Koresponden Al Arabiya menceritakan perjalanan ke kawasan rintangan Syria . . .

TINJAUAN 1WC’sChannel 2012: (قناة العربية Al Arabiya Channel) Wartawan kanan Al Arabiya, Alia Ibrahim, baru pulang dari wilayah yang dikawal oleh Free Syrian Army (FSA). Dalam temu bual Jumaat, dia bercakap kepada Al Arabiya dalam bahasa Inggeris tentang perjalanan beliau untuk memenuhi Aram bertekad untuk berjuang manakala rejim Assad terus mengebom bandar-bandar mereka.

"Kami terpaksa menyeludup diri di dalam Syria. Kami terpaksa menyeberangi berjalan sempadan Turki, ia seperti berjalan kaki sejauh 4 kilometer," katanya.

"Bahagian yang sukar tentang untuk mendapatkan adalah kebanyakannya bahawa kampung ini dikawal oleh Free Syrian Army (FSA), jalan raya yang menghubungkan kampung mereka kepada setiap bandar-bandar dan tidak antara satu sama lain. Yang bermaksud kita terpaksa mengambil jalan yang sangat kecil di antara kampung-kampung ini untuk mengelakkan sebarang pusat pemeriksaan oleh tentera Assad. Itu adalah salah satu sebahagian daripada kesukaran."

"Bahagian lain adalah bahawa selalu ada kapal terbang dan sentiasa bomkan tempat-tempat ini. Malah daratan adalah di bawah kawalan FSA, udara tidak," katanya. Rakyat di kawasan itu berasa bersendirian terhadap bom rejim Assad, katanya. Pekan Binish dibom selepas krew kiri beliau dan pada hari ke-3 mereka mereka mengdiami perkampungan Atareb, yang telah musnah tetapi terus bertahan pengeboman.

Dia menghadapi pelbagai puak Free Syrian Army (FSA), yang mempunyai ideologi yang berbeza dan pelbagai peringkat latihan, tetapi tidak melihat apa-apa jenis struktur arahan. "Apabila ada pertempuran sebenar, semua kumpulan menjadi satu entiti. Terdapat sebuah minoriti kumpulan kecil adalah pada semua di bawah kawalan Free Syrian Army (FSA). Tetapi apa yang berlaku adalah orang-orang ini datang bersama-sama adalah berjuang dan mereka menjadi satu kumpulan, walaupun jika setiap hari mereka masing-masing berkumpul di tempat yang berbeza dan mempunyai ibu pejabat yang berbeza dan mempunyai tahap yang berbeza walaupun religiousity dan tahap yang berbeza pemikiran ideologi, "katanya.

Ditanya sama ada beliau menghadapi sebarang pejuang asing, katanya ahli Free Syrian Army (FSA) telah memberitahu beliau segelintir dari negara-negara lain Arab dan Chechnya, tetapi tidak bertemu dengan mereka. "Apabila saya meminta orang ramai tentang perkara ini, mereka berkata mereka pergi dari negara ke negara lain di mana terdapat 'jihad,'" katanya.

Tetapi di tengah-tengah kemusnahan, katanya, terdapat "konsensus umum" bahawa tidak ada orang lain di planet ini mengambil berat tentang pembunuhan rambang dan keganasan di Syria.

"Inilah sebabnya mengapa anda menyimpan mendengar:'. Adalah Hanya Tuhan dengan kami Tiada siapa yang peduli tentang apa yang berlaku di sini. Tiada siapa yang peduli jika kita semua mati," kata beliau. "Mereka percaya ini boleh mengambil masa yang sangat lama. Mereka tidak akan berhenti pada bila-bila masa, tetapi mereka dengan diri mereka sendiri."

Al Arabiya correspondent recounts journey to Syrian resistance areas . . .

1WC’sChannel REVIEW 2012: (قناة العربية Al Arabiya Channel) Al Arabiya's senior correspondent, Alia Ibrahim, recently returned from territory controlled by the Free Syrian Army (FSA). In an interview Friday, she spoke to Al Arabiya English about her journey to meet Syrians determined to fight while the Assad regime continued bombing their towns.

"We had to smuggle ourselves inside Syria. We had to cross the Turkish border walking, it's like a four kilometers walk," she said.

