Rami Makhluf

Comrade Ibrahim Amin calls on Bashshar to arrest his massively corrupt cousin, Rami Makhluf.  Makhluf is a tycoon who is involved through corruption in every facet of the Syrian economy.  He also owns the Syrian daily, Al-Watan.  Last summer, a reporter from Al-Watan contacted me and told me that they wish to publish an interview with me.  I said: I understand that you would like to have me go on against the enemies of Syria and I relish attacking Saudi Arabia, Israel, and March 14, but I said that I also wish to attack the Syrian regime and its allies.  Would you also print that, I asked?  She said: let me check with my boss, and I will get back to you.  I am still waiting.
