Moderate and peaceful?[edit]

this page is filled with Saudi propaganda. The sheikh is one of the most radical and controversial figures of the opposition. I can't find how peaceful is a person who swears that once he comes to power will mince the Alawites and feed them to the dogs? --Rafy talk 08:40, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Meat Grinder[edit]

talk you are totally correct. The page was clearly was not accurate. Sheikh Adnan Aroor is a radical cleric in the Syrian opposition and has vowed to put the Alawites into a meat grinder, then feed them to the dogs. We will keep an eye on this page. Al-Arabiya describes him as a, "moderate Islamist" seeking justice, when he is indeed a violent extremist. Keep me posted if you can use me. --Eternalsleeper (talk) 03:24, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Economist out of context[edit]

This regarding this part of the article:

"According to The Economist: "Mr Arour’s views, once widely dismissed as extreme, now look closer to the mainstream, at least among the three-quarters of Syrians who are Sunni Muslims."[4]"

The comment is taken out of context from the Economist article. Whomever picked that specific line attempted to portray that most, if not all Syrian Sunnis share Al-Aroors opinion; which is untrue to say the least. Not all Syrian Sunni Muslims share Aroors views and neither does the Economist article suggest such thing, The article was merely suggesting that Aroor's fanbase/followers is growing, mainly amongst Syrian Sunnis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jumada (talk • contribs) 17:14, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not a native speaker of English but is there any other way to interpret this except that most Sunni Syrians are becoming so radicalised that they are now in line with al-Aroors once "extreme" views?--Kathovo talk 17:21, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
