If the American administration want to support Al-Qaeda – go ahead. That’s what we have to tell them, go ahead and support Al-Qaeda, but don’t talk about rebels and free Syrian army.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

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.

BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Army Country Strong
How could that army do that if it’s a family army or a sect army ? What about the rest of the country who support the government ? It’s not realistic, it doesn’t happen. Otherwise, the whole country will collapse.

Al-Qaeda has one ideology and they go back to the same leadership in Afghanistan or in Syria or in Iraq. That’s the question. You have tens of thousands of foreigners, that’s definitely correct. We are fighting them on the ground and we know this.

Hezbollah fighters are on the borders with Lebanon where the terrorists attacked them. On the borders with Lebanon, this is where Hezbollah retaliated, and this is where we have cooperation, and that’s good.

This war [in Syria] is going to support Al-Qaeda and the same people that killed Americans in the 11th of September.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Terrorism is a state of mind that on the one hand has to do with ignorance and, on the other hand, can be attributed to a feeling of desperation over the political situation, which at some point takes the form of revenge.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD
