“Proof” Of a Conspiracy Against Syria
May 9, 2011 · Mustapha Hamoui
This video of Syrians demonstrating against the regime is held up as proof that there’s a conspiracy against Syria. It’s a “piece of theatre set in Lebanon” according to the author. The incriminating evidence? 2 cars in the video appear to have their number plates edited out.
Needless to say, the plates could have been removed to protect the people demonstrating (because unlike people’s faces, number plates can be looked up and their owners targeted), or the YouTube guy could have removed the plates himself to “prove” a point..
In other words, this “proof” is not admissible in the court of public opinion..
