Al-Qaeda militants killed Syrian rebel commander - FSA spokesman

RT reports:

A senior figure of the rebel Free Syrian Army has been executed by Al-Qaeda-linked militants during negotiations. Multiplying conflicts between moderate and extremist rebels confronting President Assad might lead to an opposition split-up.  Supreme Military Council member Kamal Hamami, also known for his call-sign Abu Bassel al-Ladkani, was meeting with members of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in the Syrian port city of Latakia when he was murdered, FSA spokesman Qassem Saadeddine informed Reuters.   “The Islamic State phoned me saying that they killed Abu Bassel and that they will kill all of the Supreme Military Council,” Saadeddine said. “He met them to discuss battle plans.” (...)  "Nusra is now two Nusras. One that is pursuing Al-Qaeda's agenda of a greater Islamic nation, and another that is Syrian with a national agenda to help us fight Assad," a senior rebel commander with close ties to the Al-Nusra Front told Reuters.  "It is disintegrating from within," he added.

This is all excellent news, of course.  First, this clearly indicates that the Wahabi crazies have gone even "crazier": if they are shooting people during negotiations it is unlikely that they will have many people willing to negotiate with them.  Second, if they really plan to kill all of the Supreme Military Council this will force the latter to take action, if only to protect itself.  Third, if al-Nusra has really split into two factions, that means that the single most effective combat force on the side of the insurgency is disintegrating.  Forth,  these developments suggest that Western intelligence services are loosing control of the insurgency as they would never allow them to start killing each other.  Finally, and most importantly, this kind of development is a very strong indicator that the insurgency has major problems and that, in turn, shows that the much talked-about program to arm the insurgency is petering out like a wet firecracker.

Truly, this is excellent news.  Hopefully, the Wahabi crazies will continue killing each other while the FSA bonzes will return where they belong: to Virgina, USA.

Meet yet another charming Syrian "freedom fighter for democracy and progress"

I saw this video a few days ago but I hesitated to post it as it could be a fake, or a false flag, or a propaganda piece.  Now, since the Mail Online confirms it,  and even such a pro-FSA pro-CIA outfight light Human Rights Watch confirms it:

Peter Bouckaert of Human Rights Watch said that he had seen an original, unedited copy of the video and that Abu Sakkar's identity had been confirmed by rebel sources in Homs and by images of him in other videos wearing the same black jacket as in the latest clip and with the same rings on his fingers.

Finally, nobody, as far as I know, has denied it.  So I decided to post it now.

Rebel is believed to be Abu Sakkar, a founder of the rebel Farouq Brigade.  He is filmed cutting into the torso of a dead soldier and pulling organs out.  He rants: 'I swear we'll eat from your hearts and livers, you dogs of Bashar'. He then raises one of the organs to his mouth and takes a bite.

Wow!  Charming, isn't it?!  Even the Chechens did not engage in this kind of stuff, but the Syrian "freedom fighters" appeared to have reached a new level of murderous insanity.

I can just about imagine the hysterical squeals of the Western "human right defenders" if somebody on the government side would have been filmed committing such acts.  But since these guys are the "good guys" while Assad is a "evil dictator", such ghoulish cannibalism will have absolutely no impact on the stance of the various "Friends of Syria" and other CIA sponsored "non-governmental" organizations.

But the imagery, the symbolism, is good.  These murderous psychopaths are, indeed, trying o destroy the heart of Syria.  Figuratively and literally.

Insurgents in Syria burn a Shia mosque and an Armenian church

On YouTube one of their supporters also added this heartfelt message:

"Fuck bashar and his slut mother he destroyed all of syria with the help of kuffar shia irani pigs and russian communist atheist bastards but our mujahdeen bros will now rid syria of bashar bastard and we will have an islamic country where there will be no alchoal drugs and prostitutes everywhere it will be a islamic laws not wester laws u shia kuffar pigs time to pay now for killing thousands of sunni muslims ur god khomeni is in hell roting and u all pieces of scum will join him inshallah"

Here is another video where the same folks burn down an Armenian church:



I think that these videos, combined with the rather unambiguous message, make the future these insurgents plan for Syria pretty clear.
