Syrian defense minister killed in Damascus blast

[empirex]

Well done to the Syrian rebels.

And the Syrian Rebels have committed no murders or atrocities!?

And just who is killing who? Wag the Dog anyone?

And no, I'm not saying the Syrian government is innocent at all, but open your eyes to what and who the rebels are and who's backing them -- and that are committing as many atrocities as the government.

And so another Middle-Eastern country falls into ruin. Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Egypt, Syria... who's next, Iran or Lebanon? The Middle-east in flames... "I love it when a plan comes together, Murdock."

Don't be looking too hard for many non mainstream believers in these parts.

Great article. Great piece of journalism.

Thanks for sharing.

As long as these animals are killing each other and not sponsoring more terror aimed at Israel I really could not care.

[STS]

I care, innocent people/kids are dying while these monsters fight each other for an invisible diety and power. And who is backing them? The western world again.

They do not represent all muslims, they are a fringe minority but they are brainwashed and bloodthirsty

Just take note of what kind of governments are being rebelled against. They are all characterised by political strongmen and a myriad of social/political issues. People wanted change, they protested and demonstrated, they were aggressively put down and so the seeds of violent insurrection were laid.

Power ultimately lies in the hands of the people. It's also why I believe the youth time-bomb South Africa is sitting on is a very real danger. Sadly the only solutions seem to be the extreme/knee-jerk avenues instead of a more focused and controlled way forward.

You are aware that this is part of the greater Arab Spring, and the result of a myriad of underlying social, political and economic issues?

So tired of this ''Oh it's the West's fault''. Yes, the West may be backing them BUT, the people of all the countries that fell into turmoil sought revolution themselves.

And anyway, China, Iran and Russia are fuelling the Al-Assad regime, so why not moan about those darn rogue nations backing them?

Why does the west fund the liberation of some countries with dictators and not others is the question I am asking myself.

Bob is still alive and it is common knowlegde that he has caused the suffering of many.

So I ask myself is it the oil ,No.
Is it the beatiful landscapes of the deserts , No.

What else could it be ?

Well bahrain is prime example of the western double standards.

They fund and arm rebels in syria but ignore the bahrainian(no idea if that is correct haha) plight because they have a base there, then they say the russians are bad for protecting syria but russia have a base there.

The biggest problem with our race is people accept double standards and different rules for whatever reason. Go in and liberate bahrain and i will turn into a western supporter over night but that won't happen.

Geostrategy & geopolitics.

If a pro-Syrian government comes to power they can further isolate Iran.

By the same token, instead of always going at the West ask yourself why China, Russia and Iran always seem to back these so-called rogue states? The answer will be the same. Just like the US and Bahrain, Russia has been reluctant to do anything about Syria because Syria is their foot in the Middle East.

Quite simple really. Vested interest.

They get involved in things where they have a vested interest, and they leave things where they don't. The propaganda is just spin. The same goes for pretty much all nations. Some just have more influence and power to cause actual change than others do.

The point where you should really start worrying is when they start acting on things in which they have no vested interest.

Yea i also think they are trying to isolate iran, once syria falls iran have very few friends in the middle east, if any but they must be careful. Barhain is full of shia's, attack iran and bahrain could decent into chaos.

An attack on iran will come once assad falls and he is close to falling, major fighting going on in syria now, anyone who thought the regime was only killing civilians must be feel like a right chop now.

Well armed rebels are putting up a big fight and the issue for assad if he responds too strongly the media will spin it and he will be attacked by nato.

Preparations for an iran attack are in full swing they just need to get the support which currently they don't have, they keep blaming and trying to setup iran but amazingly many people are not buying it anymore. People are waking up.
