue. There was a lack of unity over Syria, but also a hope in several capitals that the criminal enterprise that is President Bashar Assad’s regime would prevail, denying a fresh victory to those striving to change their leaders in other parts of the Arab world.

Score the latest round to Damascus. In November the tide was in the other direction. Arab sanctions had been agreed, including a cutoff of transactions with Syria’s central bank and a suspension of Syrian membership in the Arab League. Assad initially delayed accepting a five-point Arab plan, which includes withdrawing the army and security forces from Syrian cities, releasing prisoners, and deploying observers to determine if the plan is being implemented. He backed down when the Arab states threatened to go to the United Nations Security Council, buying Damascus valuable time to undercut the Arab plan.

We know what will happen next. The Syrians will turn every issue into an object of exasperating negotiation, assuming the observers do their job right, which is improbable. Nor are there enough observers to make a difference. Even if the mission rises to 200-300 monitors, that remains far too low. There have been disturbances in dozens of large urban areas throughout Syria, not to mention in suburban and rural districts. That means major agglomerations will host only a handful of observers at best. The regime will run rings around them, a reality facilitated by the cynical Arab decision to allow the monitors to be transported by the very security services they are supposed to be monitoring.

Then there is the prisoner release dimension of the Arab plan. In Lebanon we well remember how difficult it was to determine the number of Lebanese in Syrian prisons, because Damascus invariably lied about the figures. The Assad regime will greatly downplay the numbers of Syrians it has incarcerated, and the observers will almost certainly not get a mandate, or display the will, to independently verify this. The regime will release prisoners here and there, in full view of the observers, and arrest new waves of victims elsewhere.

If the Assad regime is lucky, it will be able to stretch the process out long enough for Arab states to push for a start of negotiations with the opposition, another facet of the Arab plan. Why would this be to the regime’s benefit? Because if it can pursue its repression in the interim period unchallenged, agreeing to negotiations would allow it to kick off a long, fruitless phase of talks permitting it to claim it is sincere about the Arab project, even as this opens up cracks in the opposition.

But which opposition? That, too, will provoke extensive maneuvering, as the Assads will look to pick their interlocutors, and as different segments of the opposition disagree over whether to negotiate or not. The Syrian National Council will doubtless refuse to sit with the regime, which may carry political costs, as this could be portrayed by Bashar Assad as an effort to undermine the Arab plan. Here, the president and his acolytes may widen the breach in Arab ranks.

The problem is that Arab incompetence, even if it strengthens the hand of the Syrian leadership in relative terms, will make much more likely further militarization of the intifada. There is no going back in Syria, certainly not to the squalid kleptocracy that a smug Bashar Assad thought was unshakeable last January, when he boasted of his regime’s popularity to The Wall Street Journal. Either the Arab plan eases Assad out of power, or we are heading toward a struggle even more vicious than what we are witnessing today. National interest dictates that regional states, above all Turkey and Iraq, will seek to shape what is taking place on the ground and ensure that they don’t lose out when the carnage ends. If that happens, the Security Council will become the only available venue to address Syria, since we will then have a textbook threat to international peace and security.

Much will depend on how the Arab states interpret their mandate. The Arab League’s secretary general, Nabil Elarabi, has noted that the organization will issue an early assessment of whether the Syrian regime is cooperating with its plan. If that denies Syria the means to deceive its Arab brethren, fine. But rebuilding an Arab consensus against Assad rule will be difficult, and going the next step up to the Security Council is something many Arab regimes want to avert.

Qatar has taken the lead on Syria, but may find itself isolated. The Egyptian military council, which is trying to consolidate its authority, opposes the trend of transformation in the Arab world. No less so Saudi Arabia, which has had little sympathy for the upheavals all around, and would relish a Qatari reversal. Iraq has sided with Assad, while other countries, among them Turkey, may fear too sudden a Syrian collapse to firmly sponsor internationalization of the crisis.

Syrians are right to regard Arab intervention as bad news. And Assad was right to presume that a break in the Arab momentum against his regime could become a turning point in his political survival. He gains from the militarization of the intifada. In an armed conflict, Assad believes, the winner imposes his own legitimacy. Many Arab leaders, whose own legitimacy rests on intimidation, may alas agree.

