   [Syrian Arab Republic] Information Minister: Syria is Moving Towards   
   Overcoming Crisis and *Defeating* [World Tyrant/NATO] Aggression    
      
      
      
   ===================================================   
      
      
   Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi affirmed that Syria as a country, state   
   and people is moving towards overcoming the crisis and *defeating* the   
   aggressions against it,    
      
      
   stressing that most of what is being said in the unprecedented media   
   escalation campaign against Syria is baseless and untrue.    
      
      
   In an open meeting with representatives and correspondents of Arab and foreign   
   mass media and news agencies accredited in Syria on Sunday, al-Zoubi said that   
   Syria will be *victorious* over its enemies,    
      
      
   noting that the national scene in Syria is witnessing considerable political   
   activity among *national* forces, hoping that this will be productive and   
   positive.    
      
      
   He pointed out that there are terrorist groups and armed gangs that fall under   
   the banner of Jabhet an-Nusra and its affiliates, all of them being a part of   
   [The World Tyrant's] Al Qaeda and are trained and prepared by well-known sides   
   that    
      
   financed,    
      
   instigated,    
      
   established training camps, and    
      
   put various tools at the service of terrorists.    
      
      
   Al-Zoubi said that Russia's position towards Syria is firm and based on a   
   series of rules including respecting Syria's sovereignty, and that Russia   
   isn't talking about anyone leaving or ballots; rather it works to reach a   
   political solution through    
   dialogue and a *purely-Syrian* democratic and national political process.    
      
   He stressed that Russia's position hasn't changed, and any bets on such a   
   change are mere dreams.    
      
   Al-Zoubi affirmed that neither Russia nor any one put pressure on Syria and   
   the Syrian political resolution regarding all political matters is a pure   
   sovereign decision.    
      
   Regarding the plan of UN Envoy to Syria Lakhdar Ibrahimi which is *a modified   
   version* of the Geneva statement which stipulates for a transitional   
   government approved by the government and the opposition, the Minister said   
   that judgment shouldn't be    
   passed on the results of his visit in advance, pointing out that there are   
   some questions the Syrian government raised about the statement and are   
   awaiting clarification.    
      
   Al-Zoubi added that *national* dialogue is a dialogue among the Syrians and   
   with those who believe in dialogue as a *prelude* to a political process,    
      
      
   while those who rejected dialogue and called for taking up arms are in fact   
   *afraid* of the results of this dialogue.    
      
      
   He stressed that if the Doha coalition or any other such group were brave   
   [enough] to enter an open political process without elimination [restrictions]   
   and if they had confidence in possessing a share of the ballots, then they   
   wouldn't have refrained    
   from dialogue.    
      
   The Minister said that the Syrians who throw down their weapons and put   
   themselves at the disposal of the law will be treated in a specific way   
   because they're Syrians,    
      
      
   while the foreign gunmen and those belonging to Jabhet al-Nusra and its other   
   [World Tyrant] Al Qaeda affiliates and those who committed acts leading to the   
   death of Syrians or the destruction of infrastructure will be punished   
   according to the laws if    
   arrested.    
      
      
   Al-Zoubi went on to stress that the Syrian Arab Army will continue to confront   
   these terrorists across the country as per its constitutional, national and   
   political authorities, and that the Syrians support it in the fight against   
   terrorism,    
      
      
   adding that is no such thing as positive or negative, acceptable of   
   unacceptable terrorism, and whoever commits a terrorist act is a terrorist,   
   regardless of his nationality, identity, religions, sect or party affiliation.    
      
      
   He stressed that the Syrian Arab Army is *not* a side in the confrontation;   
   rather it represents the homeland and people and is confronting terrorism as   
   per the international laws and [the] resolution issued after 9/11, according   
   to which *certain    
   governments and figures in neighboring countries* should be held accountable   
   by the Security Council according to Resolution No. 1373 which considers   
   *anyone* who finances, conspires, facilitates or harbors terrorists subject to   
   counter-terrorism laws.    
      
   On the government's position towards the opposition that doesn't call for   
   forign military intervention, al-Zoubi said that the *minimum* of patriotism   
   requires the rejection of foreign military intervention, with the *maximum*   
   being the martyrs who are    
   sacrificing their lives, stressing that patriotism demands rejecting outside   
   dictations and *all* forms of interference, and denouncing terrorism.    
      
   The Minister said that the Syrian identity is a whole that cannot be claimed   
   by anyone as being their exclusive property then ask to be made a hero and a   
   political leader, adding that those who reject foreign intervention must tell   
   the Arab League *which    
   they meet* to lift the sanctions imposed on Syrians and tell Qatar, Turkey,   
   France and others to cease sending weapons and [to] stop training terrorists   
   and smuggling them into Syria.    
      
   He stressed that while some guests may attend national dialogue as   
   ambassadors, but *the dialogue itself* will be among Syrians only, reiterating   
   that all decisions will be made by the Syrians themselves and that no-one will   
   be allowed to interfere in it,   
    but if they have ideas or suggestions then they're welcome to propose them.    
      
   Al-Zoubi addressed those...political forces and governments that reject   
   dialogue, telling them that time is growing short and that they should move to   
   political action and forget about military action and dreams of toppling the   
   government, the abdication    
   of the president, and occupying the capital and any such talk, adding that   
   those who promote such ideas are misleading.    
      
   Regarding the Iranian proposition to resolve the crisis, the Minister said   
   that all Syria's friends --be they Iranians, Russians or Chinese-- have a   
   right and a duty to present suggestions and initiatives, and that their   
   positions towards Syria are most    
   welcome.    
      
   On claims by some opposition groups and media sources that gunmen seized large   
   areas [of Syria], al-Zoubi said that the terrorists and Jabhet al-Nusra   
   operate using guerilla tactics and cannot hold on to any location they attack,    
      
      
   so any talks of controlling areas is untrue, adding that if such claims were   
   true, why don't the Istanbul council or the Doha coalition come and establish   
   their projects in the areas they claim to control?
