Syria's president Bashar al-Assad should be 'exiled to Siberia'

By The Siberian Times reporter
01 July 2015

Only way to save the Middle East country from 'endless bloodshed'.

'Maybe the only way to save Syria from this gloomy scenario is to tell his friends, meaning the Russians, meaning the Iranians, to get him somewhere, either to Siberia or to a desert.' Hackingconflict

Lebanon's Druze leader Walid Jumblatt claimed that 'the way Assad behaves for the past four years is leading, and has led, Syria to civil war and the possibility of partitioning, which means endless bloodshed'.

The strongman said on New York's AM 970 radio: 'Maybe the only way to save Syria from this gloomy scenario is to tell his friends, meaning the Russians, meaning the Iranians, to get him somewhere, either to Siberia or to a desert.'

He said there was  'a desert not too far away from Tehran' but didn't specify where in vast Siberia the Syrian president might find his new home in exile. 

But the Druze strongman said such a move 'may save Syria from this terrible scenario'.

Assad's time on Earth will end like every-other blood thirsty Dictator life ends, "Bloodied". His days are numbered & I would like to say that about the outsider who became his "Policeman"? as well.

Figure the "policeman" for yourselves?!

If Bashar arrives in Siberia that could mean the investment of $ millions in the Siberian economy and thousands of Christian Orthodox refugees from Syria and Iraq, mano of tiempo skilled....but that will not happen unless te stability in Syria is guaranteed and Russia can keep its naval base in the Mediterránean.

I say the same what Syrian Christian leader told the West and I quote-stop arming terrorist groups who are massacring our people. All this innocent blood that is being spilled not only in Syria, othe places as well. I tell you soon you will be covered with our own blood, and I will laugh at your malice.

Cuba, or even Iran might not be so cold.
