Syrian Regime Targets Opposition Posts in Eastern Mountain Range

No insults here. Just a special tribute from the band that Bashar downloaded from itunes.
They are an English pop band and are free to express their views.
Please feel free to write to them about Bashar's humanistic project, great achievements, democratic ideas and economic accomplishments. That must have skipped them.

in my book "***hole" is an insult.

as for bashar's achievement, i think ridding syria from tens of thousands of murderous bloodthirsty cannibals and terrorists is not bad.
but anyway, who cares if brits are happy and like him or not? i dont think he's trying to please the imperialists and post-colonial powers anyway, which is exactly why they hate him so much.

It is not to my knowledge that the pop band "Right Said Fred" are neo-colonial imperialists! I know that they are a one hit band: "I'm too sexy" which they changed to "Assad, he's an asshole" in the above video.
In this video they also compare him to a mouse and to Hitler ("[who] at least knew how to paint").

did you hear the presenter? serving out his stale anti-assad propaganda thinking he's being witty.. right in line with the imperialist agenda.
good for him that he found a couple of have-been of blockheads to sing along and entertain a bunch of ignorants

The imperialist neo-colonial propagandist spy chanel MTV (Music Television) put it this way:
"There’s no way to sugarcoat it: Syrian president Bashar al-Assad is a brutal dictator who recently won reelection in what can only be described as a rigged vote and who has overseen a deadly three-year crackdown on the popular uprising in his country that has killed 100,000 and displaced millions.
“Last Week Tonight” host John Oliver feels powerless in the face of Assad’s iron-fisted rule, so he did the only thing he can reasonably hope to do to at least tweak the Syrian strongman during his Sunday night HBO show: he made fun of Assad’s terrible musical taste."

Btw Mowaten you shouldn't insult your champion Bashar's musical taste. He actually downloaded the song from neo-imperialist colonialist iTunes.

yea right, i bet they really did some important investigative works before reading out official propaganda lines word for word.

but hey, if you like music enjoy this clip

i dont care about his muscial taste, but the email hack was a hoax in the first place, didnt you know? i bet they didnt tell you that on MTV

Boney M! Really!
You are using imperialist moral decayed Disco to defend Bashar? Khamanei will not approve. This could get you arrested in the Islamo-fascist Islamic Republic of Iran.

Boney M! wooooweee. You must love their song: "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion."

@Mowaten : "in my book "***hole" is an insult."

It's only an insult if it's untrue.

Any Lebanese who supports Bashar is himself an "***hole" and a traitor. It's even worst than supporting Israel given the crimes and horrors he has conducted in Lebanon !

lol machia, i see you're a big fan, knowing all the lyrics to all their songs
too bad you missed the point by a mile, there's not even any "defending" in the video i sent you, just a one way ticket, valid for all traitors, not just in syria :)

Everytime you show support for Bashar or Hezbollah, you insult our nation, our sovereignty, our martyrs who fought for independance, our martys who fought to put an end to Syrian occupation.

Bashar must pay for his crimes in Lebanon irrespective of his crimes against his own people !

do you want some fries with your cheese?

An insult is better than murder, torture and theft.

and so?
i dont get the logic, are you saying if you can find worse, then wathever it is you're doing is right?
then i guess i could slap you, just because it would be better than killing you?

hahaha! that's exactly what Bashar needs, maybe that would release his frustrations. Asma, time to go to work girl! Bitch-slapping time!

@Mowaten : do you want some fries with your cheese?

Nope, just regular disarmament, peace and rejection of criminal dictators and enemies of Lebanon will be find.

Otherwise, choke on it !

lol then a double dose of cheese it'll be

still wondering why? boy you're slow, must be the hundredth time:

1- israel is our enemy, not syria (yea, sadly you dont get to decide who lebanon is at war with)
2- israel bombed the whole country repeatedly, including civilians and civilian infrastructure, and destroyed entire cities to the ground, whereas syria is only targeting smugglers and fighters on the border.

got it? i doubt... pretty sure you'll come back with the same question tomorrow..

sure for those who praise bashar and thanked him for the theft of the country, the killing of hundreds of lebanese, rapes, torture, destruction of entire villages and so on... syria is not your enemy: it is your way of life...

but you conveniently resort to israel who is not the only enemy but another one just like your beloved syria is, traitor!

syria harmed Lebanon more than israel but ma3leh they are not enemies they did that out of brotherhood and love ma heyk proud collaborator?

so do not come here and lecture me about patriotism because yours is very very selective....