“50,000 Syrians are unaccounted for!”
Is that an exaggeration or you actually have the name list of those 50,000, if you have it please link it.
For information only, the Lebanese civil war lasted for 15 years with roughly 17,000 missing. How is it possible that in 10 months the missing become 50,000?
Did you count the refugees in Turkey along the defected soldiers and the non-‘soldiers’ who joined the FSA and the victims of the various militias that kidnap, kill and cut in pieces any Syrian they can get in that number of 50,000 or you simply put them all together and called them missing?
Just wondering!

Dear #412. Ghufran,
I completely agree with you. I firmly believe that life is not black or white, rather many hues of gray. I also think that your fear of the dissolution of Syria is very real and shared by many including me. It is not going to be any better after this regime is gone. I do not know of any revolution that ended up better than what was there before it started. It takes time to move a country like Syria that has been moving backwards for years into the opposite direction of progress.
I have a close friend who told me once: I hate this regime. I know it is terrible. I know it is pulling the country backwards. I know it will never reform, but my life is stable, why does change have to be now in my life time? Couldn’t it have waited?
I can feel her pain. People in Syria of certain economic classes are watching their lives disintegrate: their net worth is on a downward spiral, their children’s education interrupted, their businesses suffering and they are blaming the demonstrators for disrupting their lives. Maybe if we lived there, we would have felt the same way, but being out can help us see the big picture and it is not pretty.
We are at the point of no return. The country is already in turmoil. Are we going to keep trading freedom for stability? Taking into consideration what is happening in the country, what do you see as a solution to this crisis?

In another video, orange-vested monitors rushed behind a concrete building amid heavy shooting and blasts…yet the Sudanese general al Dabi claimed he saw ” nothing frightening”.  He needs to be held accountable by the AL for his comment.  How can the monitors run for cover amid heavy shooting yet declare “nothing frightening”? Unless some are biased already?

May be Joshua was right after all when he questioned whether Syria can have a soft landing but I still think we should do everything we can to preserve the state critical functions and prevent chaos. One thing that is really needed is coming up with an inclusive government where no section of the Syrian society is left out of the political process.

420. Dear Tara,
Thank you very much for the link.

The videos clearly show that the Jr has given directive to suspend all VISIBLE, military incursions ONLY in areas and at times of visits by ALC.

His forces are clearly under orders to continue shooting and sniping from concealed positions, 24/7 at any moving soul on the streets, including at Agents Orange.

The ALC shall make the following observations:
– Assad forces units, as per uniform and ID’s were anti-riot police. They were in stand by mode. Their personnel and tanks are not engaged in hostile activities.
– Unidentified Gunmen were firing from concealed sites, indicating the presence of undisciplined armed groups.
– Civilians were under threat from armed groups and killed civilians were seen in those areas.
– Destruction in Homs neighbourhoods resulted from medium cliber gun fire/explosives

Interpretations shall be made by Mr AlDabi. They will be consciously sweetened for the regime’s advantage as a pay back for Regime’s overdue favours in supporting Sudan in their Stand-off with the UN on Darfour crimes.

FM Al Mu3allem, will show his satisfaction with AL conclusions.
He shall use AlDabi observations to vindicate his regime claims about the revolution’s militancy and the justification for his continued crackdown.

It depends on what kind of people. Do you think that you are able to fool the world? The people who are asking for freedom are:
1. A terrorist student who shot his friends and two were killed
2. Bunch of Islamist radical retarded terrorists like Bin Laden who shot to death 8 family members in Hama (alshiek) just because they are open minded and wants dialogue.
3. Radical islamists who thought they will meet their profit to have soup with and perhaps dinner after they die. They exploded tow cars and killed more than 40 Syrians
4. People who are hiding in buildings and randomly shooting cars and innocent travelers

What you are supporting is a bunch of terrorists, you are supporting murderers. You and your asshole Galion are bunch of cowards living abroad and trying to reach your evil political goals on behalf of the Syrian blood.

Tara #421 your concerns about Dumbthug Dabi are right, but why hold HIM accountable for the shabby fiasco that’s unfolding in Syria with the Arab League?

It’s the decaying leadership and secretariat of the AL that have betrayed and shamed the Arab world by appointing a Sudanese war criminal to lead the observers.

Sudan has only a marginal (if that) link with the AL and a putrid international reputation for its recent genocidal treatment of its citizens in Dafur and the South. Also, let’s admit the geriatric clique running the AL would have a deep contempt for black Africans and wouldn’t include them in anything they think important.

The sight of desperate Syrians having no choice but to beg for help and attention from a corrupt, cruel black African “General” and his pals is sickening and defies belief.

Many in the Arab world feel their countries don’t get proper respect from the west and that it doesn’t care.

