Assad on Houla: ‘Not even monsters would carry out such an ugly crime’

June 03, 2012 12:30

Syria’s president announced his country is facing a “real war” and blamed terrorists and outside forces for the violence. The defiant speech comes a day after the UN special envoy warned that the specter of all-out civil war grows daily in Syria.

Assad did this and now the he is crying his crocodile tears. The free world sees you and knows what fate awaits tyrants in the end. The power that was taken from the people will return to the people an he will meet the same end as Saddam, Gaddafi, Mubarak and Bin Laden.

We cheer for arab spring because we see it as an intifada against fear and oppression.  We do not believe that God intended for any person to live in fear.  We hesitate we are unsure what comes after Assad.  Between these two poles we sit on the fence.  Russia is run by a man who would make himself king.  They will never become powerful under his ambitions because they will maike enemies faster than friends.  Nonetheless, because we are perched on a fence the little man's objections are enough to keep us silent.  For now.

There are some common westerners who think this is good stuff because it is furthering western control, what they don't realize is that once these rulers have control they will use these same tactics on them. The monsters who are doing this have no loyalty to any country, they see the world and every person on it as theirs to control.
They will think nothing of importing their hired murderers to slaughter people in America or anywhere else when the time has come for them to bow to their rule.
This has nothing to do with me.

Monsters wouldnt but zionists would.... look at Gaza, look at Palestine...their beta testing ground, and the world looked the other way. Now they are an infestationin every nation, the criminal zionist global cabal network enemy of ALL nations.
The Port of Gaza, the only Mediterranean port closed for shipping and trade in order to place in a complete stranglehold on Gaza,segregating Palestinians from the rest of the world, along with their right of trade with other nations. There is shame upon every nation right now, that this Zionist regime abomination that operates fraudulently with counterfeit claims to Palestine and birthed through decades of scheming continues crimes against ALL humanity. Every nation must come together and break its back. Open Gaza for trade, Palestine’s right under international law, and ALL nations right to trade with them.

Wow, u r so clever, their name is "Takfiri" not "Tafkiri", I'll make u happy and admit that I belong to al-Qaeda getting paid from Obama and Sarkozi 100 USD for each comment, hahahaah anyway u have astonishing mind more than Assad himself who said that hundreds of thousands Syrians are protesting risking their lives only for 10 dollars.

If this George Taweel is truly Syrian, then I am father Christmas! Syria was a peaceful country before the US/Arab Gulf ste tyranies and Turkey started infiltrating terrorists from its borders. Most of the terror squuads are foreign mercinaries. This guy here is simply one of the many cyber mercinary at the service and on the payroll of the US global dominance agenda. As for Assadf's support, have seen demonstrations in favour of Assad and those against mainly in Turkey not Syria. The thousands of pro-Assad rallies completey throw into significance the tens of so called anti-Assad demonstartions. Suffice the affluence to the referendum which in the face of threats of death and bombings from the US/Arab Gulf state tyrannies hit squads against all those who too part, nione-the-less saw almost 60% of people throughout Syria voting (compare this to the average of 10% who vote in US engineered Afghan elections after US invasion and occupation). The massacres are yes, being carried out but not by the Shabiha (NOT Shabihas: Only English speakers make this mistakle), but by Tafkiri, an extremist minority Sunni sect predominant in the US allied tyrannies of Qatar and Saudi Arabia, of which Osama Bin KLaden was a member. So yo9u will not fool anyone by trying to pretend you are Syrian because you are not, and thre afct that you leant a new word from Fox or CNN or wehatever does not make facts different from what they are.

Dear friend, you must be kidding! I'm the only one? So, have u heard of George Sabra, Michael Kilo,Bashar and Hadeel Koki, Basel Shehada, Father Paolo, Yara Shammas, George Yazji and many others. You share the same vision as many of my friends which I consider totally wrong, this's our land and we are here for 2000 years (I don't think Assad was ruling all that time) and nobody can take us away from it, so why should relate our presence to his dictatorship which will vanish someday, personally I prefer to be oppressed not oppressor, I don't fear from democracy as the majority of Syrians are tolerated and I know that some Christians we re presidents and prime ministers when Syria was democratic not in Assad's time.

George,m y friend, are you really christian?? I am christian, as my family and my wife's family are who reside in Syria, who we speak with regularly to make sure they are safe.  I will be honest and say that Assad is not an angel but neither are any country leaders.  If you stand against your country's leader (let's use the U.S.A as an example because they practice freedom of speech, yeah right), do you NOT think the government will be at your doorstep in a heart beat, seriously? You my friend are not christian because if you were, you would be shi#@ing bricks right now because if Assad falls and a Sunni government takes control, say goodbye to christian and alawite civilisation.  You must be the only Syrian christian that is against Assad.  He is the reason why the christians are free to practice their religion peacefully within Syria (not having to cover up for example as other arab countries impose on their citizens).  God protect all innocent citizens of Syria.

So yo9u will not fool anyone by trying to pretend you are Syrian because you are not, and thre afct that you leant a new word from Fox or CNN or wehatever does not make facts different from what they are. And facts are taht those targetted where all Alawite (the same mionority ethnic group of Assad) and Shia and that only these were targeted. So the culprits are those on the opposite side, namely the Western and Arab Gulf State and turkey'sterror squads. Finally, I have seen videos of demonstrators in Houla being shot at yes. The heading said; "Peceful demonstrators in Houla shot at by Assad forces." But the demonstrators were changing pro-Adssad slogans and where holding the official Syrian repubblic flag coloured Red, White and Black with two green stars representing the two Assad presidents, not the that of Syria's US puppet regime with three stars and Green, white and Black. So, whatever you say is nonsense. Idf you are genuine you should open your miind and use logic. But I am afraid you already know trhe truth, but you are being paid to say otherwise.

I speak in name of Syrian as I'm the only one here. Yes, u can find supporter to Assad but they are not so many on the ground and becoming less and less day after day as well as silent people who are becoming against Assad. If u don't want to see recorded videos of demonstration being shot by Assad's gangs, and u just wanna listen to people in favor of what u like, so u don't have sound logical thinking, u remind me of one of my family who keeps watching media in favor of Assad, I invited him to visit my office at the university to see with his eyes what's going on, and when he saw security men shooting at students, he said they must be the terrorists wearing security men's uniform occupying the campus, and when I said OK, so where are the real ones, why don't they come and protect students, and why terrorists are killing students opposing Assad, he said maybe they are busy fighting in other areas and terrorists are trying to convince students that Assad is killer......hahaha.. . some people lie to themselves and prefer to be blind in order to not accept the reality which is not in favor of their interest.   I don't wish an international military intervention, I don't want western puppe t regime or Russian puppet as the current one.I think the only solution is continuous protesting everyday. 
westp reuße (unregistered) wrote in #5Why do you use plural when you talk about your supposed observations? Not everybody makes the same observations like you. I've read some self-proclaimed Syrian's comments who were in favour of president Assad and blamed foreign elements for the terrorism in Syria.
Since you bring up youtube. Search "syrian girl" on youtube. Two specific questions I'd like you to answer: Do you wish for foreign intervention by the "international society", as you call it? Are you afraid that this will result in a western puppet regime?
