EUROPEAN UNION REPORT CONDEMNED SO CALLED SYRIAN REVOLUTION AS AN ANTI-SYRIAN ACTION

May 10, 2011 by freedemocraticsyria

On 9 May 2011, Professor Anton Caragea , Director of Institute of International Relations and Economic Cooperation has presented a comprehensive report on Anti-Syria revolution.

The truth behind the lies.

The report had stressed the fact that in Syria there is now revolution in making ,but a classical coup d`etat ,supported by old colonialist powers. ″

Syria is the least possible target for a so called revolution. In front of the country is a leader of undoubtedly huge popularity: Bashar Al Assad. Young, western educated, modernist, reform minded- his rule of just 11 years is miles away from the decrepit autocracy of Hosni Mubarak or Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.

Bashar Al Assad is having a clear track of successes: opening Syrian society, release of all political prisoners, fighting corruption, opening internet, accepting a western style society and creating a huge social and political base for his government ″ appreciates Professor Anton Caragea .

The reports emphasize the fact that Syria is a viable democracy an open society, in full process of reforms and modernization on all sectors of life, and the main target is just the independent foreign policy that the country is pursuing .  The main vectors for this attack on Syria are according to professor Caragea evaluation : ″the Syrian-Iran alliance it is targeted here. Iran was not attacked yet, because of just one reason: an attack on Iran, will instantly inflame the Middle East ,with Syria supporting Iran and Hezbollah in attacking Israel.

Now, taking Syria out of the equation, will mean the dissolution of Hezbollah, the dismantle of Lebanon and the end of any retaliation possibility for Iran.

The destruction of Iran alliances it is not the only thing at stake in the aggression on Syria.

In the last years Turkey had becoming a worrisome partner for West and Ankara`s  main partner in a new policy toward Arab states and Islamic community is Syria. With Syria, Turkey resolved border issues pending from more than 80 year ago, opened frontiers, resolved the disputes on Euphrates water and opened markets.

This was a success story of unmatched efficiency and now, if Syria collapsed , Turkey new policy will also collapsed and in the Arab world eyes will be just another partner of western aggression and the dream of a Turkey-Arab alliance will be shattered″ .

In this climate of conspiracy and pressure by dint of media manipulation and terrorist attacks the foreign power realized that :″ being impossible to create a revolution inside, Syria was targeted by a media war off unthinkable intensity. Photos and videos from Bahrain where presented on Al Jazeera and western stations as BBC and CNN as images from Homs or other Syrian cities , protest in Alexandria , with Egyptian flags, where portrayed as demonstrators in Latakia and the list could go on indefinitely  .

While in Syria there was no protests, groups of armed gangs where crossed from southern Syria and sent to kill civilians in Deraa, Homs, Hama , Latakia hoping to provoke a civilian reactions against so called army and police atrocities . This had failed one more time, as in Syria everybody knows that the army  will never fire on  protestors or civilians. The high regards that army is having in popular minds blocked this new attempt of spreading chaos″ .

In front of all this failed plots and attack the report of professor Anton Caragea is ending in a brighter light :  ″ people of Syria will always stead fast on their dedication to build an independent and free country by dint of honesty and refusal of compromise .

Syria will always prevail″ concluded professor Anton Caragea

Gunfire, Arrests in Damascus Unrest

Local Editor
Gunfire rang out in a suburb of Damascus on Monday as Syrian troops carried out arrests of regime opponents in the coastal town of Banias and other protest hubs, AFP reported.

The source of the gunfire could not immediately be determined.

The military statement said on Sunday that six soldiers, including three officers, were killed in clashes as the army pursued "armed terrorist groups" in Homs, Banias and around the southern town of Daraa -- three protest hubs.

“Many terrorists have been killed and others wounded. Scores of them arrested and large quantities of various kinds of weapons have been confiscated,” the military source added.
Meanwhile, the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad vowed on Monday in Al-Watan newspaper to press ahead with reforms and forecast the political crisis in Syria was nearing an end.

"The crisis will pass and end, and the question of administrative, political and press reforms will advance," he was quoted as telling a delegation of residents of Syria's main port city of Latakia, north of Banias.

He stressed the need "to consolidate national unity because the nation is the mother of all of us and we need to unite in the face of this plot," referring to Syrian official charges of terrorist gangs and foreign hands behind the unrest.

Al-Watan said the army had been locked "in a fierce battle against groups using heavy weapons, anti-tank rockets and machine guns" in and around Banias since Friday night.

In the mean time, an official in the Syrian Interior Ministry said that 1083 persons of those involved in the riots have been surrendered, but released after they were committed not to carry out any act, which does wrong to the security of country and citizen.

On the other hand, an Arab media resource said that prince of Emirate of Banias Anas Aerott have been arrested, along with its minister of defense and several Israeli intelligence officers.

On Sunday, a military spokesman said "units of the army and security forces continue to pursue armed terrorist groups... in Homs, Banias and the outskirts of Daraa," the state news agency SANA reported.

SANA also reported that 10 Syrian laborers returning home from Lebanon were killed in an ambush at dawn on Sunday near Homs.

The United States has warned it would take "additional steps" against Syria if it continues its crackdown, while the European Union decided on Friday to impose sanctions on 13 Syrian officials.
