Russia urged Syrian compliance. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said:
"We constantly work with the Syrian leadership calling on it to fully cooperate with observers from the Arab League and to create work condition that are as comfortable and free as possible."
Expect future monitor reports to comply with Washington's wishes. On December 31, Haaretz said Arab League observers "called on the government to remove 'immediately' snipers from rooftops of buildings."
According to a delegation source:
"The observers saw the snipers with their own eyes in Douma," a town on the outskirts of Damascus. In fact, insurgents positioned on rooftops and elsewhere are responsible for much violence. They're killing civilians and security forces.
Expect Arab League monitors to report otherwise. If not Al-Dabi, then others sent to say what Washington wants to hear. Al-Dabi will be discredited or ignored. Western media scoundrels will regurgitate propaganda. When America goes to war or plans it, pack journalism follows in lockstep.
A Final Comment
Increasing Syrian destabilization looms. Expect intervention to follow, perhaps a blockade or war like against Libya. On December 27, the Mossad-connected DEBKAfile said Qatar was involved in building a "Sunni intervention force of Libyan, Iraqi terrorists against Assad."
Numbering 2,500, they include 1,000 Islamic Fighting Group Libya (IFGL) Al Qaeda-linked insurgents. In Libya, Qatar actively aided NATO, providing weapons, training and communications, linking insurgents with NATO forces. Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan and Egypt were also involved. At least the Saudis, Jordanians, Turks, Israelis, and Lebanon's Hariri March 14 alliance are involved in Syria.
