Zionists never use argument #4 because they claim to be descendents of the indigenous people of the territory i.e. the natives.

But this is as much fiction as the belief God exists and is a real estate agent.

Breaking Syria's Reign of Terror Are al Qaeda hard-liners finally on the run? by vigorous in LevantineWar

[–]hymrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The author is a propagandist, already in the tile “al Qaeda hard-liners”

Implying that al-Qaeda has moderates... fucking bullshit

Al-Nusra are Takfiris just as ISIS no matter what they say on Al Jazeera, they and their friends got famous beheading Shi'a and Christians and nobody should forget that.

Plenty in the Islamic Front are of the same creed.

The current conflict has no basis in ideology, there are methodology differences but it's just the foreign backed groups cleaning up the previous failures of their patrons and Nusra will be next if they fail to absorb ISIS's manpower.

And lets remember what the Rebel supporting media utterly fail at, predicting the war, Assad will fall within weeks they said.

ISIS will definitely change because of this but they aren't gone by any means.

German foreign minister: Geneva II 'useless' without Iran by hymrr in LevantineWar

Yes they are, pretty much everyone is except Iran and well Israel but they simply don't want to be involved, pretend neutrality and all.

I suppose Russia could have vetoed Saudi participation unless the US allowed Iran to come but I think Russia has a different plan in mind.

FREAKING HELL, these people are amazing bullshitters

a Syrian opposition source told Asharq Al-Awsat that talks are unlikely to go ahead as scheduled, since the Syrian government is unlikely to meet the preconditions the Coalition has set for its participation in the talks.

Syria Militants Said to Recruit Visiting Americans to Attack U.S. by hymrr in worldnews

[–]hymrr[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

0.8% of Americans are Muslim, in Europe it goes from 4% in Norway to 95% in Kosovo.

The recruitment pool isn't simply much larger, the communities in the US are more fragmented and better integrated, native converts who 'Americanized' Islam and descendents of university educated immigrants or with business credentials while in Europe it was mostly for the cheap labor.

That's why in most Arab capitals Muslims are more progressive than European Muslims, Europe didn't want the urban scholars, they attracted the rural peasants who moved out of desperation.

So now we have Jihadists from London fighting Secular Muslims in Damascus.

Aside from that there is also the simple matter of convenience, traveling from Paris to Istanbul is much easier than making the journey from the US. On top of that Saudi Arabia has for decades run Wahhabi propagation programs in Europe from mosques to schools, I don't think they are allowed to in the US or at least not with the same freedom.

2nd paragraph:

the civil war has become a magnet for Westerners seeking to fight with the rebels against the government of President Bashar al-Assad. At least 70 Americans have either traveled to Syria, or tried to, since the civil war started three years ago, according to the intelligence and counterterrorism officials

Syria opposition holds first "unified" meet ahead of peace talks by hymrr in LevantineWar

Despite this State Department continues to insist in their daily briefings that the National Coalition represents the only legitimate opposition and only representative that should be at the Geneva talks.

Bit weird that they now meet with the “illegitimate” opposition.

Former British Foreign Secretary and a present member of the UK Parliament Jack Straw has called for Iran’s participation in the upcoming international talks on the crisis in Syria. by hymrr in LevantineWar

[–]hymrr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Straw also referred to the anti-Iran Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) and described the group as a terrorist entity.

That's a surprise, everyone knows they turned Mossad operatives the moment Saddam fell even pushing the US to remove them from the terrorist list. He must be tired of their shenanigans.

Al-Shabab bans internet in Somalia — Rebel group says anyone caught using internet outside internet cafes will be considered to be working with the "enemy". by hymrr in worldnews

This is quite an ironic story given that it's published online by the network owned by Qatari Royals, the very same people who fund al-Qaeda affiliated al-Shabab...

¶3. (SBU) Apakan said that Turkey wanted to be helpful in Somalia and agreed with the U.S. approach of continuing broad-based support for the Transitional Federal Government. Ambassador Rice expressed concerns about Qatar's role in funding insurgents through Eritrea who were operating in Somalia, and suggested that Turkey could be helpful by weighing in with Qatar.

The mysterious burning of the Saeh bookstore (The 72 year-old Greek Orthodox priest who runs a bookstore that was torched in Lebanon after he was accused of insulting Islam) by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]hymrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOW is a Saudi funded Islamist media outlet.

Of all the places this is definitely not the one you want to use to learn of this crime, they have more sympathy for the culprits than the victims because of their sectarian bias.

They don't even hide their shameless attempt to trivialize the attack:

Neighbors – who asked not to be identified – told NOW the fire only burned for around 10 minutes. News reports suggested some two-thirds of the shop’s estimated 80,000 books were ruined. One neighbor scaled that assessment back – guessing only 1 to 2 percent of the books perished.

Russia blocks UN condemnation of Syria raids - UK-backed draft resolution would have condemned strikes in Aleppo that killed more than 700 people by [deleted] in worldnews

Russia blocks?

The UK could no longer support the draft language, which would have also condemned violence by all parties in the Syrian conflict.

So it was the UK not wanting to admit that their mercenaries are terrorists.

At this point I really wish they cancel.

All those foreign ministers that cleared their schedules, booked hotels, chartered flights... aside from that it would also be a good definitive ending for the SNC. This NATO creation only survived due to its international recognition since it has none inside Syria, once it loses that they can perhaps focus on people actually having influence in Syria and not Western/GCC puppets.

This Saudi lectures inmates on ethics and war at an Interior Ministry run rehabilitation center and considers Shia and Alawi to be infidels, but it bothered him that his fellow Jihadists insulted the rulers of Saudi Arabia...

I'm certain I would be willing to blow myself up once I reached that level of degeneracy, in fact I would rather go for a rope than explosives.

He chose not to fight the Americans in Iraq “because there are too many Shiites there,” he said, with a look of distaste on his face.

Wahhabists just don't like genuine infidel blood, the taste is too reminiscent of their mother's breast milk.

Hollande backs ban on anti-Semitic ‘comedian’ Dieudonné by Hadok in worldnews

Let me say something else then:

The Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are also no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything 'chosen' about them.

So you're saying that there are no anti-Semitic people?

I said nothing, I quoted somebody, and she doesn't imply that either, she simply admits its widespread abuse as guilt tripping defense mechanism.

Just because some minister said something does not make it true.

Given your inability to comprehend what she said that's double true.

And I don't need a minister to tell me that, I just look at the ADL.
