The western-backed “Free Syrian Army” (FSA) has posted another video on their YouTube channel displaying a captured Syrian Arab Army (SAA) soldier from the Al-Ghaab Plains battle in the northwestern Hama; however, this video – contrary to their alleged “secular” military force – shows a different side to these men entrusted by the western regimes to combat the Syrian Government.

In fact, the video possesses no moral justification for the numerous sectarian insults that this alleged “freedom” fighter spews in the propaganda film – for the non-Arabic speakers, the word “Alawi” is used a number of times in the video, as this Al-Qaeda linked terrorist refers to 1st Lieutenant Yousif’s religious affiliation without hesitation or the presence of mind to dispel the sectarian allegations that have plagued their “democratic” state.

This is not the first time that the Free Syrian Army affiliates have propagated these videos: the aforementioned militant group offered no condolences or remorse for the sectarian execution of an Alawi soldier outside of Jisr Al-Shughour in May; so, it comes as no surprise that these “secular” militants would post such a video.

The Free Syrian Army has a long list of sectarian crimes that have been generally ignored by the west; these include the massacres at Ma’an (Hama: Alawis), Ishtabraq (Idlib: Alawis), Al-Duwayr (Homs: Christians), Aramo (Latakia: Armenian Christians and Alawis), and Hatla (Deir Ezzor: Shia).
