إعتصام جديد في عوكر: الربيع الأميركي لن يمر من دمشق وحتما ليس من بيروت
Read this story in English
تجمع عدد من النشطاء عصر السبت أمام السفارة الأميركية في عوكر في خطوة تكررت لليوم الثاني على التوالي رفضا للتدخل العسكري الأميركي المحتمل في سوريا.
وأفادت قنة الـ"MTV" أن التجمع كناية عن مجموعة "من المثقفين والمدونين والصحافيين أمام السفارة"، وذلك بعد أن نظم شباب من قوى 8 آذار الجمعة تجمعا مماثلا.
وقال الناشط علي طالب في كلمة باسم التجمع "نرفض أي عدوان يمس السيادة أو أي شبر من الأراضي العربية العزيزة أمس بغداد وليبيا".
ورأى أن "مدينة الياسمين تستعد للموت على أيدي من لا يستحقون الحياة" قائلا "سوريا منطلق المقاومة والعروبة في خطر".
ولفت طالب إلى أن "سوريا لا تريد سلاحا ولا قرارا دوليا لأننا نحن وهي عشنا قرارات الأمم التي علمتنا أن الحق يؤخذ وليس هبة".
كذلك أشار إلى ان "سوريا لا تريد من يحميها هي من حمت العرب طويلا وتريد عربا يقفون معها لا عربا يستجلبون الأجنبي لتدميرها ولا نريد جامعة (عربية) تشرد تصدير جهاديين من القوقاز".
وإذ شدد طالب على أن "الربيع الأميركي لن يمر من دمشق وحتما ليس من بيروت" قال "النفط وإن صنع أبراجا وأموالا فهو أعجز من أن يبني هوية لكن فلسطين والعروبة لا يمكن تعويضها إذا ذهبت".
وختم طالب قائلا "إن سوريا أمانة ولا يصلح لفلسطين أن تتيتم".
والتجمع الذي جرى وسط تدابير أمنية علت فيه هتافات "بالروح بالدم نفديك يا بشار" وحمل المشاركون الأعلام اللبنانية والسورية.
وكان قد طالب حوالى 200 معتصم بالقرب من السفارة الجمعة الولايات المتحدة بالتراجع عن نيتها ضرب سوريا مؤكدين أن مثل هذه الخطوة ستؤدي إلى "انهيار" أطماع الأميركيين.
وكان قد نصحت وزارة الخارجية الاميركية كل الاميركيين بتجنب التوجه الى لبنان وارجاء اي رحلة غير ضرورية الى تركيا، مشيرة الى اسباب امنية وخطر حدوث اعمال عنف في ظل تشاور الادارة الاميركية مع الكونغرس حول احتمال توجيه ضربة عسكرية الى سوريا.

Bunch of losers. Assadists have created problems and financed wars and bombs and milicias in the Levant for 40 years. You have no idea on how much the whole levant stands to gain if Assad falls.
As for the takfiris, we can beat them. Stop being motivated by takfiri fears.

no baker. I dont intend to fight them in syria. I intend to defend lebanon. takfiris represent 0.01% of the lebanese population. We have a democratic system with everyone having their rights. They therefore has no reason to exist and no popular base. We can build a strong intelligence infrastructure and beat those takfiri thugs. We were able to kick israel out. We kicked syria out. We kicked PLO out. We can kick takfiris.
We built a strong central bank, a strong national airline, a strong CDR, we can build strong institutions and defend ourselves.

Takfiris no you can not beat. its a culture. A culture which can recruits 50% of Lebanese in 10 seconds. All you need is an Allah Wakbar from a clerk to convert suit-dressed guys to Takfiris. Look at what happened in Egypt. 2011 revolution: No Takfiries presence or Muslim brotherhood. 3 months after, 50% of population were Muslim brotherhood. Its a cancer started in Saudi Arabia and should be confronted there.

they are not a culture but a result of despair with no other way to turn to.....who else would blow himself up unless GOD is his only recourse on this earth?

its funny how people find an execuse and justification for someone blow self up. read this comment below. Despair???? DEspair what you kill yourself and others? you need help man, you do

Bustany -as usual you know nothing. The Muslim Brotherhood DID NOT START in Saudi Arabia (It started in Egypt with a strong presence in Syria). The Royals in Saudi Arabia has always been uneasy about the brotherhood. A case in point their support for the ouster of Mursi in Egypt.

hb9z is totally correct but bustany is a typical ignorant you meet among everywhere. It is their culture. They are evil..... They forget about the fact the overwhelming majority of Lebanese stood with the Lebanese army in its fight against the takfiris in Nahr Al Bared. They forget that the majority of soldiers killed in Nahr Al Bared fighting the takfiris were Sunni. They forget that when Lebanese army units were pinned down in Tripoli, it was local residents who came to their help. It is easier to be a bigot when you are supporting a monster that is slaughtering the Syrian people.

baker, ASSad could have changed this from the beginning, but he basically invited the takfiris, jihadists and other radicals especially when it looked like it was going to be a ahia/sunni fight. Give extra props to hizb iran and iran for promoting that.

nahr el bared was dealt with by a faction of the lebanese army....looks like u have a hole in your memory or may be u only remember what u want......

FT - May be they are not Jaratheem but I wonder what you would call someone holding up the picture of a mass murderer. Alsi banima3roof does have a point: "how nice it is that they can freely demonstrate in front of a western embassy while lebanese cannot demonstrate in front of syrian or iranian embassy as you would get shot and killed!"

God Bless the "spontaneous", "natural", and "sincere" popular movements that stem from the will of the millions that we see demonstrate outside the embassy of the United Satanic States of America. These genuine people sacrifice their weekends, jobs, and livelihoods in order to let their voices be heard in rejecting this aggression against one of the purest forms of democracy and civilization. These people, contrary to common belief, are not paid and are acting of their own volition. They set an example of how we the lebanese have reached an advance stage of democracy that will be taught for generations to come.

Go protest in Syria and Iran, Not In Lebanon. Oh Wait, I forgot people who attempt to practice this peaceful basic rights are squashed and exterminated in those countries !! We have enough internal filth and degenerates, no need for more. Time for RAID

Syria did a lot of baf things to lebanon within the years of occupation....why ppl r you defending syria.....obama hit hard please

Don't they have families in Michigan? Shame on USA it's not deporting all this garbage

My Shia brother rbaker: Don't worry about our metn from the takfiris. Worry about your Dahiyeh and Bekaa. Are you not worried about Saida, Beirut, Akkar or you are here just to incite your sectarian rhetoric.

"Amrika al Shaytan al Akbar". Right. Because it was America that responded to peaceful protests in Daraa with a rain of bullets. Brainwashed hypocrites...

There was also peaceful protestors in Egypt 2011 guess what? turn out it was a conspiracy by USA to install Muslim Brotherhood government in Egypt. These naive thinking has to stop. God Bless your intention!

Those who say "Amirka l shayTan l akbar" should stop using all the American technologies and other things the American civilization brought to us.

Long live Obama and Hollande! Candidates for Sainthood! Let them kill as many baath , basij, and Hizb terrorists as they can!

After all the destruction that the Assad's have brought to Lebanon, it is disgusting to see anyone holding up his picture and defending that murderer.

It's a pity they can't illuminate this threat with their effective and proven method of sending an explosive laden car to deal with this matter. It's hard to have to resort to peaceful means of persuading others.
