UN Human Rights Commission Voices Concern on Foreign Insurgents in Syria
Local Editor
A UN commission on human rights abuses in Syria has voiced concerns about the rising number of foreign insurgents in the country.
Chairman of the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria, Paulo Pinheiro said the presence of foreign-backed armed groups in Syria is taking the conflict to a worse place.
"Their presence can contribute to the radicalization in this conflict... it is particularly dangerous in an already very volatile conflict," Pinheiro told reporters at a news conference at the United Nations headquarters in New York on Tuesday.
"Civilian population is paying the price of" the violence in Syria, he stated, pointing out that children, women, and the elderly have been "suffering disproportionately" from the ongoing unrest in the country.
Pinheiro iterated he feared the foreign militants are not fighting for a democratic state in Syria as they claim, but for their own agendas.
Moreover, the commission revealed that the insurgents come from roughly 11 countries, and not only from Syria's neighbors, but from countries much further afield.

Human Rights as a Tool
The UN Human Rights Council is a weapon of evil colonial powers precisely against human rights, is also a Zionist agent who participates in the ‘predator’s game’ of persistently turning truth upside down, for conquest through agitation. Zionism is the arrogant social groupings’ original sin, based – throughout history - on legalistic worship of power at the expense of the spirit, based on self-conceit to be chosen to despise and defeat all other peoples, conquer and own the whole world. It seems to be all too similar to Nazism, the opposite pol. Why Zionism is fundamentally and diametrically opposed to Nationalism? Zionist proselytism is an age-long plotting network- construction to infest world’s entities, while Nationalism makes an open empathic appeal from the inner consciousness and soul of humanity to all human beings – wherever their fatherland is – to be united as mankind, sharing in common and prevail in life. Zionism’s power are thousands and thousands of agents while Nationalism’s - free nations’ - power is the whole mankind.- Related News
