Борьба за "демократию" в Сирии во всей красе:
Ватикан официально подтвердил факт казни католического священника Франсуа Мюрада в монастыре Св.Антония в Гассании, Сирия.
Монастырь был захвачен боевиками Джабхат ан-Нусра.
Отцу Франсуа отрезали голову кухонным ножом, видео с казнью было помещено в интернете.
Выяснились антиреснейшие подробности:
Taking Extremism Too Far
While many of the Syrian al-Nusra members have gravitated to more moderate groups, the foreigners have joined Dawla, which has become the strongest group in the north.
But the most radical emir in the north has been Abu al-Banat, a former Russian officer from the Caucasus republic of Dagestan who converted to Islam and has gathered disciple-like supporters since then. Although he speaks only broken Arabic, he summarily declared al-Nusra and the other jihadists groups to be "kafirs," or infidels, because they refused to submit to his command.
In the spring, the self-proclaimed emir from Atmeh went with his supporters to the village of Mashad Ruhin, nine kilometers away, which he then sealed off with armed guards and transformed into his personal emirate.
Al-Banat had three men beheaded in the village square in April. In a video of the brutal execution, which appeared online in the summer, an unkempt man surrounded by a gawking crowd, including children, speaks into the camera in broken Arabic. The man is Abu al-Banat. Three bound men cower on the ground next to him. An assistant slowly cuts off the head of one of the men and then proceeds to the second man. Then he holds the severed head up to the camera like a trophy.
Oddly enough, the recently published video appeared first on Syria Tube. The PR site for the Syrian regime claimed that the beheading victims were three Christian priests who had been killed in late June in the town of Rassania. The story was promptly disseminated by the Catholic news agency Agenzia Fides, which has a history of broadcasting made-up horror stories.
What the video actually depicts is the murder of alleged Assad loyalists in al-Banat's camp in April, although who the three men were and what offences they committed remains unclear. As a former member of his group recalls, al-Banat "was both judge and accuser in one." The villagers were horrified, says a man from a nearby town. "No matter what the three men did, people aren't lambs to be slaughtered." The executions triggered an exodus, with only about 70 supporters remaining behind.
Apparently the other jihadists unanimously agreed that the beheadings had gone too far, and on the night of June 28, there was a rare instance of collaboration. A Chechen Dawla commander and a group of heavily armed men invaded Mashad Ruhin and declared al-Banat's reign of terror over. His remaining supporters surrendered without resistance, and al-Banat and two aides were taken away. All access routes had been sealed off during the attack by checkpoints of the FSA to prevent other jihadists from coming to the emir's aid -- but no one came.
The leaderless remnants of al-Banat's jihadist group reportedly packed their bags in the coming days and left the village.

Т.е. некий россиянский мент из Дагестана едет в Сирию, объявляет себя эмиром, всех прочих, включая джихадистов из Ан-Нусры зовет кяфирами. После гибели отца Франсуа видео с обезглавливанием ВНЕЗАПНО оказывается на пропагандистском асадовском канале Syria Tube. В итоге от бойкой деятельности россиянского офицера фигеют даже джихадисты и громят его группировку, в которой после художеств, призванных изображать звериный лик сирийской оппозиции, осталось всего 70 человек, и на помощь к которой никто не приходит. А между тем отдельные непатриотичные граждане смеют рассказывать, что Россия не помогает братскому сирийскому лидеру!
