Aljazeera: the farce
This has become one big joke: Aljazeera Arabic. It is really now lower than Al-Arabiyya (the news station of King Fahd's brother-in-law). I can't watch the news cast anymore because there is no news cast. Just propaganda broadcast. Woke up early today and turned in the TV, and the channel was laboring with great effort to make Syria the top non-stop story but they did not have much materials. So they opened the phone lines and various people would call. And I find this new propaganda ploy: Aljazeera refers to "reports" and "videos" on Syrian opposition websites, and then you go to (Saudi and Hariri-funded or linked) websites, and you find references to "Aljazeera reports" when Aljazeera had no reports but mere references to Syrian opposition websites.
What a joke. Who would have thought that this would have happened to Aljazeera (Arabic). C-Span has a daily call-in show: imagine if that show becomes the news broadcast of C-Span. One guy was interviewed and he talked about various protests. The anchor asked him for more and for videos: the guy said: Sure. I will do that soon, but I have been busy. Aljazeera news is now a comedic Syrian serial.
Conscript Taleb, policeman Yaseen belie news on being killed by fellow security members
IDLEB- No sooner do the fabrications and false stories about alleged defections happening in the Syrian army appear on some tendentious satellite channels than they are exposed by the reality of what is truly happening in Syria which is targeted by a ferocious conspiracy.
After news on their being allegedly killed at the hands of their fellow security members for refusing to carry out military instructions appeared on some channels involved in the conspiracy, Conscript Tharwat Turki Taleb and Policeman Abdul-Rahman Yaseen, speak to the Syrian TV to belie the false news.
"My father called and told me that my name was mentioned on a satellite channel as a martyr," said Taleb who was born in Harbanoush village in Idleb in 1988, stressing that the news about his death are completely false and he is alive and well.
Taleb's father told the Syrian TV that he called his son on Thursday evening to where he is doing military service and told him about his death news which he knew about through a colleague of his son who had head the news on Orient channel that Taleb was killed at the hands of security members because he had not carry out military instructions.
One of the conscript's uncles said they will bring a lawsuit against the channel which reported the false news.
"Orient TV broadcast the news of my martyrdom and I call for taking legal action against this channel because of the panic it caused my family and relatives," said Policeman Abdul-Rahman Yaseen in his talk to the Syrian TV.
"We were surprised at the news about the death of my nephew and conscript Taleb, who is from our village," said Yaseen's uncle, demanding legal action to be taken against this tendentious channel.
