Bashar al-Assad

You in Lebanon, your power is no match to Israel. Israel, militarily, is more powerful than you and maybe it is more powerful than all the Arab countries, or most of them.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Country Match Military Powerful
Did the President order anyone to kill civilians, did he order the destruction, did he order supporting terrorism in his country? Of course not.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Country Order President
Almost all countries have natural dividing lines, and when ethnic and religious partition occurs in one country, it’ll soon happen elsewhere.

Country Lines Religious
We don’t discuss this issue [ chemical weapons ] in public because we never said that we have it, and we never said that we don’t have it. It’s a Syrian issue ; it’s a military issue we never discuss in public with anyone.

Betrayed Jesus Principles
The American officials should learn to deal with reality. Why did the United States fail in most of its wars ? Because it always based its wars on the wrong information. So, whether they believe or not, this is not reality.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Believe Reality War
We don’t discuss this issue [conversations with Russia] as a government, but we discuss the repercussions, which is more important because sometimes repercussions could be more destroying than the strike itself.

Country Government Issues
When our interests matched, the Americans have been good to us, and when the interests differed, they wanted us to mold ourselves to them, which we refused.

We learned that lesson very well, especially in the eighties, that terrorists cannot be used as a political card, you cannot put it in your pocket, because it’s like a scorpion; it will bite you someday.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Terrorists have been supported by tens of foreign countries, so Syria alone wouldn’t be able to face this kind of war without the help of its friends.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

When you use an armament, you use it to defend the civilians. You kill terrorists in order to defend civilians. That’s the natural role of any army in the world.

Anyone who’s not military knows this fact. Why do you use chemical weapons while you’re advancing ?
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Military Use Weapons
The fact that there are people who criticize me doesn’t mean that people hate me.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

My country and me, we are part of this region, we’re not separated. We cannot discuss it as Syria or as me ; it should be as part, as a whole, as comprehensive. That’s how we have to look at it.
