Lies of the Times

"The Free Syrian Army’s leadership appears not to have taken an active role in the case, or to have been able to convince Mr. Dadikhi to release the men."  This is a lie as the thug who kidnapped the pilgrims (who were with the wives) identified themselves to them as members of the Free Syrian Army and the wives reported this to the media.  There is another lie in the article: that the pilgrims are Hizbullah members or supporters (not that this is a crime in Syria or in Lebanon) but several of them are in fact Amal supporters.
