Assad's 11-year-old son taunts: Bring it on, Obama!

Bashar al-Assad’s 11-year-old son is daring the United States to attack Syria in a Facebook rant that has been “liked” by other children of officials of the brutal Damascus regime.
“I just want them to attack sooo much,” Hafez Assad posted, “because I want them to make this huge mistake of beginning something that they don’t know the end of it . . .”
The oldest son of the Syrian dictator boasts of his father’s army, and compares it to Lebanon’s Hezbollah terrorist group that fought Israel to a draw in a fierce 2006 border war.
“What did Hezbollah have back then? Some street fighters and some small rockets and a pile of guns, but they had belief, in themselves and in their country, and that’s exactly what’s gonna happen to America if it chooses invasion, because they don’t know our land like we do, no one does.”
BOMBASTIC LITTLE BRAT: Bashar al-Assad’s 11-year-old son, Hafez, has been taunting President Obama and America via Facebook.
Hafez — who is about the same age as many of the 400-plus children killed in last week’s poison-gas attack — apparently posted the lengthy taunt, riddled with spelling and grammatical errors, on Wednesday.
It soon drew “likes” from Facebook accounts belonging to two children of his father’s deputy vice president and three kids of a former defense minister.
Another person who commented on the boy’s post hailed him as a future leader of Syria. “Like father like son! Well said future President!” the comment said.
Hafez dismissed the power of the US military: “They may have the best army in the world, maybe the best airplanes, ships, tanks than ours, but soldiers? No one has soldiers like the ones we do in Syria.”
Hafez described himself on Facebook as a graduate of a Montessori school in Damascus that his mother, Asma, boasted of in a Vogue profile of her two years ago, just before the anti-Assad revolt began.
Hafez was named after his grandfather, a brutal dictator who ruled Syria from 1971 to 2000 and crushed a rebellion in 1982 by killing as many as 40,000 Syrians.
The boy ended his post by predicting that his father would prevail in the Syrian civil war.
“Victory is ours in the end, no matter how much time it takes,” he wrote.
Yeah and i hope u get hit by a missile, if it doesn't kill u then u get paralyze and suffer for life.
I want US to attack, says Assad's 'son' on Facebook
Among all the voices arguing for an American attack on Syria, the most unusual may be that of Bashar al-Assad's 11-year-old son, Hafez.

"I just want them to attack sooo much," Hafez says on a Facebook page purporting to belong to him. "I want them to make this huge mistake of beginning something that they don't know the end of it."
It is impossible to verify whether the page is genuine. Nevertheless, its messages fit with what is known about the family of President Bashar al-Assad and his British-raised wife, Asma.
The "cover photo" is of his younger brother, Kareem, and Hafez, if it is him, writes in ungrammatical English and refers to the Montessori school where it is known he was educated. He also declares himself to be a graduate of Oxford University and a player for Barcelona football club, untruths that seem likely enough for a real 11-year-old but unlikely for someone wanting to create a spoof.
There are also comments on the site from other children who appear to be relatives, including the children of Assef Shawkat, the security chief and husband of President Assad's sister Boushra who was assassinated in a bombing last year.
If it is the real Hafez, named after Mr Assad's father and predecessor as leader of Syria, he shows an overweening confidence in Syria's ability to withstand American attack.
"I can expect that some people may comment that America is more powerful than us," he writes. "They will never fight and destroy these remnants and little bits of resistance, it's who we are, we were born to fight and resist, we will fight them everywhere."
By last night, the page had been taken down. But not before one friend had written: "Like father like son! Well said future President!"
