The difference between a real revolution and a pseudo revolution..

It has come to my attention that people are finding it hard to grasp the concept of what is a real revolution and what is a revolution built on lies and political agenda. A real revolution comes from the lower class in society, the ones who feel disenchanted with their governments, a real revolution is built on thought and philosophy. A fake revolution has no class, its has no ideology;no heart. Take for example the Russian Revolution built on years and years of ideas from Karl Marx to Vladmir Lenin, Engles,Nechayev,it was built on the great ideas of great men. On written work like the communist manifesto (Marx and Engles) or the April Thesis (Lenin). It held the support of all the lower class masses. on the other hand you have Syria a country which has a limited amount of class division and a stable economy, the "revolutionaries" did not rise from the masses (they don't even live in Syria), they have no ideas, no political theories. And not to mention their responsibility for the murder of Syrian people! how can you claim to represent a people and then murder them if they don't agree with you? I would also like to point out a pattern of very well timed 'revolutions' for America, First Syria, Bashar Al-Assad refuses American transnational corporations in Syria and nationalises its companies,and raises its tariff walls. Secondly Ukraine, who is heavily reliant upon Russia specially economically. And Venezuela who's president Maduro came out in an open statement and stated his support for Syria and denounced the actions of the West. These are the three most prominent uprisings, but there have been hundreds of attempts by America to achieve the political agenda they strive towards. Its time to question how valid these "revolutions" are. In a time of war, in a time of major uprisings the revolutions belong in the West not in the Middle East or in Europe. oh there are revolutions but they are American, Australian, British; yet the true revolution will never be televised. America; the country built on the blood of innocents, Australia; the country which shows asylum seekers absolutely no humanity or compassion instead they create extremely sickening detention centres to lock people in. And Britain, the american puppet which treats the lower class inhumanly and who would so quickly go to war with a country because America said so. Where does the true revolution belong? Who are the real revolutionaries of our time?

LA gang members join fighting in Syria, Why Ukraine is vital to Syria, Assad Gaining Ground in Syria.

GANG MEMBERS IN SYRIA It has been reported that two LA gang members, one from the Surenos a Mexican gang and the other from a Westside Armenian gang.A video was put up online where the two men identify themselves and claim to be fighitng on the front line in Syria. Yet it is not fully known if the two members are really in Syria and if they are fighting at all. It has been reported that the two men 'creeper' and 'Wino' are fighting for Bashar Al-Assad, and are supporters of Hezbollah. WHY UKRAINE IS VITAL TO SYRIA in other news the situation in Ukraine has escalated drastically,Russian troops have entered Ukraine, due to 60% of the population being Russian. The Ukrainian protests are 'unconstitutional and has nothing democratic or peaceful' and undemocratic It is only natural to wonder why this has anything to do with Syria. Ukraine, just like Syria is a pawn in Americas Secret war. America has time and time again created pro N.A.T.O protests. Syria is a close ally of Russia and is heavily influenced by them. Ukraine is also heavily influenced by Russia both culturally and economically, not to mention the major pipeline that supplies Europe with Russian gas: that conveniently runs through Ukraine.. This is reason enough for america to try and destabilize the allies of Russia. The situation In Ukraine and the situation in Syria are now very closely linked and this will continue to develop in the coming weeks. ASSAD GAINS GROUND in good news, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA)'As of yesterday the Syrian Arab Armed Forces re-took al-Sahel and several hills surrounding Yabroud in a military operation to liberate al-Qalamoon. Also an ambush took place when a terrorist group tried to cross the border from Lebanon to Yabroud, the ambush escalated to a full engagement resulted in the killing of at least 30 terrorists and the capture of others.' It is incredible to see the complete breakage of the rebel forces and the unorganised nature of their fighting, which has led to fighting within factions and also led to loss of major territory.

Maaloula.

This week, Syrians held their breath as the horrifying news emerged; 12 Syrian nuns have been abducted from the Christian town of Maaloula. Maaloula is a historic city that is meant to be preserved not destroyed. In fact Maaloula has been bombarded by these so called revolutionaries, they have raped, killed, tortured and even worse have forced Christian residents to denounce there own religion in order to survive and those who don’t are beheaded. Syria's Greek Orthodox patriarch has urged Syrian rebels to release the group of nuns who were taken from a convent in Maaloula. Mother Superior Pelagia Sayyaf and 11 nuns were kidnapped from St Tecla Orthodox monastery after it was overrun by rebel forces who had taken control of the city in southwest Syria. "We appeal to the seed of conscience that God planted in all humans, including the kidnappers, to release our sisters safely," patriarch John Yazigi said. "We call upon the international community and world governments to help secure the release the nuns of the St Tecla convent." Yazigi said that orphans who were in the foster care of the sisters had also been taken hostage. Febronia Nabhan, the Mother Superior of nearby Christian convent of Saidnaya, said that the nuns had been taken to the rebel stronghold of Yabroud, 20km north. Not only is that completely disgusting and hateful but it should have been a red light to Christians around the world. This has never been only a Syrian concern it is an international one. The international community has allowed these monsters to completely erode not only a Christian village but also a historic one who still speak Aramaic. So, these ‘moderate’ rebels have called for a revolution; of what kind? One that rapes and tortures their opposition? One that kidnaps nuns? One that allows them to kill journalists simply for having an alternative opinion? That is the ‘rebellion’ and that is what these people want. They aren’t calling for democracy or a better Syria, they are calling for an end to moving forward and they are calling to an end of a sectarian nation. There has never been a revolution built on hate and murder, where are the thinkers, where are the scholars? Please pray for Maaloula and for the kidnapped nuns. God bless the residents of Maaloula, We are with you! Lisa.

