Det här är ett klipp från ett hotell i Saudiarabien, där det för inte alltför längesedan hölls en auktion - men man auktionerade inte ut begagnade möbler eller dyrbara konstföremål - det man saluförde var mänskliga kroppar, redo att utföra självmordsattentat. I klippet nedan skildras hur en far säljer sin son:
UPPDATERING: En läsare uppmärksammade mig om en av kommentarerna till YouTube-klippet som påpekar att översättningen är fel, att det inte är någon "självmordsmarknad" utan en insamling för motståndsrörelsen i Syrien. Själv kan jag inte arabiska och kan således inte bedöma översättningens korrekthet eller bristande sådan. Låter tills vidare det här inlägget vara kvar, men om det framkommer att översättningen är påhittad så tar jag bort det.

I have a different take on what really happened here and I urge you to check this out with an arab speaking person you trust before giving your support to this type of propaganda.
The following is a quote from the same video comments section and I believe this to be the more correct take on what actually is going on here, but please don't take my word for it, look in to it yourself and please stop spreading the video in the meantime. Otherwise I have nothing to complain on your site always interresting and up to date. And don't worry about the video, everyone makes misstakes sometimes.

"1. At 7 seconds the man doesn't say 'TAKFEER', he says 'TAKBEER' or 'TAKBIR'. Go and google what it means.
2. The Father of the "Suicide bomber" is actually the father of Syrian Activist Khaled Abu Salah. I haven't heard of Khaled Abu Salah blowing himself up.
3. The segment from 20 to 27 seconds is translated incorrectly, what he actually says is "mercy on the souls of the martyrs and healing to the wounded
4. This event was a fundraiser for the people of Baba Amr neighborhood of Homs, who were getting shelled day and night by Assad 's army.
Here is a link to the other videos this guy has uploaded, he is clearly a pro Assad government supporter so his videos should be at least verified by some independent sources before being published as truth.

Thanks a lot! I just stumbled over the video and did not look into it. I don´t speak arabic so I cant verify or deny the translation in that clip.
I understood though that the clip were used for pro-Bashir-propaganda, but my own intention was not to spread such things, only to highlight the absurd in the sucide-market event. But if the translation is fake and it really is not a market like that, then there obviously is no reason to keep it posted. I´ll wait a couple of days to see if anyone else can verify or denounce the translation. If the translation is fake ill remove the post.
Meanwhile Ill update with a notice about the possiblity of a fake translation.
Thanks
I am an arabic speaking man lives in Europe. I don't believe in the western propaganda on what they call the arabic spring.
Anyway after listening many times to the video I couldn't hear anything about a man selling his son. The man who was speaking he only said "the mercy for the martyrs and the good health "shafa" to the wounded".
This is a common Arabic and Islamic way to begin a speech in favor for the wounded and dead in war.
I do not have any doubt about that some certain regimes are supporting the so called activists in Syria but they don't need to collect money in this way. They have their own ways and places that nobody can suspect or notice and definitely not in fancy hotels.
