Syria: The hidden massacre — RT Op-Edge

Très très important selon moi ! Le récit, hors narrative - ou bien selon la narrative russe - du début des événements en Syrie (mars/avril 2011), avec en particulier les attaques contre l’armée, encore hors-jeu à cette époque. Attaques destinées à provoquer la militarisation du conflit.
J’en tire cet extrait écrit par le père Frans (qui a fini par être liquidé à Homs) : Syrian-based Father Frans van der Lugt was the Dutch priest murdered by a gunman in Homs just a few weeks ago. His involvement in reconciliation and peace activities never stopped him from lobbing criticisms at both sides in this conflict. But in the first year of the crisis, he penned some remarkable observations about the violence – this one in January 2012:
“From the start the protest movements were not purely peaceful. From the start I saw armed demonstrators marching along in the protests, who began to shoot at the police first. Very often the violence of the security forces has been a reaction to the brutal violence of the armed rebels.”
In September 2011 he wrote: “From the start there has been the problem of the armed groups, which are also part of the opposition…The opposition of the street is much stronger than any other opposition. And this opposition is armed and frequently employs brutality and violence, only in order then to blame the government.”

(Incidemment, en tant que témoin de l’époque, cela confirme ma vision de ce qui s’est passé alors.)
