Syria Support Movement solidarity with the Syrian people

Military or Media War?
Four years of war in Syria have passed… and while it has changed many of the country’s features, the unchanged reality is that the Islamist extremist groups leave nobody in peace, enacting a policy similar to that of George W. Bush:
“You either pledge allegiance to us, or you’re with the infidels!”
The media supporting what they call the uprising in Syria, just like the extremists they support, never leave any community in peace!
Recently, they’ve focused on the Druze community day and night.
(Quoted from a report at ORIENT TV, a Saudi-funded TV):
“During a meeting with a large crowd of the Druze community, Sheik Al-Hinnawi said that counting on what used to be called the Syrian army, after the recent events, won’t be useful for the Druze people anymore”
In fact, the channel used archive footage of the Sheikh with the voice muted!
It failed to broadcast Al-Hinnawi’s speech! This is understandable! Because he said something else!
“We will keep maintaining the national unity, the unity of Syria, from Tal Kojak – in the northeast – to southern Daraa, and from the Mediterranean to the Iraqi border”
Moreover, some Western media called on Israel to meet its “moral duty” by creating a security zone in southern Syria!
This media campaign preceded an attack on Al-Thaala airport at the doorsteps of Sweida.
The Syrian government’s response wasn’t loud in the media, but rather it was decisive on the ground. The Syrian army, backed by volunteer resistance fighters, as well as the moral support of the locals, has severely defeated the aggressors.
However, the latter ones explained that they have cancelled the attack as a gesture of goodwill towards the Druze people.
Yes indeed! Al Nusra Front has already committed a goodwill gesture in Idlib, when they massacred 20 Druze people for not following the Front’s understanding of Islam!
But the reality that didn’t find its way to these media is that just behind the airport there are families living and taking care of their land
like Um Fadi who can see the airport from her window
UM FADI – a local from Al-Thaala village:
“Even if they besiege us or whatever they do, we are holding on to our land. We are able to earn our lives from our work, homes and land”
Such media didn’t forget to call on the Druze people to stop sending their sons to the army, but these images are much more credible.
