Around 1500 people, mostly Australians of Syrian descent marched in Sydney on August 5, calling for an end to foreign intervention aimed at destroying the government of President Bashar al-Assad. The Australian media gave the march almost no coverage, unlike well-publicised though much smaller protests against the Syrian government.

La vaillante armée syrienne vient une nouvelle fois de porter un coup fatal aux terroristes, en libérant avec brio, la ravissante Yara al Saleh-Abbas, qui avait été enlevée avec son équipe de la chaîne de télévision Al-EkhbariyaTV par l’Armée syrienne libre alors qu’elle filmait les combats à Al-Tal. En captivité, la pauvre était obligée de porter le voile (photo). Voilà ce que veulent les Occidentaux, pour les femmes syriennes. Chacun est libre de porter ou de refuser le voile. Ce n’est nullement une prescription religieuse…

Collections of “interviews” conducted abroad and “in the field” shape latest UN report – compiled by US corporate-financier representative Karen Koning AbuZayd.
by Tony Cartalucci
August 15, 2012 – “The [UN] report covers the period between Feb. 15 and July 20 and involved 1,062 interviews, both in the field and in Geneva,” reported the Washington Post in their article titled, “UN expert panel concludes Syria regime, militia have committed war crimes against civilians.” The Washington Post also writes that the UN report stated, “anti-government armed groups committed war crimes, including murder, extrajudicial killings and torture.”
The value of a report based on “interviews” is throwaway propaganda – to be twisted and used by both sides accordingly, but ultimately adding nothing in terms of documented facts or forensic, photographic, and/or video evidence. While providing a window into the current state of propaganda hanging over the Syrian conflict, the report adds nothing in terms of a better understanding of actual events on the ground. The language used by the Washington Post, and the selectively accusing title chosen indicates that the “twisting” and leveraging of the UN’s latest report has already begun.

Through its much-touted ‘zero problems with neighbors’ doctrine, the Turkish government had set out with a realistic chance of being everyone’s friend. It has now made itself everyone’s enemy, including its own, by embracing policies that have put it on a collision course with disaster. By being duped into burning its bridges with Syria – Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya explains – Ankara has laid the foundations for the destabilization of the Turkish republic at the hands of the very same powers whose deleterious strategy she is currently serving.

“To examine the situation in many countries of the Islamic world, intensify efforts to confront this situation, address the sources of discord and division therein, reunify the Islamic Ummah and promote Islamic solidarity.”
That is how Saudi Arabia’s leaders initially justified their decision to hold a special meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation conference (OIC) in Mecca this week – their actions since suggest their real intention was to use the OIC as part of their crusade against an embattled Damascus and their ‘cold war’ with Tehran.

Grandes marchas palestinas a favor de Siria
Combatientes palestinos del norte de Líbano
Miles de palestinos salieron a las calles en varias regiones de los territorios ocupados para manifestar su apoyo al Gobierno y al pueblo de Siria ante las conspiraciones de los enemigos, informó el lunes la cadena televisiva Almenar. Además de condenar las injerencias extranjeras en los asuntos internos de Siria, los manifestantes denunciaron que EE.UU. y algunos países árabes buscan favorecer sus intereses en Siria.
Los participantes en la marcha portaban pancartas en las que se leía “cualquier amenaza contra Siria se considera también contra otros países árabes y contra la resistencia de los palestinos”. En este sentido, enfatizaron en la unidad entre el Gobierno, el Ejército y el pueblo de Siria en contra de los grupos terroristas que intentan desprestigiar a las autoridades de este país.
Siria sufre desde mediados de marzo de 2011 disturbios perpetrados por insurgentes armados. Algunos países occidentales y sus aliados regionales respaldan a los terroristas a fin de acabar con el Gobierno de Bashar al-Asad y allanar el terreno para una intervención militar extranjera.
