Assad Says West Changing Position on Syria War
2014-06-12
[AnNahar] Western countries that back the revolt in Syria have started to shift position on the conflict because of the danger posed to them by jihadists, according to Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad
Oppressor of the Syrians and the Lebs...
"The United States and the West have started to send signs of change. Terrorism is now on their soil," said Assad, according to remarks published in a Lebanese newspaper that backs the Damascus regime.

"An American went kaboom! on Syrian soil, while a Frenchie (of Algerian origin) killed Jews... in Brussels," said Assad, according to Al-Akhbar newspaper.

A 29-year-old Frenchie of Algerian origin who spent more than a year fighting in Syria is being held in jug on suspicion of a May 24 shooting that killed four people in Brussels.

Late last month, the United States said an American national carried out a suicide kaboom in the north of Syria.

Leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized nations have announced a decision to tighten their defenses against the risk of terror attacks by European jihadists returning from Syria.

According to Al-Akhbar, Assad said "current and former U.S. officials are trying to get in touch with us, but they do not dare to because of the powerful lobbies that are pressuring them."

Syria's war began as a peaceful movement demanding political change, but later morphed into an armed rebellion attracting foreign jihadists after the Assad regime unleashed a massive crackdown against dissent.

#1  What....? Don't tell me we've been backing the wrong people again. Someone ring up Susan Rice, we've got to get to the bottom of this.
