how was that a lie?
That's what Western media reported as well. The following for example, is from Boston Globe:
Pro-Syrian President Bashar Assad supporters gather to demonstrate their support for their president, in Damascus, Syria, on Tuesday March 29, 2011. Pledging allegiance for President Bashar Assad as he faces the biggest challenge to his 11-year rule, hundreds of thousands of Syrians gathered in a central Damascus square Tuesday, waving his pictures and chanting support.

DAMASCUS, Syria—Facing an extraordinary wave of popular dissent, Syrian President Bashar Assad fired his Cabinet on Tuesday and promised to end widely despised emergency laws -- concessions unlikely to appease protesters demanding sweeping reforms in one of the most hard-line nations in the Middle East.
On Tuesday, the Syrian government mobilized hundreds of thousands of supporters who poured into the streets of Damascus and across many parts of the country as the regime tried to show it has mass support.
"The people want Bashar Assad!" chanted supporters in a central Damascus square. Men, women and children gathered in front of a huge picture of Assad freshly put up on the Central Bank building.
Later in the day, Assad accepted the resignation of his Cabinet in a move designed to pacify the anti-government protesters. But the resignations will not affect Assad -- who holds the lion's share of power in the authoritarian regime -- and there are no real opposition figures or alternatives to the current leadership anyway.

ذوب اهن جان
این خبر درسته چون در تمام روزنامه های کویت هم همین خبر را در صفحه اول زده اند
همچنین بی بی سی هم گفت که ملیونها نفر به طرفداری بشار اسد درشهرهای مختلف سوریه تظاهرات کرده اند
ولی همانطور که من بارها گفته ام شرط نیست که اکثریت بر حق باشند
رژیم سوریه یک رژیم دیکتاتوری است
تنها دلیلی که این رژیم طرفدار دارد همان ضدیت علیه امریکا و اسرائیل است
والا اگر یک رژیمی بود که دستش در دست امریکا بود زودتر از رژیم حسنی مبارک و بن علی سقوط می کرد

Well it would be nice one look a bit further than Fars news....I have seen many news agencies saying thousands tens of thousands and this one below is from USA today that saying hundred of thousands.
DAMASCUS, Syria — Supporters of President Bashar Assad on Tuesday flooded the streets of downtown Damascus to show support for their leader following weeks of anti-government protests.

I am just amazed, as a IR supporter you have to agree with everything they support, including Syria? Are u a slave to this regime or you can think independently? Ashtar khan unless this is your job then I truly do not understand. I if it was millions, rest assured Asad would not have said

hehe great catch Zob Ahan jan!
hypocrites are revealed again!
I wonder why all these months in the past 2 yrs when the world was showing Green movement's massive protests, u were minimizing their numbers and that they are not the majority.and never called IR a dictatorship(even after their brutalities against protesters)!
hala ke nobate baradarane shekast khorde dar Syria shod, oza avaz shod?!lol

جنبش سبز در اکثریت نبودند
شاید هزاران نفر چند بار تظاهرات کردند ولی در اکثریت نبودند و دلیل ان هم این است که مجبور می شدند تظاهرات خود را روزهای برگذار کنند که رژیم تظاهرات برگذار میکند
اگر در اکثریت بودند رژیم از بین می رفت
مانند رژیم مصر و تونس یا حتی تظاهرات در یمن و بحرین
هیچ رژیمی نمی تواند جلوی اکثریتی که باید دها ملیون نفر باشند بایستد
هنوز هم می گویم رژیم اکثریت حداقل انهایی که به خیابانها می ایند و تظاهرات می کنند را دارا می باشد
شاید دها ملیون بی طرف باشند و لی طرفدار جنبش سبز نیستند
شما فکر می کنید اگراکثریت مردم ایران طرفداران موسوی و کروبی بودند رژیم این جرات را به خود می داد که انها را خانه نشین کند
یا دها طرفدار جنبش را زندانی و اعدام کند
به نظر من رسانه های غربی شما را فریب دادند
تا فکر کنید جنبش در اکثریت است و تظاهرات رژیم را کم رنگ نشان دادند
بروید روز بیست و دو بهمن بعد از انتخابات را ببینید که چطور رژیم ملیون ها نفر را به طرفداری خود به خیابانها کشید
ایا جنبش هم می تواند این کار را بکند
یا کرد ؟
خیر
متشکرم
hahah, talking about photoshop, have you checked Farsnews lately?!
Anytime there is a massive anti-govt protest picture, its photoshopped. Anytime there is a pro-govt protest(by force and reward), its "majority" movement!!lol
darset ra baladam janam!

