Syria MP Khaled Abboud to Al-Manar Website:
Conspiracy Reached Dead-End!

Greetings to Our Patriarch… Beshara Rahi!
US at Side of Armed Gangs against Army
Syrians Understood Conspiracy, Toppled It
Syrians Delivered Messages to US Ambassador
Americans Must Return to Their Conscience
Lebanon at Its Best Times, alongside Syria
Patriarch Rahi at One Trench with Resistance
Some Defeated Lebanese Seek to Be Ride

Syrian Member of Parliament Khaled Abboud declared that the statements made by President Bashar Assad, in which he said that the crisis has ended and that the Syrian cities started to restore stability, were realistic, and emphasized that Syrians have actually dismantled the scene and overthrew the conspiracy targeting them. He pointed out that the open war against Syria reached a dead-end.

In an exclusive interview with Al-Manar Website, Abboud spoke of a series of messages delivered by the Syrians to the Americans, including US ambassador to Damascus Robert Ford, to stop meddling in Syrian affairs. He said the Syrian accusations to American officials of encouraging violence against the army exceed denunciation to be a real warning.

While noting that Lebanon was an independent and mature entity, he expressed belief that the political map of Lebanon was today at its best times despite the existence of some remarks, and criticized at the same time those he called “fugitive constituents” who were internally defeated, in reference to former Prime Minister Saad Hariri.

Abboud hailed Maronite Patriarch Beshara Rahi’s latest positions, noting that the patriarch became at the same trench with the Resistance, and thus turned to be the patriarch of Lebanese and Syrian people altogether.

CONSPIRACY ENDED…
Syrian MP Khaled Abboud told Al-Manar Website that the statements made by President Bashar Assad in which he said that the crisis has ended and that the Syrian cities started to restore stability were realistic. He pointed to the defense strategy set by the Syrians to deal with the issue, a strategy based on dismantling the scene by understanding all its aspects. He noted that it was not a secret anymore that the United States is standing at the side of armed gangs against the security forces and the army.

Abboud reiterated that there was an open war against Syria. “Otherwise, there would be no explanation for this political and media aggression, the decisions to besiege Syria at all levels and the clear threats against Syrian stability,” he said.

He declared that the Syrian scene was dismantled, and noted that the conspiracy has reached a dead-end after Syrians got rid of the violence acts.

MORE THAN DENUNCIATION…
Answering a question about the incident of throwing US ambassador with stones and tomatoes, Abboud said this incident was not isolated, and noted that this ambassador was targeted by the Syrian people because of his inciting role against the Syrian leadership, since the beginning of the crisis. While refusing to either legitimizing or condemning this aggression, he noted that there was an open space for people at legal and ethical levels to do whatever they think to be right.

Syrian demonstrators threw US ambassador Robert Ford and other US diplomats on Thursday with stones and tomatoes as they were visiting an opposition figure in Damascus. It was the second attack on US diplomats since the protests erupted in Syria in March. In July, following a visit by Ford to the city of Hama, Syrian protesters attacked the US embassy compound in Damascus.

Abboud spoke of a series of messages delivered by Syrians through this kind of acts. “Syrians are telling the Americans to stop meddling in their own affairs. They are telling them that, even if there was a conflict among Syrians, Americans have nothing to do with it. Syrians have understood the conspiracy. Thus, Americans and Europeans must return to their conscience and be assured that the Syrian leadership will remain solid.”

He noted that the accusations launched by an official source within the Syrian Foreign Ministry to American officials of encouraging violence against the army exceed denunciation to be a real warning. “It is a strong message to Americans. It is a direct accusation and a condemnation message. But it is also a clear warning.”

LEBANON AT ITS BEST TIMES
Commenting on the Lebanese stances from the Syrian crisis, Abboud said that the Lebanese entity was an independent and adult entity. “Lebanese are able to administer their affairs themselves. Lebanon is nowadays able to take decisions, and is stronger than ever,” he declared, as he noted that the political map for Lebanon, at both governmental and religious levels, was formed of solid forces committed to defend the region and its people, including the Syrian nation. He said that this map was at its best times, despite the presence of some remarks, given that Lebanese in general stand at the side of the Resistance and the government.

He highlighted that the meeting of Syrian President Bashar Assad with a number of Lebanese prominent figures comes in this framework. He criticized at the same time those he called the “fugitive constituents” who were internally defeated, in reference to former Prime Minister Saad Hariri. He said these sides will not be able to triumph, given that they are the exception.

PATRIARCH OF LEBANESE AND SYRIANS
To conclude, the Syrian MP hailed the latest statements made by Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi, and offered his greeting to this patriarch who became the patriarch of both Lebanese and Syrians at the same time. “When our nations are targeted, we see such people taking positive stances,” he said.

While noting that Patriarch Rahi’s stances were historic, he said that the visit made by the Syrian religious delegation came to confirm this national scene. He said that the patriarch proved to be at the same trench with the resistance.
