In light of all the international pressure faced by Damascus, and the media campaign fierce target, and Western attempts to persuade Russia and China to change their position in the UN Security Council, Syria, to get a UN resolution condemning of government, and opens the way for military intervention in the inside Syria, after convinced the West and some accessories from the Arabs of the futility of economic blockade, which enhances the productive capacity of Syria, after talking about a buffer zone in northern Lebanon under "slogan a humanitarian," and after talking to the increase of smuggling weapons from Lebanon.

What is the reality of the situation in Syria, and what is happening in the border areas?

Confirms the reference to the Lebanese close to Damascus was visited this week, told the consistency that he sensed from the Syrian leadership was very pleased about the stability of the international position in support of Damascus, led by Russia, China and Albraix, and is the reference that the crisis in Syria, taken dimension internationalist and clear, and not just a campaign of protest to achieve the reforms also promoted some of the media, pointing out that confirm the positions of the Russian and Chinese, who reject any form of military intervention in Syria, in addition to the arrival of Russian aircraft carrier to the Syrian coast that strengthen Moscow's position, with a message warning of military intervention Atlantic awaited inside the Syrian testament to that.

In domestic affairs, and more importantly, indicates the reference to the security and stability prevail in the majority of the Syrian governorates, with the exception of some of inflamed areas, such as Homs, Hama and rural Idlib, and quotes the Syrian officials are keen on the safety of civilians in these areas, which delays the zero hour for a major military operation to clear terrorists.

And commends the aforementioned authority of the wisdom of the Syrian leadership, stewards with the reality of security and treatment on the way "spot surgery," the lack of bloodshed, thus giving a pretext to charges of committing massacres against humanity, despite the insistence of the vast majority of Syrians Ajtthat terrorist outposts.

And the breakdown of the security situation on the Syrian border, confirms the reference citing concerned that the security situation of these areas is under control, pointing to areas adjacent to the Lebanon are the most heat, due to logistical support, especially financial terrorists inside Syria, which makes it easier for them to obtain several sabotage weapons and communication devices and the like.

In this context, comes the suspicious movements of some of the Syrians in conflict with the law in some village's border of Lebanon, jointly and severally with the groups of satisfaction and current "future" and that has evolved recently to affect Syrian workers inside Lebanon, and this is what happened last week with the staff, "Alaa Masoud" and "Mahmoud Darwish," who were abducted by gunmen near the border crossing Peki'in in Akkar and taken to an unknown destination, were beatings and torture against the backdrop of sectarian Mhma after their money, and asked them to insulting the Syrian president so they can be then to Tsourehma Pkmirat phones.

In this regard, show, party sources in Akkar fear of movements takfiris in the border areas, led by Imad Jassim, nicknamed "Malbis al-Ghannaamah" accused the president to negotiate with Ashrafieh in February 2006, which seeks to target the stability of Syria from Lebanon in collaboration with some of the wanted men to justice in Syria, which raised the suspicion of the people of those areas of the reactions of the Syrian armed forces to target their territory, some of the references in Wadi Khaled warned of the activity of "displaced persons" and their patrons in the border villages.

Reveals a familiar reality on the ground in the "Wadi", the Al Jassim contributed to the entry of journalists and the agency "BBC" to Homs via illegal border crossing in Akkar, taking this drawing security and judicial organs.

In the end, despite all the intimidation and attempts to raise the level of the various types of economic pressures, political and security on Damascus, has shown leadership in their ability to cope, through its policy in the weave alliances of regional and international, through the coherence of its institutions, especially the military, and through siege siege to exploit its geographical and economic dealings soprano with neighboring countries, which led to the refusal of most of the sanctions on Syria.

In Lebanon, has led the forces to address reluctance to establish a camp for "displaced Syrians" in Akkar to pressure Damascus to drop the "future" and its accessories for this requirement, we could see a decline similar regionally and internationally in the near future.

"I took part along with the group in killing a person from al-Shalkhi family and another person from Mutlak family.

"When I asked them why they want to know about the man, they told me that they wanted to assassinate him. The following day I was arrested," he concluded.


Syria deploys "Bastion" missile system along coastline

Syria is deploying the "Bastion" advanced missile system along its coast. There had been uncertainty over the contract to supply Syria with Russia's advanced mobile coastal defence system L-300P "Bastion" carrying "Yakhont" missiles. Few people believed in the possibility of supplying Damascus with these weapons after the launch of the "reset" between Russia and the U.S. in 2009 because the move could really upset the balance of power in the Eastern Mediterranean.

The U.S. and Israel have always been the main opponents of weapon deals between Russia and Syria, but their respective reactions to the supply of the "Bastion" system to Syria were different. When the U.S. traditionally expressed its indignation over the deal, Israel's reaction was almost unnoticeable except some general statements made by the Israeli foreign ministry, even though Israel should be the first to worry about upgrades in Syria's defence capability.

But, there was a reason for Israel's sluggish response to the supply of the "Bastion" system to Syria. It's related to the balance of power between Tel Aviv and Damascus, as well as the current situation in the region.

The outcome of a possible conflict between Israel and Syria would be mainly decided in the air and on the land. In this scenario, naval supremacy would be of secondary importance because regardless of Syria's hypothetical successes in attacks on the Israeli navy, they would do nothing to influence the out come. .

For Israel, the threat posed by Syria's Air Force, Ground Forces and air defence systems is seen as more significant. Consequently, the supply to Syria of air defence systems, fighter jets, advance armoured vehicles and weaponry for the ground forces is a cause for a greater worry for Israel. Particularly as there is a considerable chance that military equipment and the weaponry intended for the ground forces might fall into the hands of terrorists. This particularly applies to such weapons as shoulder fired anti-aircraft and antitank missiles, light armoured vehicles and firearms.

Theoretically, under the guise of terrorists Syrians themselves could launch attacks on Israel from the regions controlled by Syria. But one should note that in the current situation, Syria does not need any conflicts with Israel.

Why has Syria bought the "Bastion" system? Whose ships will be targeted by the "Yakhont" missiles? There is a clear answer to these questions: it's the Turkish navy. The relations between Syria and Turkey have worsened especially after Turkey joined the countries that imposed sanctions on Syria and put its troops stationed along the Syrian border on high alert. The probability of a conflict between the two countries has recently risen. Such a conflict would benefit the U.S. because it would pave the way for once again undermining the position of Iran, which is a partner of Syria. Thus, one cannot exclude the possibility of an attempt by the U.S. to further its interests in the region by using Turkey "cleanse" Syria.

Provided that Syria approaches the process of formation and training its personnel, the new missile systems could render any naval operation on Syria's coastline really difficult. Moreover, in the conditions of contemporary information society, even a small loss, say a sunken warship, would be sufficient to thwart the operation, particularly in the case of European powers or the U.S.
