Knight, Syria funding Hezbollah is exactly the same as the US funding opposition groups. Both are "resisting" governments. If you think there is a difference, then you are wrong. In fact, Hamas resisted Fatah in Gaza for a while, so I wouldn't count on Palestine being "united" since both groups fought with each other as much as they did with the Israelis. No matter. Syria will always continue to be a pariah state. And no ammount of ludicrous excuses will change that fact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knight Of Shadows 1,767 #308 Posted April 20, 2011 to you perhaps .. but again your agreement ain't required both are resisting goverments ? hamas ain't resisting goverment .. it's resisting invasions there's different .. or should i even explain this ? syria is the " Only " country that refused ameriacan and israeli existence in the area while all the other arabic countries hid their head in their holes and acted like chickens making peace with israel and usa and acted as their puppets forgetting about the arabic people of palestine just in return for their personal interests it does me enough honor to be a part of a country that did not bow to the western influnce and power so the reason above which made syria to be drawn in bad image through most of the western world now usa financing oppositions to goverment the same oppositions whom trying to turn people against each other religions at each others .. races etc etc trying to start civil war .. that's not resistance that's supporting terrorism .. it's very like the usa no surprise however i don't wanna turn the topic to another topic i just posted a news of the events Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corp 1,427 #309 Posted April 20, 2011 How is accepting reality being a chicken? Israel is here to stay. The country and its population isn't going to disappear. Efforts were made to use violence to "help" the Palestinians and they failed badly. Using peaceful methods are having a much greater effect imo. And I don't see how funding what seem to be peaceful protests is the same as funding groups that see children as military targets. Hamas seems to have finally clued in the last few years but they were nothing to be proud about for most of their history. As for Hezbollah they seem to be less about fighting Israel and more about trying to gain power and influence in Lebanon. Having a state within a state with its own private army is never a good thing and it's my belief that unless Hezbollah stands down and starts to disband (along with the other minor militia groups) then Lebanon will never be as strong as it should be. Though this does bring up a question. Does Syria grant Palestinians full citizenship like I believe Jordan does or do they stay in refugee camps like in Lebanon?

Knight Of Shadows 1,767 #310 Posted April 20, 2011 peaceful protestors ? what's so peaceful about breaking into people shops ? shooting at people ? killing police and mutilute them ? it's actually feels so good to see syria became such a pain to use such depserate methods on it after refusing to be puppet to usa you describe the situation of hamas in twisted way why don't you describe it as people were living peacefully and a whole punch of people came with force under gun point and started killing off their families and building their houses on the ruins and bodies of the original people ? why didn't you describe it this way ? why do you mention hamas targeting children and family .. why didn't you mention israel doing the same or worse ?? are you really this one sided ? their fighting is their " right " as resistance for their lands that's about hamas about hezboallah syria started supporting it way back when " again " israel was in parts of lebanon to help them fight off invaders " also " as their full right to do so as the existence of israel in lebanon was occupying which makes resistance a legimate right why also didn't you describe it this way ? again why so one sided and finding excuses instead of facing the facts of history ? down to your question .. palestine people are refuges they live like any normal syrian and even serve in syrian army but without syrian id so they won't forget their roots let me debunk this weak point you're trying to sneak around syria .. when the palestinians scattard all over middle east syria was the most country who took them in let's go back to iraq war ? nice ? we got a very large number of iraqies in syria who came at the time of war on iraq which resulted really bad impact on syrians regardless job chances and living level but syria Kept taking them in again .. in lebanon war syria's door was open to all lebanon at boreders offering them water and shelter on the borders and making them comfortable as possiable till they get off the borders to syria so i think it's the last thing you should talk about that's syria didn't do much for citizians of other arabic countries the facts are against you here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corp 1,427 #311 Posted April 20, 2011 (edited) Yes asking a simple question is sneaking around an issue. Though I thank you for the answer. And I'm not one sided on the issue as my posting history will show. I think both sides are in the wrong and would much rather slaughter each other than try to live in peace. A few years ago I was pro-Israel but with their government showing more and more that they don't want peace and the main Palestinian groups finally cluing in that terrorism gets them nothing my views have shifted. And yes peaceful protests. Because that's what the world media outlets are showing, largely peaceful protesters who are getting shot up by what we're told are Syrian security officers. In addition I believe that you yourself have said that people are peacefully protesting but unidentified gangs are killing them, trying to break up the country. Has this changed now? Are the anti-government protesters now killing people? Hmm...seems the Syrian Cabinet has passed to bill to get rid of that state of emergency.

Corp 1,427 #313 Posted April 20, 2011 Could be just having people fill out a permit for protesting. Know they have that here so if you're doing a march they know to have police on hand to redirect traffic and such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knight Of Shadows 1,767 #314 Posted April 20, 2011 no need to apologize moon indeed a peacefull protest should inform the goverment " mere inform and not taking premission " just to inform the goverment so they can give extra security to the area so there won't be any troubles or violence plus to make traffic take other paths and such things it's not premission to protest it's to inform the goverment so they can take measure acts of safty for protestors and prevent violence and such acts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MichaelW 106 #317 Posted April 21, 2011 to you perhaps .. but again your agreement ain't required both are resisting goverments ? hamas ain't resisting goverment .. it's resisting invasions there's different .. or should i even explain this ? Firstly, Gaza has not been invaded and there is no evidence to suggest otherwise. Secondly, you don't need to explain anything because it is not different at all. syria is the " Only " country that refused ameriacan and israeliexistence in the area while all the other arabic countries hid their head in their holes and acted like chickens making peace with israel and usa and acted as their puppets forgetting about the arabic people of palestine just in return for their personal interests Those who have made peace have benefitted. As I recall, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait and all the other kingdoms are far richer than Syria. They have made progress. Also, Arabs don't care about Palestinians. it does me enough honor to be a part of a countrythat did not bow to the western influnce and power so the reason above which made syria to be drawn in bad image through most of the western world now usa financing oppositions to goverment the same oppositions whom trying to turn people against each other religions at each others .. races etc etc trying to start civil war .. that's not resistance that's supporting terrorism .. it's very like the usa no surprise however i don't wanna turn the topic to another topic i just posted a news of the events No, you try and influence the opinions of others. As you said, you were the "messenger of truth". The protests were against the state, not each other. Again, facts have not made an appearance in your reply. And besides, Syria supports terrorism as well. It's very hypocritical to say that Americans sponsor terrorism when Syria does as well. Don't deny it because you do.

Corp 1,427 #323 Posted April 21, 2011 however you might be talking about western channels but all those channels you speak of take their news from the arabic channels who belongs to a puppet countries to the usa .. arabic cnn = england .. no comment Alarabyia And Aljazerha Saudia .. and United Arab Emirates had i recall it right however So the Western news agencies are getting their information from Arab news agencies who are actually controled by the West? That makes no sense. Japan is talking about stories other than Syria, South Africa is talking about other stories, and India is talking about other news stories. So really you can't just dismiss this as a Western thing. Besides if making the Syrian government look bad is some vast Western plot than why are all the major news networks treating the protests as just another news story?
