The Secret Documents

An Arab satellite news TV channel recently revealed a number of secret documents leaked from inside the Syrian intelligence apparatuses. These documents exposed the crimes the regime committed inside and outside of Syria, and also how cheap its lies were.

The Secret Documents

By Tarif Youssef Agha

A short time ago, the e-mail messages were leaked

So we knew that the president is also called “The Duck”

And that he is a lion towards his people

But with the harem of the Sultan, he is just a cat

We also learned that Shahrayar is still listening to Shahrazad

And that his wife is therefore about to have a heart attack

But today, the secret documents are leaked

So now we know what kind of regime he is running

Persians, Russians, Chinese and Zionists

They assigned him as a watcher, called him a president and gave him an axe

He used it to slaughter the people and destroy the country

He used the army, the thugs and the police

He ordered assassinations and planned for explosions

He even took that to his neighboring countries

He guaranteed to Israel the security of its border

Then withdrew his army from there to use it to smash his people

He captured the two (Turkish) pilots alive, then ordered them dead

And made it look like they drowned

He transformed the homeland into a jungle

Where the law is not worth the paper it is written on, nor is the ink

He did not spare any serpent that he did not ally with

And he did not leave a donkey he did not make his cheerleader

This regime does not need documents to be proven guilty

As the smoke always tells you who is using the fire
