Man this thing is like Iraq 2 dejavue. The USA press and the zionist pigs are saying that Syria is using chemical weapons. You know the whole reason we went to war with Iraq but o yeh there were no such weapons then and that was not the real reason we went to war was it..I hope the other world powers put a stop to this BS and that Syria can recover as a country. Now that Hezaballah is moving to Syria i will bet that Isreal willl attack Lebanan again. This xxxx needs to be stopped!

Syria is a turning into a nice little bloodbath for those Islamist goons and if you ask me the FSA are slowly losing the war.

If Assad falls this weakens Russia/Iran and the Islamists will likely expand the war into Iraq/Lebanon. However if Assad manages to hold out then it will weaken the Islamists. Hence the West is going to keep on pouring fuel on the fire in order to keep the show on the road. However it's the Joos, Turks and Arabs in the south are really behind this mess and who knows maybe further annexations of Syrian lands by the Kurds and Joos are on the cards.

So what have you done - "you" as in Armenians in general, and "you" as you in particular?

All you seem to do here nowadays is go on and on about your current bugbear, "imperialism" (whatever that is).

As for Armenians in general, they have done nothing. Lots of bombastic marching and mouthing off over an almost 100-year old genocide of Armenians, but not a whisper about the ongoing genocide in Syria, or the one that happened in Iraq. And you were all cheering in support of NATO's invasion of Serbia, the event that started America on the road to being the world's main terrorist state.

Armenia is only a small nation and what exactly would you have the Armenians do about Syria?

I cannot speak for all armenians. I do what i can and yes i do wish other armenians did more to and some do. I never cheered the invasion and bombings of Serbia-that whole war was a discusting violation of sovriegnty and human rites on both sides. I wish the armenians of syria would side with the government and be more active but i am not them and they have many things to worry about - things that we may not be aware of. If you generalize like you do here you will hurt your own arguments regardless of the subject.

Bashar Al-Assad is actually a reformer who has done much to further the causes of democracy and freedom. however his reforms were never talked about in the media whether the Arabic or the Western one

The foreign backed “revolutionaries” would attack a neighborhood, police station, or army base, from across the borders of Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey, and Iraq. Then they would claim that the city was in rebellion.

But the Syrians, seeing the same lies in all the western and Arab news stations, and the exiled rotten officials adopting the ‘revolution’, mostly took an anti-revolution stance. That is why whenever the rebels would infest a town or city you would immediately hear of a massacre to punish the residents for not supporting them. Of course the mainstream media would claim that it was Assad forces punishing the town that dared to oppose him!

Assad took advantage of the revolution to introduce his packages of reforms, putting aside those in the old guards who opposed them. Many of the old guard then joined the opposition abroad. the opposition demanded the removal of article 8 from the Syrian constitution making the Baath Party head of the government. Instead of just deleting it Bashar Assad had the constitution re-written by a specialized committee of Syrian experts from all parties in Syria and with input from all Syrians.

A referendum was held and the new constitution was approved with almost 90% of a voter turnout of 60%. Assad then enacted a Media Law that would allow more freedom of expression and the establishment of new independent media outlets. Assad eased requirements on the formation of political parties, excluding sectarian based parties. We now have at least nine new political parties. Municipal elections were held in December 2011. Many of those who won seats were assassinated or threatened throughout the country by the same revolutionaries who claimed to want democracy. Parliamentary elections were held in May 2012 with no eligibility restraints on the candidates.

Many new members of parliament have also been assassinated by the FSA including the wife and three daughters of parliament elect trustee Abdulla Mishleb in the infamous Houla massacre which is another lie about the Syrian regime.

it is true when I or anyone else say that the massacres against the Syrian Civilians is committed by the FSA and the blame would later be put on the Syrian Arab Army with the cover of the Arab media.
the media was and is a main factor in whats going on in Syria, many fake reports were used at the beginning to inspire people to go out to streets, example: you would see a huge crowd protesting in streets and claimed to have been taking place in Syria while you can see Tunisian flag on a top of a building in the same video. Al Jazeera has many times showed Syrian people holding protest signs with anti-bashar slogans and an x marked photos for Bashar but it was in fact an edited photos of pro-Assad Syrians take a look at the following photo to see what I am talking about:



notice the protest signs in the photo on the left which was used by Al Jazeera has the same font while the real one.... well just look at it and see for yourself

another example they would also show an actual huge crowd of Syrian people in streets but would mute the sound claiming this is anti-assad protesters and one could find the same video with the audio in which you can hear this huge crowd shouting "Allah, Soryia, Bashar w bas" which is a slogan for an infinitive support of Bashar putting his name next to the name of God and the name of the Country.

what happens in Syria is pure western agenda supported by their regional Arab allies, the "Iranian-shia"-Sunni factor has been widely used by the western propaganda to inflame this and to have people deceived and believe that what's going on is a true revolution against a repressive dictatorial regime.

Russia should do more, sending S-300 anti air defense system to Syria would make the military solution the Satan's dream for the west and the Arab puppet countries. Iran should harass Qatar the main Arab country supporter of the terrorists whether with weapons or diplomacy in international level.

Report: Terrorist Groups in Syria Recruiting Azeri Nationals

Report: Terrorist Groups in Syria Recruiting Azeri Nationals


TEHRAN (FNA)- Terrorist groups are funneling Azeri nationals into
Syria via Turkey to boost their terrorist attacks on Damascus, local
media reports disclosed on Tuesday.

A report by Azeri ANS TV network unveiled shocking details on how
extremist groups in Syria, including Takfiri and Wahhabi jihadists,
are using different tactics to dispatch Azeri citizens from
Azerbaijan's Northern cities of Zaqatala and Qusar to Turkey and then
to Syria to conduct terrorist operations against the Syrian nation and
government.


A majority of the people in the two regions, located near Azerbaijan's
borders with the Russian Republic of Dagestan, are Sunni Muslims and
extremist groups in Syria have rearranged their plans to recruit men
from these two regions after people in the mainland gave a cold
shoulder to the extremist groups' offer of the so-called Jihad in
Syria.

"I am upset that my son has been sent to Syria by the Wahhabis. If he
is to take part in any war, he would have been better off if he had
been sent to Karabakh to fight against the Armenians and not the
Syrian Muslims," the mother of a young Azeri who has been sent to
Syria told ANS TV.

Similar media reports unveiled in March that militants from Russia's
North Caucasus have joined terrorist groups in Syria.

While Moscow has been one of Assad's main protectors, members of an
Islamist insurgency involved in daily clashes in Russia's
predominantly Muslim North Caucasus and their compatriots have
trickled into Syria to join the terrorists.

In a recently distributed video, Omar Abu al-Chechen urged fellow
Muslims to support the 'jihad' against Syrian President Bashar
al-Assad.

The video highlights the role militants from the volatile North
Caucasus region now play in Syria's civil war, fighting a government
that has been backed by Russia and staunchly protected by President
Vladimir Putin.

Syrian rebels confirmed separately that he is in Syria and the leader
of the brigade. His real name was not clear.
