Thus spoke Al-`Ar`ur
Shaykh `Adnan Al-`Ar`ur (the kooky Syrian cleric based in Saudi Arabia and who commands "some" support among "some" of the protesters in Syria--this is a question for you: who is more known in Syria? `Ar`ur or Gene Sharp?) here threatens to "cut off" the tongues of anyone in the Syrian National Council who does not call for international intervention in Syria.