Peace talks

Peace talks are still under way to solve the long and destructive Syrian crisis. But one can't help but be cynical when peace talks keep failing and certain parties don't come to the table. The new delay came as the United Nations said the scale of the crisis was much worse than previously thought. (http://www.thenational.ae) Geneva 2 is meant to follow up on a conference last year that produced a transition plan for the war-ravaged country which was never implemented. It was initially planned for June, but has been repeatedly delayed amid stark disagreement over the premises for the talks and the list of participants.

The fate of the Syrian president, Bashar Al Assad, remains the main sticking point, with an ever more splintered opposition refusing to attend unless his resignation is put up for discussion – a demand rejected by Damascus.

“We will not go to Geneva to hand over power,” the information minister Omran Al Zohbi said on Monday.

“President Bashar Al Assad will remain head of state,” he added.

But peace talks in my opinion won't work in these circumstances because it is not a conventional war or situation.

Conformity in society.

Today I observed students at my school, we had an assembly and as I looked around a few things caught my eye. The first was the fact that every single girl was wearing the exact same thing like a thousand clones re printed over and over. The second was how the students listened to every single thing the teachers would say "line up" "sit down", it doesn't end. It got me thinking if we at the tender age of five must conform to a totalarianistic approach to learning rather than allowing the children the right to become there own self then could that possibly be what's wrong with society? We conform, we conformed for Afghanistan and we conformed for Iraq and now we are conforming for Syria. We are again like the students and the political leaders are the teachers they demand the same things "line up" "sit down" and we obey. Syria, is the home of resistance, we have resisted the west time and time again and like the big bad principal America developed a grudge, a sense of hatred towards the country. Maybe we have learnt how to say yes, learnt to assimilate ourselves into the beliefs of society rather, than to explore our own ideas- political or not. At school we are all expected to look the same, dress the same and to a certain extent told to think and behave the same. So how can we doubt that as we grow older that the submissive button in our brains wouldn't go off every once in a while? When we are bombarded with lies and war propaganda, how can we seriously doubt that we have become a society of indoctrination and brainwashing? This rule however does not apply to all, but people often believe what the world tells them. The world says "Al-Assad is a tyrant" and fabricated footage is shown on television and "experts" pretend they care when truly it is a game of vested interest that people sadly believe. This generation is one of information- do not conform to the government, to the leaders or to the media. Learn to find out the truth or find two sides of the story and decide based on INFORMATION not based on LIES spread by the media and by our Governments'. The truth is that Syria is not only the Middle East's only chance, but the entire world's. We have resisted since Turkish occupation and during french occupation. When they created a Western State (Israel) in the middle of an Arabic world we continued to say no, now America wants our natural resources and the world must say no.

Red Cross workers abducted!!

The aid workers - six Red Cross staff and a SARC volunteer - were "abducted this morning by unidentified armed men near Sareqeb," the ICRC said in a statement.

"We call for the immediate and unconditional release of the seven colleagues," said Magne Barth, head of the ICRC's Syria delegation.

Clearly a terrorist faction group has kidnapped the impartial humanitarian workers, this is such a low and disgusting thing to stoop to! These people are innocent and have nothing to do with what's happening in Syria. But no group has claimed responsibility for the kidnapping. "The convoy, which was on its way back to Damascus, was clearly marked with the ICRC emblem, which is not a religious symbol," an ICRC representative said. But the group was travelling in a rebel occupied area and that is all that is known. Kidnapping has become an increasing problem in Syria, with journalists and aid workers frequently targeted in rebel-held parts of the country, largely in the north.

Last month a German aid worker held for almost four months escaped his kidnappers in Idlib, just like his two colleagues who managed to flee in July, according to their aid group Gruenhelme. Yet people believe these rebels are legitimate opposition for syrian government? How can we condone kidnapping, be heading, cannibalism and racism!

Russia demands explanation

Putin has demanded an explanation from holland after his diplomat was beaten and detained by uninformed men who bombarded his flat and attacked him. Putin said "we are waiting for an explanation, an apology and also punishment for those responsible." The Hague police force spokeswoman released a statement "the man is fine. He is not in hospital." She also said "they [police] said they had received a call from the neighbours regarding mistreatment of the children in the apartment" however this has not been proven, and the diplomat was not treated with the respect any human should receive. The diplomat also stated that they had no warrant for his arrest and it was unlawful, many people agree with this statement.

In Russia, foreign minister Lavrov demanded the Dutch ambassador to account for the incident, however on Tuesday the ambassador left the ministry without commenting. This has created even more tension between both countries especially after the detention of green peace protesters had already ignited fire within both countries. However Russia slammed this saying “Over the last year-and-a-half the Russian side made repeated attempts to contact their Dutch counterparts to intervene in the vessel’s illegal activities"Russian Foreign Ministry deputy head Aleksey Meshkov told RIA Novosti on Saturday. 

Putin has demanded an apology today by 6:00 Russian time. It will be interesting to see if the apology will be issued or not. And whether tensions will diffuse or destroy the relationship of these two countries.
