Assad: We were Waiting for US Attack, We’ll Emerge Victorious

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said the Syrians are waiting for the US intervention, and promise to get out of this war victorious.

During his latest meeting with Syrian military leaders after speculations grew on a US military strike on allegations of chemical attack on Damascus, Assad said that “since the beginning of the crisis, and we were sure that the moment will come when our real enemy knocks his head into our country intervening,” adding that he knows well that the Syrian leaders’ morals are high and “you are on high readiness to face any aggression and protect homeland”.

But he ordered them to convey these high morals to their inferiors and to the Syrian citizens, according to Al-Akhbar newspaper.

“This is a historic confrontation that we will come out of victorious,” he ended up saying.
