Western press sidesteps content of Arab League
Observer Mission reportSYRIA PRESS REVIEW #35
Wednesday, January 25, 2012
The international media sees the press conference of Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem as the validation of their remarks yesterday regarding the decisions of the Arab League’s Ad Hoc Ministerial Committee (extension of the observer mission and proposal of a roadmap) and their partial rejection by Damascus.None, however, has informed its readers about the actual content of the AL Observer Mission report, which explicitly denies there has ever been a bloody crackdown on peaceful demonstrations. Following in the footsteps of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, they all continue to relay the fabrications of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights without ever questioning its legitimacy, its methodology or credibility. Consequently, the media misconstrued the words of Mr. Moallem - that the Syrian state will discharge its responsibilities for protecting the population against armed groups - as the announcement of an escalation of political repression.
• Continuing his international tour, former Arab League observer Anwar Malek was interviewed this time by the Süddeutsche Zeitung. None of the media so far seems to be familiar with his past, nor to have read the fragment of the Arab League Mission report concerning him. The only thing that interests the West is to be told what it wants to hear. Anwar Malek has already been given column space in United States Today (United States), National Post (Canada), Libération and Le Monde (France), Le Temps (Switzerland).
• L’Orient-Le Jour reported that Lebanese banks will apply the international sanctions against Syria. It seems that the governor of the Lebanese Central Bank was referring to the European unilateral sanctions, even if they are in breach of international law.
