Zawahiri Urges Lebanon’s Muslims to Help Syrian Rebels

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahiri voiced his support for Syria's uprising and urged Muslims in several countries, including Lebanon, to come to the aid of Syrian rebels confronting President Bashar Assad's forces.

"I appeal to every Muslim and every free, honorable one in Turkey, Iraq, Jordan, and Lebanon, to rise to help his brothers in Syria with all that he can," Zawahiri said in a new video message released on jihadist Internet forums, U.S. monitors SITE Intelligence said on Sunday.

A Muslim should help the rebels “with his life, money, opinion, as well as information," he added.

In the video titled "Onwards, Lions of Syria,” he criticized the Syrian regime for crimes against its citizens, and praised those rising up against the government.

Zawahiri, shown in front of a green curtain in the video released Saturday which runs for over eight minutes, urged Syrians not to rely on the West or Arab governments, whom he said would impose a new regime subservient to the West.

"Wounded Syria still bleeds day after day, while the butcher, son of the butcher Bashar bin Hafez, is not deterred to stop,” he said.

Since March last year, Assad's government has carried out a bloody crackdown on an uprising in which more than 6,000 people have been killed.

Gabby, peace, aragon, thepatriot, shab, allouchi, Dr. Samir Mbanda2 and all the other Christian Sunnis of Hariri Mafia are already helping the Syrian rebels. They do not need any lecture from their friend Zawahiri as these warriors are used to helping the Syrians especially at the hey days of their occupation of Lebanon. We all remember (or maybe not???) how these warriors made of the decent Lebanese a trampoline by continuously jumping on them and landing into the arms of the Syrian occupiers while scheming against ebn baladon.

Enfin Shab, tu saisi que le feu Syrien peut embraser le Liban. Que ces abrutis salafistes feront plus tard la peau aux Gemayels et à Geagea le dénommée docteur. Tu a bien raison que ce ZAWHIRI aille se faire foutre ailleurs qu'au Liban et En Syrie. Tu dois être content qu'ASSAD fasse le nettoyage et dératise ces salafistes de merde.

Al Qaida is long gone after Asama died. This Zawahri is neither charismatic nor has the face to lead.

Hence, it's better for him to shut up because the lowest Lebanese has more stature and abilities than him.

Default-user-icon teacher (Guest) 12 February 2012, 21:53

You are so right and that's why the Iranians admitted to helping them in Afghanistan and Assad was sending his fighter to Iraq, no wait that doesn't make sense but thank you playing.

It's very interesting so batman 'n super man are CIA inventions, not many very many people know that. God I really hope you are getting the medical treatment you so sorely need.

It is people just like you that when applying the eye for an eye, you will take out civilians and innocent people, your blind forward thinking creates no choice and no option but hatred and religious wars. The point is a butcher which we all agree on his bloody deeds cannot be faced with the same thing although this is his language but we'd rather be dealt with in a civilized manner thru sanctions and other peaceful punishments

Finally one topic that unifies us all .... zawaheri is a retarded man who still lives in the stone ages. How nice would it be if we also unite on other things that will fortify Lebanon from all ills (weapons in the hands of the army alone, demarcated borders, treason when a politician accept foreign money (political prostitution), treason to conduct foreign policy outside auspices of the Government and foreign ministry, investigate and try politicians for corruption and treason. Enough for now, you get the picture. A real modern state.

Bravo Love4bashar. Bien dit. Il ne faut plus rester neutre. Soit on est avec Bashar soit avec des abrutis comme Al Zawhiri pour nous gouverner et nous dicter notre façon de vivre. Et là, tout regret sera tardif.

Religious extremism is an overgrowth of sectarian fanaticism. Open minded people who are not obsessed with their confessional belonging should be able to stand and fight all these backwards dark ages barbarians.
We all should unite around the principles of human rights and personal freedoms.
Alzawahery promotes a theocratic totalitarianism which is worse then a lay dictatorship such as Assad's . Both should go.

Missing youssefhaddad 12 February 2012, 19:15

Not necessarily. Bashar and his father before him had counted on the fear of a Sunni extremists rule to remain in power despite their misdeeds.
The Syrians who are dying today will never replace a despot whith another.
