The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights is a Tool of Western Propaganda
Since
Russia began military operations in Syria against the terrorist proxy
forces of NATO and the Gulf states, ubiquitous reports in the Western
media have emerged which claim that Russia has killed and targeted
civilians. Yet a large proportion of these news organisations that
apparently are at the pinnacle of journalism in the West, are publishing
reports that are often based on one or two very dubious (to say the
least) sources.
No
photographs, videos or any actual evidence is provided in a lot of
these articles. The presstitutes are so lazy these days they can’t even
be bothered manufacturing fake evidence most of the time, they just cite
a blog post from what may as well be some random guy on Twitter, and
then quote a few Western politicians who want to oust Assad from power
in Damascus; and they try and pass that off as professional news
gathering. It’s truly a new low for Western mainstream journalism.

One
of the most widely cited ‘organizations’ in the Western media
pertaining to the Syrian conflict is the Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights (SOHR). As Tony Cartalucci astutely noted back in 2012, in his
article: West’s Syrian Narrative Based on “Guy in British Apartment”, the Western media portrays the SOHR as a group of impartial and highly skilled professionals who are based in Syria:

“One
would believe this to be a giant sprawling organization with hundreds
of members working hard on the ground, documenting evidence in Syria
with photographs and video, while coordinating with foreign press to
transparently and objectively “observe” the “human rights” conditions in
Syria, as well as demonstrate their methodologies. Surely that is the
impression the Western media attempts to relay to its readers.”

As usual, the reality of this so-called organization is the complete inversion of the way the mainstream media portrays it. The SOHR was founded in 2006 by the enigmatic Rami Abdulrahman (also spelled Abdurrahman, but his real name is Ossama
Suleiman), who is also the director of the one-man group. He is the
only individual publicly listed as working for the SOHR, with even the New York Times admitting in a 2013 article that the SOHR is “virtually a one-man band”.