"The difficult part about getting in was mostly that even though these villages are controlled by the FSA, the roads linking those villages to each and the cities to each other are not. Which means we had to take very small roads between these villages to avoid any checkpoints by the military of Assad. That was one part of the difficulty."

"The other part was that there was always airplanes and always bombings of these places. Even if the ground is under control of the FSA, the air is not," she added. People in the area felt alone against the bombs of the Assad regime, she said. The town of Binish was bombed after her crew left, and on their third day they encountered the village of Atareb, that had been completely destroyed but continued to endure bombings.

She encountered many different FSA factions, who had various different ideologies and levels of training, but did not see any sort of command structure.

"When there is actual fighting, all the groups become one entity. There is a small minority of groups that are not at all under control of the FSA. But what happens is these people come together when there's fighting and they become one group, even if on a daily basis they each gather in a different place and have different headquarters and have different levels even of religiousity and different levels of ideological thinking," she said.

Asked whether she encountered any foreign fighters, she said FSA members had told her of a handful from other Arab countries and Chechnya, but did not meet them. "When I asked people about this, they said they went from country to another where there was 'jihad,'" she said.

But amid the destruction, she said, there was a "general consensus" that no one else on the planet cared about the indiscriminate killing and violence in Syria. "This is why you keep hearing: 'Only God is with us. Nobody cares about what happens here. Nobody cares if we all die,'" she said. "They believe this could take a very long time. They're not going to stop at any time, but they're on their own."

Hasil Syria akan menjejaskan penempatan

konflik masa depan'- Lavrov . . .

TINJAUAN 1WC'sChannel 2012 (RT. Published: 21 Ogos, 2012) Hasil krisis Syria akan mempunyai impak yang besar tentang bagaimana konflik masa depan diselesaikan, menteri luar negeri Rusia memberitahu pemberita, sekali lagi memanggil penyelesaian diplomatik dan dialog dalam Syria.

"Kami percaya isu ini begitu banyak menarik perhatian bukan sahaja kerana skala pertumpahan darah, yang membimbangkan kita semua, tetapi juga kerana hasil krisis ketara akan mempengaruhi corak untuk penyelesaian konflik - segala-galanya sama ada akan jatuh mengikut undang-undang , yang mengikut Piagam PBB, atau 'demokrasi bom' akan diguna pakai, "Lavrov berkata, seperti yang dipetik oleh RIA Novosti.

Menteri Luar Rusia bercakap pada sidang akhbar di Helsinki pada hari Isnin selepas mengadakan pertemuan dengan rakan sejawatannya dari Finland beliau. Mewujudkan zon keselamatan di Syria, seperti tindakan unilateral lain, tidak akan menyelesaikan konflik di sana, Lavrov berkata sebagai tindak balas kepada soalan wartawan mengenai pendekatan seperti krisis.

"Saya telah membuat banyak kenyataan mengenai peristiwa-peristiwa yang berlaku di Syria dan sekitarnya. Tiada idea unilateral akan bekerja," katanya seperti yang dipetik oleh agensi berita Interfax. "Pendekatan Berkesan hanya boleh kolektif, dan contoh yang baik tindakan kolektif adalah dokumen yang diterima pakai pada persidangan Geneva pada 30 Jun, 2012," katanya, merujuk kepada resolusi yang ditandatangani oleh PBB, Kesatuan Eropah (EU) dan Liga Arab, serta beberapa lain-lain pemain serantau, menetapkan bahawa semua pihak dalam konflik Syria mesti bekerjasama dengan pemerhati PBB, membenarkan bantuan kemanusiaan untuk dihantar, pembebasan tahanan, geran mengakses wartawan dan melindungi hak untuk demonstrasi aman.

Lavrov menggariskan bahawa semua pihak kepada konflik Syria mesti terlibat dalam dialog untuk mencapai penyelesaian, dan bahawa sebarang cadangan akan perlu mempertimbangkan kepentingan semua kumpulan etnik dan agama di negara ini. "Mana-mana penyelesaian lain akan menyekat kemungkinan mewujudkan sebuah negara demokratik berdasarkan piawaian antarabangsa di Syria dan akan menjadi ancaman kepada keselamatan serantau," katanya.

