This month, 21WIRE.TV is on the ground in Syria reporting on a number of stories about this conflict, both past and present – uncovering truths that have been intentionally omitted from western mainstream media coverage from this war.
MAALOULA, SYRIA – From the September 2013 to April 2014, the residents of this historic Christian village of Maaloula in Syria were fighting for their very existence, as terrorists forces led by the Free Syrian Army (FSA) terrorized, kidnapped, and murdered locals, targeting Christians and historic holy sites, including a local convent, which included the kidnapping of nuns there. The FSA terrorists (supported by the US, Turkey, Jordan and others) were later joined by a nefarious conclave of ‘rebels’ led by terrorists Jabhat al Islamia, Jabat al Nusra, Ahrar al Sham, Al Farouk Brigades, the Turkistani Tahreer Army, Jaish al Islam (Zahran Allouch, Jabhat Tahreer al Qalamoun [Hamas], Alwiyat Ahfad al Rasoul (al Qaeda in Idlib), Syrian Martyrs’ Brigade and ISIS. After months of fighting and heavy losses sustained by the Syrian government and brave local defense forces in Maaloula, the village was finally liberated from terrorist occupation. There are many other important details and untold stories about this epic battle which we may touch on in a later possibly in more lengthy report. The following is a brief video report from 21WIRE correspondent Patrick Henningsen on the ground in Syria. WATCH:
