Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's Interview with Argentinian Newspaper Clarin

mods dont know where to put it

LINK

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad speaks to Argentinian newspaper Clarin about the ongoing civil war in Syria. The president says the country's crisis has become so deadly because of international interference. Assad says that Barack Obama's reluctance to intervene further is not down to principles but less finance and a lack of opportunity for America to benefit from Syrian peace. When asked if he would stand down in pursuit of peace, he replies that he must face his duty and remain in his elected position. Read more at www.liveleak.com...

Assad says that Barack Obama's reluctance to intervene further is not down to principles but less finance and a lack of opportunity for America to benefit from Syrian peace.

So Obama doesn't interfere and Assad still throws mud at him.
Not too bright of a thing to do, Assad.

When asked if he would stand down in pursuit of peace, he replies that he must face his duty and remain in his elected position.

In other words .. he'll let the country be torn apart and thousands of people die rather than step aside. Heck .. it's not much different than when he's in office killing people I suppose. Lovely fella' ... :shk:

You really think they'll leave him alone and get away with all that blood in his hand? According to reports at least 70.000+ killings?

"Terrorism cannot be a path to reform."
"The most recent figures show around 29 different nationalities fighting in Syria."
"Any decision about reforms in Syria will from from Syria, and neither the US nor any other state can intervene"

Few quotes from Assad that stuck out.

No mention of Israel was surprising. Also would of liked to heard why he thinks UAE are supplying the rebels and why Turkey & Jordan are also on the West & UK side. (Arab spring)

The thousands dying are mostly the foreign mercs since they can't seem to point their guns at the SAA or Syrian civilians without yelling allah ahkbar at them first. Countless videos of their idiocy

Step aside for who? Some bought and paid for Western educated elitist?

The truth is before this whole Gulf state backed escapade began most of Syria was living in a much better state of co-existance, then the "rebels" infiltrated.

You do realize those numbers include that highly organized terrorist faction hes fighting against that if it wasnt for western sponsorship it would already been crushed... because believe it or not he has a legitimate government thats been on the crossairs of western powers for years. What... you thought it was local insurgence? You think this crap started last year?

That he decided to mindlessly kill his own people just because they rebelled? No... he decided to cleanse the country of traitors working for the west looking to bring him and his regime down - tell me, if that happened in the US what would the US do? Imagine that China, Russia, Iran, NK, and a few more decided to sponsor a organized terrorist militia, arm it with some nifty and dangerous toys and tech with the purpose of bringing down the US government to install a communist puppet regime, slave of China: The same thing... kill or capture the traitors, the ones captured are sentenced to death.

And yes... many would die. Probably much much more than in Syria. The US would be ruthless and take that very serious and taking into account the latest demonstrations of power, you'd have many innocents taken along the way - the US government wouldnt even ask questions before shooting to save their sovereignty from falling - collateral damage would be a simple statistic to be taken care of later, not now - Syria, US, Russia, Nazi Germany and even you or me... all the same solution when it comes to save what is ours from being violated, taken away, stolen and appropriated by anyone else that has no right over it: a brutal response with the use of the supreme authority from which all authorities are derived - violence.

So ironically if the west stopped sponsoring their terrorist friends in syria, well that thing would be over way quicker and fewer would die - like a clean cut made with a scalpel, wouldnt even hurt that much.

But what Assad has stated is pretty much the true.

I know there are some here on ATS hell bent on personal bootlicking agendas, but I HAVE NEVER, EVER seen another more unbelievable BS before your post.

1. So protestors whom were only protesting about totalitarianism in the country, mismanagement in the economy that only benefitted the shia minority and top merchant class, high inflation and succor for the severe drought in early 2011, are labelled as terrorists, and be shot freely as if they were ducks???!!!


2. And when those protestors cowered in fear, returned to their homes, ended further public displays of discontent, BUT YET, tanks, artillery, troops, shia butchers were sent to their homes to bomb INDISCRIMINATELY, slaughtering innocent sunni men, women and babies, simply because they were easily labelled as traitors and terrorists???

And you used a nice and clean word to justify slaughter - cleansing the 'traitors'?

WHICH NATION ON EARTH IN THESE MODERN TIMES HAD DONE SUCH THINGS TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE????!!!!

Even authoritarian China and monarchy Russia simply catches one, either make him disappear into the night or into a prison cell, or Iran simply labelled the few protesting citizens as american or israeli spies and hang them.

In the ignorant past, it may had happened, BUT NO NATION SLAUGHTERS ITS OWN PEOPLE ENMASS THE WAY THAT HUMANSLAYER HAD DONE AND IS STILL DOING!!!!

Are you even human?
