Syrian President's Top Aide Assassinated

(IsraelNN.com) Syrian President Bashar Assad's top aide and adviser, General Mohammed Suleiman, was assassinated on Friday, according to Arab news sources.

Suleiman, who was also Syria's liaison officer to the Hizbullah terrorist organization in Lebanon, was shot and killed by an unidentified sniper in the Syrian port city of Tartous.

Syrian authorities tried unsuccessfully to prevent publication of the news. The country's Albawaba newspaper, which reported the incident, speculated that Israel might have been behind the killing.

Both Albawaba and the London-based Al-Hayat newspaper raised the issue of last February's assassination of Hizbullah second-in-command Imad Mughniyeh, who died in a car bombing in Damascus. Syria blamed Israel for the killing, but Jerusalem denied any involvement.

It’s actually identical to the Nazi salute. After the war many Arab armies employed escaped Nazis as military and police advisers. If I have it right, it’s the source of the salute. It’s being used also by Fatah and (maybe not any longer) the Egyptian army.

Some old videos of Arab Armies goose-stepping (or what came very close) made me think that there were some NAZI hand me downs in various training academies. At the time I thought “nah, just coincidence.” Your comment now makes a few things take on a different light.

I’ve never seen that photo. Is that real or Photoshopped?

It certainly could be.

I still find it outrageous that our government allows him to steal oxygen in Iraq.

We should have waxed his fat @ss years ago.

He and his Iranian masters are currently funneling in weapons, ammo, money and other supplies to subsequently fuel chaos in Iraq.

Upon closer look, it is obviously a phony. Too bad, since it represents the Islamofacist leadership and their minions well.

It’s also identical to the Roman salute, and to the salute American schoolchildren used during the Pledge of Allegiance before the ‘40s. History did not begin with WWII.

Palistinians:

Another Hezbollah shot:

PS... I encourage you to look up the 13th Waffen SS "Handschar" Division sometime before writing off Muslims and their Nazi salutes as "phony."

“We should have waxed his fat @ss years ago.”

I agree he should have been hunted down and blown away, long ago.

Always teed me off the way Maliki gave Mookie the benefit of the doubt; seems now that those good terms have expired, and the Shia troublemaker is permanently rooted in Iran.

Granted, but given the horrors of Nazi atrocities, it's not something that anyone should use today.

The Muslims in the Balkans were not only Nazi sympathizers, they also composed entire divisions of Waffen SS.

Lastly, why is "Mein Kampf" so popular among the mohammedans in Turkey?

Story 1

Story 2

Something tells me that the mosque people are not thinking of Roman centurions or American schoolkids when they strike that pose. The hatred in their eyes is very telling of what they truly feel.

Now call me crazy for my observations.

Well, this doesn't event reach to the level of the Bosnian-Serb Sniper (Sarajevo) - I doubt that you're even aware of the individual that I'm mentioning.
