(Asharq Al-Awsat-UK) Mohammed Al Shafey - The Syrian National Council [SNC] claimed on Thursday that the Iranian regime has contributed to the suppression of Syrian protesters. SNC Executive Committee member Samir al-Nashar said, "The Iranians must correct their position because they have contributed to the suppression of the Syrian people by providing the Syrian regime with information, as well as logistical support." Al-Nashar claimed that "they [the Iranians] provided the Syrian regime with equipment to spy on Syrian political activists, benefiting from their experience in suppressing the Green Revolution....while they also participated in the planning of field operations against peaceful [Syrian] activists, and we therefore cannot deal with Iran unless it corrects its position with regards to the Syrian revolution."