Menteri Luar Rusia juga melahirkan kebimbangan mengenai ketidakupayaan untuk mencapai persetujuan mengenai krisis kuasa Barat'. Beliau menekankan pentingnya panggilan Communique Geneva bagi kedua-dua kerajaan Syria dan pembangkang untuk menamatkan keganasan dan mula ceramah mengenai pembentukan kerajaan perpaduan.

"Kami telah berjaya untuk mendapatkan sokongan untuk Communique Geneva daripada kerajaan Syria. Tetapi rakan-rakan kami tidak cuba untuk melakukan sesuatu seperti itu, lebih-lebih lagi, kumpulan pembangkang utama terbuka menolak dokumen itu. Tiada siapa yang cuba untuk bekerja dengan mereka, "kata Lavrov.

Syrian outcome will affect future conflicts'

settlements - Lavrov . . .

1WC’sChannel REVIEW 2012 (RT. Published: 21 August, 2012) The outcome of the Syrian crisis will have a significant impact on how future conflicts are settled, the Russian foreign minister told reporters, once again calling for a diplomatic solution and dialogue within Syria.

“We believe this issue attracts so much attention not only because of the scale of the bloodshed, which worries all of us, but also because the outcome of the crisis will significantly influence the patterns for conflict settlement – either everything will fall in accordance with laws, that is according to the UN Charter, or 'bomb democracy' will prevail,” Lavrov said, as quoted by RIA Novosti.

The Russian foreign minister spoke at a press conference in Helsinki on Monday after meeting his Finnish counterpart. Creating security zones in Syria, like other unilateral actions, will not resolve the conflict there, Lavrov said in response to a journalist's question about such an approach to the crisis.

"I have made a lot of statements on the events taking place in Syria and around it. No unilateral ideas will work," he said as quoted by Interfax news agency. "Effective approaches can only be collective, and a fine example of collective actions is the document adopted at the Geneva conference on June 30, 2012," he added, referring to the resolution signed by the UN, EU and Arab League, as well as a few other regional players, stipulating that all sides in the Syrian conflict must cooperate with UN observers, allow humanitarian aid to be delivered, release detainees, grant journalists access and protect the right to peaceful demonstrations.

Lavrov underlined that all parties to the Syrian conflict must be involved in a dialogue in order to reach a solution, and that any proposal would have to consider the interests of all the country's ethnic and religious groups. “Any other solution will block the possibility of creating a democratic state based on international standards in Syria and would become a threat to regional security,” he said.

The Russian foreign minister also expressed concern about Western powers' inability to reach an agreement on the crisis. He stressed the importance of the Geneva communiqué's calls for both the Syrian government and the opposition to end violence and start talks on the formation of a unity government.

“We have managed to get support for the Geneva communiqué from the Syrian government. But our partners haven’t even tried to do something like that; moreover, the main opposition groups publicly rejected the document. Nobody even tried to work with them,” Lavrov said.

Amerika Syarikat mengamalkan taktik al-Qaeda serangan menengah untuk serangan berdengung . . .
By 1WC’sChannel REVIEW 2012 | earthWatch Tuesday 21, August 2012

TINJAUAN 1WC'sChannel 2012: (RT. Published: 21 Ogos, 2012) Amerika Syarikat telah menjalankan susulan serangan selepas serangan berdengung di Pakistan, khususnya mensasarkan orang yang datang untuk membantu yang cedera. Taktik yang telah dikutuk secara meluas, termasuk oleh PBB - yang menganggap ia satu jenayah perang. Satu laporan Guardian oleh Glenn Greenwald menunjukkan kepura-puraan kerajaan Amerika Syarikat mengenai taktik itu. Walaupun FBI telah memberi amaran bahawa "pengganas mungkin menggunakan alat-alat letupan menengah untuk membunuh dan mencederakan kakitangan kecemasan yang bertindak balas kepada serangan awal," Amerika Syarikat sentiasa terpakai kaedah yang sama.

2004 FBI amaran rakyat Amerika terhadap serangan menengah bertujuan untuk "menghasut keganasan yang lebih," menasihati bahawa insiden seperti ini biasanya boleh dijangka dalam masa sejam serangan awal. "Alat-alat ini boleh tersembunyi dalam objek harian seperti kenderaan, beg bimbit, pasu bunga atau tong sampah, atau boleh menjadi serangan berani mati berjujukan di lokasi yang sama, dan secara umumnya diletupkan kurang daripada satu jam selepas serangan awal, mensasarkan balas pertama serta sebagai penduduk umum, "amaran membaca.

