remorsecode:paxmachina:Assad’s security forces are currently shelling oil pipelines in Homs.via:@Samsomhoms 6:58 PM - 20 Feb 12 via webIt’s a battle of freedom going on in Syria. I am a little soldier in it from the living heart of Syria, Homs .I’m sorry, I really didn’t want to bring up the whole Syria issue again but it is unbelievable that people will blindly reblog anything they say because of their utterly baseless bias against Assad. Nobody steps back for even just half a fraction of a second and reflects. You people will do absolutely anything all in the name of yay revolution woo free syria peace for everyone! What an unbelievable joke. Anyway, rant aside my point is;Why in God’s name would any sane ruler bomb their own countries oil pipelines which actually fuels their own economy and PERSONAL WEALTH AND GREED which is what dictators are notorious for??Just stop being so damn ignorant for once and think about things a little more instead of reblogging like a robot.To send a message. Autocratic leaders will do most anything to keep their power when they feel threatened. And sure, I suppose I’m biased against Assad. I am aware of my inclination to side with rebels against autocratic rulers in any situation. But that is not a particular bias against Assad. I believe in the right to self determination for all nations and that includes the Syrian people. If they take to arms against a government that has been abusing them for decades, then I will support them. -- source link
