These groups should leave the areas with a Kurdish presence being attacked under Islamic slogans and the execution of suicide operations that serve agendas of countries that do not want Syrias stability, the Kurds are an ancient people and they were among the first participants in the revolution These acts brought a state of anxiety in the region, and increased the fears and apprehensions of its children because of the bad intentions of those armed groups who were angered from its relative stability and peaceful coexistence between its components. Kurds are our brothers in blood and our partners in the homeland .. We also demand the release of detainees from the people in these battalions and call on the leadership of the National Coalition for the forces of the revolution and the leadership of the Free Syrian Army to lift the lid on all those who are covered by them, and engage in acts detrimental to the Syrian revolution and its objectives, but serve its enemies, including the regime itself, we also appeal to the children of the Kurdish people and to all the people of the Jazira to increase their vigilance and solidarity to protect their area and their children and who they are, and remain loyal to the noble objectives to which throb the peaceful revolution, a revolution of freedom and dignity. Long live an eternal free Syria ----------------------------------- Syria Feature: When State Propagandas Collide North Korea vs. Damascus State news agencies of both the Syrian and North Korean regimes were busy this week, tasked with reporting a visit by delegates from Syrias ruling Baath Party to Pyongyang. Both the Syrian Arab News Agency<http://sana.sy/eng/22/2013/07/25/494220.htm> (SANA) and the Korean Central News Agency <http://www.kcna.co.jp/index-e.htm> (KCNA) used the visit to express key propaganda messages to their home audiences. [image: Bashar al-Assad is a popular figure in the DPRK]<http://eaworldview.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/assad-in-north-korea-portrait2-e1374825063332.jpg> For KCNA, the visit was unsurprisingly all about North Korean leader Kim Jong U and his roles, *First secretary of the Workers Party of Korea, first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK and supreme commander of the Korean Peoples Army*. With that introduction of the way, KCNA explained that the Syrians were visiting *to participate in the celebrations of the 60th anniversary of the Korean peoples victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War.* Ah, so the story is all about the Great Fatherland Liberation War a.k.a. the Korean War of 1950-53 and the victories of Kim Jong Un (even though he was not alive at the time)? Well, not at SANA. For the Syrian news agencys reporters, the visit was all about North Koreas unwavering support for Bashar al-Assad: *Democratic Koreas President Kim Jong Un affirmed his countrys absolute solidarity with Syria in the face of imperialism, adding that the US and Israel will never be able to defeat Syria.* [image: Kim Jong Un impressed by the juxtaposition of Assad and a fountain]<http://eaworldview.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/asssad-e1374825041866.jpg> And not only Assad but all his loyal subjects got a shout-out from Kim: *President Jong Un expressed during the meeting his greetings to President Bashar al-Assad and the Syrian people, noting that the Syrian participation in the celebrations constitutes a great encouragement for the people of Democratic Korea.* Opening statements made, it is on to the main story. For KCNA, Kim Jong Un is still out front, with the Syrian delegation respectfully offering warmest congratulations to both the Leader and the friendly Korean people. But what are those congratulations for? In case the reader forgot a few paragraphs earlier, KCNA helpfully reminds, *The occasion of the 60th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War*. And the Leaders personality shines through like an update of Pride and Prejudices Lady Catherine de Bourgh as he warmly welcomed the Syrians who, he condescendedly added, had made a long trip to the DPRK. [image: 20130725-164154_h494220]<http://eaworldview.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/20130725-164154_h494220-e1374825016274.jpg> Why had the Syrian delegation made the trip? Can anybody remember? *For taking part in the celebrations of the 60th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War * Still in his warm welcome, Kim Jong Un extended a militant salute to President Bashar Al-Assad and the Syrian people. Indeed, it was a great encouragement to North Koreans that Syria had despatched delegates. What was their destination? *The celebrations of the 60th anniversary of the victory in the war* And, incidentally, the two sides discussed bilateral relations in a a friendly and amicable atmosphere. SANA, inconceivably, misses the Fatherland Liberation War at least the one of 1953 rather than 2013. Instead, it records a condemnation of all forms of foreign interference by the international imperialism in Syrias internal affairs. SANAs Kim Jong Un was particularly concerned by the fact that *if the aggression on Syria continues, it would drag the entire Middle East into a conflict of severe consequences that would threaten the international peace and security *. In case that is too dire a story-line, SANA highlights Kim Jong Uns confidence that Assad will be victorious thanks to the unity between the Syrian people, army, and leadership. SANA notes that the Syrian delegation clearly gratified by such overwhelming support from Kim Jung Un and the Korean people for just Arab causes, particularly those of Palestine and the occupied Syrian Golan ended on a note of mutual defiance of the international community. North Korea, the Syrian delegation said, had a right to possessing peaceful nuclear energy [for] the development and progress of its society, which would help unify the Korean peninsula. [Editor's Note: SANA did not touch on whether the South Koreans wished to be unified with nuclear energy.] http://eaworldview.com/2013/07/syria-when-state-propagandas-collide-pyongyang-vs-damascus/ [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAAMN: Los Angeles Alternative Media Network --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digest: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help: <mailto:[email protected]?subject=laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive1: <http://www.egroups.com/messages/laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive2: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yahoo!
