Syria: BBC Media War Criminal James Reynolds Propaganda 'Story' On Propaganda In Syria. At The Same Time Ex-Pats Fly Into Qamashly For Their Vacations And To Support Their Country Against the Media War....i.e. People Like James Reynolds!

The BBC lied about the Houla Massacre to try and force NATO strikes on Syria. Shameless, they used an image stolen from Iraqi archives from the year 2003 claiming it to be the work of President Assad. Another media criminal reporter from the BBC, James Reynolds steps forward to report more propaganda to try and influence the world that the people of Syria prefer their country to be run by a bunch of terrorists. Assad has agreed on the Geneva peace plan , the opposition has not, they want all out war.  Let the people decide said Russia and China.  So what is the agenda of this jumped up zionist supporter ? His agenda is to try and  help the west by reporting garbage to massacre innocent people in Syria, that is his sole aim...what kind of person does that make him ?


Please scroll down and watch the two videos...families arriving at Qamashli airport and the video below where a Syrian citizen tells a BBC reporter ' You are telling lies about my country'


The view from inside Syria's propaganda machine



Syrian Information Minister Omran al-Zohbi speaks to reporters at the site of an attack on the pro-government al-Akhbariya's offices outside Damascus 
Syrian journalists at al-Akhbariya slavishly follow the government line, according to a reporter who defected from the channel
Many journalists who cover Syria struggle to convey the complexities of the country's conflict. But Syria's prominent al-Akhbariya network has no such problem.

It portrays a reasonably straightforward world: a brave Syrian government leads the fight against foreign-led terrorists.

Akhbariya is privately owned, but it obeys the instructions of the ruling Ba'ath Party. Every day it broadcasts the same message - the Syrian people are united in support of President Bashar al-Assad.

Now, one of the channel's former reporters reveals how the channel does it. Ghatan Sleiba, 33, escaped to Turkey at the end of June.
Managing messages



Ghatan Sleiba: "We produce the news according to what the channel's managers want"
Mr Sleiba doesn't have any footage of himself reporting for the channel, but he's keen to pass around a photo showing him holding an Akhbariya microphone.

"We talk to people before we interview them," Mr Sleiba says, continuing to use the present tense about his work as a reporter for the channel.

"Syrian citizens don't know anything - they don't know what to say - so we tell them what to say on TV in order to get the best report that we can. As a journalist my success is in getting my report to the channel. I do the reporting and I present it to the citizens - to the nation.

"For example, we tell the interviewees to tell us that they support Bashar al-Assad and they will always support him. And they accept this and say whatever I tell them. We do this to please the authorities who watch us."

Mr Sleiba explains how instructions are issued to reporters.

"The Ba'ath party sometimes appoints a representative to give orders on its behalf. They generally contact us through an information office. The committee tells us to go and take pictures of this particular event, to take pictures of the martyrs, and so on."

'Simple nation'

I asked if he had ever have to broadcast something that he knew to be untrue.
"We produce the news according to what the channel's managers want. If I produce a report that echoes their opinion, I get a bonus. But if it's based on my opinion without representing their view it won't get on air.

al-Akhbariya offices in Damascus after they were attacked by gunmen 
al-Akhbariya's offices in Damascus were recently attacked by gunmen, killing three
"For example Syria's energy minister says there is plenty of petrol available. But in reality there aren't enough supplies in the country. We journalists are liars to the nation. The people can't trust us. This is very frustrating."

On every subject, Mr Sleiba speaks with a high level of certainty. He is sure that the Syrian people believe what they see on the state-controlled media.

"The Syrian nation is a simple nation. They believe whoever smiles at them on TV and they believe whoever cries. God help the Syrian nation."

On the same day that Ghatan Sleiba arrived in Turkey, gunmen raided one of his former channel's offices near Damascus. They destroyed its studios and killed seven staff members. Akhbariya repeatedly airs graphic footage of this attack.

In the last 15 months, the conflict in Syria has meant extreme risk for opposition and foreign journalists. Now, broadcasting in support of the government has its cost.
