Planet Addounia (ironically Addounia is Arabic for The World)
After having my head melted my Addounia TV’s insane reporting of the Qatari film studios faking the Syrian revolution I wondered what they’d come up with next, imagining that even they’d never be able to conjure up anything more batshit-crazy than that.
Guess what? I was wrong.
It’s just got even weirder and is basically a montage of surreal non-sequiturs, baseless allegations and graphic imagery and with a dash of antisemitism added for good measure.

Meanwhile on planet Earth the UN Human Rights office has put the death toll in Syria at over 2,700 including over 100 children
The U.N. human rights office says security forces have killed at least 100 people in Syria during the past week.
U.N. Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights Kang Kyung-wha said Monday that the latest figures bring the death toll during months of unrest in Syria to more than 2,700 people, including at least 100 children.
Kang told the U.N. Human Rights Council that a team she led to investigate the crackdown on opposition protesters found “widespread or systematic human rights violations” including murder.
She says “the scale and nature of these acts may amount to crimes against humanity.”
I think this is a conservative estimate and the the actual number of people killed by the Syrian regime is much higher.
Lets hope that one day soon Assad is held to account for his crimes and the Syrians can finally rid themselves of nearly half a century of Ba’ath thuggery.