How about the AL showing respect and care for Arabs?

well one could compare those events in Germany back in 1849 with today, you had no existing democracy a country divided by regional kingdoms some more some less oppressing the people. Germany at that stage was still in the Absolutism era, unlike France and England, we still did not have any legislation and represantation of the people.

But one has to be careful when comparing, i do believe that some comparisons are like apple and pears. F.e the communism and the regime of Ceaucescu in Romania with his Securitate security forces were terrible. People were really starving in Romania in the 80s while our regime in Berlin could not supply us with bananas and organges. So that the people killed the tyrann in Romania came to nobodys surprise. Regimes differ tremendously even though similar events have also similar roots and backgrounds.

I do believe that given today no society which has not seen democracy or experienced it must forcefully fail to achieve real freedom and democracy. Today we are more educated and the examples for good governance are visible for everyone.

There has been an ugly attack on a german politician who is a member of the SNC. Ferhad Ahma was attacked in his apartment in Berlin by two man. He and a women got beaten with wooden sticks. He did not get severly beaten, but was later summoned to a hospital for a check up. The german police is investigating now. Ahma is sure that he was targeted by the syrian muhabarat or supportes of the regime here in Berlin. “They knew my address, that was no spontanous act” he stated in an interview with TAZ newspaper.

Guido Westerwelle ,foreign minister has “invited” Radwan Loutfi the syrian ambassador to Germany for a consultation. Afterwards a spokesperson of the government stated that:”any kind of intimidation against syrian opposition members is not acceptable. If it turns out, that diplomats accredited in Germany were involved in the use of violence, this will quickly lead to reactions, such as the declaration of persona non grata.”

Also if u reject Caliphate of Abu Bakr, Omar and Othman, you are a a REBEL against the Prophet and thus a non-believer.

given the nature of this regime when it comes to the media, don’t you think this silence of the syrian media outlets only days after 40 people got killed by two “suicide attacks” is normal? For the first time in syrian modern history “suicide bombers” killed in Damascus, right in the heart of the government. Mouallims ministery is not far away, dont they all live in fears now that syrian al quaida ( if they exist) was capable to operate inmidst the capital.Since three days no more pictures of the site, no interviews of the victims, just business as usal, the founding of an bronze age grave seems more of importance to the regime than this gruesome attack on the syrian soil.

I think a deal has been cooked between A.L and Besho as well as Turkey, basically none of them want to impose sanctions, so this A.L visit is just a whitewash to justify lifting the sanctions.

Only FSA is our hope, there is a rate of 20 defections per day, only the FSA can and will overthrow the regime, in old-gashioned style, the same way Fidel Castro overthrew Battista. Within the next year the Assad Army will be reduced by at lest 15,000 troops, who will join the FSA.

One thing is certain, if Assad tries anyhting funny, like launchign Scud attacks or Grad rockets or chemical weapons or Heavy artillery at Homs or Idlib or Deraa, there will be a No-Fly-Zone.

Basically the A.L. and Turkey support us, but they do not want to lose their business in Syria and their whore-houses in Lebanon.

But Libyan rebels and Iraqi Baathists will be a major source of weapons supply for the FSA in the coming days.

However there is a silver lining to the AL visiit, namely the regime cannot indiscriminately attack and slaughter the people, the regime is forced to hault Army operations and use Police, this gives people a chance to regroup and recollect their lives, get hold of essential supplies and also gives FSA much-needed breathing space and chance to regroup and plan new strikes. At least as long as there are AL observers in Homs, there won;t be any Tank attacks on Baba Amr and Kahldiye, the people will get some respite.

Let me elaborate. For the last 20 years, the regime has been very successful in selling the “exotic Shaami culture” to the Arabs. Since 1990, the regime has been successful in carving out a place in the hearts of the Arab public, by its vulgar peddling of wine and women to rich Gulf Arabs. And to non-Gulf Arabs, i.e ppl from Egypt, North Africa, etc. the regime has been successful in selling its image as “beating heart of Arab resistance”.

The regime is all about IMAGE, the only reason Bashar does not get isolated like Saddam or Gaddafi is because he appears as a charming, suave, urbane, normal guy, he has been careful not to appear as a psychopath weirdo like other dictators ( Saddam, Gaddafi, Kim Yong Il, Tukrmenbashi, etc), to the point that to someone who meets him for the first time, its almost impossible to see the blood on his hands.

