French professor: Al-Assad to win against the west

Just because it was a remark about the victory of President Bashar Al-Assad of Syria, the world mass media which claims neutralism and credibility fully brushed aside the publication of such news.

The remark summarized what is going on in Syria in one statement, which has amazed the interviewer and audiences as well.

“Now, it is turned into a personal revenge. The Arab and world leaders seek only to subjugate Al-Assad’s pride,”said the French professor Olivier Roy in a recent interview with the “France 24” channel.

These words followed the interviewer’s question: “why do you talk about confrontation with Al-Assad not with Syria?”

From prof. Roy’s viewpoint, the UN Security Council which held unrelenting Arab-backed sessions on Syria for months has failed to take a decision of direct confrontation with Mr. Al-Assad, while a resolution to launch a war on Afghanistan was endorsed by the UNSC in just two hours and a half.

“I’m a witness…I am not talking about what is right and what is wrong…The UNSC hopes to reach a decision that restores these states’ prestige after their open challenge to Al-Assad,”

He affirmed that President Al-Assad will be the first Arab leader to win against the West. “There is no doubt about this, Bashar Al-Assad will be the first Arab leader who will win against the West.” he said

Prof. Roy, born in 1949, is Professor of Social and Political Theory at the European University Institute.He received an “Agrégation de Philosophie” and a Ph.D. in Political Sciences.
