Syrian governement has asked the syriac patriarch of antioch to change his residence from Damascus. Western powers are trying to overthrow President, Bashar Al assad of syria. This is becuase he took on the side of Russia and China. Due to this crisis and violence formulated by western powers, patriarch of antioch is in Germany now.
Now syriac orthodox church has decided to change its center from Damascus to Beirut. A large number of houses belonging to syriac church have been destroyed by the opposition groups backed by western powers such as us, france and other gulf nations.
The church in Homs which contained the holy relics of st mary, mother of god is already destroyed. Main churches in the Archdiocese of Aleppo have got a lot of damages.
 
The situation in Syria is indeed dreadful, yet this appears to be a degradation of the situation well beyond what has been reported here in the U.S.

Could you kindly provided some reference sources?
 
Syria is about to become a jihadi protectorate, right on the border of Israel, its revolution funded by US taxpayers.

I am not saying that you are incorrect, however, I had always heard the Catholic defense of the Dormition/Assumption is that there are no relics of the Theotokos, Mary, because we’d certainly have relics if she hadn’t been raised. Can I assume that the relics that you speak of is her sash or belt (whatever it’s called) that she gave to the Holy Apostle, Thomas?

Could be something else, I thought the belt was with the Orthodox.

edit:

Apparently it is also the part of the belt that is in Homs:

Look’s like the world now needs an alliance of countries to militarily oppose the US and NATO alliance if necessary. And if saying that is treason, so be it. I’d rather be called a traitor than to be closely allied with the vile anti-Christian nations of Saudi Arabia and Turkey.
