We are dealing with treachery and threats, which accompanied the establishment of Israel.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

If you don’t win and the terrorists win, Syria wouldn’t exist anymore.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Israel has WMD, and it has to sign [chemical warfare agreement], and Israel is occupying our land, so that’s we talked about the Middle East, not Syria, not Israel ; it should be comprehensive.
