Putin Backs Assad

[longknife]

This shouldn't surprise anybody. If Obama backs “moderate rebels” - if there is such a thing – it makes sense that Putin will back the Syrian president.


What does this mean? Obviously shipments of arms, equipment, and essential supplies. And the warfare going on, and on, and on.

They have invested too much money to loose him. They have spoken of demanding reforms in syria.

Good news for Syrian Christians.

It never ceases to amaze me how many times we see in print that we in the west back "moderate rebels" but no one can give them a name.



And anyone who has actually been following our leaders attempts to depose Assad would know that the terrorists errrrrrrrrrr moderate rebels are mostly paid foreign mercenaries.

Obama and the west have given the world ISIS all because they wanted to get rid of Assad.

How sweet of them!

For the record----the COMMUNIST USSR has backed Baathist pig regimes for the past 60 years. The communist USSR has been mezmorized by the filth and stink of totalitarian, socialism ---forever. The communist USSR give IMMENSE support to the Baathist shit project of Gamal Abdel Nasser and IMMENSE support to baathism shit in Yemen as far back as the 1950s. Where here is Baathist shit----there is communist support

Would rather see secular socialism and a vibrant Christian community in Syria instead of an Islamist shit hole that massacres all the remaining Syrian Christians.

baathism does not promote a vibrant Christian community----it is a hop, skip, and
jump away from being a shariah shit hole.
Baathist SELF DESCRIBE as secular ---they are secular in the same way shariah is
"secular"--------ask any apologist for islam------"do people have freedom of religion of shariah societies'? the answer will be a
RESOUNDING "YES" "NON-MUSLIMS HAVE RIGHTS EQUAL TO MUSLIMS---EVEN BETTER". You have a real need to know? Nasser was a Baathist as was saddam. talk to a copt or a chaldean

Why do Christians serve in the Syrian Army, mostly as officers, and why was the Defense minister a Christian before he was murdered by your Salafist friends? The reason that there were still Christians in Egypt and Iraq is because the Baathists were in power, once your Salafist friends take over, the Christians are massacred or have to leave.

"Christians serve in the armed forces and other security forces. Michel Aflaq, the founder of the Ba'ath party, was Greek Orthodox. Early on in the uprising, Assad appointed a Christian general, Daoud Rajha, as defence minister, but he was killed in a bombing last summer..."

Everyone is afraid of these extremists," said George Nashawati of the St Gregory Orthodox Society for Orphans and the Elderly in Damascus. "But especially Christians. Look what happened in Iraq. It could happen here."

Sure it explains--for anyone with a brain. They serve because it is an opportunity to make a living ------and in some cases they serve in order to try to ameliorate the filth

Russia will as far as I've read are going to jake it now. Putin is going to rock it.

 

[irosie91]

what does "jake it" and "rock it" mean? I believe that Putin will do what the erstwhile
USSR did ------in the 20th century------what they did was EUPHEMISTICALLY called "increasing their sphere of influence" <<
by some of my very liberal public school teachers way back then------NOW we can face the fact that PUTIN of ??? Russia??? is an imperialist pig

bullshit. They serve in the military out of personal ambition. Military service is an OPPORTUNITY in every society----for many people it is just about the ONLY available opportunity

the USA got out of it with bribery------both Christian and muslim ....not everyone can bribe their way out of it

how do you know what I know? I am fully aware of the fact that Christians in Syria are wealthier than muslims and also better educated. They have also been LEAVING for decades. What point are you trying to make other than your misperception that you "know" something. In fact,,, you are kinda clueless
