This report gets up close with the Free Syrian Army, crossing the border from Lebanon on a mission to topple the Assad regime; the new frontline of the Middle East's most strategically vital uprising.

Under cover of darkness a small group of men wearing the uniform of the army they deserted scramble from Lebanon back into Syria, trying to avoid detection by the soldiers they once served with. "We need to monitor their movements so we can prepare to attack them", says Abu Ali, whispering as he tries to avoid the attention of the loyalist Syrian soldiers standing guard at a base less than 100 metres away. Dressing in the trademark leather jacket of the Syrian secret police, Abu Ali, a FSA commander, speaks about the torture and the spying he played a part in as a former member of Syria's Military Intelligence and about how he balked at orders to gun down his neighbours as they protested peacefully for an end to Assad's rule."The regime is a like a criminal gang", he says. After eight months of peaceful protests failed to dislodge the dictator, the FSA says only force can bring down the Assad regime. They are now calling for the international community, including the EU and US, to arm them and for NATO to impose a no-fly zone over Syria. "Our strategy is to fight a guerrilla war against Assad's troops", says Quteiba, a second FSA commander.

@GodOfSinners you can buy M16 in Lebanon easily. Remember that Israel is next door and also the weapon many Christian militia used during civil war = M16. Peace

President Lockstep Peace Prize is fomenting a sectarian blood bath by completely taking the side of the Sunni insurrectionists. Assad offered negotiations and reforms and Obama, Hillary, etc cut the rug out from under him by publicly dismissing these overtures.

Lot's of "God Talk" for being "Pro-Democracy" folks, huh? LOL These cats are working for US, UK, Israel, NATO.....just like the fake democracy "revolutions" in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya. These cats are al Qaeda!!!

USrael is trying to finish the list that was leaked by General Wesley Clarke after the false flag attack of 9/11. Like in Libya they are using rats, Islamist terrorists and gangs to invade and destroy a sovereign country. Every Syrian should hunt them down in order to save himself from a deadly onslaught with WMDs and carpet bombing by USrael. Now that the planned chemical attack of the NATO rats went south everyone knows what kind of thugs you're dealing with (MAIL-ORDER MASSACRE).

They'll all be dead from drone strikes soon. :-)

[dumbnetworks]

@MrJuancarlosferrero dictatorial regimes are going down like it or not! maybe you have something to lose when they fall!

[MrJuancarlosferrero]
