Syria has temporarily closed the international airport in Aleppo, the country’s second-largest city, due to attacks by rebel fighters, AFP reported, citing an anonymous airport official.
There have been continued attempts by opposition militants to target civilian aircraft, which could cause a humanitarian disaster,” he said.
Airport authorities confirmed that the hub was closed, but said that the closure was due to maintenance work on the runway and other ground facilities.
This footage taken on December 14, 2012 during the week of what the Syrian opposition called “We’re All Jabhat Al-Nusra” (aka al-Qaeda in Syria), members of the “Free Syrian Army” (FSA) are seen singing with crowds of people a song that was previously sung by two Saudi Jihadis in which they praise Osama bin Laden and the terror acts on the Word Trade Center in New York City on September 11, 2001.

This video footage is taken from the town of Harem, Syria. It shows members of the ‘Ahfad al-Rasool’ (Grandsons of the Messenger/ Prophet) Brigade of the “Free Syrian Army” (FSA) publicly executing an unarmed man under the accusation that he wrote ‘Everybody is Bashar al-Assad’ on a wall, which by itself seems like some made up accusation just so they can liquidate a pro-government civilian.
However, during the public execution, these terrorists end up shooting a young man, whom they refer to as ‘kid’, who happened to pass by on a motorbike.
A shocking video shows Obama-backed Syrian rebels attempting to shoot down a civilian airliner over the Idlib province in another disturbing example of how taxpayer money is being used to support terrorists.
The footage shows members of the “Free Syrian Army” (FSA) manning an anti-aircraft gun and debating whether or not they should target what is clearly a non-military plane.
“Keep following it, let it get closer,” says one of the men, giving orders to the militant in control of the weapon, adding, “Don’t shoot until I tell you.”
“This plane is for travel,” another remarks as it becomes clear the jet is a commercial airliner. “This plane is not military,” adds another.
After another rebel claims the plane could be military, another tells him, “No, it is civilian, look at how slow it is.”
The men then get orders via their walkie talkies from someone named ‘Sheikh Amhed’, who tells them, “Even if it is for travel (civilian), hit it!”
“Hit it,” yells another rebel, “Just aim straight and fire,” remarks another.
The men then start chanting “Allahu Akbar” and a shot is fired in the direction of the aircraft followed by another. Having missed, the men then rotate the anti-aircraft gun around to the right as the plane flies over Maasaran.
“Let’s hit the plane, Allah willing!,” comments one of the men.
It is not known whether the plane was actually hit, but the fact that rebels are targeting civilian airliners was already confirmed last week when a rebel commander told Reuters that, “Rebels fired warning shots at an airliner preparing to take off from Aleppo airport in the first direct attack on a civilian flight since the uprising in Syria began 21 months ago.”
The fact that US-backed rebels are targeting civilian airliners and endangering the lives of innocent people again illustrates how NATO powers are throwing their support behind terrorists who are openly committing war crimes and bragging about it.
Earlier this month, 29 different Syrian opposition groups pledged their allegiance to Al Nusra, an Al-Qaeda-affiliated group which, as the New York Times reported, “killed numerous American troops in Iraq.”
The Obama administration has sent hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to Syrian rebels, the majority of whomaren’t even Syrian, and has indicated that heavy weaponry and military support is on its way. On December 12,President Obama recognized the Syrian opposition as the “legitimate representative of the country’s people.”
A Syrian rebel recently quoted by McClatchy Newspapers was overheard to remark, “When we finish with Assad, we will fight the U.S.!” Other militants have appeared in You Tube videos speaking of their desire to see the Al-Qaeda flag fly over the White House and impose Sharia law once the rebels are victorious across the region.
A petition launched earlier this month asks the White House to cease all funding and support for Syrian rebels, noting that, “Funding terrorists is a crime under the National Defense Authorization Act.”
A second video has emerged today, December 21, 2012, that shows the same Islamist terrorist and chemical Jihadist from the ‘Chemical Brigade of al-Reeh al-Sarsar (Almighty Wind)’ of the “Free Syrian Army” (FSA) that appeared in an earlier video clarifying certain facts about who his ‘brigade’ is and what they will do next to Syrian government supporters and Alawites.
In the video, another experiment is performed by the masked terrorist where a rabbit is killed by forcing it to drink a fatal chemical mixture. The terrorist then proceeds to explain that his chemical mixture will poison the Nabh al-Sinn (Spring / Fountain of al-Sinn) in Lattakia, a source of potable drinking water for a large civilian population in northwestern Syria.
The terrorist claims that his group is formed from ‘academics’ with Master’s degrees in Chemistry and that they got together via online social networking sites. The video has a hardline Jihadi al-Qaeda-type music playing in the background.
The terrorist also denies any links to Syrian or Turkish intelligence. He also says that his group does not belong to al-Qaeda, although he does not approve of the fact that the US placed al-Nusra Front (al-Qaeda in Syria) on terror list.
The masked man also talks about giving a 1-month negotiation period after the second statement is issued. At the beginning of this video, the speaker says that this video is the first statement, which implies that the negotiation period has not started yet.
The video ends with a message to Alawites, whom these terrorists also refer to as enemies of Allah, stating that the group is not in Gaziantep, Turkey, but rather inside Syrian territories.
Warning: The video contains footage of a rabbit dying. To all faint-hearted and animal rights activists, please do not watch the video (Not for Shock, 18+, aimed at documenting crimes of FSA terrorists)
