From Akram, now the chief Angry Arab correspondent on Syria: "Syria isn't on the front page
these days. Big news absent, but the small ones indicate that Syria is no more a
country. It's, rather, a psychiatric hospital:
1. The deputy
PM, Qadri Jamil, who is also the Minister of Domestic Commerce, is trying to
solve a problem that doesn't exist (or merely). That is organizing the
distribution of 2 government backed supplies (Arabic):
sugar and rice ignoring the more critical ones: gas, gasoline and diesel. He
also forgot to hang Rami Makhlouf, a symbol of the "high profile
corruption".
2. Ali Haidar,
the leader of a microscopic fraction of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party
(SSNC) and the puppet of Qadri Jamil, who in turn, is a puppet of the Syrian
regime is appointed Minister of the National Reconciliation. Given the official
account of the crisis according to which, the regime and people live a
Romeo-And-Juliet relationship and Syria is fighting a war against "terrorist
groups" that bear all the responsibility of the killings and the destruction,
one can wonder about the parties that would participate in the national
reconciliation process: civilians and armed gangs? or could be
Russia-US?
3. Bashar
Al-Assad met with George Wassouf, a prominent Syrian singer, who, in the
beginning of the Syrian crisis, was the hero of multiple pro regime concerts
that took place in Al-Omaouyieen Square in Damascus (before been obliged to stop
this craziness due to a stroke. During this one hour and plus meeting,
Al-Wassouf expressed his absolute support to his country, president,
government and people. In return Al-Assad reiterated his full support to
Al-Wassouf (Arabic)
4. Then he had
an interview with the Turkish newspaper, Jumhurriyet, during which he asserted
that being in the Office isn't of my concerns, rather it's what I can
achieve. I'm a man with passion for achievements (Arabic)
5. After being
flattened by the Syrian army shelling, the governor of Rural Damascus Province
is ordering his crews to accelerate their reconstruction activities so its 200
thousands residents are back within one week!!! (Arabic)
6. For the
fifth consecutive day, the regime's media is still silent on the massacre of
Zamalka. Actually no one knows exactly what cause this massacre: an artillery
shell, a car bomb, nor the exact number of victims and wounded… this only
happens in Syria.
7. Syrian
opposition meeting In Cairo:
a. Syrian
opposition is dialoguing with punches and chairs (Arabic)
b. The
political adviser of the Free Syrian Army, Bassam Al-Dada, despises
politics!!! For him, the essence for the moment is getting full support to
the FSA, while side political issues are not of our concerns (Arabic).
c. Muslim
Brotherhood opposes the separation between religion and state… calm down. They
don't want to establish a theocratic regime!!! (Arabic)
d. Khaled Abou
Salah, a leader of the "revolts in Homs": we're seeking a no-fly zone,
then: we want nothing from the Arab governments. Rather, we want the Arab
peoples to move. It's clear he hope the Arab people will impose the no-fly
zone!!! (Arabic).
8. Russia
believes it can win in Syria if Al-Assad is succeeded in smashing the armed
groups. US won't let this happen. They are both victimizing this people through
their proxy thugs."
