Let us talk about the ongoing war in Syria. Is it an urban warfare? Is it a war between two equivalent forces? We all know that there is no balance of powers.
We saw in different occasions how to arm small groups to form a "resistance". To arm a "resistance" doesn't necessary mean to give them tanks or heavy weapons like what happened in Libya
However you give them weapons, so they can defend themselves and exhaust the army. The goal is to drive the government forces outside the cities to the villages.
Let me tell you some "facts": The first fact: A man from Daraa came to me here in the center, he was injured. They all urged us to supply them with weapons.
They stored weapons at that time in "Al-Omary" mosque, despite the objections from the blind sheikh. That sheikh refused the idea of using force
After that I called "Riyad Al-Asa3d". He told me that about 17 thousand joined him, and he wants to engage in fight with the Syrian National Army.
I said "No" and told him that we refuse the idea, I mean that our center refuses the idea, because our center is independent.
I told him that we in the center refuse the idea. You have to leave and join the opposition outside Syria. He asked me: What opposition do you mean?
The anchor asking: So, what changed now?
The Saudi: Just a minute, let me first finish. He asked me: What opposition do you mean? I said: Join the opposition that is being sponsored and supported by Turkey, and then you will be protected by a state.
I told him: "In Turkey you can form an army that will be the substitute for the Syrian National army, this substitute can fill the vacuum, so we avoid what happened in Iraq when the army was dissolved."
He actually did what I told him; he left to Turkey and started the war against the government.
He has now a new plan to move the fight to the villages away from the big cities.
The operation is not as some one may think, a matter of direct fight. It is absolutely not. It is an urban warfare, you hit and run so they can't catch you.