Pesawat ke-2 yang terhempas ke dalam WORLD Trade Center pada 11 September, 2001 adalah dianggap serangan menengah. Walaupun amaran taktik itu, kerajaan Amerika Syarikat telah cuba untuk menjustifikasikan pekerjaan sendiri daripada mereka. Sebuah video 2010 yang diterbitkan oleh Wikileaks menunjukkan 2 wartawan yang sedang dibunuh oleh helikopter Amerika mensasarkan pemberontak di Baghdad. Selepas penyelamat memandu ke tempat kejadian untuk membawa mangsa yang cedera ke hospital, helikopter sekali lagi melepaskan tembakan - membunuh kanak-kanak dalam proses dan meletakkan peluru ke dalam orang-orang yang sudah kelihatan mati.

Pada mulanya, tentera Amerika Syarikat mendakwa bahawa semua mereka yang dibunuh pemberontak, berkata ia adalah militan Iraq '"kesalahan untuk membawa kanak-kanak dalam pertempuran," The Guardian dilaporkan pada tahun 2010. Konvensyen Geneva membuat kesimpulan bahawa orang-orang yang "mengumpul dan menjaga mereka yang cedera" mesti menjadi diri mereka sendiri dilindungi daripada bahaya. khas pelapor PBB Christof Heyns berkata serangan ke atas penyelamat dianggap satu jenayah perang. Tetapi menyerang penyelamat kini telah menjadi kebiasaan bagi tentera Amerika. Biro Kewartawanan Siasatan mendapati bahawa CIA telah membunuh berpuluh-puluh penyelamat dan hadirin pengebumian di Pakistan.

Laporan negeri bahawa 50 atau lebih orang awam telah terbunuh akibat mangsa membantu - termasuk menarik badan keluar daripada runtuhan. Antara Mei 2009 dan Jun 2011, berita media melaporkan sekurang-kurangnya 15 serangan ke atas penyelamat. Hujung minggu lalu, Reuters melaporkan bahawa Pakistan utara melihat "keadaan tergesa-gesa serangan berdengung" pada satu masa apabila kebanyakan negara menyambut akhir Ramadan. Sekurang-kurangnya satu serangan adalah serangan susulan, International Herald Tribune melaporkan.

Al-Qaeda didakwa menyerang hendap pengebumian mangsa serangan mereka di Yaman sejak beberapa bulan lalu, mencetuskan kemarahan oleh rakyat Amerika yang mengutuk perbuatan. Pada masa yang sama, Amerika Syarikat terus menggunakan serangan menengah dalam hal ehwal sendiri di luar negara, dalam perang menentang keganasan berterusan.

US adopts al-Qaeda's tactic of secondary attacks

for drone strikes . . .

1WC’sChannel REVIEW 2012: (RT. Published: 21 August, 2012) The US has been carrying out follow-up attacks after its drone strikes in Pakistan, specifically targeting people coming to the aid of the wounded. The tactic has been widely condemned, including by the UN - which considers it a war crime. A Guardian report by Glenn Greenwald shows the US government's hypocrisy regarding such tactics. While the FBI has warned that “terrorists may use secondary explosive devices to kill and injure emergency personnel responding to an initial attack,” the US regularly applies the same methods.

A 2004 FBI alert warned Americans against secondary attacks meant to “incite more terror,” advising that such incidents can usually be expected within an hour of the initial attack. “These devices may be hidden in everyday objects such as vehicles, briefcases, flower pots or garbage cans, or can be sequential suicide attacks in the same locations, and are generally detonated less than one hour after the initial attack, targeting first responders as well as the general population,” the alert read.

The second plane crashing into the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001 is considered a secondary attack. While warning of such tactics, the US government has tried to justify its own employment of them. A 2010 video published by WikiLeaks shows two journalists being killed by an American helicopter targeting insurgents in Baghdad. After rescuers drove to the scene to bring the wounded to hospital, the helicopter once again opened fire - killing children in the process and putting bullets into those who were already visibly dead.

