    It is a amazement how stupid,primitive idiot NBC sent to do interview with Dr. Assad. He surely make western journalist laughingstock in the World. Good, inteligent answers Dr.Assad.

      Bill Neely is the interviewer, I believe. He’s clearly “playing a role” here for his home audience. Work of his on UK television was good.

      Agreed on both points. President Dr. Assad intelligent and sincere, US interviewer stupid and meretricious. Like Dr. Assad’s description of the difference between Russian president and US president.

    Good interview given by Assad.

    It’s glaring how little regard western journalists actually have for Syrian people. Were it otherwise, the interviewer could not have grilled Assad for committing war crimes against the Syrian people. In the journalist’s mind there is no representation of the frequent suicide bombings, shellings and other attacks and atrocities committed by the terrorists. He plainly doesn’t understand at an emotional level the fact that there is a defensive war going on against terrorists that sees a lot of innocent Syrians killed, injured and deprived of basic necessities and a dignified life. Yet he claims Assad in this case is the emotionally numb and uncaring one.

    Its a “Western trick” to ask Assad questions like “What did Putin demand from him”. When you talk with a “sovereign” President you would say “what was asked ” ,not what “was demanded”. Just more of the anti-Assad propaganda from a Western MSM stooge.

    One aspect of the agenda of nbc clearly sticks out, namely:
    13 questions posed to Mr Assad ostensively about The Donald, as opposed to 3 about Shillary.
    Desperate for a soundbite to influence the election it seems.

    The patience of this man with these overgrown, spoiled and retarded children is beyond belief.

    Assad comes across as a head of a state, the jerk interviewing him comes across as a goon.
    Says a lot about the US and NBC as credible entities.

    I am stunned by the way the NBC moderator only brutally repeatedly and contemptuously attacked the elected President of Syria for the entire “interview”. Who answered every sword thrust, honestly and calmly, never faltering.

    NBC foully besmirched it’s once global, brilliant reputation. President Assad is clearly a great patriot the Syrian people are wise to have elected.

    Every time President Assad got the opportunity to explain that the US is in Syria criminally, never having been invited in, (the USA because it is unwanted, never invited, in Syria it is guilty of millions of war crimes) he stated it.. The clear logic behind each of his answers exposed the US questions as political sword thrusts simply designed to enrage the elected leader of Syria, to draw blood, not to create an informational international interview. Meaning the US interview was essentially a lie to publicly entrap an elected President…and increase the passionately manufactured hate of him.

    No blood was drawn so the interviewer declared President Assad’s calm only showed the watching world how basically inhuman he is, and then he began piling on leading questions as did ‘Assad morn the children killed, did he cry?’

    Please post this for a very long time. Should be debated on Peter Lavell’s Crosstalk. Will the Duran start another debate “show” or will the Saker?

    US propaganda was initially based on the history of Assad’s father. US propaganda is based on Hitlers propaganda. US brought to the US hundreds if not thousands of Nazi officers who would be able to pass on Nazi war accomplishments and tactics. The men were given homes they would be safe in and more than enough US dollars to live on for the rest of their lives.

    In return they were only asked for information, any and all. The officers told of the developing interactive brain chip technology that would be implanted in young women having babies without telling them as the fetuses were being delivered, Fetuses that would grow into autistic adults unable to dissent as adults do…unable to protect or replace themselves. The US took that technology and developed it in their own prisons for almost 60 years before trying it on the global public by EU permission of Maneul Barosso in 2015.

      “NBC foully besmirched it’s once global, brilliant reputation”

      For perceptive people, NBC’s reputation has always been brilliant alright–like a piece of dog shit spray painted in gold.

      I am surprised that this NBC “journalist” didn’t hysterically scream at President Assad over and over: “YOU ARE EVIL! YOU ARE EVIL! YOU ARE EVIL!”

      Such is the pathetic nature of the vaunted Free Press(tm).

    I got sick and tired of this interviewer going on and on and on about Trump. I gave up at 21 minutes.

    Clearly NBC is pro-Attila the Hen and trying every trick to corner Assad -even after Assad said multiple times he had no opinion of the candidates and, deeply upsetting to US media who feel everyone should be devoted to watching what is obviously phony drama to everyone else, cared even less until the installed winner was in power.

    He might just as well have said that “it doesn’t matter who you vote for, a paid and appointed politician will always get in”, but Assad is far more restrained and diplomatic than I could ever be.

      Yes,they are for Hillary. All the media in the US is (and it seems almost all the Worldwide MSM as well).I saw the NYT’s Sunday paper. And they alone carried 4-5 anti-Trump stories. You won’t find a pro-Trump story in the MSM. Which is the major reason I don’t see him able to win the election. Unless something “really horrible” happens before November. Or “major” crimes are exposed,beyond question linked to the the Clinton’s, before then. There will be no stopping her enthronement.Eight out of ten people get their opinions about the news from the MSM. And they are “owned” by the Trump-haters probably at the very least 90% of them ,maybe fully 100% of them.

      As to the “interview”. Assad it appears to me,is a man of charm, class,and tolerance. To have put up that long with a “reptile” like that reporter (without breaking his face) deserves a medal. I’m afraid I couldn’t do it. I’d have “punched his lights out” not far into the interview.

    NBC-Reporter is maybe not an idiot but completely brainwashed – his questions are pure accusations and his own assumptions. Who cares about his (usa) president and what usa-presidential nominees think. He never once mentioned Saudis/US supporting blood-thirsty mercenaries fighting in Syria/Libya… This NBC person should at least read couple of books instead of feeding himself with wrong info from NBC/CNN corporate media outlets. Even after this interview he still does not understand that his (US) president together with Saud-Quatar and co created ISIS and rest of the blood-thirsty groups of lunatics using different names but sharing same ideology.