Also the regime has always been careful in keeping the bloodthirsty butchers like Maher, Rifaat, Ali Aslan, in the background.

There is no terrorism except for state-sponsored terrorism. The “regime(s)” in Syria is afraid since six months now and Buthayna Shaaban said to Fisk she could not travel to Homs on her mother’s grave out of fear. Same for the rest of the people who are known to be close to the Baath. Not to say that the different security apparatuses are not chasing and intimidating people, but nothing new here and many should be cleaning their own doorsteps (Turkey, KSA, Qatar, Bahrein, etc).
Again, Syria has been used to distract people from what was going on in KSA territories: Yemen and Bahrein. And Syria is punished for its support to Iran, HA and Hamas.

I would say the worst in your list would be Romania,Albania, Bulgaria, Poland, GDR, Czechoslovakia,Bulgaria and Yugoslavia.

Repression has many sides, see in my country they could make your live a living hell, no work, no university no money. If you belong to the church and are active in it fe. you could face all three of the above. If you decided not to go to the army you ended up in prison for 2 years,if you made a joke about the party or its members. Torture was always present, and interrogation techniques were really fancy. But compared to Romania and Albania you could really face death for little things, the food supplies were scarce at the end of the 80s in Romania, it was a word of that time in my country the people always said, think of Romania, we are much better off here.
Titos Jugoslavia was quite unique, they had a good economy8 probably the ebst of all), and the regime was more mild than others. A friend of mine from Sarajevo was an exchange student in NYC in 1982, such a thing was unthinkable in all the other communist regimes.

I dont think people really wanted Honecker to die, but imprisonment was seen as adequate, and he got it though his illness prevented him a death in prison. His wife nonevertheless gets until now retirement from our government to her exile in Santiago de Chile. She was not just the first lady,she was education minister and she was the one who decided if children got seperated from their parents if the parents were against the government or tried to flee the country and were cought doing so.

I dont think that the Syrian embassy here at Rauchstrasse has any german at all working for them, i think germans are too expensive for them. Whenever i was there there were just Syrians working. But its an open secret that syrian muhabarat is working from there as well, any military attache post in any embassy is highly to be working for an secret agency, at least part time. Some of the Stasi geniuses are hired and work now for western secret services.

NATO suspends military plans to wage all-out economic war against Syria
by Thierry Meyssan
Having applied, until now, the humanitarian military intervention model already tested in Yugoslavia and more recently in Libya, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is forced to rewrite its script for Syria. It will now adopt the same strategy that was used in Iraq: To besiege the country, in defiance of the population, and weaken it sufficiently for the next assault.

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the Saban Forum in Washington, 3 December 2011.
NATO is currently reviewing its strategy for Syria. After eight months of low intensity war and despite the infiltration of many Arab and Pashtun fighters, Syrian society has not fractured. To be sure, some religious clashes took place in Deraa, Homs and Banias, but they were not widespread and were short lived. For the Alliance, it is no longer realistic to think that it can rapidly foment a civil war to justify an “international humanitarian operation.”

This realization comes at a time when the ad hoc military coalition is in the throes of a crisis. During the war against Libya, the initiative had been spearheaded by France and the UK. However, the two European heavyweights proved they were incapable of mobilizing the necessary resources. In fact, three quarters of the war effort was provided or funded by the Pentagon. Above all, the deployment of inadequate devices could have wrought disaster had Libya decided to attack NATO’s ships and helicopters [1]. The problem is much worse in the case of Syria, which boasts a population four times larger than that of Libya, and an army seasoned by previous regional conflicts.

It was therefore decided to strengthen the Franco-British duo by bringing in Germany. A tripartite agreement was to be negotiated on December 2 to mark, albeit belatedly, the anniversary of the Lancaster House Treaty [2] which laid down the organizational framework for the joint British and French expeditionary forces and sealed the fate of Libya [3]. However, the event was canceled. In the middle of the Western economic crisis, Berlin is loath to underwrite war expenses without a guaranteed return on its investment.

Germany’s budgetary rationality has shattered the epic dreams of the US-Israeli military-industrial complex. The departure of Robert Gates and the rise of Hillary Clinton have signaled the revival of the project for the “remodeling of the Greater Middle East” and its extension to North Africa. However, this doctrine – which stems from the imperial ideology of Leo Strauss – reeks of a perpetual headlong rush, the war having no other aim than itself. It may be ideal for the war economy of the United States, but it hardly suits Germany’s peace-based economy.

