With the arrival of the Syrian so-called ” revolution ” in 2011 and the start of terrorists flow into Syria. The armed terrorist groups have tried to disseminate sedition among Syria’s different components. The terrorists targeted all of Syria, particularly the minorities, including the Christians, the alawites, the Druze , and the Ismailies and secular Sunnis. The Syrian ”revolution ” from the beginning failed to offer assurances to these minorities . Sitting in European capitals , the opposition offered the minorities honeyed words but on the ground , the picture was completely different .Minorities were targeted. The Druze in Jaramanah ,the Christians in Ma’loula and the Alawites in their coastal region, and every open-minded Syrian, who doesn’t believe in their blasphemy.
In August the Alawites were attacked in the places they had considered as the safest-their mountainous villages! It was as if all their nightmares had returned. The younger generations were able to identify the truth of what happened to their ancestors for they saw a repeat of it themselves. Their villages were raided, their houses burned, their men killed and their women raped before the Syrian hero Army arrived and the villages were liberated from the armed terrorist groups.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights-apparently Observatory for only some Syrians and not all- hardly dwelled on what had happened and what was even more surprising was that the media in Syria didn’t give these massacres their due. It was as if they were too ashamed to talk of what they had thought would never happen again. No serious attempt was made to publicize these massacres and they were hardly mentioned in Western media. No official complaint was made against the “Syrian National Coalition” which harbors these armed groups and no request for an official investigation was made either . It was Ethnic cleansing carried out with the blessing of the West and the funding of Gulf countries and Saudi!
Nevertheless, the Syrians today are standing like one person in the face of the Takfiri terrorist groups, which failed to sow sedition among the members of the one Syrian family. The Syrians are but Syrians and consider themselves as all targeted by the cancerous cannibals, backed and mushroomed by more than 80 countries worldwide.
