Mother Rami Teresa

"But protesters and activists did not appear to be impressed by Makhlouf's assertion, which was not substantiated or documented. They mocked him on social networking websites as "Mother Rami Teresa" and took to the streets on Thursday night as well as Friday.  "He was made of corruption, and his companies were not made of clean money," said Hozan Ibrahim, a Syrian opposition activist based in Europe. "That statement was a dirty game by the regime and did nothing and was done in vain. People didn't believe it. They're trying to polish [the regime's] image. It's not working.""
