Sorry I clicked on this one.
U.S. providing secret aid to Syria opposition: diplomat
Maalouf said the doors of the White House and Congress are open to officials from the Syrian expatriate community, most of whom are supportive of the SNC, adding that the U.S. is secretly providing aid to the opposition, though he did not specify whether this support was financial or military.

It's funny that they come out and admit that something "might" be on the table, even though they have already been up to it. Typical double speak from the warmongers.

"they stick themselves to Sunni Muslims".
What part of my post did you not understand? I just said that 2/3 of Syria was Sunni and I said Al Qaeda is in there to protect other Sunnis. Now, you may consider them to be an extreme sect of Sunni, but they're still Sunni nonetheless.

Sidelining yet more opinions as they don't match your own! Astonishing. So tell me, what Governments / organisations support your stance?
It's a shame that your obvious American hatred is blinding you to simple, explicit evidence that condemns a bloodthirsty regime.

All that doesn't change the fact that this "opposition" was created by violent forces from outside. As I said this is a fact no matter what you say.
@IsraeliGuy
You, telling other members that they spill BS, must be joke of the month. Guys like you are responsible for more than 50.000 dead civilians in Libya, a war based on lies, which you probably supported as welledit on 19-2-2012 by ALF88 because: typos

The only problem is you deflect all criticism of your view as being propaganda or propaganda-fed. In reality, all parties know that it isn't. There is overwhelming evidence from sources innumerable that the Syrian Government are overseeing the killing of innocent citizens - this is not just Western sources but Arab sources too.

You say this in defence of being on the "right side of the fence".
But do you realise the people of Bahrain are being terrorized by their own government and there is NO mention of terrorists or "outside forces at work".... even from the Bahraini monarchy themselves!
It seems some people are only interested in what the MSM tells them, i say this alot... but people don't ever seem to realize this is the case!
Tell me why Bahrain isn't being issued UN sanctions or UN discussions over "humanitarian intervention"? Are you okay with Bahrain's civilians being brutally tortured by their leaders and authorities on the basis that your MSM is not reporting it as an act of destroying human dignity?
All parties of all opinions are being fed with propaganda, take the recent mention of the Syrian human rights group who hijacked a website's layout for counting civilian and troop casualties by recreatign the site on a different web domain. "Someone" had an agenda to manipulate those totals of casualties by increasing the civilian death count and decreasing the military death count... what does this say? And the fact what MSM outlets... big namers such as SkyNEWS BBC CNN FOX were all quoting the manipulated deathcount figures on as fact!

Five stars, three cheers, two thumbs up, and a round of drinks for you! But we have to remember that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

I'll try to waft through the ramblings to provide a more salient response.
Firstly, where you are viewing from is moot - any advantage that can offer you in seeing things as pro-Syrian I myself can use as being pro-Western. Being geographically closer to something does not necessarily make your opinion any more valid - that is a fallacy.
All you do is post ambiguous rhetoricals in the hope that those with a lnie of criticism give up or resort to name calling. I will do neither.
You have no evidence for your assertions other than your own arrogance. Whether the Saudi regime is a puppet or not does not tell us anything about the morals they follow or the level or popularity they enjoy.
Do you not realise that all countries have an agenda?
