"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Only in Syria ... (Sadeq Khanafer- Al-Manar)



Ridiculously, the "Syrian" uprising is not sectarian, but still they hold up slogans such as "Alawites to coffins…Christians to Beirut," "Muslims and Christians tread on Alawites..." and "Out loud we say, not one Alawite we want to see," or "O! Alawite, O! Pagan! We will open a grave for you!"… but they say their uprising is not sectarian!

Preposterously, their "revolution" is national and not linked to any foreign conspiring party, yet one will hear them say slogans such as, "O! Israel! We sacrifice our Souls and Blood for you!" or "Bandar, Bandar, Hariri …, We Want Al-Jazeera," and more slogans like, "No Iran or Hezbollah, We Want One That Fears God!" Are not those the ones who tweet and call out for the American intervention and involvement on their so-called "uprising"?

Idiotically, they claim their "uprising" is peaceful, yet their "sheikhs" have declared "Jihad" against their Syrian army and their internal security forces and against whoever disagrees with them. Are not they the ones who slaughtered the officers and the privates along with their families, maimed, and mutilated the corpses in application for their sectarian slogans? Are not they who snipe their own citizens from the tops of the minarets using American sniper rifles?