Initially, the US military claimed that all those killed were insurgents, saying it was the Iraqi militants' “fault for bringing kids in to a battle,” The Guardian reported in 2010. The Geneva Convention concluded that those who “collect and care for the wounded” must be themselves protected from harm. UN special rapporteur Christof Heyns said attacks on rescuers are considered a war crime. But attacking rescuers has now become the norm for American forces. The Bureau of Investigative Journalism found that the CIA has killed dozens of rescuers and funeral attendees in Pakistan.

The report states that 50 or more civilians had been killed as a result of helping victims - including pulling bodies out of rubble. Between May 2009 and June 2011, news media reported at least 15 attacks on rescuers. This past weekend, Reuters reported that northern Pakistan saw “a flurry of drone attacks” at a time when most of the country was celebrating the end of Ramadan. At least one of the strikes was a follow-up attack, the International Herald Tribune reports.

Al-Qaida allegedly ambushed funerals of their attack victims in Yemen over the past few months, sparking outrage by Americans who are condemning the acts. At the same time, the US continues to employ secondary attacks in its own affairs abroad, in a continuous war against terrorism.

Dalam lawatan tidak berjadual ke bilik taklimat White House petang ini, Presiden Obama mengambil soalan daripada pemberita dan membincangkan pengumuman baru yang besar dari Jabatan Kesihatan dan Perkhidmatan Manusia.

"Hari ini, HHS mengumumkan bahawa terima kasih kepada undang-undang penjagaan kesihatan yang kita lulus, hampir 5.4 Juta senior dengan Medicare telah disimpan lebih daripada US $ 4.1 bilion pada ubat-ubatan preskripsi. Itu satu penjimatan purata lebih daripada US $ 700 setiap orang," katanya. "Tahun ini sahaja, 18 juta warga tua dengan Medicare telah mengambil kesempatan daripada manfaat penjagaan baru pencegahan seperti mamogram atau saringan kanser yang lain tanpa sebarang kos tambahan."

Setelah ditanya mengenai prospek untuk tindakan lanjut dari ahli parlimen untuk membantu mewujudkan peluang pekerjaan dan mengembangkan ekonomi, Presiden mengulangi panggilan beliau untuk membantu berjuta-juta pemilik rumah yang bertanggungjawab menyelamatkan beratus-ratus dolar setiap bulan.

"Kami akan menolak Kongres untuk melihat jika mereka boleh lulus rang undang-undang pembiayaan semula yang meletakkan US $ 3,000 ke dalam poket purata keluarga yang belum lagi dibiayai semula gadai janji mereka. Itulah masalah besar," Presiden memberitahu pemberita. "Bahawa US $ 3,00 boleh digunakan untuk mengukuhkan yang ekuiti di rumah orang itu yang akan meningkatkan nilai rumah. Selain itu yang adalah $ 3.000 dalam poket rakyat bahawa mereka boleh menghabiskan pada komputer baru untuk kanak-kanak mereka akan kembali ke sekolah, atau pakaian sekolah baru untuk anak-anak mereka, dan sebagainya yang akan mengukuhkan ekonomi juga."

Pada podium, Presiden Obama juga menjawab soalan mengenai pemberontakan di Syria, keselamatan servicemembers Amerika di Afghanistan, dan keadaan kempen politik 2012.

President Obama Holds a News Conference . . .

In an unscheduled visit to the White House briefing room this afternoon, President Obama took questions from reporters and discussed a big new announcement from the Department of Health and Human Services.

"Today, HHS announced that thanks to the health care law that we passed, nearly 5.4 million seniors with Medicare have saved over $4.1 billion on prescription drugs. That’s an average savings of more than $700 per person," he said. "This year alone, 18 million seniors with Medicare have taken advantage of new preventive care benefits like a mammogram or other cancer screening at no extra cost."

After being asked about the prospects for more action from lawmakers to help create jobs and grow the economy, the President reiterated his call to help millions of responsible homeowners save hundreds of dollars each month.

"We're going to be pushing Congress to see if they can pass a refinancing bill that puts $3,000 into the pockets of the average family who hasn’t yet refinanced their mortgage. That's a big deal," the President told reporters. "That $3,00 can be used to strengthen the equity in that person's home, which would raise home values. Alternatively, that's $3,000 in people's pockets that they can spend on a new computer for their kid going back to school, or new school clothes for their kids, and so that would strengthen the economy as well."

