note:
i am not here trying get sympathy by spreading lies, i am only trying to present the truth, and if i seem angry most of the time, it is because of the difficulty to control rage when dealing with the subject of the ongoing catastrophe, it is like a train wreck taking place over the course of years instead of minutes.

All made up. He simply lies, such decision never happened

yes the arabs are launching airstrikes to spill the blood of poor israelis just like the one today. u r beyond ridiculous. i am sure all the other facts i mentioned were also made up according to that site! it is a credible site as long as u say it is!

[Stavros]

you insist on twisting all the facts! i really don't know what to say!

how does the fact that the "sons of iraq" were fighting an enemy that came with the USA invasion of their country make that invasion or the resulting situation today a good thing??? were these suicide bombers detonating bombs in marketplaces every few days back when president saddam was in power? why wouldn't they want to take money to fight the extremists? it is not like the have any sympathy for them.

ah poor blair and bush, they didn't understand the country they were entering, they thought it was a country were committing atrocities is highly appreciated, they were entering a country to find and disable the weapons of mass destruction that has not and will not ever be found!!!

also, the division of iraq into regions isn't the direct result of constitution Paul Bremer's imposed!!! no, it is in the best interest of iraq to be divided according to religion and ethnicity!

also, all arab countries should become whores to the west and reap the rewards of being a tourism destination! the never ending sanctions imposed on iraq had nothing to do with it not being a tourism destination at all!

how did u figure that the syria was in ruins for four decades??? this is the kind of statements that are not backed by facts! had this not been a porn forum, i would have surely asked one of my american friends who live here to describe syria from their own perspective! u couldn't be more wrong.

yes we do have administrative corruption, but that is neither a cover for starting a revolution nor can it in any way be remedied by one especially when the so called revolutionists don't have a reform program of any sort! since president bashar al assad took over, corruption has been reduced a lot as well as the ability of people in important public positions to abuse their authority. corruption is a global problem, it is not in any way unique to syria.

i thank president hafez al assad from the bottom for making syria a country where everyone knew their limits and where robbery or homicide was virtually unheard of.

syria is an important element in the so-called resistance axis and no thanks we don't want a dialog with the murderers trying to complete their task of enslaving the entire planet. they can have all the dialog they want with traitorous governments of the gulf region, they can have a dialog about how to run over multiple protestors instead of one at a time with SUVs.

president bashar al assad is leading the change not fighting it, we have a new constitution, new media law, new election law, new law for political parties, members of the opposition in key offices in the government (the opposition that doesn't think NATO intervention is something to aspire to), lifting of the emergency martial law, and many many other reforms.

the only influencing for the better regarding the armed gangs is to have the brave forces of the legendary syrian arab army deal with them.

Bishr, I did not say that the invasion of Iraq for the purposes of regime change was a good thing, I actually said that I opposed it. The point I was making is that after the worst excesses of the insurgency, there were people who changed their position because the insurgency was not working, it was not reducing violence, it was not improving security, it was not going to send the US and the British troops away -because they could not be beaten. You have not actually said in what way Iraq benefited from Saddam Hussein, because you can't -my point about tourism was that had Iraq not fallen foul of dictatorship it would have enjoyed the kind of normal life they lead, for example, in Jordan, where tourism is an important part of the economy -for good reason if you have ever been to Jerash or Petra. Millions of people would love to have visited Iraq but were unable to because of that violent crook called Saddam. Perhaps you could tell me what happened to all those billions of $$ Saddam and his chums collected from oil revenue.

I did not say Syria has been in ruins for decades, but it is now, its political system is broken beyond repair -for you to say i thank president hafez al assad from the bottom for making syria a country where everyone knew their limits and where robbery or homicide was virtually unheard of is just an extreme form of defence, if you do not want the challenges posed by democracy, which is not going to make Syria anyone's whore, but offer the people who live there the right to choose their own government, then support dictatorship but dont cry the night they knock on your door and take you away to an unmarked building somewhere in the city. Hafez al-Asad's family connections in Latakia include criminal activities there, and if you don't think the old lion was a lawbreaker when he crushed the rebellion in Hama in 1982 your definition of criminal activity must be elastic.

The situation in Syria is desperate, we know that. You won't find many or any posters here who think it is a good thing or who dont know that outside parties are involved -what I think most people want to see is a just form of politics in Syria, because the old way of doing things does not work. One by one the dictators are going, and it won't be long before the Saudi family business can no longer buy off the citizens of that country. Because change happens, whether you like it or not. It is a pity that you don't see far enough ahead to work for a more open, honest and just society in Syria.

Bishr... could you state clearly for us to understand what your position is regarding President Assad. Are you a Government supporter?

How do you respond to reports that members of the iranian Revolutionary Guard are now fighting alongside Government forces in Syria to put down the insurgency.

Do you accept reports that Government bomber plans attacked a petrol station a couple of days ago killing more than 30 people?

Please make your position clear for us.

if Bishr will write anything against it , it will be the last time he visits here.............

You might be right... though I am sure his friends have bigger fish to fry (and lots more children to slaughter)

[hanan_hayek]

LOL!

thank u for banning the "bishr" account from posting, you couldn't have helped more in advancing the cause of revealing how ignorant, intolarant, and close minded the people claiming to be pioneers of freedom really are!

we have a saying in arabic, it relates to people adamant about spreading misinformation and hiding facts, it roughly translates to:

you can't hide the sun by raising a sieve to it.

Hanan... has he been banned? Not to my knowledge

I'm guessing that 'Hanan' is Bishr. Someone will sort it out if it was not intended...