مگر من میگویم فارس نیوزبهتر از انهاست !!!؟
من می گویم که جنبش در اکثریت نیست و این برای من ثابت شده
حالا شما نمی خواهید بارو کنید به خودتان ربط دارد
جنبش اگر در اکثریت بود می توانست تظاهرات راه بیاندازد و رژیم منفور را از بین ببرد ولی نمی تواند چون تنها در برخی از نقاط تهران طرفداران زیادی دارد
یک جنبش وقتی می تواند قدرت داشته باشد که در همه اقشار اکثریت را دارا باشد
جنبش سبز اینطور نیست
تنها اکثریتی را که دارد در بین کسانی هست که در خارج زندگی میکنند که این هم کاری از پیش نخواهد برد
زیرا نمی توانند مستقیما در روبروی رژیم قرار بگیرند
و همینطور این اکثریت دها گروه هستند و هر گروهی ده رای و یک پرچم خاص به خودشان دارند
مگر زمانی که جنبش در اوج قدرت بود در همین نیویورک سر اینکه چه پرچمی را در دست بگیرند زد و خورد نشد
یکی پرچم شیر و خورشید داشت دیگری پرچم جمهوری اسلامی سومی پرچم سه رنگ بدون ارم جمهوری اسلامی و شیر خورشید
اینها هنوز نیامده دارند سر پرچم دعوا می کنند
تازه این در خارج از ایران
در داخل وضعیت به مراتب بدتر است
گذشته از اینکه جنبش در اقلیت است شعار اصلی جنبش با شعار تظاهر کنندگان صدو هشتاد درجه در بسیاری از موارد فرق میکند
حتی روش های چگونه تظاهر کردن هم فرق می کند عده ای با تظاهرات مسالمت امیز موافق هستند عده ای نیستند عده ای
این باعث شد که جنبش روزبروز خودش را تضعیف کند
و به نظر من به خاطر نبود یک رهبر مقتدرو همچنین نداشت اکثریت مردمی بود که اینگونه متلاشی شد
بله جانم
Like I said in another post, there is a difference between being a diehard supporter, loving, liking, being a fan, critical, disliking, hating, and actively trying to overthrow an administration, government or an entire system. Unfortunately most of our friends on this site and in fact most Iranians don't know the difference and can't distinguish the difference between all the above scenarios and possibilities. Someone being critical of how Ahmadinejad is running the government does not necessarily mean that they hate the entire regime and system and even if they did it does not necessarily mean they want to see the entire system gone and even if they did it doesn't mean that they necessarily want it changed with the alternative that the seculars or the MKO or the nationalists or the monarchists have in mind.
The opposition movement can't seem to grasp these important differences. They think that just because a businessman in some party says "k.. naneyeh Ahmadinejad" for example, that it necessarily means that businessman wants or is willing to risk his life or even his current business to bring down the entire regime and system of government in Iran. No, that's not what it means. Asian people in general, and Middle Easterners in particular and Iranians especially like to bitch and criticize everything and everyone around them as though the entire world is indebted to them. If you don't believe me just pay attention to how you speak yourself and to the other Iranians around you who live outside of Iran. As the saying goes: "IRI keh jayeh khod dareh" even the Iranians living outside of Iran like to criticize the American or Canadian or British or French government or the government of whatever country they might be residing in. That's just the nature of Iranians. But one shouldn't necessarily assume that these Iranians are willing or even want to act against the governments of those countries. Bitching and criticizing is different than actually believing or acting on something.

Iranians complained about Qajars, Shah, and now the Islamic regime. Iranians want freedom. They want their regime to be civilized and part of the world. They want their regime to present their people. They want to be able to complain and demonstrate without getting raped, tortured, imprisoned and killed.
Ashtar you would have had more credibility if you had address the crimes of the regimes, etc.. and then voice the things you say. You could have at least one time decry them and say they should not be doing. Think about that. Think about t, that is a huge hint. Take that to your bosses because they did not figure that out and they can promote you. But wait the General plays that part. I get it now.
