Friday was, as usual, a day of major public protests in Syria, with tens of thousands taking to the streets. But while there were some reports of clashes with police, the ceasefire appears to have held through another day.
This marks two days of relative calm in Syria since the ceasefire formally took effect, and despite rebels claiming that it was “doomed” from the start, there seems to be more optimism going into the weekend.
Kofi Annan’s peace plan centered on securing a ceasefire from both sides before moving toward the deployment of monitors and a negotiation of a settlement. Little planning has been made on the post-ceasefire steps, since no one expected the deal to get this far.
But now, the negotiations are ongoing at the UN Security Council on sending the first few members of a UN observer team. This will be yet another difficult step, and the US and Russia are already fighting over the terms of the resolution.
In the eyes of these people whom are told what to say or what to do and etc. "despite rebels claiming that it was “doomed” from the start”, nothing will work but what Saudis or UAE and US or EU are after, regime change, no matter what. Because Saudis king the true tyrants of the middle east and Hillary Clinton said so, so there isn’t an inch in compromise. Actually these people are either stupid of crazy, if they had not started the fighting, arming these thugs and terrorist groups by Saudis, US, EU and UAE or Turkey and Jordan they would have gain momentum in negotiating when negotiation was offered to them 10 months ago. They could have win the heart and mind of Syrian people, yet not being or wanting democracy in Syria then war is what you got, that alone shows a bunch of thieves and paid mercenaries wanting to change a regime that work for people, replacing it with a puppet regime working for Saudis and UAE while peoples wealth is stolen and where Israel is happy about killings that taking place in Syria and elsewhere in Middle east.
