Damascus: Surviving terrorists in retreat

Los terroristas supervivientes se baten en retirada en Damasco

Resistencia Libia

21st July, 2012

Dans le quartier de Midane, à Damas, lors d'une visite organisée pour la presse par le régime syrien.

Víctima y verdugo del plan imperialo-sionista-feudal contra Siria

Las operaciones militares están liquidando los grupos terroristas infiltrados en Damasco desde el pasado domingo. Esta operación terrorista estaba evidentemente coordinada con el atentado preciso contra el corazón de la seguridad nacional esperando el desmoronamiento rápido del régimen antimperialista sirio. Pero estas previsiones han sido destruidas por la contraofensiva relámpago del Ejército regular sirio, la Guardia Republicana y las fuerzas de seguridad. Ya no hay combates en el barrio de Tadamone de donde empezaron los ataques de las bandas salafistas mercenarias. Desde el jueves el barrio de Midan está bajo el control militar

Tras derrotar al imperialismo, los soldados juegan pelota

 

El viernes ha sido liberado el barrio de Barzeh al norte de la ciudad, el suburbio Al Kadam junto a Tadamone. El ejército ha combatido y avanzado rápidamente en Ruken Al Din y Jobar al noreste y en Daraya. Estaría habiendo combates en los Campos de Mezzeh en las cercanías de Damasco hacia el suroeste. El ejército instala numerosos puestos de control para impedir que los restos de las bandas golpeadas puedan retirarse y reagruparse en otras zonas ya liberadas. La cadena rusa Russia Today informa de una intervención militar en el suburbio de Shabba cerca del aeropuerto.

Pero la situación no está completamente bajo control. Un grupo criminal ha asesinado a varios miembros de una familia cristiana que se desplazaba en automóvil y otro ha secuestrado al periodista de la TV siria Mohamed Aisa.

La pregunta es ¿Porqué la CIA ha sacrificado a cientos de jóvenes fanáticos y mercenarios en el intento imposible de tomar Damasco? ¿Pensaban realmente que el gobierno caería? ¿El atentado intentaba asesinar al Presidente esperando una rendición del régimen? Es posible que estemos ante un fracaso de la inteligencia norteamericana.

En todo caso ha fracasado la operación terrorista y ha fracasado asimismo el levantamiento de la población. Sólo un pequeño grupo de extremistas vendepatrias ha salido aprovechando el rezo del viernes en alguna mezquita ha exigir la ejecución del presidente.

Combined evil forces plot against Syria

22nd July, 2012

With the replacement of Bashar al-Assad’s government with one subservient to the interests of the Sunni Wahhabists of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf potentates, NATO, the United States, and the globalization plutocrats, Russia will lose its last naval base in the Mediterranean, at Tartus; a radicalized Syria that is in a more strategic location to export radical Islam to the southern Caucasus and largely Muslim regions of Russia; and a West, seeing victory in Libya and Iraq, ready to focus its sights on Iran.

Obama administration won’t condemn killers of Syrian security officials

19th July, 2012

Obama’s Presidential press spokesman Jay Carney, as well as State Department Press Director Patrick Ventrell, came inches away from actually endorsing the terrorist murder of three leading military-intelligence officials of the Syrian government, over the last two days. Carney refused to condemn the killings—at the same time he expressed effusive sympathy for the Israeli victims of the terrorist attacks in Bulgaria, which happened the same day.

14th July, 2012

Les images opèrent encore. Ceux qui regardaient les puissants moyens déployés par la République sur les Champs-Elysées, couvrant un vaste domaine d’armes et d’interventions, pouvaient s’imaginer que la France était encore une grande puissance. ..Ce qui est le cas d’ailleurs quand on la compare aux piètres capacités des autres pays européens, y compris la mirifique Allemagne – pour ne pas mentionner le Royaume Uni, tristement tenu en laisse par les Etats-Unis.

How leftist “anti-zionists” are allied with Israel against Syria

Posted by seumasach on July 21, 2012

Lizzie Phelan’s blog

20th July, 2012

There has been a ridiculous notion amongst numerous left groups and those opposed to the Syrian government, that the Israeli regime does not want to see Assad fall. As self-professed “anti-zionists”, many in these groups are content to delude themselves into believing that both their enemies are on the same side. In the case of several socialist groups, they believe that this forcing of the Syrian crisis into their blanket “anti-authoritarian” narrative (regardless of the state in which they are applying that narrative to) enables them to maintain a façade of anti-imperialism.

NATO PsyOp against Syria imminent

Posted by seumasach on July 21, 2012

- On Friday, July 20, 2012, around 19:00, signals began to be sent to imbed new channels onto Arabsat and Nilesat. The signals mimic those of Syrian television, duplicating both the graphics and logos. For now, the programs present patriotic clips.

According to experts, the signals are being sent from Australia, probably from a U.S. National Security Agency base.

The genuine Syrian television signals were interrupted yesterday by Arabsat and Nilesat. Their websites were hacked and are inaccessible.

- According to the Syrian Arab News Agency, quoted byRia Novosti [1], a film production company has built sets reproducing Syrian cities in Al-Zubayr (Qatar). False news reports are shot to eventually feed into the bogus TV channels that are planted on Arabsat and Nilesat.

- A large security perimeter has been installed around the studios of Syrian state television. Umayyad Square is no longer accessible and traffic has been diverted through the tunnel instead. In the afternoon, an explosion occurred in the tunnel blocking it. The Syrian authorities have chosen to completely cut off the main intersection rather than risk reopening traffic near the main entrance to the studios.

On June 27, the Free Syrian Army destroyed the studios of the privately owned Al-Akbariya.

- This afternoon (July 20), a Syrian television presenter, Mohammed Saeed (pictured), was abducted in Damascus by the FSA.

Germany wishes Syrian people to live in peace

Posted by seumasach on July 20, 2012

Mired in stupidity and hypocrisy the European leadership is hopelessly adrift. Here their double-think extends to the idea that conflict resolution involves sanctions against one side , the Syrian government, with a view to achieving the aims of the other, in this case Western backed terrorists. By thus undermining the Annan Peace Plan they intend to bring peace, presumably in the Orwellian sense of the term. Note that rights are conceded to “the Syrian people”, presumably meaning their individual human rights, but not  the right of Syrian national self-determination which is being trampled underfoot by the West.

Anadolu Agency

20th July, 2012

AKSARAY (AA) – July 20, 2012 – Germany’s ambassador in Turkish capital of Ankara has said that Germany wished that Syrian people would live in peace in accordance with their own rights.
