It is amazing, if you think about it. I posted down about the incredible account told by Riyad Al-As`ad of the Free Syrian Salafite Army about the Aleppo bombings: how he admitted that they were there and shooting at "shabbihah" at the center, but that they left, and the bombing occurred after they had left. So the "Shabbihah" of the regimes bombed themselves to blame them. This account is being told with a straight face by Western media, and the BBC. The BBC added its own flavor: they talked to a man in Aleppo who said: that he heard loud explosions and building shook and...that the regime was behind it to deter protesters. He was not even asked for evidence. Just like that. They then turned to their correspondent, Jim Muir who is "monitoring developments in Syria from Beirut (just as I am monitoring developments in Syria from Modesto, California--so my take is as valid as his). Muir said that the bombings were the work of "intelligence networks" and that they are inconsistent with the "bulk" and "mainstream" uprising in Syria which is--he said--peaceful. Kid you not. Protesters now hail the two Armies (there is the Free Syrian Army and the new Syrian Supreme Military Council) and the main opposition group, Syrian National Council just last week said that it "elevated" its coordination with the Free Syrian Army, and our Jim Muir is still under the impression that the uprising is peaceful. Muir added that since the bombings "appear to be" the work of intelligence networks, they have to be blamed on the regime. I kid you not. The man has been in the Middle East for years, and he surely must have heard of various organizations (secular and religious) that resort to car bombs or bombings in general. Finally, when he talks about "intelligence network" is he implying that there are no hostile intelligence network operating in Syria? I mean, the enemies of the regime in the region are not even discreet or shy. And how did NATO fight its way in Libya: peaceful protests too. Please answer us, Mr. Muir.