The plan of a conventional war against Syria raises many economic issues. No European nation would have anything to gain either in the short or medium term, while many are likely to lose a few feathers. In the case of Libya, whereas British and French businessmen were swift to cash in on their dividends by renegotiating the oil concessions to their advantage, the Turks and the Italians were left holding the bag, losing nearly all their markets in the former colony.

Pending the creation of an ad hoc military coalition, NATO has temporarily turned to the economic war scenario. It intends to besiege Syria by cutting it off from all import-export trade, and sabotaging its means of production. Behind the moralistic label of “sanctions,” the Alliance member states and their Arab League vassals have already imposed a bank freeze that prohibits commodity trading. They are currently concentrating on shutting down lines of communication, including airlines, and the pull out of multinational companies, mainly oil companies. Thus, following in the footsteps of Shell and Total, Petro-Canada is on its way out, closing behind it the plant that supplies electricity to the city of Homs.

In particular, the first major act of sabotage was perpetrated against the pipeline supplying the same power plant, to make sure it could not operate once the Canadian engineers had gone. This terrorist act was claimed by the Syrian Free Army, although it is not possible to verify who was really behind it: military felons, Al Qaeda mercenaries or NATO commandos.

With the exception of fuel and electricity, no shortage has so far been reported in Syria. To mitigate the impact of the siege, Damascus is busy establishing new exchanges with Beijing. Because of the bank embargo, they have to be conducted on a barter basis, as China is already doing with Iran. This system should allow Syria to save its economy, apart from the tourist industry which has already been severely affected over the long term.

At any rate, the siege of Syria has already claimed many economic victims in Turkey, whose cancellation of the free trade agreement with Syria and the introduction of prohibitive tariffs have devastated the border regions. And although the Syrians are prepared to endure deprivations to save their country, the Turks are not willing to suffer the same fate on behalf of NATO’s ambitions.

In addition, this strategic reorientation has placed the Syrian National Council in an awkward position. Those political figures who endorsed a form of nonviolent action inspired by Gene Sharp’s orange revolutions [4] are now forced to subscribe to acts which have been claimed by members of the Syrian Free Army. The conflict is all the more acute considering that both groups are based in Istanbul and expected to work side by side.

The suspension of the international military intervention plan was confirmed by the return to Damascus of the US, French and German Ambassadors. It imposes a change in the media campaign. Already, the Anglo-American media have dropped references to the most outrageous and less credible accusations leveled against Bashar al-Assad, such as the allegation concerning the torture of children. The State Department itself no longer describes the Syrian President as a monster, but as a man “out of touch with reality” (sic) ” [5]. His case, therefore, no longer requires an urgent treatment. Moreover, the revelations made by several journalists about the situation in Syrian, belying the image conveyed by Western propaganda for the past eight months [6], calls for an indispensable lull.

TARA,

Precisely !!! It is because of these pro-regime anti-Sunni fanatics that I have become sectarian. I fight sectariansim with sectarianism.

Now the SNC should throw out the line that when it comes to power, it will alow the Iraqi Baath Party and the Iraqi Sunni Resistance to have a safe haven in Syria so that they can attack Iraqi securty forces and overthrow the puppet Maliki regime, that would serve them right for working against the Syrian Uprising, those bloody majousiye.

Long live Sunni Arab Solidarity.

Thx for you reply. I agree with you. The sight of desperate Syrians begging for help from the Sudanese war crime general is painful. This was his second of fame and he looks quite pathetic. Among all Arabs, the “reputable” Sudanese general is heading the delegate! Wasn’t Sudan that killed Christians in Darfur? Where are the pathetic islamophobes on SC crying foul? I am more and more convinced that the FSA is our only hope. Unfortunately, legitimacy belongs to the powerful.

here is an interview with the journalist who was able to report from Homs for german tv.

here is the link of the cnn interview

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=6CvG_EU-D2g#!

Khalid, they said that the dead were hijacked people and who got tortured and killed by security forces and then laid as a warning to others on the ground.

The talk of the soldier behind the machine gun:
We arr guarding the area here. We are constantly targeted by snipers from other buildings in the neighborhood.Like this one over there.(he points out the direction)

I find the interview with Abdelrazaq Tlass quite stunning, I heard that a relative of the brutal Tlass general has joined the opposition, but this was the first time i saw him organizing the revolt against the regime.

Two other things really are scary to see, they show an emergency hospital in an apartment, where they treat an coma patient with no proper equipment, they do so because if they send him in an hospital he might get detained or worst will hapen to him.

