stupid question by the reporter.,,its obvious assad will never step down

Iran democracy ... ? You just lie to yourself.

Sure they are better than any Arabic country, but they are far from democracy. And how did they become better? Because they had a revolution, while arabs kept licking their dictators butt for decades.

And now your standing with a dictator?!

You don't even have an ideology, On one hand you support dictator, and on the other your against some, only when you feel like it, or what you heard on TV maybe.

[thearabfreedom]

I totally agree with you, a foreign backed revolution always fails.

Let's see who will wins in Syria.

[thearabfreedom]

I agree with you, for sure the US has this own agenda, that's what any "normal" nation would do.

BUT, this doesn't mean that if the US will benefit i shoudn't do it, as long as am also benefiting then idc about the rest.

If Iran was smart, they would have supported the people, because no matter how long, the people will win in the end.

I think it was a mistake which btw they can maybe still fix, to stand with Bashar for short term benefits.

Look at the US, they sold Mubbarak from day 1.

[thearabfreedom]

I just want to clear things out.

No one will move into any country after Bashar leave power as long as you stay away from it.

If mistakes keeps happening, like if Lebanese are coming and fighting for Bashar , for sure this will cause long term problems.

But ill be honest with you, Hezbollah had my support before they intervene in Syria, and I think that if it wasn't for some wise Lebanese, which they are from the south of Lebanon and they support our revolution, things would be worse.

[TheMORPHEUS1239]

why i care how u live? well,the monkeys in the fsa want to move into lebanon after they supposedly win in syria(wont happen btw),and that threatens many lebanese who are not sunni salafists sympathisers like me.

Lebanon is doomed ever since the civil war started in the 70s here,propaganda doesnt exist on this side,its facts.

look between the difference in bashar's standards and those of the fools who fight him.

he is an educated smart president,and they are farmers who can only say allahu akbar

[TheMORPHEUS1239]

Iran,is the only democratie in the middle east,aside from lebanon ofc. its president is voted by the people,so clearly you have no idea how better iran is from all the countries here,it built itself from ground zero,to become the most feared state here,strong politicaly economically and militarily,something its enemies hate to see.

and Hezbollah,is the only symbol of resistance vs israel in the arab world,along side the Palestinians. to me,hezbollah is no organisation its an ideology

[TheMORPHEUS1239]

Your are brainwashed, that's why you want to change a regime.

change is not the answer in Syria, that's why the revolution failed in the first place

a foreign backed revolution always fails

[adminmovie]

listen, I have no intention to hate you.. I m not saying Assad is a good leader. and some of you really want to get rid of him.. but do u think your country will benefit from it ? USA has its own interests in your country and those people want to use your country as their strategic point to attack Iran.. thats why they need to take down Assad before launching their next move against iran and bring their own puppet western dictator.. this will not do any good for Syrian but more chaos...

[adminmovie]

hai fucker I have the same thing to say to you .. if you hate Syria go and live in fucking USA or and shitty western country, or any western monarchy like Saudi Arabia, Qatar ... and no it is not up to you to decide .. it is up to majority of the Syrian people to decide ... u stupid fucking traitor ..I m not even from Syria ..

[thearabfreedom]

First, Bashar allies are ... Islamic republic of Iran and Islamic terrorist organization of Hezbollah (you should know that pretty well).

Which is worse than any other organization.

Why the hell you care how we will live? we choose how to live and you choose yours.

I know lebanon is only sectarian based, and that's why you feel the need to side with one side, but just stop believing in your propaganda for once.
