According to some pro Palestinian here, he is not a devil at all, he is the savior from Damascus.. Blahhhhhhhhh
Exactly, you are correct, who counted the votes? There are no news you can trust: who counted the votes? Use your knowledge, analyze the news, even propaganda can be analyzed for extracting the truth. For example, if RT reports about an important event and CNN does not, CNN does it for a reason and this is a news. You have to watch different channels and be selective after you learn something from what and how had been reported. This is both a scientific approach and intuition. RT is less controlled by the establishment. American corporate channels are dumb and dull.
I remember the west stupid politicians forecasting ( or maybe predictions ) 3 years ago when they said that Assad would fall 3 months later and after 3 months they said:" OK 3 months was a bit soon, 6 months is imminent! .... . and now after 3 years nothing happened for Assad as we said in Iran 3 years ago. And we want to say anther thing to the west stupid politicians: Assad will be in power for at least 7 years in Syria, because it is the Syrians people request. But I have a surprise for Europeans. 50 Al-Qaeda soldiders are coming back to Austria from 100 Austrian fighters who fought for Alqaeda in these 3 years. Others will return to Europe very soon. Maximum one year. Make you ready to welcome your soldiers. You know they are pathetic . Try not to make them angry! They don't have brain!
This election signifies a step in the right direction for Syria. I won't go as far as to say that it was a free and fair election, but the foreign observers (Who said it was a free, fair and transparent election) give me reason to believe that the election was somewhat legitimate.
If you think that an election where all the candidates had to be approved by the Supreme Constitutional Court who were all appointed directly by Assad which saw and nearly 75% turnout in which nearly 90% voted for the same candidate was legitimate then I have a bridge in Brooklyn you maybe interested in purchasing.
The foreign observers were all from Syrian allies who themselves are authoritarian, totalitarian, and theocratic regimes EG North Korea, Iran, and Russia: Observers from countries allied to the regime - North Korea, Iran and Russia - supervised the election, while a security plan was reportedly put in place in Syrian cities to prevent possible attacks against voters and polling stations. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middl...ead-polls-farcical-vote-2014632482229680.html
I was not aware that Syria had 30 countries allied with them. I was also unaware that Brazil is an authoritarian, totalitarian, theocratic regime (Since Brazil was one of the observers).
Who from Brazil? Name these 30 countries and the people and group that monitored the election, because not a single monitor from the EU, or U.S. were allowed in, please provide asource for your assertions.
Houndreds are being killed each month in Syria. Women are brutally raped. Children have no food. People are driven out from their houses by the tens of thousands each month. And Israel build 4 houses in the West bank. Guess what do we see everyday on front head news ??
Indian Delegation to monitor Syria election in June | Kohram.in The link above mentions Brazil, India, Russia, China, South Africa, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, Bolivia, Ecuador and Canada. I have no idea how reliable Kohram is, but I am getting these links from a the Wikipedia page for the Syrian presidential election. Assad's Win Is Assured, but Limits Are Exposed | New York Times The link above mentions Brazil, Zimbabwe, Iran, Russia and North Korea by name, however mentiones "others" (The Kohram link also did).
Who are these monitors? What is their affiliation exactly? The source for the Indian delegation says right in the beginning of the first link is a "Palestinian activist", that does not sound like a neutral international observer to me sir.
