[Occupymendocino] Mairead Maguire Reveals Truth About Syria- A MUST SEE VIDEO

[ELLEN ROSSER]

Dear Richard and All 99%ers,
      Much as I admire Maguire and what she has done for Palestinians, I'm
afraid she has not gotten unbiased information in the case of Syria.   She
was invited by the Patriarch.  That would be the Syrian Orthodox Patriarch,
I assume, since there is no Latin (Catholic) Patriarch in Syria.   And the
Syrian Orthodox are with Assad, and it is they who convinced Russia to
support Assad and supply him with weapons.  Maguire seems to believe what
Assad's Prime Minister told her and what the refugees that she probably was
guided to by Assad's people told her.   The Christian Orthodox minority
liked Assad because he did protect them.   They fear the Sunni Muslim
majority.   Therefore,  although I admire Maguire,  I'm afraid her
statements may unintentionally be biased toward Assad.   However, she is
absolutely right about elections--but elections for president should be
held immediately not next year.  Otherwise the fighting will continue until
next year.  A ceasefire and immediate free and fair UN sponsored elections
will let the majority choose whom they want for president.    It is their
right.
              Peace and blessings,  Ellen Rosser
