<snip>President Bashar al-Assad’s speech is a pride for every honest and free Arab, British MP said in a dialogue symposium in Damascus University yesterday.
Pressures which Syria is exposed to comes in the framework of the US-Zionist schemes to hegemony the region and size its treasures,” George Galloway added, stressing that no free Arab country can accept the aggression on Syria .
“ It is the time for all honest all over the world to stand by Syria to confront such pressures and deluding campaigns she is facing due to her principled national stances.” He noted.
Galloway criticized report of the UN investigation committee on assassination of former Lebanese Premier Rafik Hariri, saying: “ The report was prepared in advance as it was planned to and to the assassination crime by Syria ’s enemies.”
He also criticized those who call themselves as “ Syrian opposition” clarifying that the real national opposition is to stand by your country and not against it to serve own interests at the expense of the peoples blood.
“ The strong national unity and religious coexistence that Syria enjoys will be a well-fortified front in the face of all the greedy who work to draw a new map for the region through dividing it into small conflicted states easy to be controlled on the pretext of spreading democracy.” Galloway said.

For all those Galloway fans, please tell me who else has been talking like this recently: He also criticized those who call themselves as “ Syrian opposition” clarifying that the real national opposition is to stand by your country and not against it to serve own interests at the expense of the peoples blood.
