Arab League rejects Syrian request over monitors

Share:

The Arab League has rejected a request by Damascus to amend plans to send a monitoring mission to Syria, where troops and tanks have been used to repress protests against President Bashar al-Assad, Egypt’s state news agency reported on Sunday.

It said the League rebuffed Syria’s approach in a letter from its Secretary-General Nabil Elaraby to Syria’s foreign minister. The League wants to send a 500-strong mission of monitors to Syria to assess the situation there.

“The additions requested by the Syrian counterpart affect the heart of the protocol and fundamentally change the nature of the mission,” the letter said, MENA reported, adding that the pan-Arab body rejected the demand.

The League had given Damascus three days from a meeting on Nov. 16 to abide by a deal to withdraw military forces from restive cities and start talks between the government and opposition. The plan included sending an observer team to Syria.

The Arab League said in its statement that it was committed to an Arab solution for the Syrian violence and was working to end the crackdown on civilians in Syria.

An Arab League source said the mission’s visit was now “in question” because it cannot take place until the Syrian government signs a protocol with the League.

The Arab League set the Saturday deadline for Syria to comply with a peace plan, entailing a military pullout from around cities and towns, and threatened sanctions if Assad failed to halt the violence.

It was not immediately clear what action the League would take after the deadline was disregarded.

“Although the time frame has ended, there have been no meetings or calls for meetings except at the level of delegations (to the League),” a representative of one Arab state at the League told Reuters.

  1. The Beginning, of the End for Bashar and his family, has now started. I predicted three weeks ago, he and his family would not see 2012, and that prediction still stands…..the situation is getting worse for him, by the HOUR, not the day, and he is now starting to realize he might soon be dead…..Thank God for that…..let’s make sure his psychotic brother Maher, his mother, that pig Anisa, who has complete control over Bashar, his sister Bushra and her husband, Assef Shawkat, Rustom Ghazali (the bastard butcher of Lebanon), Walid Muallem, Bouthaina Shaban, and also, lets not forget the big mouth for 40 years, who has been very quiet for 8 months, Farouk Sharaa, and last, but certainly, not least, his cousin, the master thief of Syria’s fortunes, Rami Makhlouf and more….soon, the Lion will not roar anymore….

      wait till salafite over take Syri and libon. you be shitty bricks.

      1. Not just Syria and Lebanon, people also think this Arab spring is a good thing for the ME but this is not going to take them forward but back 500 years.
        We know what these new and power hungry groups want for the people and that is a rule of law that no human will be able to live by and so the word punishment will take on a new form.   KEEP THE PEOPLE UNEDUCATED AND SILENT NO MATTER WHAT IT WILL TAKE.  

        1. Master09….YOU are one of the uneducated, we are trying educate….Please convince me what you wrote, about keeping people uneducated and silent, is NOT precisely what Hafez Assad and now his son, have done to the good people of Syria, for over 40 years??? Once the Syrian people started discovering how the rest of the world REALLY lives, they started asking for their freedom. This generation of Syrians, do not want their children, and their childrens children, to suffer like their grandparents, parents, and they, themselves, are suffering, and you, are a fool, for twisting around to make it seem the new democratic and free syria, will keep the Syrian people uneducated and silent, like your friends did, to a entire generation.

        2. Master09: No one will take you back 500 years, as they don’t have to…you are ALREADY back 500 years, with your foolish thoughts, comments, and predictions…I feel bad for you, in a way, as it is very obvious to all in this forum, you are an uneducated person, who has been brainwashed for years… 

      2. Your comment has @leobetapar:disqus written all over it. 
        could Leobetapar = dabshaleem ???
        1. Same fixation on the Salafi’s
        2. Atrocious spelling and translation

      3. Ya dabshaleem / leobetapar, YOU will be the one, shitting bricks…huge bricks…..

        1. CS please educate yourself before trying to educate even one person.
          When and where did I state in my wordings that the past or THE present are GOOD, BAD or UGLY.
          The problem with uneducated people is they can not read between the lines and like you assume what the other person is saying.

          I have always been against the ME keeping their people in a box and not giving them a life and free speech and open elections.

          What you fail to understand is what is the NEXT PEOPLE IN POWER GOING TO BE LIKE AND IF YOU ARE ABLE TO XPLAIN AND PROVE THAT THEY WILL BE BETTER THAN THE LAST CLOWNS that have been in power THAN YOU HAVE GIVEN ME AN EDUCATION.

          I have never and will never follow a ME leader or a political party or for that fact even in my second home on the most beautiful and most peacefull country on earth in the pacific, I don’t even follow politics ,Why they are all worse than the last and in the ME like Lebanon they are all crooks, selling their country and keeping the people hungry.
          YOU have no clue about me. My education is to a level that not many people will get to, but does that make me any smarter than you or any other person ,I think not.

          You see I am for free speech equal rites for MEN AND WOMEN for the poor and rich to have the same rite, for girls and boys to go to school, for all black ,white ,Muslim ,Christian to be the same.

          SO what are the new powers going to be like BETTER OR WORSE,PLEASE tell me.

          Or should we just get rid of shit from the house and keep the smell that will last even longer.

          Good day can’t wait for my education. But most of all I hope that the new ME or Arab Spring is GREAT for the people so they might have a chance at life.

    the arableage should order an attack on iran,s nuclear site , it is a conspiracy by iran to take over the arabic countries and dominate the middleeast using syria,s alawites (a shia branchsect) as a base , and this is a prove where you see the alawites attack the sunnis,s with tanks and canons and heavy weapons in syria ,if they can do it in syria they will do it to  the sunnis in other arabic countries ,such as  saudiarabia,jordan, egypt ,quatar,kwait etc…. the arabic leage should weak up to iran conspiracy and stopped them now from obtaining nuclear weapons , other wise they will be conquered and invaded by shia,s iran ;
    saudi arabia should make a move and defend itself from iran threat because the us is not going to be there babysitting and protecting them forever ,they need to fight iran now to defend themselves ,the us is leaving the middleeast soon , brazil have discovered 55trillions barrel of oil reserve and they have to sell it because they run 90% of there country on ethanol ,and the us will buy oil from brasil it will last the  us 1000 years plus to electric in the us  as of now 10% in 10 years will have 80% of the cars run on electric  , this discovery made the middleeast stability less important to the us
    it is still important but not as it was few years ago; in another word , arab league should attack nuclear facilities in iran now before its toolate , because the us may not be able to protect the arab from iran in the near future , because the us may leave most of the middleast soon . the arab league should make a joint venture attack with israel against iran,s nuclear facilities , because the arab countries as well as israel will be targeted by iran nuclear weapons
