Syria Kurds need unity against FSA: official tells Kurdpress

The chief of Syria Kurds National Council (KNC) said the Syrian Kurds need to be united against the attacks of anti-government Free Syrian Army (FSA) forces on the northern Kurdish city of Efrin.

Talking to Kurdpress, KNC Leading Council Chief, Faisal Yusuf said, FSA forces have created serious security problems around Efrin and put the security of some villages in danger.

“They (FSA forces) have clashed with People Defense Units (YPG) in some villages,” Yusuf told Kurdpress, denouncing the attacks.
He further asked Human Rights centers to take on steps against possible political and human crisis in the Syrian Kurdish region.

Yusuf whose party is known as enjoying the support of Kurdistan Region President Massoud Barzani, denied serious problem with Democratic Union Party (PYD), affiliated with Kurdistan Workers’ Party.

Answering a question whether they have been in contact with FSA officials, including Maj. General Salim Edris over the attacks, Yusuf said there is unfortunately no FSA united organization and none of its commanders feel responsibility towards the army’s moves.

All bandits surrendered without a fight. After the fall of Al Quisar bandits moral for the fight took a nosedive.

The casualties are causing concern among Lebanon's Shiites, and many other Lebanese, who lauded Hezbollah's war against Israel,
eventually ending a 22-year-occupation of southern Lebanon in 2000, but are upset the group is now killing other Arabs and dragging
Lebanon to the war.

Currently, Hezbollah is fighting with Assad's troops In Damascus, the Syrian capital where the rebels hold several districts.
Syrian opposition officials say 34 Hezbollah fighters were killed in Damascus Saturday.

But the group's main force, said by military sources in Beirut to be 2,000- to 4,000 strong, is now building up around Aleppo,
Syria's largest city and once its commercial heart.

And about the video with chechen suicide bomber. I'm really happy these idiots are dieing there, Caucasus is way safer when they are on their Jihad safaris.