The other scene was a man cutting wood from the trees, they said in the report that no more mazoot for heating is available so the people in Bab Amr are taking down the trees.

What was remarkable was at the end the reporter said: We dont know what will come after Assad, but being here for 5 days secretly in Homs we are sure that this revolution can not be defeated anymore.

here is the original now 14 min long report which was aired last night in german tv

So the strategy of the opposition now is to discredit any investigation that doesn’t validate their cries of “peaceful revolution” and condemn the regime. They are now attacking the AL mission, which they lobbied hard for, because it is not saying what they want to hear. Even the head of the mission is now being targeted for reporting what he’s seeing. I can just imagine how they will react to a free election that doesn’t give them control of the country. This may all turn out to be a waste of time; nothing will please those guys, short of complete destruction of the country.

Both of Jurgen’s links are very much worth to watch, the CNN and the original ARD report, they have lots of information about the armed militias, how they work and how they attack the Syrian army, they even use the Syrian flag on their checkpoint not the independence flag, that must be for a reason, maybe to fool the AL observers to think that those armed militia men are the Syrian army (some one told use the other day that the Syrian army checkpoints are doing this trick of using the independence flag to fool the observers, it seems that the story is the other way around, no worries, it’s so trendy to spread outlandish stories these days)
What strike me the most is the way the presenter telling the story (if you speak German, you would understand my point) he is portraying the story as if the Syrian government is the armed militia and the armed militia are innocent from any killing, even when they are shooting, he tried to justify their actions, never the less the report is very professional, what it misses in my opinion to make this report even better is telling the story of other neighborhood that are affected by the militia attacks so it wont be as on sided as it is right now.
I also noticed that throughout all the report, except the beginning in his way to get to Homs, we see no Syrian army at all, only one guy pointing toward somewhere that the camera don’t even show, my question is, aren’t those armed militia allover that neighborhood, how can we know that those snipers on the roof they are talking about are not the armed militia themselves who are targeting other neighborhood?
One more thing, this time unlike the Skynews report, there are no shooting during the filming time against any civilian.
They showed the funeral of a 19 years old man they say he was killed while crossing the street, not in a demonstration, and when they asked who killed him, they claim it was the army, why the army killed him if he have no threat to them? For fun? Nobody can explain that.
The other sad story is the mother who was shot while opening her door, again not in a demonstration, who shot her and why? we don’t know. the only answer for every killing is one, the Army.
The two bodies on the street we don’t even know for sure who killed them, he just said what they told him it was, as usual, the army.
I think the victims in the hospital are most likely members of the armed militia.
One worth mentioning point is that there were lots of kids and fewer adults during the whole report and in the festive demonstration Sarot made especially for the filming, which is truly sad to see so many kids have been put in the front line of danger like that.

I am a Lebanese Alowhet with relatives in Syria and they have expressed to me that they have been threatened to be killed by the secret service if they don’t show their loyalty to the Asad’s including picture in their home and on their face book. The Assad’s and their benefactors are the suppressors of every fresh breath, of any scrap of human rights that come in touch with the Syrian or the Lebanese. Whether they are Alowhe, Sunni, Durzi, Christians alike they are willing to kidnap, and murder in order to push down any opposition to their control. Now they seem to be using their last weapon and that is the propaganda that if the Alowhet loses power in Syria the majority Sunni will kill Allowhet and other minority groups indiscriminately. I believe that we can reduce the effectiveness of their propaganda by promoting tolerance and by identifying that our suppressors are those who hate for us to be more able.

Fresh gas pipeline blast in central Syria – 2012-01-03

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/world/2012-01/03/c_131340536.htm

DAMASCUS, Jan. 3 (Xinhua) — An armed “terrorist” group on Tuesday targeted a gas pipeline near al-Rastan town in central Syria that feeds two power stations, the official SANA news agency reported.

At least five pipelines have been targeted since the eruption of unrest in Syria in mid March. Syria held what it called ” saboteurs” responsible for the attacks.

In July, fire damaged a natural gas pipeline in Deir el-Zour and Another oil pipeline was blasted in Talkhalakh area in Homs.

On Dec. 13, Some gunmen blew up a gas pipeline in Homs, causing minor damages. A week earlier, another oil pipeline in Homs was targeted.

On Dec. 27, a gas pipeline was targeted by an explosive device planted by “terrorist groups” north of al-Ashrafiya village.

No injuries were reported in the three attacks that occurred in December.
