Villaggio fire tales of Conspiracy
By MarcoNandoz-01 •
According to leaked documents reported by Al-Arabia News Channel the deadly Villaggio fire I which claimed the life of 19 people most of whom were daycare going little kids had been orchestrated and carried out by the Syrian government and its embassy here in Qatar.

that the public will take to this conspiracy theory just like that?
Duuuh!!!!
Al Arabiya is doing like begginers in media
non licensed "electricians" to build fast and cheap.
Hummm, seems very far fetched. Didn't it state the fire was from faulty wiring in a light? In a Nike store.... Maybe next they will say America did it, since that is an American store....
Peace be upon the victims, and I for one don't fall for conspiracy theory.
Accidents happen all the time by poor wiring done by non licensed "electricians" to build fast and cheap.
So sad.
The Documents may or may not be forged... but what is obvious is the winds of strife in near by countries is slowly blowing towards Qatar...
India & Pakistan are very familiar with this type of situation...lol
I find this sad. It's awful that these poor parents have to hear these conspiracy theories, rather than actually find out what happened to their children. :(
A little while ago, the building my husband's office is in,and where I am hanging around, had a false alarm. And I'll be a liar if I say the words "Syria" didn't pop into my head. Followed of course by something on the lines of "Oh My God I hope I'm not gonna fry!"
Thankfully though it was as I said a false alarm and alls well now! But yeah rumors are such that even if you claim not to believe may very just be sticking in your head..
TFS..
Proves our point. Many stories should be taken with a pinch of salt and lots of cynicism..
Britexpat here is a gem for you

Quality journalism at its very best :o)
. TB: you dare come near me and I'll cutcha up like a Halloween pumpkin! “Flings out his pocket knife” :P
I thought Al-Arabiya is quite a reliable source of informaton. They likely verified the information before reporting it.
If true, this also means that there are security issues there which may not be under control. KSA and Qatar are close brothers and allies and unlikely to undermine each other unnecessarily.
But as Britex said, it could well be to deflect from the real cause of the fire.
Then there are the imaginary friends every journalist has these days called "Sources"
"may", "might", "possibly"
Even if there was a plot to embarrass Qatar. How can we verify that this was the incident related to it.
i watch news channels every day. They use terms like "unverified" regularly. The idea is to get sensationlise and get attention. No-one notices an apology or retraction printed/shown later..
Would hurt Arabiya's reputation pretty bad if this were fake.Think they are supposed to double check their info...possibly through sources that have defected from the regime etc.
tinkerbell we are living in The Matrix, that is the real info :)
The mysterious foreign hand travelled 2400 kms for rescue when the real answers aren't nice to tell.
"Rumors will always circulate to fill the void of real information." - So true
The father of the triplets said the report was "disturbing, but not surprising."
"These sorts of rumours start spreading when the authorities in Qatar simply refuse to release any information to the families, public and media about what actually happened," he said today from San Francisco.
"Whether it is true or not I have no idea, [but] to stop these rumours the government needs to release the report.
"Rumors will always circulate to fill the void of real information."
It could happen
lol tinks . GM
zmax80 since Al Arabiya is Saudi owned, fair to assume that they show what Saudi wants to be shown.
my gas cylinder is over must b Syrian conspiracy
Theer is a theory that Al Aarabiya might be part owned and driven by Voice of America, which is an arm of the C IA :O(
Ain't he the guy wanting us all to co-exist in peace? Or are you suggesting it's a conspiracy?

You must know, brit. I'll stay away.
Stay away from the Ramada. Those Chinese are actually helping build "bonds" bewteen the communities.
The claim remains dubious as no specific plans were laid out in the first memo and no details are offered in the second. It also remains unclear whether there was even a Syrian ambassador in Qatar on Feb. 18, as the GCC announced on Feb. 7 that all Gulf states were expelling Syrian ambassadors.

No, it's China. Attack China! Start at the Ramada!
No Formatted Soul, Iran is the one to blame. They are helping Assad stay in power. Attack Iran!
Considering the present tensions in Syria it 'may' be easier to blame them for everything happening in this world..
LP no we can blame all fire incidents on Syria
WE 'may' never know the "truth".
In agreement with Brit...what he says may be true!
Couple of days back Al Arabiya "leaked" that the Turkish pilots were killed by Assad and didn't die in a plane crash.
They "may" just be trying to mount the pressure on Assad.
They use words like "may" , "might" to cover themselves. if i didn't know better, I "might" think that it was a ruse to deflect attention from the real cause of the fire and prosecution of culprits.
If it's not true, BG, then Al Arabia should be shut down!
It’s not that difficult to forge documents these days... and anyone using telegram in this era of hi-tech communications?
n ppl do believe in this crap ha,ha
Like: Expect Amazing, brit. Or: Expect Ablazing?
A bit far fetched to say the least. There are far easier ways of Embarrassing Qatar...
If Syria was really involved, wouldn't their Embassy be closed down?
I knew there was something fishy about all the fires suddenly happening all over Qatar.
I don't trust Al Arabiya much
If that's true then Qatar was assaulted on its own soil by a foreign force. To your weapons, guys. Oooops, to the weapons American protectors!
Yea seems pretty grim :(
Dear Lord...what will this mean for Syria and the Syrian people in Qatar now :P
