Obama said, in his communication between himself and the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, that he will not abandon his support of the opposition in Syria. In doing so he extended the soft speaking to which we are accustomed and to which the Syrian revolution has become accustomed over two and a half years. It flayed the skin of the Syrian people; sank in their blood, their pain and their tragedies. It displaced their children and their women and killed their youth. It destroyed their towns, their economies, their civilizations, their monuments and everything they had. It was possible for Obama and his allies to end this tragedy in less than a few months by helping the rebels; they are advocates of the democracy and the self-determination to whom they [Obama and his allies] do not respond except on a whim.
It was within their power to end this tragedy in a few months if they supported the revolution or kept their promises toward it. However, they continued with lies and prevarications from England to France to America. They said today that they will arm the opposition tomorrow, switching what they said. They talk about their inability to arm the opposition, fearing they would be sending weapons to extremists or because their parliaments are opposed and they cannot agree or other flimsy excuses. However, the thing is clear and obvious. It is that they do not want to send help to the Syrian revolution, for some unknown reason. It means an extension of suffering and pain for the Syrian people, who are exposed to the most lethal pain. Thus, I have exposed your tricks and your lies. So, why do they continue those lies and [why] are they not ashamed?
قال اوباما في اتصال بينه وبين خادم الحرمين الشريفين إنه لن يتخلى عن مساندة المعارضة في سوريا، قال ذلك مواصلا معسول الكلام الذي تعودناه وتعودته الثورة السورية منذ عامين ونصف سلخت من اجساد أهل سوريا وغاصت في دمهم وآلامهم ومآسيهم وشردت اطفالهم ونساءهم وقتلت شبابهم ودمرت بلدانهم واقتصادهم وآثارهم وحضارتهم وكل ما يملكون، وكان بإمكان اوباما وحلفاؤه ان ينهون هذه المأساة في أقل من عدة أشهر يساندون فيها الثوار وهم دعاة الديمقراطية وتقرير المصير الذي لا يستجيبون له الا اذا كان على هواهم.
كان بإمكانهم ان ينهوا هذه المأساة في أشهر قليلة لو انهم ساندوا الثورة او وفوا بوعودهم تجاهها، لكنهم ظلوا يواصلون الكذب والمراوغة من بريطانيا الى فرنسا الى أمريكا، فهم يقولون اليوم انهم سيسلحون المعارضة وفي الغد يبدلون ما قالوه، ويتحدثون عن عدم قدرتهم على تسيلح المعارضة خوفا من ذهاب الأسلحة الى المتطرفين او لأن برلماناتهم تعترض ولا توافق او غير ذلك من الأعذار الواهية، بينما الأمر واضح ومفضوح، وهو انهم لا يريدون أصلا مساعدة الثورة السورية، لحاجة في نفس يعقوب، وهو ما يعني المزيد من المعاناة والآلام للشعب السوري الذي تعرض لأشد الآلام فتكا، لقد انكشفت لعبتكم وأكاذيبكم فلِمَ تواصلون هذه الأكاذيب ولا تخجلون؟

The Ukrainian people deserve more than our prayers and the guilty abstentions. The best course of action would be to acknowledge our past mistakes, commit to restoring respect for the rule of law and act to correct the damage.
