Ali: Syrian Army Could Not Have Been Responsible for Shooting at Al-Jadeed Crew

W300

The Syrian Ambassador to Lebanon Ali Abdul Karim Ali stated on Friday that Damascus is serious in its investigation to uncover the truth behind the death of al-Jadeed television cameraman Ali Shaaban.

He said: “The Syrian army could not have been behind the heavy shooting at the television crew.”

He made his statements after offering his condolences to the Shaaban family.

Furthermore, Ali noted: “The shooting from the Syrian side of the border harms the Syrians, as well as the Lebanese.”

Shaaban was killed on Monday when he and two of his colleagues came under heavy gunfire from the Syrian side of the border as they were performing their duties in the border region of Wadi Khaled.

“Syria has an interest in uncovering the truth behind the shooting because it is being targeted,” stressed the ambassador.

“Lebanon and Syria are one and therefore whoever wants to create strife is targeting these two countries and the entire region,” remarked Ali.

In addition, he urged all sides against jumping to conclusions regarding the incident.

That's right....the same BS reasoning/excuses they gave when denying having anything to do with Rafic Hariri's death.

I thought the 4 innocent generals and Emile Lahoud were behind the killing of Pig Rafic Syria. Oh, no, it's Hizbullah. Oh, no, its' the Syrians again. Oh, no, it's Nasser Qandil who did it. Oh, no, it's Michel Samaha. Oh, no, it's Imad Marmal. Oh, not, it's Suleiman Franjieh. Oh, no, it's Hizbullah. Oh, no, it's the Syrians again. Oh, no, it's Farid el Atrache who killed the Pig. Oh, no, it's Baligh Hamdi who did it. Oh, no, ask those who know: Geha and Himaro (aka bigasmi). Oh, no, ask Gabby and Himaro (aka allouchi). Oh, no, it's Hizballah again. Oh, no, it's the 4 innocent generals. Oh, no. Just ask those who know they know.

Sure! And I suppose the Syrian Army could not have been responsible for the bombing of Homs either...

Yes....we in the Syrian mukhabbarat.......I mean Syrian embassy, do not believe that ASSad's forces could kill anyone on border. Remember the mine laying, the other border violations, the helicopter fly overs, those mean nothing. We are brothers.....this must be the work of "armed gangs".

Seriously, this sent a shock wave through the Hezz community. The lies of Nassy and ASSad have been exposed yet again.

The Syrian army cannot be responsible for this. It must be the Tanzanian army located there instead!

Investigation is not done and he already has drawn his conclusion, or rather the statement he is going to stick with despite the facts.

he is right the Syrian army could not have been responsible . also the Syrian army is no responsible for the death of thousands of people in Syria . also the Syrian army is not responsible for the disappearance of hundreds of Lebanese while they occupy Lebanon . if they carry their responsibility correctly they would have got rid of their president, yes they are not responsible army at all he is right .

ANYONE who followed this event and read my comments few days ago when I clearly stated and predicted that the regime will blame Ali's death event to armed terrorists, will learn day after day about the lying killer regime.