Mowaten,

Israel bombed select parts of the country but in general I agree with your statement. However, you can say the same for Syria. A considerable portion of our population was targeted and bombed by them. You may not feel that your sect or area is the enemy of Syria, but considerable parts of lebanon have been targeted by the regime. This is the disconnect. Nobody is willing to admit that we have different enemies depending on the sect/geography.

no zahle it is not about "sects" or "areas", during the civil war all sides found themselves fighting syria at one point or another. and all found their interests with syria at one point or another.
even geagea had his honey moon with them, when he needed them to remove aoun from baabda. those were volatile times, and yet when you look at details you see syrian did not come in trying to destroy everything and kill everyone. for instance the much spoken of battles of zahle, and the 100 days in ashrafieh both together do not exceed 360 lebanese casualties. how can you compare that to the 20,000 dead and 30,000 wounded caused by israel in 1982 alone?!?

mowaten, I am from Zahle, I was a kid during the battles of Zahle. And enemy is an enemy. Zahle was not in Beirut, we did not attack the Palestinian, we did not attack South Lebanon, we did not ask the Jews to come. Syria hated us for other reasons. 360 casualties is a joke. 360 casualties is a joke. The surrounded us for extended periods attempted to starve us. Sniper fire on civilians and children. Mortared civilian areas. 360 casualties ballout!!! If you look at the length of time Syria occupied Lebeanon and the number of political assassinations and kidnappings and those jailed. I would even question your 20k. I'm telling you there parts of Lebanon that the Syrian regime has hated and targeted. If you deny that it is the same as those in Bcharri denying how the South was ignored. Period!!!

i'm not saying it is a joke, even 1 innocent life is too much, and i understand it marked you personally because you were there as a child, but when talking about politics you have to look at the big picture. you cannot look at this major historical event that was the civil war only through a peephole.
the battle of zahle had strategic reasons (control over the beirut-damascus road), and it was nowhere near as as bloody as other battles during our civil war (200 dead). of course on a human level i feel with you, but you cannot paralyze all of lebanon's political relations with its only neighbor over that.

Your casualties are way under reported just like the Jnoub casualties by Israeli hands are over reported. Do you think people in considerable proportions across the entire country have an issue with Syria of 360 lives? Or one battle. That battle is just an example, something specific, but there are about 1001 reasons why many Lebanese feel Syria is an enemy.

zahle those are the widely accepted figures. if you disagree kindly find sources that challenge those and i'll give them a read.

"Do you think people in considerable proportions across the entire country have an issue with Syria of 360 lives?"

that's exactly the point i was trying to make zahle, relatively small events are blown out of proportion and exploited by certain sides to throw oil on the fire.
certain leaders/powers have big grudges against syria for personal reasons, some want to demonize syria, others want to try to create a rift between lebanon and syria to weaken both and rule over us... so many sides have so many reasons to try to do this. but if you stick to fact you see that indeed syria wrong us, many times, but not to the point that they are our deadly enemy.

I am not saying its only 360. I think if more people were reading this thread they would agree. Its much bigger. To say all that Syria has done since they came into Lebanon was kill 360 people is not a widely accepted figure. I did not make that claim, you did, that is that 360 is widely accepted. I am saying about half of the population maybe more would agree it is in the thousands of lives that Syria has killed, kidnapped and jailed. I would say that is widely accepted. Syria is not disliked because of a few politicians with personal reasons, although there are plenty with such personal reasons. Its because many people in Lebanon felt bullied by them and attacked by them for years. There was no freedom for a large demographic of Lebanon for their entire occupation. There was no political freedom. People could not speak freely against issues with the regime. Are you pretending these things did not happen? GMA was their most outspoken credit for the period.

Are you really going to pretend that half the population was just blowing 360 lives out of proportion. You see, I believe you really feel that way, most of whom I know from Tibneen, Baraachit, and Bint Jebail feel that way that this paranoia with Syrian is unfounded. I don't think it, I have lived it. Just have you have lived it by another enemy. That is the problem. You denying this, is exactly the same thing as Israel bombing XYZ village. It is saying that as long as it is not your sect, it either wasn't so bad, did not happen, or is OK.

poor thing... we all know you do not care about the sovereignty of Lebanon and if it is bombed by your beloved syrian army... so all you say is just blabla and as empty as your mind and your allegiance to Lebanon...
