The Syrian foreign minister claimed that the government is fighting a war against terrorists with al-Qaida ties eating human hearts and dismembering people while they are still alive. In the UN General Assembly in New York, Walid al-Moallem said the terrorists send the dismembered limbs of the people they have taken hostage and send them to their families.

The foreign minister of Syria also accused the U.S., UK and France for censoring the name of the "real" suspects responsible for the chemical weapons attack in Syria last August. Mr al-Moallem blamed the attacks on the opposition.

In the same forum, U.S. President Barack Obama said it was Syrian President Bashad al-Assad's regime that attacked and killed innocent civilians, using chemical weapons. The chemical weapons attack killed hundreds in Damascus which prompted the U.S. to propose a military strike against Syria.

After the threat of a military strike was made known, the Assad regime agreed to surrender its chemical weapons stockpile. On Sept 27, the UN Security Council unanimously voted for the resolution to oblige Syria to comply, based on the plan prepared by the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. The resolution marked the end of the UN's paralysis over the Syrian crisis.

When the UN spokesperson Martin Nesirky was asked why the UN had not assigned blame for the chemical weapons attacks, he said that the UN inspectors were only tasked to determine if chemical weapons were used.

The Assad regime opposition group currently in exile called the Syrian foreign minister's speech as an attempt to divert the world's attention from Assad's totalitarian regime and attacks against Syrians.

The Syrian National Coalition (SNC) said the minister had only denied the Assad regime's involvement in creating the Syrian crisis.

The Syrian civil war has been going on for two and a half years and has claimed the lives of over 100,000 people. The opposition claimed that the Assad regime has abandoned its duty to protect the people.

Mr al-Moallem claimed that those who were fighting against the regime are terrorists, and they had access to chemical weapons. He failed to give specific names during his speech.

The foreign minister believes that all offshoots of al-Qaida were "fighting in the civil war." He accused other countries for refusing to recognise the acts of murder and manslaughter.