At the podium, President Obama also answered questions about the uprising in Syria, the security of American servicemembers in Afghanistan, and the state of the 2012 political campaign.

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) - angka kematian meningkat kepada 6 pada hari Isnin dari gempa bumi hujung minggu di Indonesia sebagai penyelamat sampai ke kampung-kampung pergunungan yang telah terputus akibat tanah runtuh, kata pegawai. Sekurang-kurangnya 43 yang lain cedera, termasuk 8 dalam keadaan kritikal.

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) - The death toll rose to six on Monday from a powerful weekend earthquake in Indonesia as rescuers reached mountainous villages that had been cut off by landslides, officials said. At least 43 others were injured, including eight in critical condition.

The magnitude-6.3 quake struck Saturday evening near Palu city on Sulawesi Island as residents were ending their fast on the final day of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Sutopo Purwo Nugroho of Indonesia's Disaster Management Agency said rescuers with heavy equipment and bulldozers were clearing the roads to at least 14 villages in Sigie district that were blocked by landslides.

EUROPE News 'Major fire on eastern Greek island of Chios' . . .

ATHENS, Greece (AP) - Hundreds of firefighters were battling a major forest fire on Greece's eastern Aegean island of Chios on Monday as it ravaged forests, agricultural land and groves of the island's famed mastic trees for the third day.

Gale-force winds were hampering efforts by about 360 firefighters, soldiers and volunteers, as well as firefighting planes, helicopters and 50 vehicles. Residents of nine villages and hamlets evacuated their homes over the weekend as a precaution.

The blaze broke out shortly after 2 a.m. Saturday morning and authorities said that by Monday it had destroyed about 7,000 hectares (16,000 acres) of forest and farmland. Smoke from the fire carried across the Aegean as far as the southern island of Crete, more than 350 kilometers (230 miles) away.

Chios is famous for the production of mastic, a gum-like resin with a distinctive flavor produced only by trees on certain parts of the island. It is used widely in confectionery, cooking and cosmetics and a major source of income.

Local authorities said many of the trees had been burned, while the island's beekeepers had also lost 60 percent of their hives. Another five forest and brush fires broke out Monday across Greece, while crews were fighting another six blazes burning since Sunday in other parts of the country.

One of those was on the central Aegean island of Andros, where two French tourists - a 32-year-old man and a 29-year-old woman - were arrested on suspicion of starting Sunday's fire. The Fire Department did not specify how the blaze started.

Forest fires are common in Greece during the typically long, hot summers, and the country has seen a series of blazes in recent weeks after going through a heat wave. By far the worst spate of fires came in 2007, when more than 60 people died as flames swept across hundreds of kilometers through villages and across mountains in the Peloponnese in the country's south and in central Greece.

Isyarat RASULULLAH tentang berbagai kerusuhan, Yang untuk Menghidarinya harus Menyingkir dari Masyarakat (Messenger Cues about the Riots, which to be Get away from the Society) . . .

Demikian, sebagaimana tersebut dalam sebuah hadith yang disampaikan kepada kita oleh Ibnu Mas’ud. Abu Daud meriwayatkan dari Muslim bin Abi Bakrah dan ayahnya, dia berkata: Rasulullah Shallallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam bersabda,

“Sesungguhnya akan terjadi suatu huru-hara, dimana orang yang berbaring lebih baik daripada orang yang duduk, orang yang duduk lebih baik daripada orang yang berdiri, orang yang berdiri lebih baik daripada orang yang berjalan, dan orang yang berjalan lebih baik daripada orang yang berlari. Abu Bakrah berkata, ‘Ya Rasul ‘Allah apa yang anda perintahkan kepadaku?’

Rasul menjawab, ‘Barangsiapa memilih unta, temuilah untanya. Barangsiapa memiliki kambing, temui kambingnya. Dan Barangsiapa memiliki kebun, temuilah kebunnya. ‘Rasul bersabda pula, ‘Barangsiapa tidak memiliki apa-apa, maka ambil pedangnya, lalu pukullah pada batu mata pedangnya itu, kemudian selamatkan dirinya selagi boleh”
