Re: Hezbollah Leader Vows to Fight on Behalf of Syrian Regime
This is where you are seriously mistaken. According to human rights watch, the rebels, have also caused plenty of grave human rights violation; and not just to soldiers but innocent victims.** I know of personal stories so please drop the pretence that they are the innocent party; they are equally guilty and definitely more crazy than assad. **
The fact that the west and arabs are funding, training, providing intelligence; makes them equal partners in crimes.
Hizbullah are not fooled; they know assad is not the real target; they know the oppressed syrians are not the real reason; after all he is not any less a dictator, or any less brutal than king abdullah of saudi and jordan, or king hammad of bahrain. Qatar kuwait etc... Infact assad is positively more liberal in comparison.
So what makes Assad any different? The fact that he is the link between iran and hizbullah. And every party I mentioned above, (including israel) has an interest in breaking this link. They have joined hands right now in this; and their real target is the 'head of the snake' as abdullah of saud put it.
A lebanon without hizbullah, an iran without the ayatullah is israels and the arabs biggest dream. They are the only real 'opponents' left, the rest have sadly fallen in line.

You have personal matters in Syria? I don't, but my Shaykh who is from Syria sure does have personal experiences - his house was destroyed by the regime. Another of his mureeds from Damascus was martyred, others associated with him in Syria are sought out and their bodies are taken, they are not even returned. There is no pretence here ... I have friends who went on convoys to Syria to provide medical aid. They have seen the ground reality. The number of refugees tells us of the ground realities ...
I am not saying Nusra are an innocent party, but I am saying there is another voice among the Ikhwanis and Al-Qaeda varieties, but who are not part of them, they are Sufic Sunnis and that is an official voice appointed by the people for the people who represent the majority of the civilians. Just recently my Shaykh has been invited to join the National Coalition, who are associated to the above groups, but my Shaykh is the only one of traditional grounding. He has been given the full backing of 25 other highly esteemed shuyukh in the country and he is Ahl-al-Bait - if that makes a difference to you.
The sorts of problems that Nusra are creating is by taking the weapons themselves and not holding back from unethical forms of warfare. They are pushing the civilians into concentrated areas so they can continue fighting their war, because clearly they want to take credit for any wins and would want to control what they gain too. This is massive problem, but it is not as big as the Assad problem.
I'll tell you what ... You post footage of the attrocities of Nusra and I'll post the Assad regime ones and then we can decide who is worse ... Equal guilt is not even near the reality ... dear sister.
